The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 545

"Charles deserved to die. He really did. Charlene, now that Charles is dead, you can finally change your name," Yvette said and burst into laughter.

Charlene stepped out from the house, her expression tangled with emotions.

"Screw you." Elijah couldn't hold it any longer. He stormed forward and threw a punch straight at Yvette.

A sharp cry tore through the air.

"Grandma!"

Yvette was knocked to the ground by Elijah's punch. Charlene screamed and rushed to her side in a panic.

"Jessy," Marcus called out quietly.

Jessy immediately stepped forward with a medical kit in hand. "Yes, Mr. Holden."

She was clearly nervous as she approached and began checking Yvette's condition.

Elijah stood nearby, his tall, broad frame towering over them. That punch he threw just now could have killed Yvette if he hadn't held back.

After all, Marcus had said clearly that Yvette couldn't be allowed to die just yet. Letting her die so easily would have been too merciful.

Jessy had been personally brought there by Elijah. She had once impersonated Dr. Elim, but she was indeed a medical student. Letting her treat Yvette was the most fitting punishment.

Before coming, Jessy had already learned the truth. Lucy was her biological mother, and she knew what Lucy had gone through all those years ago.

As Jessy looked down at Yvette while tending to her wounds, she couldn't hold back. Her nails dug deep into Yvette's wrist.

"You old witch. You're the one who killed my mother." She gritted her teeth, lowering her voice to a threatening whisper. "You filthy hag. Just wait."

Only Yvette, Charlene heard her words. After she finished, Jessy quietly packed up the medical kit and stepped aside.

"Mr. Holden, I'm finished."

"Take them away," Marcus ordered as he turned and walked out.

Elijah stepped forward and grabbed both women, one in each hand, giving them no chance to react or resist.

Jessy followed behind them respectfully, carrying her medical kit.
