Chapter 435

Waverly raised her brows subtly upon hearing that.

Waverly raised her brows subtly upon hearing that.

She was sensitive enough to make out the resentment in her daughter's voice.

“What do you want, then, Zozo? You should just give up now that there's nothing else you can do. We can go back to Lostaria, and I will find you a good suitor.”

Zoey smirked at the suggestion.

With the seed of suspicion sown, Zoey would have too much to worry about as long as Bailey was still alive, so the only way out for her was to completely eliminate Bailey if she wanted to remain the daughter of the Shurmer family for the rest of her life.

That b*tch has to die.

“Granddad's death anniversary is coming soon, so why don't we stay back until we visit his grave? I'll go back with you to Lostaria after that.”

Waverly heaved a sigh of relief, glad that Zoey could look at the bright side of things.

She did not wish to see her daughter, whom the Shurmer family had put their heart and soul into raising, ruined because of a man who did not even care about her.

“I am glad you can take it with an open heart. You will still be the same Zoey Shurmer everyone looks up to back in Lostaria. What happened in Hallsbay will not affect your status in the upper-class society in Lostaria.”

Zoey clenched her fists as a spiteful thought flitted through her mind. I don't have much time left, so I will have to make full use of it to get rid of her.

Over in the CEO's office at Luther Group's headquarters, Bailey had just entered the room with a pile of documents when Artemis shot up from his chair and strode over to help her.

“Seriously? Can't you just chill a little? You should ask the secretary to do this,” he said.

The man had been on tenterhooks the whole morning because Bailey had been busying herself despite her pregnancy.
