Chapter 1120:


    Naomi’s cheeks turned pink. “I was worried you’d forgotten. You’re incredible, Christina. Just being remembered by you feels like an honor.”


    “Stop staring at Miss Jones like that. You’ll make her ufortable,” Leona chided gently as she tugged at her daughter’s arm.


    “I won’t cause her difort!” Naomi pouted and then quickly broke into a grin as she turned to Christina. “Right, Christina?”


    Christina caught the mischievous look on Naomi’s face and chuckled. “Yes, your gaze won’t cause me any difort.”


    “See, Mom?” Naomi giggled. “Christina’s amazing—no way she’d shift uneasily under my gaze!”


    “You…” Leona sighed, shaking her head with a resigned smile, though her eyes were full of warmth. “I really don’t know what to do with you.”


    Christina gave Leona a quick once-over. “Mrs. Frazier, you’re looking good. The poison’spletely gone, right?”


    Leona nodded. “Yes. And it’s all thanks to your warning. Otherwise, I’d have died without ever knowing I was poisoned.” Her voice carried a hint of sadness. Who would’ve thought her own husband would be the one secretly poisoning her—just so he could get his hands on the assets her parents left her? A man who had built his whole sess off her back… not only betraying her trust, but even plotting her death. He deserved to rot in hell.


    “So he…” Christina trailed off, leaving the sentence unfinished. But Leona understood perfectly. She had ensured her husband met his deserved fate.<fn7d9b> This update is avable on Find~Novel</fn7d9b>


    Leona’s lips curved into a cold little smile. “He had an ident not long ago. We just held the funeral.”


    Of course, it wasn’t really an ident. It was the gift she’d personally arranged for him. Since he’d been so ruthless with her, why should she show mercy? As for the illegitimate children he left behind—she would never acknowledge them. The instant her husband was gone, she had wasted no time cremating his body. Without any sample for a DNA test, there was no way for those illegitimate children to make a im on the inheritance. And if those mistresses thought they could make trouble, she’d crush them without hesitation.

    Christina hadn’t expected Leona to strike so decisively and neatly. Her gaze softened with respect.


    “My condolences.” Christina gazed down, lowering her voice just enough to add a sharp reminder, “But make sure there aren’t any loose ends.”


    Leona froze for a moment. She didn’t doubt Christina would figure it out from just a few words, but she hadn’t expected Christina to actually remind her to cover her tracks properly. “Alright,” she whispered, her throat tight. “Thank you, Miss Jones, for the reminder.”


    Leona’s eyes misted over. She’d worried Christina might see her as cruel or unforgivable, but instead, Christina had simply advised her to be thorough. The truth was, ever since her n seeded, unease had been gnawing at her. But with Christina’s approval, she felt something inside her finally ease—like a heavy stone rolling off her chest. After all, her husband had struck first, plotting to kill her. She had only returned the favor. If she had shown weakness, she would be the one in the grave right now.


    “Mom, it’s all behind us now,” Naomi murmured, hugging Leona tightly. “Things are only going to get better from here.”


    Naomi knew her father’s death had been her mother’s doing, but she didn’t see anything wrong with it. If her mother hadn’t acted, her father would have killed her next—all for the sake of his illegitimate children. It was his own betrayal that destroyed him. He had dug his own grave, and his downfall was nothing but well deserved.
