The Return of the Disguised Princess

Chapter 83

Chapter 83 Endure for a While

The reason why he had done that was that he could bribe Miriam bit by bit to see what Macey wanted to do.

At Highland Hospital.

“Hello, I want to go in and visit Mr. Mullen. Can I?”

A woman wrapped tightly appeared in front of Rex’s ward.

The bodyguard did not dare to agree easily because of previous experience.

“Well, why don’t you go back first? Mr. Mullen is not in good health and can’t see anyone for the time being.”

“Just several minutes.”

“No, you’d better go back.”

“Come on.”

Just as the two were arguing outside, the door suddenly opened.

“Belen?”

Aaron placed the suit on his arm. He looked at the two in surprise.

“Mr. Mullen! Help me tell him that I want to go in and see Rex.” When she mentioned Rex, she paused unnaturally.

Aaron was stunned for a second and immediately thought of the entanglement between

the two.

“Alright,” He chuckled and patted the bodyguard on the shoulder, and said, “She’s a

friend of Rex. Let her in.”

“Yes, Mr. Mullen.” The bodyguard silently retreated to the side.

Belen snorted and rushed into the ward.

“Mr. Mullen, aren’t you going in?” The bodyguard asked timidly.

Aaron closed the door, lowered his head, and tugged at the wrinkles on his shirt. “No.

I’d better avoid the conversation between them.”

“You’re coming.”

Rex put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at Belen who was dressed in neat clothes with a smile.

He had just heard the subtle noise outside the door, so he asked Aaron to go to have a

look. It was Belen. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“How is it? Seeing that your former defeated opponent is stronger than you now, do you feel unbalanced?”

Belen didn’t fix her eyes on Rex.

“What are you talking about?”

Rex did not avoid it at all and stared straight at her side face.

There was no more talk…

Belen looked out of the window with some embarrassment and kept fiddling with a

ceramic decoration on the corner cabinet.

After a while, Rex opened his mouth to break the silence. “You… do you put on makeup

today?”

Hearing this, Belen immediately rushed to the bed in exasperation, like a child whose

lie had been exposed. “I don’t! It was just that I didn’t rest well last night. I put a thin

layer of powder on my face to improve my complexion. Why would I put on makeup for

you?”

Rex saw through her but didn’t go on.

The first time we met, she didn’t wear makeup. It’s rare to see her like today. She looks

so cute.

“You smell fragrant today.”

Belen immediately blushed and moved far away from him. “That’s because you did not take a bath for so many days. You’re smelly, so everyone smelled fragrant compared with you.”

“You have a sharp tongue.”

Rex laughed loudly and felt better. After sitting up on the bed, he asked Belen to sit

beside him.

After coaxing for a long time, Belen agreed.

The two of them lingered for a long time before Belen reluctantly asked to leave.

“Right,” Rex held her hand and said, “Amelie…”

“Don’t worry. I will take care of her.”

Macey, who had been discussing with her brother for the entire afternoon, had just returned home. She opened the door and saw Lamont sitting on the sofa not far away, his head lowered as he dealt with work.

The floor lamp light from the side divided his face into black and white, and his deep eye sockets made it impossible to tell what kind of emotion was hidden in his eyes.

“You’re back?”

Macey put down her handbag, paused, and responded coldly.

After two short sentences, there was no more conversation between the two. The huge villa fell into dead silence again. Occasionally there was the sound of two pages flipping.

Macey sighed with relief. Just as she was about to return to her bedroom, Lamont spoke

again.

“Starry Sea Entertainment has officially filed a lawsuit against you. The court summons

has already arrived here.”

“Against me?”

“It’s on the table in your bedroom. You can have a look.”

Macey walked quickly to the table. There was a thin receipt in the middle.

The official seal of the Oakland Court was on it.

Impossible! I’ve told them to shut their mouths tightly. Their wives and children are all in my hands. How could they dare to tell the truth?

“What are you going to do?”

Macey didn’t know when Lamont had already walked behind her. The sudden question like a ghost made her heart tremble.

“What are you doing? Do you want to scare me to death?”

Macey vigilantly opened the distance between them and sat on the sofa with the summons in her hand.

Once they have all the witnesses and material evidence, I’ll be screwed.

But…

“Are you thinking about Lionale Law Firm?”

Lamont seemed to see through her as he spoke slowly from the side.

Macey immediately looked at him as if she was grasping at a life–saving straw. “Do you have any idea?”

Seeing that he didn’t speak, Macey couldn’t hold back any longer. She stepped forward and tugged at his sleeve, repeatedly asking, “Tell me! Is there any way?”

Lamont looked down at his mother, whose face was now filled with anxiety. A sense of revenge ignited in his heart. “When I asked you back then, you didn’t tell me. Now you turn to me for help?”

“You!”

Although Macey had resentment in her heart, she had no choice but to force a smile at

this moment.

“Lamont, I didn’t want you to worry too much at the time, so I didn’t tell you the truth. Now that the court summons has arrived at our home, you can’t watch your mother be

beaten by that bitch, right?”

“What does it have to do with me? It is clearly written on the summons that you are the

only one to be sued.”

Hearing Lamont’s words, Macey stepped back in shock.

Just now, she did not take a serious look at the content of the meeting and thought that

Amelie had prosecuted the entire Prosperity Global.

She did not expect that she would be the only one to go to court.

If I really failed, wouldn’t Prosperity Global be handed over to Lamont?

I can’t let this happen!

Macey secretly clenched her fists.

To make her lower her head to her own son was more difficult than asking for her life.

However, she thought about the interview two weeks later, this annoying son could disappear from this world forever.

“Lamont, if you have any good ideas, please tell me. I will ask your uncle to transfer the money into your account tomorrow. How about it?“
