Chapter 240
Elaine’s idea of “meeting” these people turned out to be as straightforward and brutal as it sounded. She wasted no time and went straight for a confrontation with the home–wrecker and her philandering partner.
After a brief conversation with Book Elf. they confirmed their plan they were going to take on the home–wrecker and the unfaithful man
Elaine was deemed to teach them a lesson.
Book Eif asked, “Elaine, are you treating this like a side quest?”
Although Elame had never referred to her life as a mission, her progress was undeniable–she had already completed 70 of her tasks
Now, she only needed to deal with Jepson, Calvin, and that mysterious figure. Travis. Once those three were taken care of, the main mission would be nearly complete
As for Bianca, the novel’s female lead, she was already on the losing side.
Elaine replied, “I don’t like it when you refer to my life as a mission, but confronting that cheating man and the home–wrecker isn’t a side quest Don’t forget, their bastard child is involved with Bianca”
She paused, eyes narrowing “Besides, these three disgusted my future husband, my mother–in–law, and my grandparents. Punishing Dir, right?”
Book Elfconsidered this. “Thats a fair point”
11 was clear Flaine was going after this family, no matter what
them is only
The next morning, the Morgan family sat around the breakfast table. Benjamin mook a sip of coffee, then casually said. That person called me this
As soon as the words left his mouth, the atmosphere grew tense. “That person” was, of course, Harvey Morgan.
Grace put down her cup, her lips curling into a sneer. “The still has the nerve to call?”
Benjamin sighed. “What’s ich to say! Hexonly calling because he wants to come back and take the family fortune for that bastard child of his. Hes counting on the fact that we’ve only ever had him as our son, and well eventually soften and let him back in. After swearing he’d never come back, now he’s making a grand retum to Hosgland. Shameless
Grace scoffed incredulously. Td rather donate everything to the country than give a single cent to those two useless scoundrels. It’s not that I don’t want a son, but at least I have two good grandsons now–and a lovely daughter–in–law and granddaughter–in–law. If they think they can manipulate ine, they’re sorely mistaken”
Abbot, who had been quietly listening, felt deeply touched. While he could never compare to Kingsley, his grandmother still thought well of him………
Benjamin nodded in agreement. “Excly”
Elaine Yeats asked curiously, “Grandpa, what did he say to you on the phone?”
Benjamin replied. “He was guilt–tripping me, saying our grandson had grown up without seeing him, and that he wanted to bring that bastard back to recognize the family and make up for the years he’d missed. I told him to stay away.
“If they stay here, our whole family will never have peace. Y
Your grandmother and I would like to live a few more year in prace
Elaine chuckled at her grandfather’s bluntness.
Benjamin had even started using internet slang lately, which amused her further
“That bastard is in such a hurry to ‘reconnect with the family‘ because he probably just wants Bianca’s money,” she mused.
Abbot grimaced “Makes me want to puke”
Grace added coldly. “They really have no shame”
Benjamin Leaned back, clearly resolute. “I’ve made it clear–1 rejected him. When he left, he swore he’d never regret it, choosing that woman over ws. He even hurt your grandmother
saba back in! He’s got another thing coming As for that bastard child, the Morgan family will never recognize him. My grandumu are only Liyan and Albor“
bern listening quietly, was deeply moved. Her in laws had never accepted the home–wrecker or the bustand, and she was grateful

Chapter 210
Elaine took it all in, then made her way to Shirley’s r
TOOM
After some conversation, Elaine finally understood. The home–wrecker, Melany, had a high–minded, almost angelic image–no money, no need for recognition—just following Harvey out of kive. Harvey, apparently, was completely enchanted by her.
Elaine smirked. “Mom, what if we hit back?“.
Shirley, intrigued, asked, “How!”
Elaine’s eyes gleamed with determination. “Don’t worry. I’ll have someone investigate that family first. When the time is right, I’ll let you know. You can unleash your anger however you want.”
Elaine was set on giving that despicable man and woman a lesson they wouldn’t forget
Shirley, seeing her daughter’s resolve, nodded. “Miriglu.”
Even though the no longer loved Harvey, she couldn’t forgive the home–wrecker for tearing her family apart and then calling to provoke her. She had endured enough. Now, it was her turn for retribution
At a actel in Lento. Harvey, Dangelo, and Melany Rivers, the trio dressed to the nines, strolled into the five–star hotel with an air of undeniable elegance.
As they entered, the hotel staff unmediately assumed they were distinguished guests of high social standing. The subtle superiority they exuded only reinforced the impression that they hailed from one of Lento’s prestigious families.
Naturally, the manager himself came over to personally attend to them.
Melany was pleased, a smile gracing her lips as she took in the attention.
She carried herself like a goddess, with a grace that demanded to be adored, her aura of aloofness and pride effortlessly making every man around her fall into line
What no one knew was that Melany was anything but the angelic figure she appeared to be–she was, in reality, a conniving home–wrecker.

With every step in her high heels, she seemed to defy time. Even in her forties, her flawless porcelain skin made it impossible to guess her true age
It was no wonder that Harvey was so utterly captivated by her.
Harvey smiled at her. “Melany, I know it’s been tough on you and Dangelo. Dad still won’t budge, but don’t worry. Our son is so exceptional, he’s practically a genius. Once Dad sees how great he is, he’ll accept him. As the only son of the Morgan family, I eventually get my place back. When that happens. Il marry you properly.”
Melany smiled sweetly, her voice soft. “It’s not difficult. I’ve told you before. Em with you for love, not for money or status. As long as I’m with you. I’m happy to live on scraps.”
Harvey’s heart swelled with emotion. You’re so kind.
- nd. I really de
don’t deserve someone like you. I’m truly lucky to have you.”
Elaine, eavesdropping nearby, nearly gagged at the display,
Benjamin had refused to acknowledge them, but here they were, checking into a high–end hotel. They were staying in a luxurious suite, of course.
Shirley, standing next to Elaine, heard everything and gave a cold laugh. She was ready to get her revenge.
It was time to make those two pay.
