Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 631

Chapter 631

Cora seemed to have an idea and said to Jagger, “Dear, if there’s really no other way, we should use the same method as last time to get Stella out.”

Jagger’s already cunning face lit up with a sly smile.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, “Will Lydia agree this time?”

They still didn’t know that Lydia had already left the Walton family.

The butler was about to inform them when Cora sharply interjected,

“Whether she agrees or not, she has to. Given her birth mother’s status, she’s already enjoyed enough luxury here. It’s the greatest gift we could give her.

No need to think further. Butler, go get Lydia. We’ll take her to the Dark Web Division for an exchange.

“Stella has never suffered, but Lydia has been to the Dark Web Division twice already. One more time won’t hurt. Hurry up and bring her down

Only after Cora finished speaking did the butler have a chance to report, “Sir, Madam, Lydia is not in her room.

The maid discovered this morning that the room was empty, and the welded window had been opened. There was a knife labeled ‘cuts through iron like mud left behind.

“I tested it, and it’s indeed very sharp. It seems she used it to escape through the window.

“Also, Mr. Walton’s people reported that Lydia has likely defected to Cherise. I was told to inform you.”

“What?” Jagger and Cora were shocked.

Cora cursed, “That ungrateful wretch! It seems like her genes are showing. If Tristan had married a better woman, how could he have such an ungrateful child!

“Forget her for now. Let’s go to the Dark Web Division and demand Morris hand over Stella.”

Unaware of the curses, Lydia had no idea what had happened, but she didn’t care anymore.

Back at Prosperous City.

When Claire returned home, Cherise, Crow, Hank, and Lydia were sitting on the couch, staring at the door.

Seeing Claire, Hank stood up and called out, “Hey, Mom! Why are you so late? We’ve been back for over two hours. Didn’t expect Dad’s helicopter to be so slow. Did you get a lot done?”

Cherise, sitting on the couch, smiled, “Mom, is there something you need to tell us?”

Claire’s already relaxed mood tensed up again, thinking how perceptive Cherise was.

She hesitated, feeling a bit shy.

Finally, deciding to be straightforward, she said, “Well, there is a bit of big news.”

Cherise raised an eyebrow

Sure enough, the next second, Claire, with a shy smile, said, “Arthur and I have decided to give it a try and be together?

“Ab–hat

“Congratulations!”

*I knew you would end up together”

“Claire, congrats on finding love again!”

The villa was filled with joy and laughter.

Lydia, standing behind them, felt somewhat out of place.

She envied the harmonious atmosphere, free of deceit and disdain, filled only with lightheartedness and laughter.

After a moment, she softly said, “Mrs. Chivers, I won’t disturb you any longer. I’ll be leaving now,” Without waiting for a response, she turned to leave.

As she reached the door, Cherise called out, “Wait!” Her voice wasn’t loud, but it was enough to stop Lydia in her tracks.

The Dark Web Division was a forbidden area, and the guards naturally did not allow them to enter.
