The Woman From Hell

A trace of surprise flickered across my face when I heard the voice. Seeing the ugly contortion of Silas' face, however, I no longer had the heart to care about it anymore. I wanted to go out and check things out, but his subordinates stopped me at the entrance. Two people entered the study.

It was Tyler and Marius!

I smiled and waved at them. "Ty! Marius! You're here!"

"Wandy, are you okay?"

"Sis Wan, are you alright?"

Silas stood before me before I could reply. "Of course, I would take care of my granddaughter. There's no need for your worry."

Tyler retracted his worry, his expression cold as he looked at Silas. He put his hands in his pockets, his body exuding an intense arrogance. "That's not what you said just now, Old Master Yard. You remember what he said, President Klein?"

"That's right. Old Master Yard, you said just now that Wanda wasn't here. So how did she appear in your study now?" There was amusement in Marius' eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled upward as he looked at Silas. The two younger men did not lose their momentum when they confronted Silas.

However, I was also worried that their action would lead to Silas holding a grudge against them, which would disrupt their future.

Silas raised his head and smiled. He turned back and glanced at me. "Her name is Selene Yard, and she's my granddaughter. She's not Wanda Lane. Leave and I'll overlook your crime of breaking into my house." "What?" Marius laughed after hearing his words. "If you're going to say that, old man, then fine. Let us take Sis Wan away and we'll overlook your crime of abducting her and holding her captive." "How presumptuous of you!"

Silas was furious. He struck his cane on the ground, expressing his anger at the moment.

""You're not welcome here. Leave immediately!"

"You want us to leave? Sure. I'll take my sister away with me," Tyler said and walked toward me.

His subordinates immediately stepped forward and stopped him. Silas' back was facing me, but I could imagine his furious expression at the moment. His tone begged no argument. "Leave immediately before I lose my temper."

There was no trace of fear on Tyler's face. He met Silas' eyes and enunciated, "I'll take Wandy with me!

"If you want your granddaughter to stay, you'll have to ask her if she wants to. What's the point of keeping a useless shell otherwise? You might even repeat the tragedy back then." "Shut up." Silas was coughing. His anger probably caused it.

Sylvester entered the study after that. When he saw this scene, he quickly supported Silas. "I can sue you for trespassing on private property," he exclaimed while pointing at Tyler and Marius.

"If you're going to simply detain

someone, we can also sue you for

that." Marius was showing no weakness. "Shannon's probably gathered the media by now. If you don't release her, we can't guarantee what the media will report after they come rushing over in a while."

Feeling the sting of another warning, Silas' tone obviously soured. "You should be aware of the consequences of threatening the Yard family."

"No matter how many bodyguards

the Yard family has, you won't be able to hold back the media since they'll do everything they can to get a big seeop. You've worked so hard to bury the events of the past until now, old man. You probably don't want it all spreading out again, no?"

Silas said nothing more, his expression dark. Sylvester looked at me. "Sister, you have our blood flowing in you no matter what. Grandfather truly isn't doing well, so please stay and help me take care of him." "I wouldn't be against it if he were a good man. But he isn't."

I looked at Silas' face which had aged with time, but I did not feel a single hint of pity...
