All Chapters of From Disgrace to Glory: Rise Of The True Heiress: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

On the way to the Laurent estate, Vessara closed her eyes and rested against the seat.Fragments of her years in prison drifted through her mind.The memories only sharpened the coldness in her gaze.She didn't know the driver well enough to make conversation, so she remained silent for the entire ride.When the car finally stopped, she simply murmured, "Thank you," before stepping out.Standing before the familiar villa, Vessara paused for a moment.Then she walked inside without hesitation.At the same time, a passing car slowed near the entrance.Razen's gaze landed on a familiar figure.Something flashed through his mind.Before he could make sense of it, his body had already reacted.By the time he realized what he was doing, he was following the woman into the Laurent estate.Inside the villa, laughter filled the living room.Selena was nestled comfortably against Jason's chest, her voice soft and sweet."Jason..."She looked up at him coyly."Our company's stock has been climbi

By the time Vessara returned to the Barclay estate, it was already evening.To her surprise, the entire family was still waiting in the living room.No one had started dinner.The moment she stepped inside, Emilia immediately looked up.Then her eyes widened."You came back?"The words escaped before she could stop them."Emilia." Isabella frowned. "Is that any way to speak to your sister?"Then she looked behind Vessara.Confusion appeared on her face."Sweetheart, where's the security guard we assigned to you?"Vessara lowered her gaze slightly."He disappeared."She sounded almost wronged.Isabella's expression darkened immediately."Emilia kept telling me he was reliable."Her voice sharpened."He's worked for this family for years. And this is how he does his job?"The more she thought about it, the angrier she became."When he comes back, pay him and let him go."Emilia nearly choked."Mom, maybe there's some misunderstanding..."She forced out a smile."He's worked for us for a

Inside the spacious study, Razen sat behind his desk, his expression dark.His dress shirt was wrinkled.His tie had long since disappeared.Several buttons at his collar hung undone, revealing a glimpse of tanned skin beneath.Across from him, Nathan sat hunched over a computer."Razen..."He glanced over cautiously."I've been searching for two days."His voice grew weaker with every word."I checked every surveillance camera in the area. Every traffic feed. Every private security network I could get access to."He swallowed."There's no trace of the woman you described."A pause."Is it possible you're remembering wrong?"The second the words left his mouth, Razen looked up.Nathan immediately regretted his life choices."Never mind." He raised both hands. "Forget I said anything.""My memory doesn't fail." Razen's voice was calm.Which somehow made it even more terrifying."The only explanation is that you're not good enough."Nathan nearly choked."Right." He nodded rapidly. "Abs

Meanwhile, Lucas headed straight for the room next door.The moment he stepped inside, he spotted Emilia curled up in a hanging chair."Why are you sitting in here alone?""Lucas..."Her lower lip trembled.As though she might burst into tears at any moment."Mom and Dad haven't paid attention to me for days." She lowered her head. "What if they really want me gone?"Lucas sighed."They won't." His tone was firm. "Trust me. I've been watching Vessara."Emilia stiffened almost imperceptibly.Lucas continued."She's not the person you think she is. She won't hurt you."He smiled faintly."And our parents still care about you. More than you realize."Emilia's eyes widened.Why...was even Lucas defending Vessara now?Had that woman already stolen the last person who still stood firmly on her side?No.She refused to accept that.Lowering her head, Emilia carefully hid the hatred gathering in her eyes.By the time she looked up again, she appeared obedient and attentive.The perfect young

After leaving the hospital, Vessara slipped into a secluded alley and removed the fox mask. Cool night air brushed against her face, and she let out a slow breath, feeling the tension finally ease from her shoulders.Only then did she check the time.It was already late.Since she had traveled to the hospital in a vehicle belonging to the base, she made sure to have it drop her off several blocks away from the Barclay estate. The Fox-Masked Doctor could never be connected to the Barclays—not if she could help it. The fewer people who knew about the relationship between the estate, the Black Sector, and her organization, the better.With that in mind, she started walking home.She had barely gone a few streets when a commotion ahead caught her attention.A crowd seemed to appear out of nowhere, gathering so suddenly that she nearly stopped in her tracks. Instantly, her instincts sharpened.At the center stood a burly man with a bloated face pitted by acne scars. One eye drooped half-sh
