The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1840

Inside a villa, a young woman lay sprawled across a table, hugging a wooden doll tightly.

"Ever since I found you, my luck has been unbelievable. I was thinking about convincing my dad to invest in a drama so that I could star as the female lead. But it turns out I didn't even need to! I guess my talent finally got recognized by the director."

Not long ago, she had been cast as the second female lead in a drama. Someone else had already secured the lead role.

Frustrated, she had absentmindedly muttered to the doll, "If only something happened to the lead actress so she couldn't take the role. Then, I could step in as the main character."

And then, just a day before filming began, the lead actress got into a car accident. She wasn't seriously injured, but her face was scratched—badly enough to leave scars.

Just like that, the lead role became hers.

When she heard the news, she couldn't stop smiling. She had only made an offhand comment, but somehow, it had actually come true.

Excited, she clutched the doll again. "I wish for my career to skyrocket, for my net worth to double, and for awards to come pouring in! Oh! And I want to be on a reality show with Tobias and star in a movie with Rowan!"

Of course, she didn't really expect anything to happen—saying it out loud didn't cost her anything.

She placed the doll in the living room and went to bed.

That night, while she slept, the wooden doll appeared at her bedside. In the darkness, its lips curled into a sinister smile. Then, it exhaled a breath toward the sleeping woman.

She simply turned over in her sleep, unaware of anything.

The wooden doll, Gabby, had taken a serious hit last time and had spent a long time recovering. If it hadn't been for that man suddenly interfering, its plans would have already come to fruition.

Gabby's head creaked as it twisted slightly. "Don't take too long. This is crucial to successfully seizing Cascadia's fortune."

The man bowed his head. "Yes, my lord."

"Go."

Gabby returned to the table, and the man quietly exited, as if nothing had ever happened.

Alone again, Gabby murmured, "Once I find the perfect body, making you kneel before me will be effortless. Hahaha!"

Its eerie laughter filled the room, but the woman remained lost in her dreams, completely unaware.
