High-Maintenance Heiress Has a Deadly Meltdown Chapter 10
Six months later, I stood on the award stage at Clairmont Fashion Week, dressed in haute couture.Under the flashing lights, I smiled with radiating confidence.There was no trace of the once fragile and highly sensitive heiress who needed her brothers to protect her, no more of that woman who would break down whenever her emotions overwhelmed her.After the ceremony ended, Elliot handed me a glass of warm water backstage. The temperature was still precisely 98.6 degrees."Congratulations, Chief Designer," he said with a smile.I accepted the glass and took a sip. "Thank you for everything you've graciously done for me this past year."He raised an eyebrow. "Graciously?"He stepped closer, backing me against the edge of the vanity. "Nancy Chapman, after everything I've done for you, don't you think it's time to repay me a little?"I looked at his face so close to mine, a smile creeping onto my lips. "What do you want, Mr. Henderson?"Elliot lowered his head, just enough for hi

After that night, the Chapman family became the city's laughingstock.Sunny, whose real name was Mary, was officially arrested on charges of commercial fraud, document forgery, and attempted murder.Inside Chapman Group, Elliot took the shares I had authorized him to utilize and intervened with ruthless efficiency.The veteran shareholders behind Mary's scheme, who manipulated everything from the shadows, were uprooted. He sent them all to prison.Chapman Group's stock price plummeted. Adam, overwhelmed by guilt and anger, spent two weeks hospitalized.On the day he was discharged, he, Beau, and Claude blocked the entrance to Elliot's estate. Rain poured from the sky. The three once-untouchable heirs of the Chapman family stood outside like stray dogs.For an entire night, they stayed there in the rain.The next morning, I walked outside holding an umbrella. The moment Beau saw me, he stumbled forward. "Nance, you finally agreed to see us!"His body was soaked through. His lips

Adam gritted his teeth and stepped forward as well. "Nancy, I'm begging you…"He lowered his head, his voice hoarse as he spoke to me. "For Billy's sake, for the man who sacrificed his life for us back then, withdraw the charges. Whatever compensation you want, I'll give it to you."I looked at them, so stubbornly refusing to see the truth. Suddenly, I felt nothing but pity.They were my brothers, yet for a debt of gratitude that didn't even exist, they were willing to abandon every boundary they once had."Adam, was your brain eaten by maggots?" I pulled a thick stack of documents from my bag and threw them in his face. "Open your eyes and see for yourselves. You'll find out if she's actually Billy's daughter."The documents were scattered across the floor. The one on top was a DNA test report. Claude picked it up with trembling hands. His eyes fell on the final line that read, "No biological relationship confirmed.""No way…" he mumbled.Elliot laughed coldly. "Billy's dau

When Adam, Beau, and Claude saw the document, their expressions shifted. Beau stepped in front of Sunny, shielding her behind him as he glared at me."Nancy, haven't you caused enough trouble? You were the one who said those sketches were waste paper. She was only trying to help you clean up."You even signed the designs away and gave them to her. Now that she's turned them into a finished collection, you've seriously come to steal her spotlight?"I looked at his self-righteous expression, finding it almost comical. "I signed them away?"I sneered, my eyes landing on the document in Sunny's hands. "Signature forgery is a criminal offense, Sunny."She shrank back in fear, tears rolling down her cheeks. "I didn't! That day, after you poured paint over my head, I was cleaning the floor when you threw the agreement at me. You said that as long as I signed it, those waste papers would belong to me."Claude wrapped an arm around her protectively, his face full of pity. He then turned

When I opened my eyes again, I wasn't on a flight to Silvania. Instead, I was lying in a lavish, elegantly furnished bedroom.A faint scent of agarwood lingered in the air, and the room was kept at a precise 76.1 degrees, the temperature I found most comfortable.A deep, commanding voice came from somewhere nearby. "You're up."I turned my head. Seated in the shadows was a man I recognized immediately. It was Elliot Henderson, the most respected man in the city and also the business rival my brothers feared more than anyone.I pushed myself upright, my throat still dry. "What brings you to the business of kidnapping people halfway through their journey, huh, Mr. Henderson?"Elliot walked over and handed me a glass of water. It was exactly 98.6 degrees."The Chapman brothers have lost their minds. They were actually going to send their sister to a psychiatric hospital. I happened to pass by, so I decided to pick up a bargain."He looked at me, amusement flickering in his deep e

My smile made the smug expression on Sunny's face freeze in place.She probably thought I would react like I always did, that my overwhelming episodes would cause me to break down or scream in panic. But I didn't.I simply got out of bed, reached for the fruit knife Sunny had left on the bedside table, and picked it up.Sunny yelped, and the apple slipped from her hand and rolled across the floor. I cornered her against the wall. "You enjoyed adding peanut butter to my oats, huh?"She trembled uncontrollably. Lost was the vicious and confident expression she had worn moments ago. "Ms. Chapman, please spare me… I was wrong. I'll never do it again!"I leaned close to her ear, but my voice was strangely polite. "Weren't you just so cocky? Come on. Keep taunting me."Just then, the hospital door was kicked open. Adam rushed in and roared, "Nancy, what on earth are you doing?"Beau and Claude followed right behind him. When they saw the scene, their faces dropped. Claude reacted th
