The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 124

Hearing the noise, Shakira looked over to see Walter standing on the second-floor railing, gazing down at her with a cool and handsome expression.

Shakira's heart skipped a beat. Walter sure got news quickly... "I in explain this," Shakira said, jogging up the spiral staircase, slightly out of breath when she stood before Walter.

Walter's voice was cold. "There's no need to explain to me; we're not that close.

Shakira pouted, not giving Walter any face. "I don't believe you. If you didn't want to hear my explanation, you wouldn't have waited here for me." Walter was silent.

Brian, standing nearby, couldn't help but cough and quietly walked away.

Shakira squatted down slightly, her gaze was clear, and her tone was calmer and more composed than ever. "You've looked into everything about my past, how I was at the Smith residence and the Nelson residence; you know it best. I've told you before, I don't need anyone to interfere in these matters; I'll handle them myself."

Walter gazed at her with a deep stare. "Buying out Lago's company, is that your revenge?"

Shakira did not hide anything; she was completely open. "I want him to lose everything." Her eyes shone with firm determination.

Walter was silent for a moment. Ever since the first day Shakira appeared before him, he knew she was different from ordinary women.

Her face revealed many emotions, but he always felt she was hiding more inside. There were many secrets about her that he couldn't uncover.

Walter never cared about this before. As long as she wasn't a threat to him, it didn't matter. She was just a way to kill time; there was no need to invest any effort in her. But now, his thoughts seemed to be shifting.

He wanted to know her likes, her dislikes, and more about who she really was. Like right now, she had made a massive move without his knowledge, and he learned about it only through others.

But at the same time, he was sure he didn't want to control these feelings. So, as Shakira
