The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 57 "Creating Revision Plan"
The past few days had been a simmering pot of emotions for Eva. On the surface, she remained quiet, a mask of composure hiding the turmoil within. But beneath it all, her mind raced with strategies, waiting for the opportune moment to strike back.Diego misinterpreted Eva's quiet demeanor as weakness. Emboldened by her perceived submissiveness, his arrogance inflated with each passing meeting. His comments grew increasingly pointed, his tone laced with a newfound condescension. Yet, Eva remained an enigma.Diego and Eva's plan was difficult to implement. He constantly asked her to revise it and began bossing her around."The complete removal of trees is unacceptable! This project needs to prioritize sustainability. We absolutely must replant trees and find ways to make this space environmentally responsible. Revise it!""To break up the monotony, consider incorporating diverse entertainment venues. A rooftop bar with a stunning city view or a multi-purpose ballroom could be great addi
The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 58 "Truth Reveal"
Diego, shaken but regaining his composure, picked up the document. He examined it closely and muttered, "There seems to be no issue here."Irish's composure faltered upon hearing that. "Ms. Lowes, perhaps you could explain this to him why we agree to your plan."Eva cleared her throat and provided a detailed explanation of why Diego's suggestions were ridiculous."Mr. Chen asked us to keep the trees in the development area to retain green space, but he overlooked that their growth would affect construction and damage the buildings. Considering costs, he designed straight roads without accounting for the basic topography. Additionally, he wanted to add more bars and ballrooms, placing them next to the school and the library."Everyone at the meeting had relevant experience in architecture, and Eva's explanation enlightened them.Even a novice architect wouldn't make such glaring mistakes. It was appalling that Diego, a supposedly experienced engineer, made such errors.Everyone turned
The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 59 "Failed Attempts"
A dark glint flickered in Diego's eyes as Eva brought the glass of beverage to her lips. It wasn't excitement, not entirely. There was a hunger in his gaze, a predatory quality that sent a shiver down Eva's spine despite the warmth of the liquid. Her hand paused mid-air, the glass hovering inches from her mouth.Eva raised the glass to her lips, her eyes flitting nervously between Diego and the window across the room. With a practiced flick of her wrist, barely perceptible, she nudged a ceramic ornament on the table's edge. It tumbled with a clatter, shattering on the floor.The fork beside her fell to the floor.Eva yelped, a perfectly executed cry of surprise that momentarily filled the room. "Oh, no! I am so sorry, Mr. Chen," she gushed, her voice laced with faux-mortification. She set the untouched beverage down with a theatrical clatter "Such a klutz, am I right?" she cast a playful glance at Diego, her bright smile failing to reach her eyes. A predatory glint flickered in Dieg
The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 60 "She's Confuse"
The next day, Eva attended the project meeting as usual. To her surprise, Diego was conspicuously absent. The room buzzed with the usual chatter, but she couldn't shake off the uneasy feeling that something was amiss."Eva, have you seen the video in the group chat?" Julie asked urgently, tugging at Eva's arm to capture her attention. "I had no idea Diego was so wild in private!""What video?" Eva responded, her curiosity piqued. She pulled out her phone, sensing that whatever Julie had seen was bound to stir up more intrigue in an already tense situation.She pressed play, her eyes widening as the video unfolded. Diego was performing a shockingly vulgar striptease in front of the camera, his usual reserved demeanor nowhere in sight.Eva's mind raced. Was Blake behind this? Or could it have been Mr. Smith? The possibilities swirled in her head, each one more troubling than the last.Yesterday, after Eva had left, Blake, Irish, and Blake's subordinates had stayed behind in the room. N
The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 61 "An Unusual Event"
Tally punched in Blake's number for the tenth time that day. The rhythmic dial tone mocked her, a constant reminder of the silence since their last, unsettling phone call. Three days had crawled by since her release from the hospital, each one punctuated by unanswered calls and a gnawing fear. The forced stillness felt suffocating compared to the adrenaline rush of the incident itself.Desperate for a plan, Tally dialed Diego's number. As the phone connected, a sliver of hope flickered to life. But when Diego answered, his voice was laced with an icy indignation that sent shivers down her spine."Tally, how dare you call me after the mess you got me into? You assured me that Blake didn't care about Eva, and look where that's gotten me. My reputation is in tatters, and Blake has blacklisted me. How am I supposed to move forward in this industry now? This could ruin everything I've worked for!"Diego complained non-stop, his incessant whining grating on everyone's nerves. Every word h
The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 62 "To Threat Eva"
At work, Diego was replaced by a female engineer named Violet Alba.Her style was totally different from Diego's.Alba was a woman of action. She was responsible, professional and had a friendly attitude toward teamwork. Eva felt that she was perfect for the role.After a pleasant and efficient meeting, the two began to chat."Thank you so much for this opportunity, Eva," Alba said gratefully.Eva humbly waved her hand. "You don't have to thank me. Your appointment has nothing to do with me. It's just because you are good at what you do."Alba didn't buy it. "As you may well know, the construction engineering field is saturated with men. It's considered a men's job. Throughout my years in this field, I have never been treated fairly just because of my gender. You are the first person to give me a chance to show what I can actually do. For that, I'm very thankful."Eva was taken aback by her words."Me?" she asked, pointing at herself.Alba's forehead wrinkled in confusion."Didn't you
The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 63 "That's Not All"
When confronted with Eva's sudden and unanticipated counterattack, Noah's face blanched with panic. His voice wavered as he spat out, "You cheated me!"Eva's eyes glinted with a mixture of disdain and satisfaction. She crossed her arms and leaned back slightly, exuding an air of indifference. "If you hadn't done anything wrong," she retorted, her tone icy and cutting, "you wouldn't be cheated."Noah's mind raced, replaying the events that led to this moment. He had always prided himself on his cunning, but now he felt cornered, his usual bravado crumbling under Eva's steely gaze. The room seemed to close in around him, each second stretching out as he struggled to regain his composure.Eva's confidence was palpable, a stark contrast to Noah's unraveling facade. She had seen through his schemes and now held the upper hand, relishing the shift in power dynamics. "You thought you could outsmart me," she continued, her voice a deadly whisper, "but you underestimated me. That's your real m
The Heiress Reborn CHAPTER 64 "Chen's Challenges"
Javier wiped the sweat from his brow as he sat in his dimly lit office, the stifling heat of the afternoon pressing down on him. The small fan on his desk did little to alleviate the oppressive atmosphere. His shirt clung to his back, damp with perspiration, and he could feel beads of sweat trickling down his temples.Javier shifted uncomfortably in his seat, his expression a mix of anxiety and defiance. "Mr. Chen, said the person on the other line. "You were the one who secured the contract for the amusement park, weren't you? I've been hearing troubling reports. Word is that your workers refused to continue, and as a result, the contract has been terminated. Is that true?"Javier's face tightened, a flicker of anger flashing in his eyes before he masked it with a practiced calm. He took a deep breath, the weight of the question hanging heavily in the air. "Of course not. It's just a misunderstanding!" Javier immediately interjected, his voice tinged with desperation. But the pers
