The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 561 The Most Obedient Dog Is Also the One That Bites the Hardest

The hatred in Lina's eyes was completely undisguised as she stared straight at Yvette.

Tears streamed down Yvette's face. The painkiller had taken effect, so her body no longer hurt-but her heart did.

Tears falling, Yvette spoke with a trembling voice. "I'm your mother."

"So what?" Lina reached out and clutched her throat. "You ruined me and Charlene both, so you deserve to die. I never wanted to be your daughter. I never wanted to come out of your womb. I never wanted to be raised by someone who filled me with hatred.

"I worked so hard to raise Charlene into a normal person, and now you're dragging her into this too. Have you ever seen me as your daughter? Have you ever seen her as your granddaughter?"

"Yvette, answer me! Did you ever see us as human beings?

"If you don't tell me where Megan is today, I'll kill you! And once you're dead, I'll find Megan myself. I won't let anything happen to Charlene-never!"

Yvette was coughing and gasping for breath, her throat tightening beneath Lina's grip.

"Yvette, speak up. Tell me!"

Lina's eyes were bloodshot, her face twisted with rage, and her voice rising by the second. "Tell me!"

Yvette's coughing grew worse. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head, and she looked like she was on the verge of suffocating.

Lina released her throat and landed a harsh slap across Yvette's face.

"Why won't you say it? You're already dying from a terminal illness, so why won't you let me and Charlene live in peace?"

Lina buried her face in her hands and broke down crying. "You already sacrificed me. What's so wrong about me wanting to protect my own daughter? If you never loved me, fine—but why hurt Charlene?
