I Became His Sweetheart

Chapter 126 “Why? Just because Sheena and Hannah are both dead?”

Katie raised her voice, “That’s right. Because of this, Howard wants to call off our engagement, and my parents already know. I’m in a tough position now, so | won't be able to cooperate with you. Anyway, the two women who posed the greatest threat to you are already dead, and the path to being the Moore Group’s heir seems pretty smooth for you.”

“But...” “No buts. That's it.” Impatiently, Katie cut her off and hung up the phone right away.

Jennifer wanted to say more, but all she heard was the dial tone. She stared at the call log on her phone, a mixture of happiness and confusion swirling within her. While solving the problem of the two people she despised brought her joy, Katie’s unusual behavior today left her with doubts, and Jennifer could not pinpoint exactly what felt amiss.

Since she could not figure it out, she decided not to dwell on it for now.

Jennifer tossed her phone aside and lay down on the bed, trying to dispel those concerns from her mind. However, Katie’s words haunted her mind, refusing to go away.

Jennifer grew increasingly agitated as she thought about it, eventually sitting up and gazing at the ceiling. Something was strange about Katie tonight, making Jennifer question her former partner even more.

Both of them had originally teamed up due to their own interests, and the level of trust between them was something perhaps only they themselves truly knew.

Vanessa walked in with her servants. When she saw Jennifer sitting on the bed, she said disdainfully, “Wow! Looks like you're recovering quite nicely! Hurry up and eat. Don’t just stare at the ceiling like you're lost in thought.”

Jennifer never could get used to the hospital food they provided. Even with the VIP package, she would take a few bites and then toss it aside in distaste. Hence, she kept asking the Moore family to bring her food.

Due to this, Vanessa always made fun of her.

Jennifer took the food from the servant. When she saw Vanessa, she was instantly reminded of the deceased Hannah, which oddly lifted her spirits.

“Yeah, I’m recovering quickly, It's good news for the Moore family since I’m the heir of the Moore family. If something were to happen to me, what would become of the Moore family?”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

She stirred her salad, casting a sidelong glance at Vanessa.

Vanessa rolled her eyes and scornfully remarked, “As expected of a mistress‘ daughter. You’re truly despicable, and you'll always be known as the illegitimate daughter. So what if you've risen to a higher position now? If it’s not yours, it will never be yours.”

With that, Vanessa turned her head away, refusing to even look at Jennifer, not wanting to

give herself any more trouble.

Seeing Vanessa’s calm expression, Jennifer began to wonder why she was not anxious about Hannah’s disappearance Something about this situation felt off.

Thinking this, she glanced coldly at Vanessa, mocking, “I’m just injured, and I'll be out of here soon. But your beloved Hannah is the unfortunate one. After all, she’s no longer with us.”

Jennifer smirked, taking satisfaction in watching Vanessa’s calm expression shift gradually into a panic.

“What did you say?” Vanessa lunged at her, grabbing onto her hospital gown. “Explain yourself clearly. What happened to her?” “Are you deaf?” Jennifer slapped her hand away in disgust. “Your beloved daughter is no longer with us. She’s dead!”

“Impossible! You're lying! Hannah was perfectly fine, so how could she be dead? You're lying! You're jealous of her, and that’s why you're cursing her!”

Vanessa trembled in anger,
