    “M-Ms. Mya, may I know how you’re rted to Adrian? Why would you want to help him?” Harold


    nervously asked as he looked at Mya.


    Mya loosened her hair and replied, “I’ll say it again. If you don’t do as Adrian said within the given time,


    I’ll personallye to Xander Manor and end every single person here.”


    Mya turned around and left the manor, leaving Harold to fall limp into his sofa.


    Leonard, Wilfred, and the rest were confused and panicking.


    “What’s the matter, Father? Who was that woman? Why do you seem so afraid of her?”


    “Who is she?


    “Who else could she be? She’s Jason Dean’s granddaughter. I just can’t figure out how Adrian had


    gotten her to help him!” Harold said in shock.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Everyone was stunned when they heard this. They, of course, know who Jason Dean was.


    The Deans were a top-tier family in Southrive, so much so that the Xander household could


    to them.

    Still stunned, Leonard asked, “Are you sure, Father? How could that deadbeat possibly be acquainted


    with someone like her? Could there be some sort of misunderstanding?


    “Neither of us has ever met Mya Dean before, so could that woman be a fake?”


    A spark went off in Harold’s mind, thinking that Leonard might be right. Hesitantly, he said, “Of course, I


    wish she was a fake. But have you all thought about what might happen if she’s the real deal? Our


    entire family will be toast!”


    “That’s impossible!” Wilfred shook his head. “Don’t worry, Father. There’s no way that deadbeat would


    be in any way acquainted with Jason Dean’s granddaughter. That woman’s definitely an impostor. I’m


    sure


    of it.”


    “That’s right, Father. It just wouldn’t make sense for a woman of such high status to work for Adrian. I’m


    positive he hired that woman to put up a performance. After all, this wouldn’t be his first time doing


    such a thing.” Cecilia joined in.


    Harold contemted for a moment before suddenly realizing that their words held merit.


    They’re right! How could Adrian poss bly have asked Mya for help? I’m probably overthinking this.”


    He heaved a sigh of relief and said, “You’re right. I was probably thinking too much into the matter.


    There’s nothing for us to be afraid of since she’s a fake


    “First things first, have Cedric and Jacob sent to the hospital. I won’t let Adrian get away with this.”


    Harold stood up and continued, “Leonard will hold the fort at Paraiso for the time being. As for Riley…


    I’ll forget I ever had a granddaughter like her. I don’t want her to ever step foot in this house again.”


    ‘Father” Cecilia was just about to plead on Riley’s behalf, but Harold had already returned to his room.


    refusing to give her that chance.


    At that moment, Leonard shot a cold re at Riley and said furiously, “I’m very disappointed in you,


    Riley.. Do you have any idea how your decision today will affect the rest of your life?”


    Riley remained silent.


    “You’re no longer my daughter. Go do whatever it is you wish to do!” Leonard waved her away and


    stormed off.


    Cecilia shot a nce at Riley. “You’re trying to give me a heart attack, you little brat.”


    Everyone slowly left the living room, leaving Riley all alone. She wiped away her tears, not realizing


    how her decision would affect her future.


    However, she knew one thing was for certain-she could not waste away her life staying in Xander


    Manor. anymore.


    After all, she had her ambitions.


    While the Xander household was going through that heated argument, Samantha was seated in a cafe.


    She had called Mandy to make an appointment to meet there, and she had arrived an hour early to


    wait.
