Whatever it took, Sheila would tear Kourtney down and reclaim her pride. The pride she lost when Kourtney flung a hand across her cheek in front of everybody at that afternoon tea party they held last time.

She could never forget that incident because nobody, dead or alive had ever dared to hit her before, not even her parents or Grandpa Woods.

Receiving a public slap from a nobody had to be the biggest humiliation of her entire life and she wouldn't let Kourtney go until she got her lick back.

Once again, she imagined Kourtney’s fall: the headlines, the scandal, the shame, Sebastian’s disgust.

Wouldn't that be so satisfying?

She glanced at her mother, whose eyes mirrored her own venom. They didn’t need words; their shared hatred for Kourtney was a bond stronger than blood.

Dana’s eyes seem to whisper. “We’ll handle her, darling. Trust me!”

And that was all the motivation Sheila needed.….

  • My Stone-Hearted Billionaire Husband   Chapter 194: A Dark, Delicious Opportunity

    Across the table, Sheila’s mother, Dana Woods, wasn’t faring much better. Her lips were pursed so tightly they’d nearly vanished, and her fingers toyed with the pearl necklace at her throat, a nervous habit. “Father, you… You can’t seriously mean to bring “her” back here. I mean she’s—”“Shut your little trap, Diana.” Grandpa Woods set his fork down with a deliberate clink.Dana’s face went even paler.She'd been his daughter-in-law for over two decades now, living here at the Woods Villa, and yet, the old man still didn't pronounce her name correctly.How pathetic was that?“Now, listen you frogs. I’m dead serious. That terrible sucker—” he jabbed a finger at the empty chair where Sebastian usually sat whenever he remembered the way to the Woods Villa. “—needs to bring Kourtney back to this villa. For a whole week. I want my family whole again.””WHAT??” the women seemed to scream in unison.The table erupted. Murmurs turned to hisses, and their disdain spilled over like wine from an

    Scarlet’s wrist was bandaged from the slashes she’d made in her desperation to drown out the emotional agony with physical pain.An IV was dripped into her arm.Her mother, Eva Thompson, sat beside her, eyes red and puffy, clutching her hand tightly.“You’re awake,” she choked out, tears spilling down her cheeks. “Oh, thank God.“Scarlet hissed bitterly, then turned away, shame and anger bubbling inside her.They should have just let her die!She didn’t want pity.She didn’t want comfort.She wanted only Sebastian.She wanted her life back.“Sweetheart, why?” her mother whispered. “Why would you do this to yourself?”Scarlet’s lips parted, but no words came. She had nothing to say.How could she explain the emptiness, the rage, the obsession that consumed her?That Kourtney had taken everything, and Scarlet had nothing left: nothing but the burning need to reclaim what was hers.“Scarlet,” her mother said again, squeezing her hand. “You really scared us so much. What would people say

    The front door creaked open, and Jamie, Sebastian’s assistant, stepped inside, freezing mid-stride. His eyes widened, his tablet nearly slipping from his hands as he took in the scene.Okay! This is awkward!The sudden intrusion shattered the spell, and Kourtney squeaked. Her face turned tomato-red as she scrambled to sit up straighter, smoothing her dress in a futile attempt to look composed.Jamie had walked in just in time to see them smooching and making out shamelessly on the living room couch. She felt a little embarrassed.Sebastian, on the other hand, looked ready to fire someone. “Jamie,” he said, his voice dangerously calm, “this better be good.”As usual, Sebastian’s reaction was different. His face was filled with annoyance as if he had just been denied his favorite cookie. It was obvious he hated being interrupted like this, especially when he was having a good time with his wife.Jamie better have a damn good reason for barging in here.Meanwhile, Jamie’s mouth opened an

    “So… did you miss me that much?” Kourtney asked as she stared deep into his icy blue eyes while playing with his left ear.Sebastian chuckled, a dark, sinful sound.“Baby, you have no idea what you do to me.” His voice was a low rumble, sending shivers down her spine.She bit her lip, trying to hide how much his words affected her.His gaze dropped to her lips, then lower, taking in the way her dress hugged her curves. “How am I supposed to focus on anything else when you’re sitting here, driving me wild?”The villa’s grand living room, with its high ceilings and polished marble floors, seemed to fade into the background, the servants’ quiet movements barely registering. It was just the two of them, caught in a bubble that made her skin tingle.“You’re not exactly subtle, Mr. Woods.”Sebastian’s grin widened, his voice glinting with that dangerous, playful edge that always made her “water” down there. “Subtle? Never been my style, Mrs. Woods.”His hands slid up her sides, slow and del

    The servants standing close by were all putting on a straight face. Kourtney wondered if they weren't paying any attention to her conversation with Lilian. Or maybe, they were just so good at pretending they weren't.Whatever the case may be, she suspected that it was the latter.“He what?? Don’t leave me hanging! Did he sweep you off your feet? Did he growl at the paparazzi like a sexy caveman? I need details!” Lilian was screaming into the phone now, so much so that Kourtney had to turn down the volume, not wanting the servants to hear her.For a split second, she thought she had gone deaf from the screams.“You’re too much. Let’s just say he made it clear I’m “his.”“Ooh, possessive billionaire vibes!” Lilian said dreamily. “Okay, we’re meeting on Wednesday at our favorite Coffee shop by 5 p.m. I need to see your famous face in person. Remember, you also need to get your glam up and take more photos. We have to make plans.”“Done,” Kourtney agreed, her heart lighter.She loved the
