This Time, I Survived Their Plot Chapter 10
"You planned murder," I said, sweeping my gaze over them. "Every single one of you was in on it."Lana broke completely. She dropped to her knees, crying. "Landon, I was wrong! I really was! I'm your wife—I never wanted to kill you! They forced me!"I let out a scoff, pulled out an insurance policy, and smacked it against her face.I was the policyholder.She was the beneficiary."Maybe you didn't think of it at first," I said, mockery in my eyes. "But Felix got himself into trouble."I glanced at him. "You raped a girl. Then killed her and dumped her outside the city. Thought no one saw. But a homeless guy did. He wanted a huge payoff. You couldn't afford it—so you came up with this."My voice dropped cold. "If I died, Lana inherits everything. Plus the insurance payout. Felix uses the money to shut him up. Both your families live off my death."I gave him a thin smile. "You almost pulled it off. Too bad..."I didn't finish. 'Too bad I came back.'Soon, the verdict came down

I kept going. "That two-story house you're living in? I paid for it. Built it for you. Six months ago, I brought Felix into the city—no education, always causing trouble. I gave him a place, a high-paying, stable job. I handed him everything."I pointed at him, hate burning in my eyes. "I treated him like family. He stole my wife, went after everything I own, and even tried to kill me! So tell me—what else do I owe you?!"Uncle Caleb's expression kept shifting. In the end, he dug in. "Felix didn't kill you! You're standing right here, aren't you? Stop making things up!"***Seeing I'd completely cut off Uncle Caleb's side, Vincent and Donelia flipped instantly.They dragged Lana over, forcing smiles. "Landon, it's all a misunderstanding! Be the bigger person. Just forgive her this once. Let's move on, okay?"I looked at them, nothing but ridicule. "You call me ungrateful. A loser. But don't forget—before Lana met me, you couldn't even afford a decent meal with meat."After she m

He sighed, putting on a serious face. "Landon, we're family. Why not talk this out? Your parents died early. My wife and I raised you. You know how we treated you."He paused, then shifted. "Felix is your cousin. Transfer the house to him. Give him half your shares. It's your responsibility as the older cousin."I looked at Uncle Caleb, the disappointment settling deep.So that was it—they were all after my money.I didn't argue. I hit the call button and had the nurse throw them out.The second they were gone, I called Sadie. Told her to get a few solid bodyguards outside my room. No one gets in.Over the next few days, Sadie took care of me.The day I got discharged, I went straight home with bodyguards.Divorce papers in hand, I walked up to Lana. "Sign it."She ripped it apart. "You want me leaving with nothing? Dream on!"Vincent and Donelia started cursing beside her.I didn't bother responding.I went to the bedroom, packed my valuables, and walked out. No looking ba

They called me a coward. Useless. Said I was a grown man scared of a mountain.A real man pushes himself. If I didn't have that kind of guts, how was I supposed to make Lana happy?They kept at it until my face burned. I snapped and said yes.Now that I think about it, something was off.That mountain—that was the key.I snapped my eyes open, my gaze going cold."Sadie," I said, locking onto her, "check out Raven Peak. Have the team inspect the summit guardrails—see if anything's off. And I think they had a backup plan on the road. Find out if anyone's been scouting the mountain."Sadie nodded. "Got it. I'll set it up now."She turned to leave."Wait."I dropped my voice. "Also check if Felix has been in any trouble lately."If Lana and Felix just wanted an affair or a divorce, they wouldn't have gone this far.Something else pushed them into a corner."Understood. I'll report back ASAP."After Sadie left, the room went quiet again.I lay there, staring at the ceiling, e

Felix shook his head. "Landon... you're a real letdown."Sadie's face darkened. She stepped up, blocking me.Her gaze stayed steady—calm, firm. "Stop twisting the facts. If Mr. Lloyd hadn't texted me his location, would you already have gotten what you wanted?"She paused, then held up her phone, screen lit. "I recorded everything you just said. When we get back, I'm suing for defamation."Her eyes cut to Felix and Lana—sharp. "And about attempted murder... this road's quiet, sure. You really think there's no cameras?"That hit.All the color drained from their faces.The panic—no way to hide it now.Lana swayed, rolled her eyes, then dropped—out cold.As for me, I was done. Blood still seeping from my head, strength gone.My vision went black.I passed out.***When I woke up, I was already in a hospital room.Sadie sat beside the bed, worry in her eyes.I looked at her. Something warm hit my chest.She always showed up when I needed her.Late nights—she'd bring coffe

"Sadie!" My voice came out rough as I forced my hand up.She ran to me. One look—blood on my head, my face gone purple from the cold—and her expression snapped.The rescue team rushed in, cracking open a first aid kit."They're trying to kill me!" I pointed at Felix running toward us, my voice shaking. "Felix. Lana. Her parents. They're all in on it!"I barely finished before Felix stumbled up, gasping for air.He saw the rescue team and Sadie—froze.Then his face flipped to panic, all fake hurt."Landon! What are you saying?" He dropped down, reaching for me. "I was worried! Why'd you run? It's snowing—it's dangerous!"I smacked his hand away. "Back off."Vincent, Donelia, and Lana came running up.The second Donelia saw me, she broke into loud sobs. "Landon! How can you say that about us?"Lana clutched her stomach, tears in her eyes, looking like the victim. "Landon, I know you're upset, but you can't accuse us like this."You were the one who wanted the speakers. Said w
