Just as Norah and Lucas stood in a standoff, Elisa walked out from around the corner. She stood right in front of them.

Lucas and Norah were both startled, their faces showing visible panic. "Lisa, how long have you been here?"

"I've been here all along." Elisa smiled.

She looked just like her usual self. Her smile was indifferent and distant, making it impossible to read her true feelings.

Lucas felt a throbbing pain in his head. This meant that Elisa had overheard everything they had said.

Norah clenched her teeth and decided to lay it all out. "Lisa, I need to talk to you!"

"Go ahead, I'm all ears," Elisa replied, rubbing her ear to signal that she was listening.

Lucas heart tightened as he pulled Norah aside and whispered, "What do you want to say? Don't you think our daughter is already distant enough?"

Norah held back her frustration and shouted, "Since things have come to this point, it's better to just say it out loud!"

"Licia, Isabelle is your sister. Today at the party, I an

  • Revenge Of The Real Heiress    chapter 145

    The night had unraveled in an intricate sequence of events, each one building on the last.First, Mina stormed into the Watson residence with reporters in tow, dropping a bombshell accusation in front of the gathered guests. The shock left the family scrambling, giving them no chance to react or regain control of the narrative. Then, as if perfectly timed, Laurence arrived with his team. Without hesitation, they leveled the accusations against Isabelle and took her away.It all happened seamlessly-one action leading directly into the next, as if meticulously planned.Norah, her mind racing, refused to believe this was merely Mina's work. A simple housekeeper, skilled at cooking and cleaning, couldn't possibly orchestrate something this devastating. The person pulling the strings from the shadows had to be someone else. Her voice, sharp with fury, rang out. "Who's behind this? Tell me who it is!"Mina's expression twisted into something strange, almost triumphant. Her gaze slowly shift

    Laurence continued in an even tone, "Additionally, our forensic team has verified the video's authenticity. There are no signs of tampering or editing. The video is genuine and admissible as evidence."He paused, allowing the weight of his words to settle before continuing, "On the night Ruben died, Isabelle had him accompany her to the mall to carry her purchases. This has been confirmed by the mall's security footage and statements from the sales staff working that evening."Street surveillance shows Ruben stopping at a bank, where he withdrew a hundred thousand dollars in cash for Isabelle. The two were last seen driving together toward Cedar Street. The final footage of them shows the car heading in the direction of the beach. And " "Enough! That's enough!"Lucas cut him off, raising a hand in resignation. His voice, though firm, carried the weight of defeat. "Captain Quinn, I trust in your department's ability to conduct a thorough investigation. If my daughter is guilty, the la

    "I agree. The Watson family is the richest in Vinelake. Who wouldn't want a piece of that pie? This kind of behavior... Ugh, disgusting.""They already gave her some money out of kindness, but greedy people like her are never satisfied. It's shameful!""Exactly! Her husband's death has nothing to do with the Watson family. This is just ridiculous!"The crowd began to share their thoughts again.Mina, hearing the murmurs, didn't lash out or defend herself. Instead, she laughed. But it wasn't a laugh of joy. It was harsh, filled with bitterness and malice. It sent chills down the spines of everyone in the hall, including Lucas and Norah.With an unsettling smile, Mina handed a memory card to a reporter standing beside her. The reporter, clearly prepared for this moment, quickly inserted the card into his equipment.A beam of light illuminated the white wall, and suddenly, both the image and audio of a recorded video were projected for everyone to see.Mina's hoarse voice broke the tense

    A single revelation set off a storm.The hall was abuzz with murmurs. Just moments ago, the lively and cheerful atmosphere in the grand hall had been palpable. But now, it was as if someone had flipped a switch. Silence fell over the hall. It was so absolute you could hear a pin drop. All eyes turned to Isabelle, and whispers began to ripple through the crowd."Gosh, murder?""Is this for real? It can't be, right?"Someone else chimed in, "Do you even need to ask? Look at the victim's family standing right there. This has to be true!""I heard about it! A driver of the Watson family did pass away recently. They found the car and body yesterday near the beach on Cedar Street. Word is, it sank straight into the water. A friend who went to the scene told me it was... horrific." "Gosh! If Isabelle really did it... Well, I guess you never truly know someone, do you?"The crowd started shifting subtly. Some people discreetly moved farther away from Isabelle. Step by step, the space around h

    Sebastian sighed, clearly frustrated. "I thought you liked swans?""Well, I don't like them anymore!" Isabelle replied, her tone confident and unapologetic. Her animated expression added a playful charm, making her bratty behavior oddly endearing rather than annoying.To Sebastian, the necklaces were just necklaces-the only difference was the pendants. He wasn't about to cause a scene in front of everyone, let alone argue with his sister. He turned to Elisa instead and asked, "Do you like it? If not, I'll get you the same one tomorrow."Elisa gave a faint smile.When she was little, she once found an old doll that a kid from her village had thrown away. She carefully cleaned it, sewed up the tears, and even made it a little dress. It wasn't much, but it was hers-something she treasured. One day, a relative came to visit with their child. The kid saw her doll and demanded to have it. Before Elisa could react, her foster mother, Olivia, snatched it out of her hands and gave it away with

    That evening, the banquet hall was alight with festivities. The grand hall was filled with laughter and clinking glasses. Isabelle thrived in the attention, basking in the glow of compliments from her guests. She had invited a big group of her coursemates and friends. In the college, anyone with an average family background who received an invitation from Isabelle was overjoyed. After all, the Watson were the wealthiest in Vinelake. They were eager to attend such eye-opening events. It was an opportunity to expand their connections and potentially mingle with people from a higher social class.Then, there were people like Serena, part of the city's elite herself, who also got an invite. Unlike others, Serena had zero interest in going. But in the world of high society, family ties and business partnerships often ran deep. Her family owned one of the biggest catering chains in the city and had plenty of business dealings with the Watson.Even though Serena wasn't interested in attendin
