Estravia, Starlace Villa

Starlace Villa is Leo’s residence. Though not as grand as Wexford Lane, it’s still magnificently built, luxurious beyond measure.

At this moment, Starlace Villa was brightly lit inside, but because it was seldom visited, beneath the splendor and luxury, it felt somewhat cold and lonely, with a hint of desolation.

In the spacious, bright courtyard, there was nothing else except a tall persimmon tree, lush and flourishing, standing proudly alone.

Under that persimmon tree, someone was bored out of their mind, slumped over a long table, yawning for the umpteenth time, casually tossing a small white jade-like trinket in one hand.

About fifteen minutes later, a figure rushed inside from outside, bursting out laughing:

“Pfft... Rael, you’re really still here? I thought you’d left already. Your idea to ask for money was brilliant! Not only did my brother agree to give me some, I even got to see the future sister-in-law…”

As he charged forward, he plopped down on Rael

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Not Heartbroken

    VIP Hospital RoomLeif sat quietly by the bedside, occasionally glancing at the medical monitors. The atmosphere in the room grew increasingly tense — even the occasional nurses who came in felt a suffocating heaviness hit them as soon as they stepped inside.One nurse came in to check Raina’s temperature. After finishing, she blushed deeply and practically rushed out.She took several deep breaths, fanning her face as the heat slowly faded. Puzzled, she muttered to herself, “Why did I just bolt out like that? Why...? Margareth, did you guys also...?”“Oh my god, it’s suffocating! Don’t you feel like that room can’t possibly fit a third person in? Look at my face, it’s still red…”“Seriously though, who exactly is Miss Carrington to Mr. Vexley?”“Pfft hahaha — Are you dumb? Mr. Vexley personally carried her in and pushed her into the VIP room. Who else gets that kind of treatment? Even the young master didn’t get anything this fancy. Who do you think she is to Mr. Vexley?”With emphas

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Relief

    Rael rubbed his forehead, clearly annoyed, and scooted a little farther away from Leo. Then he pretended not to hear anything and started staring off into the distance, refusing to talk to him.Leo: “…”Man, Rael, you’re really going all in on that ‘step back’ move!Just then, Rael’s phone rang. After a few quick words, he frowned and said, “…What?! Mireille ran off? Are you all useless or what? Fine, I got it, get lost!”He hung up and rubbed his forehead again, then looked at Leif. “Mr. Vexley, Mireille slipped away just now during the chaos. From the security footage, it looks like she planned it ahead and someone was there to pick her up. I’ve already sent extra people to track her down. We’ll report back as soon as we have news.”Whether Mireille runs away or dies didn’t really concern him.But Mireille’s fate? That was for Raina to decide.Leif’s eyes were bloodshot. His voice hoarse, he said, “No matter what, we have to find her.”Hearing him finally speak, Rael breathed a slig

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Regret

    On the way to the hospital, Leif held Raina tightly. He sat up straight, his body stiff as a board. Though his hands were wrapped around her, he carefully avoided any direct contact—like he was afraid to touch her too much.But the grip only got tighter, like he wanted to squeeze her into his bones, to become one with her.Raina started to feel a little breathless, but her mind told her she wasn’t supposed to wake up right now. For some strange reason, she felt oddly reassured—Leif wouldn’t hurt her anyway. So, she let herself pretend to be unconscious with complete peace of mind.Maybe it was the tension finally snapping, or maybe the exhaustion after everything she’d been through. Leif’s embrace somehow gave her a strange comfort, and before she knew it, she was drifting off to sleep.In that half-dreamy state, she thought she heard Leif say something—just a word or two, but she was too tired to catch it clearly. The only words that stuck were “regret” and “regret.”Regret what?She

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Evidence

    Those people were dragged from the door up onto the stage. As soon as they got there, the black-suited bodyguards kicked them down to their knees.“The fire at the lab... we set it. We were wrong. We were just following orders—”“I—I was forced. I really didn’t want to do it. Yes, forced. I just wanted to survive, just wanted to eat...”“It was her! It was Mireille! She made us set the fire. Said if we didn’t, she’d kill us to keep us quiet. We had no choice. None of us wanted to die...”“We were just trying to protect ourselves. What’s wrong with that? Nobody survives by being selfless. If I want to live, then I... I...”The few of them looked pale, broken, and on the verge of collapse. Kneeling on the floor, it wasn’t clear if they truly felt guilty for killing or if they were just forced into confessing.Mireille stood there frozen in shock.If the video wasn’t enough, now these people who actually set the fire were coming forward to accuse her—that was solid proof.Ironclad, unden

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Fake Agreement

    As Mireille finished speaking, the huge screen behind them switched—the bloody, crazy video disappeared, replaced by a photo of a document.The cover clearly read in big letters: Company Transfer Agreement.At the end of the document was Raina’s own handwritten signature, agreeing to transfer the company to Mireille for free.The whole room erupted in shocked whispers.“What the—what’s going on here?!”“Who’s actually framing who? Could that video really be fake?”“No way… photos can be faked, but videos? That’s gotta be real… right?!”“Hard to say. Who says videos can’t be faked? They can be edited, you know? And honestly, Mireille doesn’t seem crazy enough to do something that messed up…”The mood in the room shifted again.Mireille seized the moment, putting on a look of quiet suffering and hurt as she said, “Sis, I know you’ve been bitter ever since Dad handed the company to me, but... we’re family, after all. No matter whose name the company’s under, it’s still the same. No matte

  • Jilted Heiress Strikes Back   Secret Tunnel

    “Wait—sister?! That ugly, useless Raina from the Carrington family actually showed up? Man!”“Raina got disfigured, right? Didn’t she run off abroad and hide? And now she’s back, daring to show her face again?!”“Back in the day, Raina was something else—stunning, brilliant, the cream of the crop. After she took the crown as the city’s top socialite, there were even rumors she was going to marry Reid, the young master of Lystra. She was living the dream. But then—”“But what’s the point of that? She messed up her own life, got disfigured by her own mother, got pregnant before marriage, and betrayed Reid. Someone like her doesn’t deserve anything!”The crowd’s tone instantly flipped.They were full of malice, speaking as if they’d all lived through that scandal firsthand—like if they didn’t vent their outrage at Raina, they’d be betraying someone.Everyone was turning against her.On stage, Mireille watched their reaction with satisfaction, as if she’d just won a huge battle.
