The Killer Queen (Noella Briony)

Elara's heart was racing!

She was wrapped in the protective embrace of the man next to her, his oversized robe shielding her, a faint scent of sandalwood filling the air around them. In that critical moment, Horatio had instinctively used his body to protect her!

Letting go, Horatic said calmly, "Apologies for the intrusion. It was a moment of urgency, hope you don’t mind.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Thanks a lot." Elara touched her face, feeling its unusual warmth. Deciding to step out, she opened the car door and joined the driver to inspect the fender-bender.

Myra was already on edge, and Criana's constant babbling was driving her mad, convincing her even more that Noella was nothing but trouble! The thought of Palmer being manipulated by such a deceitful woman was driving Myra insane. She couldn't wait to get to the hospital to reveal the truth to the Pollack family! And then, a collision happened on the way!

Myra sized up Elara, pretty, but not dressed in any luxury brands, looking like she came from an average family. This made Myra even more impatient. "Seriously, can't you drive? Forget it, just my bad luck. Contact your insurance, and let me know how much. I'm leaving!"

Elara frowned, "It was your fault for the collision, you're entirely to blame, and I'm in a hurry!"

"If you hadn't been in my way, would I have hit you?"

"So, you're blaming the collision on me now?" Elara had never encountered such shamelessness! What kind of logic was that!

Myra rolled her eyes, "Exactly! Whatever, I'm just unlucky. Move!"

A car sped by and stopped beside them. The window rolled down, and Noella, looking concerned, said, "Sis, did you have an accident?" "Just a minor collision, don’t worry, I've already called Jasper.”

Seeing Elara was Noella's sister made Myra even more irritated! "Like sister, like sister, both morally bankrupt.”

Elara was fuming! Insulting her was one thing, but her sister too? "What do you mean? What has Noella ever done to you? You must be sick! It makes sense, considering you can't even drive properly, can't expect much from you.”

"My meaning? Your sister's actions speak for themselves! Is your family even aware? She's been chasing after men that aren't hers, constantly targeting my friend, she doesn't deserve Mr. Pollack!"

Elara raised an eyebrow. "Oh? So it's about the Pollack family again, huh? Whether Neella is worthy or not isn't for you to decide!”

The car window rolled down further, revealing a distinguished man with an imposing profile. "Elara, get in, we shouldn't waste time not seeing grandpa."

"On my way." Palmer didn’t spare Myra a glance, leaving her stomping her feet in frustration. Before getting into the car, Elara turned to Myra.

"This genius, don't think all of the Pollack family are fools. If you're so smart, why hasn't your family overtaken the Pollack family? Don't like being the wealthiest or what?"

Myra was stunned on the spot! Although harsh, Elara's words made sense! Watching their car disappear, Myra stood frozen, her mind racing at full speed, her CPU overheating!

Criana tugged at her sleeve, "Myra, please, don't be fooled by them, I'm telling the truth..."

Myra snapped, "Shut up, you idiot!" Reluctantly, Oriana closed her mouth. Myra wasn't reliable, she had to find Dan herself!

Imperial West Hospital.

Lavinia's room was warmly decorated, with Elara changing the fresh flowers daily. After hearing Elara out, Lavinia put down her paper. deep in thought. "Attending the wedding is the right thing to do. Your grandfather is also in this hospital? Take your mother to visit him, it's only proper for the younger generation to pay respects.”

Elara quickly agreed, pushing Lavinia's wheelchair to Sexton's room. Seeing her, Sexton sat up in bed! "Lavinia... I'm grateful you're willing to see me!"

Lavinia smileghsoftly, "Mr. Sexton, the past ESI your fault. Elara told me the Pol ack family feels guilty, - but please don't. It wasn't the = Richardson family’s fault, nor the Pollack’s. If anything, it was alack oli fate between me and Jacob!" Content be ongs to swnevel net

Over the years, seeing Jacob age made Lavinia realize that their young love was just not meant to be. "I and Jacob weren't meant to be, but we've agreed to co-parent our daughter. If there's anyone to apologize to, it's Elara." "As for everything else, let's leave it to fate.”

Tears filled Sexton's eyes, "If only we had chosen our sides wisely back then... perhaps your family wouldn't have suffered so.”

Helen frowned, "Nonsense, would siding with Garrick have spared us? It's not about taking sides; the o Richardson family suffered ~~ regardless, and following Garrick didn't bring us any advantages.”

Reflecting on this, Sexton felt somewhat relieved "Lavinia, Noella, and Palmer are getting hitched! You're coming, right?”

"Sure, I'll be there with Elara. Might as well drop by the Schnabels' place too."

She'd beentaying low for a while, recuperating, hardly had the chance to catch’ Rup with Sienna and Tri stan! She oped them big time for looking aftether sweet little girl like she was their own! -

Sexton nodded, content. Palmer handed over the medication, detailing the side effects Noella had warned about.

"Enough with the fuss, I'm old enough to know that if it's my time, it's my time. A few side effects are nothing!"

The room fell silent, the air heavy with unspoken worries. Helen blinked back tears, her throat tight. "I need to step out, don't wait up for me at dinner." Megan, concerned, asked, "Where to? Want me to come with?"

"No need, just some errands.”

Jasper Law Firm.

Piles of paperwork had Jasper at his wit's end.

Assistant: "Jasper, Mrs. Jin's mom passed her mental health check, doctors say she seems fine."

Jasper felt a pang of worry, having promised Beckett he'd handle it. Stuck at step one wasn't a good lock!

Millie, lounging on the couch and popping her bubble gum, snapped her fingers. "I've got an idea, Jasper, how about a bet?" "If I win, you're taking me out for a date - and a kiss!"

Jasper nearly fell off his chair in shock!
