Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred)

“Alfred, let’s work together,” she said confidently. “Since you know all about me, you should also know that Fraley Medicals mechanical research and new drug development are my contributions.

“I can do better than d

them and get you quick returns, with long–term profits that are absolutely better.”

In order to confront the enemy, she needed his assistance. Meanwhile, he would likewise need her help when contending with others from the Andrews family in the future.

She would give him everything, so that in the future, he wouldn’t be betrayed, hurt, or wronged like in the past

All the debts she owed him from their past life, she would repay double.

Seeing her bright, intense gaze, Alfred’s heart melted. But on the outside, he remained calm.

He gently touched her check. “Whatever you say goes, After all, you are my girlfriend, aren’t you?”

life

She was stunned again. His fingertips brushed her eye corner. “Moved” Being my girlfriend is quite lucky, right?”

“Yeah!” She nodded with tears in her eyes. “Very lucky”

His thin lips naturally landed a kiss on the corner of her mouth. “Just wait and see. Being my girlfriend comes with many privileges and surprises” He looked like a complete indulgent ruler.

Lea touched the corner of her mouth, holding her breath, her cheeks burning hot.

After a moment, Alfred got serious again. “Your medical report is already with Christian. He knows about the abuse and the brain–enhancing drugs you’ve been given over the years. He’ll take care of you”

Lea was taken aback once more. That was indeed why she had pretended to faint.

Christian was naturally suspicious and very protective of his family. He trusted Matilda and Helen deeply, which was hard to change. No matter what she said, he wouldn’t believe her easily. The more she talked, the more annoyed he’d get. So, she had to show him solid proof

Exposing the genetic drug issue would help her reclaim her identity and reputation, and take back what was hers. She didn’t expect Alfred to understand all this and have everything ready for her.

“Lea” Alfred’s thin lips curled into a teasing smile, with a hint of mischief. “We’re on the same wavelength”

she looked at him with red–rimmed eyes, her gaze intense and full of love. His constant teasing was overwhelming her.

Alfred was taken aback. Lea looked like she was about to cling to him and devour him.

He instinctively loosened his tie, swallowed, and his eyes darkened with desire.

“Rest well, I need to take care of some things at the hospital” he said, his tone restrained.

He was afraid if he stayed any longer, he wouldn’t be able to control himself.

“Okay.” Lea replied, snapping back to reality.

After Alfred left the room, Lea, though exhausted, couldn’t sleep. She went to the window, drew back the curtains, and looked outside.

It was midnight, the sky was dark, and the city’s outline was jagged like a giant monster.

A flash of lightning split the night sky, and heavy rain poured down on the hot summer night.

Warching the rain, a cold umile formed on her lips.

Jeffrey knocked at the door. “Miss Lea, Miss Lea, are you awake?”

Lea’s expression hardened. She quickly lay back in bed, pulled up the covers, and closed her eyes.

effrey was about to push the door open. “Forget it” Christian held his hand to stop him. “Her health is poor. Let her stay in the hospital”

“Let’s have the bodyguards stay here. I’ll take you back.” Jeffrey suggested.

Christian shook his head, full of guilt. Til stay here with her. It’s my fault for not taking care of her

“But your healthJeffrey was concerned. Christian was getting older and stressed. He couldn’t keep going like this

Tm fine, replied Christian

The next day, the doctors checked Lea again, changed her bandages, and prescribed more medication before they left. By the time they got back to the Berry family estate, it was already past five in the afternoon.

The thunderstorm hadn’t let up, and the rain was coming down hard, creating deep puddles everywhere..

The Berry family estate, located in the city center, covered 25 acres. The two–story building sprawled elegantly, with grand white pathways, lush green lawns, a sculpture fountain in front, and an overall peaceful atmosphere, far from the city’s noise.

From a distance, they saw two people kneeling at the large iron gate. They were Matilda and Helen. Rainwater had soaked them through, and they were shivering and mimb.

“Mr. Berry… Jeffrey began.

“Leave them be” Christian’s face was stern. Matilda had been married into the Berry family for twenty years, and he had indulged her too much.

The iron gate opened, and the long Luxora car drove straight in.

The car wheels sent water spraying, drenching Helen and Matilda,

Lea turned her head, looking through the rain–streaked window at the trembling figures, her eyes cold. “This was nothing” thought Lea

When Lea was three, during a rare cold snap in Vaporleon City, the temperature dropped to 21 degrees Fahrenheit. Helen had gotten sick from her own mischief, and Matilda had locked Lea outside, leaving her to faint from the cold. Because Christian had told Matilda to take good care of Lea, Matilda didn’t let Lea die to protect her own image.

“Christian Christian!” Matilda scrambled up and ran after the car.

“Grandpat” Helen tried to get up but collapsed back to her knees.

“Helen!” Matilda helped her up. “You stay here and kneel. Wait for me.”

“Why? Why do I have to kneel! I don’t want to Helen cried, shaking her head. “Mom, my knees are bleeding, my body hurts, my head feels like it’s going to explode. I have a fever, Mom. It’s Lea, it’s her! I want Grandpa to kill her, kill them all..”

“Sweetheart, trust me, okay?” Matilda cupped her daughter’s face, wiping away the rain and tears, but the rain was too heavy to keep her face dry,

I will take care of it. Just hold on a little longer, just a little longer. Matilda’s lips were turning blue, and her facial muscles twitched from the cold. Her heart was breaking with pain.

Last night, aher rescuing her daughter, Matilda brought Helen to Christian’s mansion, hoping to earn his forgiveness. She knew Christian valued his reputation, and both she and Helen had tarnished the Berry family’s name. So, they knelt in the pouring rain outside the mansion, hoping to gain Christian’s sympathy and forgiveness. Matilda planned to seek revenge for Helen once Christian’s anger subsided.

But she didn’t expect Christian to take Lea to the hospital.

This left Matilda and Helen in a tricky situation. They couldn’t leave their kneeling spot and take shelter from the rain because the servants would report it to Christian, and he would think they weren’t sincerely apologizing. So, they had to kneel all day.

Neither Helen nor Matilda had ever suffered like this in their entire lives.

“Mom, hurry up! I don’t want to kneel anymore! I want Lea dead? Helen said angrily.

“Yes, yes! I’ll take care of it right away. Whatever you want, I’ll make it happen, Matilda said, determined to get rid of Lea
