Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 688



Upon hearing Alex's words, the temperature around Yvette seemed to drop rapidly. Her delicate face was filled with murderous intent.

Anyone familiar with Yvette would know that she was truly angry right now. However, Alex was oblivious to the approaching danger and continued to dig himself into a hole.

"You're just a damn jinx. It wasn't enough for you to jinx the person who adopted you to death; now, you're trying to jinx me as well. She must've been blind to have adopted you in the first place Before Alex could finish his rant, he felt his throat tighten. He was unable to let out a single sound and felt like he was suffocating.

Yvette grabbed his neck, lifting him out of his wheelchair with a single hand. Eyes filled with anger, she looked as terrifying as a demon out of hell.

She would never allow anyone to speak ill of Kayla

When Irwin's senses finally caught up to him, he was stunned. His daughter looked frail and weak, yet she could actually single-handedly lift Alex!

"Murder... Murder... Help..." Alex wheezed, his plump body shaking in fear.

"Yvie..." Irwin snapped out of his stupor and hurried forward to stop her. "Calm down, Yvie! Let me handle this!"

Out of respect for him, Yvette loosened her grip. She tossed Alex to the floor as if she were throwing out the trash.

Alex landed heavily on the floor. He grimaced in pain but was still scared out of his mind. "She wants to kill me! I'm her grandfather, yet she treats me this way! I'm contacting the reporters immediately!

"I must let the whole of Jubilife know about this! I want her reputation ruined! Let's see how she's going to set a single foot outside of Murray Manor in the future!"noveldrama

Irwin immediately shut him down. "Absolutely not! You can't do that, Dad!"

The commotion downstairs was so loud that it woke Yara, lan, and Sean from their sleep. They made their way downstairs only to witness this scene. "Are you alright, Yvie?"

The first thing the three did was to rush to Yvette's side, looking at her with concern.

This made Alex furious. "Do none of you take me seriously now? Yvette treats me this way, and

yet you still worry for her instead?"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He gritted his teeth and said, "Since you like her so much, you can leave this family along with her!"

Yara shielded Yvette behind her back, eyes cold. "That's fine by me! We don't want to continue staying in this house anyway!"

She then turned to Irwin and said, "Let's divorce, Irwin! I'm taking Yvie with me!"

She had silently vowed never to let Yvette suffer anymore! But Alex would never let this matter go, so remaining with the Murrays would only bring her suffering. Therefore, she might as well leave with Yvette. This way, her daughter wouldn't have to suffer anymore. At Yara's words, lan and Sean also spoke up without hesitation. "We're leaving too! We go where Yvie goes!"

Alex didn't expect them to go to such lengths. His rage only intensified. "Fine! All of you, get out! Don't even think you'll be getting a single cent of the Murray family fortune-"

"Shut up, will you?" Irwin interrupted him. His face was crumpling in pain. "I've been obedient and respectful to you for all these years. When you asked me to support Erwin back then, I agreed without a word of complaint.

"I let him and his family work at the company, only for them to embezzle tens of millions of dollars and almost cause me to go bankrupt!

"You wouldn't let me get even with Erwin, and I obeyed you then too. Not only did I sweep the incident under the rug, but I even shared the company's dividends with them, allowing them to live comfortable lives.

"After Erwin and his family were involved in the accident, you insisted that we adopted Yasmin. We agreed to your demands and raised her as if she were our own daughter, but how did she treat us in return? "And now, you won't give up on driving Yvie out of the Murray household. Are you not going to stop until you've torn our family apart?"

Irwin's words struck some guilt into Alex's heart, but outwardly, he stubbornly stuck to his views. So what? I'm your father, so it's only right that you listen to me! You're my son, so you should just do what I tell you-" Yvette cut him off calmly, "That's not necessarily true."

For some reason, when Alex met Yvette's gaze, he felt his guilt multiply. However, he forced himself to keep up a strong front. "What nonsense are you spouting? You don't acknowledge me as your grandfather, and now you're not even allowing Irwin to acknowledge me as his father?" "Do you absolutely have to make me spill your dirty secret before you'll admit to it?" The scorn in

Yvette's eyes deepened. She threw the paternity test report heavily in his face. "What do you have

to say now?"

"You" Alex was both nervous and angry. He attempted to tear up the test report in his panic, but Irwin was faster than him. He snatched up the report, catching sight of the line detailing the results of the test.

The report read, "The data gathered from the test does not support a relationship of paternity between Specimen 1 and Specimen 2. Specimen 1 is excluded

top as the biological father."

"I'm not biologically related to you?" Irwin looked disbelievingly at Alex, his pupils narrowed in shock. "What exactly is going on?"

Alex was feeling extremely guilty at this point. He was panicking internally and didn't dare meet Irwin's eyes. He also resented Yvette more and more.

This was all because of that little bitch, Yvette! Irwin would never ever have found out otherwise! That bitch really was a jinx! She was going to be the death of him!
