The favoritism was unbearable-blatant and suffocating.

Elisa's eyes were sharp, as if she could see through their thoughts. Any trace of guilt or denial they had was completely exposed.

Norah stammered, "Licia, Isabelle would never do something like that."

"You can read her mind now? Know exactly what she's done or thought?" Elisa's tone was dismissive, completely indifferent to whether this would tear their relationship apart.

The illusion of family harmony had long been shattered, so there was no need to pretend anymore.

Norah was at a loss for words, and Lucas added, "Licia don't get sidetracked. The one who tried to harm you is Melvin, and I promise you, I will make sure justice is served. But Isabelle has nothing to do with this." Isabelle stood quietly behind them, not needing to defend herself. There would always be someone ready to believe her, to protect her.

This was a privilege Elisa could never afford.

Elisa had expected things to turn out this way, but it still hurt. That

  • Revenge Of The Real Heiress    chapter 160

    Elisa finally snapped out of her confusion.Why would Damien say she was going to find Arnold?What kind of joke was that?Her expression darkened. She opened her mouth to retort, but he forced a kiss on her before she could speak. A commanding, demanding, and relentless kiss swallowed her words before they could escape. She struggled, but Damien was unyielding. His dominance left her no room to retaliate.Elisa didn't have her silver needles with her, but she didn't need them. She knew the human body's meridians like the back of her hand-every pressure point and every weak spot was burned into her memory. Moreover, Damien sustained some serious injuries after that fall in Alverton. With precision and speed, she curled her fingers into a claw and drove them into his waist, hitting the exact spot to make him buckle. A low grunt escaped Damien, his body stiffening as his dark eyes bore into her. There was no pain in his expression-only a simmering danger that seemed to deepen the room's

    Every time Elisa needed to leave the Russell estate, she'd rely on Kenneth for a ride down to town. But once at her destination, she'd insist he return without her. She'd always arrange her own way back, usually by cab. Kenneth had followed those instructions to the letter, but tonight, that wasn't enough to appease Damien.Damien glared at him before turning on his heel and heading toward the door. His determined stride left no doubt about his intentions-he would personally pick her up.But just as he reached the entrance, headlights flickered outside, and the sound of an approaching cab made him pause.Elisa stepped out of the cab, carrying herself with her usual nonchalance. "Thanks. Just wait here a moment," she told the driver before heading toward the house.She met Damien in the doorway. "Oh, hey," she greeted casually, barely slowing her pace as she slipped past him.Damien stood still, his expression unreadable. Though his dark eyes followed her retreating figure into the hou

    Arnold's eyes lit up, his excitement barely contained as he exclaimed, "Don't worry, Grandpa! This time, I'll do exactly as you say!"Charles waved a hand dismissively and picked up his brush again. But as he reached for the palette, he realized the palette was missing. It had been hurled across the room during his earlier outburst.Arnold immediately retrieved it, cleaning up the mess and refilling it with fresh colors. He even started mixing paints to prepare the colors.Charles irritation melted away instantly. Chuckling, he said, "You really know how to butter me up when you need something, don't you?""Grandpa, don't say that. I'm just being thoughtful," Arnold came up with an excuse for himself."Alright. Your shirt's covered in paint. Go clean up and get some rest," Charles told Arnold."No rush, I'll stick around a little longer."As Arnold continued mixing the paints, he watched Charles expression. Once he was sure Charles wasn't upset anymore, he decided to try his luck agai

    Was Elisa trying to seduce Mr. Russell?The thought struck Arnold like a lightning bolt, and his expression immediately darkened as a storm of emotions flashed past-anger, disbelief, and frustration. By the end of it, his teeth were clenched, and his hands were balled into fists at his sides. "Damn it!" he hissed under his breath.Henry watched Arnold's increasingly erratic demeanor with a mix of amusement and exasperation. "One more thing," Henry added, his tone dropping to a serious warning. "Stay away from Elisa. Don't cause any trouble for her." "Why?" Arnold shot back. "She's my fiancée."He emphasized the word "fiancée" with a deliberate force, his jaw tightening as he spoke.Henry nearly laughed out loud, a derisive snort escaping before he could stop it. "Oh, she's your fiancée now? Funny how that works. Back when your grandfather broke his back arranging your engagement, you were nowhere to be found. You skipped the ceremony entirely, didn't you?"You've got no claim on her.

    Why did this feel like a scene straight out of a soap opera?Elisa stood behind Arnold, who was now caught in the middle of what could only be described as a standoff. The two men stared each other down, one icy and composed, the other visibly seething. The tension was thick enough to cut with a knife. Despite the gravity of the situation, Elisa found her thoughts wandering to the cliché plot of two men fighting over the same woman. It was absurdly amusing.Clearing her throat, she decided she wanted no part in this drama. "Gentlemen, enjoy your conversation. I'll be going now."Without hesitation, she turned and began to walk away, looking unbothered and unapologetic.Arnold, however, stayed firmly rooted, his protective stance unwavering. Facing the man before him, he gritted his teeth and demanded, "Who are you?"The figure before him was undeniably commanding, a paragon of authority and refinement. Though he spoke indifferently, his display was oppressive, like a predator eyeing p

    The other young socialites who had been so eager to join the game now stood on the sidelines, licking their wounds and laughing nervously. They had lost far more than they anticipated while Elisa hadn't lost a single round. By the end, Arnold's face was ashen, his pride utterly trampled."Come on, Elisa, you don't have X-ray vision, do you?" one of the socialites teased, trying to lighten the mood.Elisa smirked and shot back, "Nah, I just have really good hearing."Her playful response had everyone around her bursting into laughter.Elisa had no idea that her little gambling spree had caught the attention of someone watching from above.Damien stood at the edge of the upper level, his eyes fixed on the scene below. There was Elisa, seated in the center of the group, completely surrounded. Arnold sat directly across from her, looking absolutely miserable. Even from that distance, Damien could hear the noise-the lively chatter and the bursts of laughter echoing through the room."She's
