All Chapters of The CEO’s Obsession: Layla, You’re Not Allowed to Die: Chapter 571 - Chapter 580

The room fell awkwardly silent. Everyone’s expression soured, but no one dared to speak. They could only watch as William and Layla walked past them and took a seat beside Mr. Perry Sr. on the couch.Mr. Perry Sr. turned to Layla with a kind, almost doting expression. “Layla, what do you think about all this?”“No way!” Felix snapped, instantly offended. “Grandpa, Layla’s just an outsider! Why would you ask her opinion? You nearly lost your great-grandchild! This is serious—”“That child isn’t a Perry heir. Xena isn’t even married into this family yet,” Mr. Perry Sr. interrupted, his voice firm and filled with quiet authority despite his age.Mrs. Xander couldn’t hold back anymore. “You can’t say that, Mr. Perry Sr.! Xena’s carrying Felix’s child. How is that not your great-grandchild? Are you saying your family’s going to deny it now?”“They’re young. I can’t control how they fool around,” Mr. Perry Sr. replied coolly. “But as long as I’m still alive, I’ll decide who’s allowed in

“Dad, I told you a long time ago—Layla’s cold-blooded. Why are you still trying to appeal to her with emotion?”Shane let out a scornful snort. “She’ll get what’s coming to her. Sooner or later.”Layla glanced at him with a calm smile. “If karma’s coming for me, I haven’t seen it yet. But right now? Looks like the ones paying for their actions are you.”Her gaze swept lazily toward Xena. “She’s the one who got pregnant out of wedlock and brought shame to the Xander family. Yet instead of blaming her, you’re all coming after me? You really might want to check your logic.”Xena’s face turned pale, then red, then pale again. “Layla… do you really hate me that much?”“I’m just here for the show,” Layla replied, her smile faint and unreadable as she looked down at her sister. One was seated with composed confidence, the other kneeling in desperation. The difference in presence couldn’t have been more obvious.“You’re the one putting on this performance. Why drag me into it? At this po

Just then, Xena's tearful voice rang out, soft and shaky.“Sean… you’re not going to help me either?”Sean frowned, not even sparing her a glance. “This isn’t something I can get involved in.”That sentence hit Xena like a bucket of ice water. Her whole body went cold.She could only watch in silence as Sean leaned in to whisper something to Kiera. Then, with gentle care, he escorted her toward the parking lot.There was no hesitation. Sean had made his choice that he was standing with Kiera and her unborn child.“No…” Xena’s mind reeled. “There’s no way Kiera could actually be pregnant!” she thought.“Xena.”Mrs. Xander’s voice snapped her back to reality.“Let’s go home and figure something out.”“Figure what out?” Xena murmured, her head lowered, her entire spirit drained. “No one wants me anymore… no one wants my baby…”“Let’s go,” Mr. Xander said firmly, shooting Mrs. Xander a glance, signaling her to lead Xena away.Shane followed with a deep scowl, shooting Layla a m

The call ended.Xena slowly set down her phone, a cold smile curling on her lips. She lifted her gaze toward the pitch-black night sky outside the window, as if staring straight at Sean.“This little game between us? You don’t get to decide when it ends.”She picked up her phone again and switched to a different system, dialing a hidden number.A lazy, chilly voice answered on the other end, its tone soaked with amusement and a trace of danger.“Well, look who finally remembered me. What kind of mess do you need me to clean up this time?”“What’s going on with Kiera?” Xena asked bluntly. “Didn’t you say the drug you gave me would keep her from getting pregnant?”“Hm?” The man’s voice lifted slightly in surprise. “She’s pregnant?”“Yes. And thanks to that, my entire plan fell apart.”“That doesn’t make sense…” he muttered, pausing a beat. “Are you sure she’s actually pregnant?”“She has a report—”Xena stopped mid-sentence, suddenly realizing something.“You think the report

After being crushed over and over again, Hannah had lost all hope until she met Sean.Back then, he had said something similar to what she had just heard.With his support, she had slowly reclaimed what was rightfully hers, step by step, until she finally regained control of the Stone family’s business empire.To her, Sean was the mentor who had recognized her potential when no one else did. He was the one who believed in her. She had always remembered that.So when he brought up her long-held dream of launching a fashion magazine and subtly suggested she approach Layla for help, she didn’t question it.She assumed he was simply trying to help her chase that dream, offering sincere, thoughtful advice.But when had the doubt started creeping in?Hannah couldn’t pinpoint the moment.Maybe it was after working with Layla for a while—seeing her sincerity up close made Hannah wonder if this partnership was really as pure as she had first believed.After hanging up the call, Hannah
