The Billionaire's Obsession: Reborn For Revenge Chapter 88
Chapter 88 Emelia's Pov Cassandra let out a hoarse, breathy laugh, one that made my chest tighten for reasons I couldn’t explain. It was laced with pain, but something else too, resignation, maybe. “Touché.” She murmured, then winced as she tried to push herself up with trembling arms. Her hand slipped and she crumpled back with a soft grunt of pain.“Could you help me to the bed?” She asked quietly, her voice stripped bare of the sharpness she usually wore like armor.I hesitated. Just for a second. The image of her skin, those black veins like spiderwebs, the open sores around her jaw, flashed in my mind. My feet stayed planted. I didn’t move. Cassandra let out another brittle laugh, this one more hollow than the first, “Ah. Of course. That’s right.” Her voice wavered, “The illness. You don’t want to touch me. I must look revolting to you now.”“Stop it.” I said sharply, but the guilt was already curling in my gut.“Don’t lie, Emelia.” She whispered, dragging the veil tighter ov

Chapter 87 Emelia’s Pov “I was right after all,” I murmured under my breath. My thoughts raced as I paced the length of my room. “A lady in the house gave them to me, however, not blatantly. She gave me a gift earlier and I found out about it by accident.”“A gift?” Miranda’s voice was sharper now, more alert. “What sort of gift is it? By any chance, could it be something that is made with jade?”I stopped dead in my tracks, my mouth parting in surprise.“She gave me a jade bracelet,” I whispered. “But what does that have to do with anything?”“That particular plant has a reaction when it comes in contact with Jade.” Miranda replied, her voice clipped. I blinked, “Wait… What kind of reaction?” “It oxidizes.” She explained, “But only under specific conditions. The asphodel variant you found, assuming that’s what it is, has a chemical compound that breaks down when stored near trace elements of jade. It doesn’t happen immediately, but once it does, it releases a byproduct which is u

Chapter 86 Emelia's Pov Even though I knew that Lina had felt familiar to me since the first time I met her, I had no idea that I knew her in my past life so vividly. At least that's how it felt. I stood up from my bed, planting my feet firmly on the ground, letting the cold pass through my body for a while to calm my erratic beating heart. “But what the hell was that?” I muttered under my breath, confusion lacing my voice. In the dream, a lot of things were not clear but there was one thing I did see. Lina and Cassandra… I mean, Cassandra's face and I couldn't determine the reason why they looked so much alike. They could even pass off as twins! Didn't Lina say that Cassandra was my aunt? How come two people had the same face in this world, it was really uncanny. “Not just that…” I moved to the dressing mirror where I had kept the jade bracelet and took it out, frowning. In the dream, there was something clearly wrong with the bracelet but no matter how much I looked, I c

Chapter 85 Emelia’s Pov “I have taken an interest in Jade and carving nowadays and this is one of my best works so I thought of bringing it to you as an apology gift. I do hope you like it.” “Like it?” I repeated, “Aunt, this is beautiful and I’m sure it will be very expensive. I can’t accept this.” I moved to give her back the box but she stretched out her hands, stopping me. “I insist, Miss Emelia. If you reject it, I will be very sad.” Cassandra repeated, her tone of voice showing that no matter what I say, she wasn't going to take the gift back from me. “Miss Emelia, it's better to take it. Lady Cassandra can be persistent when she wants to be.” Lina said softly, as she stood beside me, her hands folded neatly in front of her.I looked from Cassandra to Lina, then back to the delicately carved jade bracelet nestled in the velvet-lined box. The soft green gleam seemed to shimmer under the dim hallway lights. It was cool and elegant, exactly the kind of gift that came with expe

Chapter 84 Emelia’s Pov “I came here to take my maid along with me, Miss Emelia, you’ll let me do that, won’t you?” A calm airy voice came from outside along with a slight scent of herbs and perfume. I subconsciously took a sniff of her perfume and I felt my head calm immediately. Glancing at Lina, I frowned when her eyes started regaining its colour and stopped being glassy. Although what I gave her to drink was potent, it didn't last for long but no worries, I’ll still get another chance to give it to her to drink. Thankfully, she won’t remember anything about this entire ordeal when she wakes up. However, the woman at the door… Could that be the Lady Cassandra that Lina was talking about? “Ah… Huh? Miss Emelia? What happened, why do I feel so dizzy?” Lina shook her head to dispel the remaining dizziness from her eyes and she looked around, before her eyes settled on me, “Miss Emelia?” “The tea I gave you to drink calms the mind, that’s why I like taking it. You are not used

Chapter 83 Emelia's Pov “Tell no one else.” I said to her, staring into her eyes. She nodded and walked out of the room, her head lowered. It wasn’t long before a soft knock echoed through my room.“Enter.” I said, not looking up from the package I was preparing on my desk.The door creaked open and a slender maid stepped inside, her steps hesitant, her head bowed. She wore the standard uniform, hair tucked neatly into a bun, but I noticed it again, the same faint pink gloss on her nails that I had seen the night before. She didn’t meet my eyes.“You sent for me, Miss Emelia?”I turned slowly to face her, arms crossed, “Yes. What is your name?”She blinked, startled, “My name is Lina, my lady. Lina Graye.”“Lina.” I repeated, as if testing the weight of it, “Starting today, you’ll be my personal attendant.”Her head snapped up in confusion, brows furrowing, “My lady? I… There must be a mistake. I’ve already been appointed as Lady Cassandra’s personal maid. I can’t…”“My grandfather
