The Return of the Disguised Princess

Chapter 183

Chapter 183 You Are Not Qualified

Miriam glanced at the door of the study, wondering if Mr. Byron heard what they were talking.

“You are welcome, Ms. Aylward. It is always my duty to take care of Mr. Byron.”

Miriam acted very politely.

“Great. Ms. Malpas is always that conscientious… Why is Lamont still busy at this moment? I’ll go and see.”

Leila was about to walk towards the study.

Miriam leaned directly to the right, blocking her way.

“There’s no need, Ms. Aylward. Mr. Byron is still busy with his business, and I don’t want anyone to disturb him.”

“Ridiculous! You are not qualified to stop me.” Leila roared arrogantly, her eyes full of contempt. “You are just a housekeeper, how dare you put on airs in front of me?”

Miriam remained expressionless. She looked at Leila as if she was watching a joke,

“Qualification? Anyway, I’m still Mr. Byron’s personal secretary. Please do not make it difficult on purpose, Ms. Aylward.”

“Make it difficult?” Leila was angry and dissatisfied, but she didn’t dare to act recklessly. What she could do is staring at Miriam straight.

Miriam‘ imposing manner was so strong that she felt lingering fear in her heart.

Why could a small secretary be so arrogant in front of her?

Lamont, who was in the study, looked at the data on the computer, frowning.

Since the Mullen family lost power, a great impact was caused. Now the Aylward family might be about to act.

He closed the laptop in front of him, and a plan came into his mind. He tried to save the Mullen family.

At this moment, vaguely, he heard someone talking outside.

It was very late, Lamont got up slowly and came to the door, only then could he hear more clearly.

He recognized Miriam’s voice immediately.

She was having a dispute with Leila.

His face was still frosty. He walked to the window of the study with his hands behind his back, looking at the stars in the sky, but he still couldn’t make up his mind.

It would be his heart disease not to solve the misunderstanding with Amelie.

At that moment, Amelie was also awake. She was waiting for news from Jeff.

Leila returned home according to the plan, then a good show was about to begin.

At noon two days later, the sun was bright and the breeze was gentle. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

In front of a big iron gate stood a woman with big white legs.

That woman was Leila, and she came to the prison to visit Macey.

After returning home, she not only wanted to win back Lamont, but everything she deserved. Since her aunt went to prison, she had been cautious abroad, for fear that if she made a wrong move, everything would be ruined.

The staff led her to come to the visiting room.

A haggard–looking woman appeared at the door. There were chains on her hands and her feet.

“Auntie.”

Leila tapped on the window lightly, then grabbed the phone.

Seeing that the person who came was actually Leila, Macey was a little flustered, because she didn’t expect that Leila would return home.

She quickly grabbed the phone and stared at the woman in front of her in shock,

“Why did you come back?”

“Auntie, the Mullen family is bankrupt now, shouldn’t I come back? Don’t worry, no one can do anything to me!”

Leila was still very confident, thinking that her return could certainly benefit her.

“It’s not a good time for you to come back…” Macey said strictly, staring at Leila with deep eyes.

“What do you mean? Auntie, why do you say that…”

Leila had a bad premonition, and couldn’t help but clutch the phone tightly.

“Lamont will never let it go. He has already begun to investigate the death of Grandpa, and he also knows a lot about the past. If you come back now, isn’t it just a trap?”

After hearing what Macey said, Leila’s pupils dilated with an expression of shock.

“He has already known?”

Leila suddenly realized the change in Lamont’s attitude towards her, and only then did she understand.

“How did this happen? He, he will definitely find out about me. What should I do? If he knows the truth, then, wouldn’t it be impossible for me to marry him?”

She felt that she had completely revealed herself, and she didn’t know what would happen to her next.

“Hmph, so what if he has doubts? Isn’t there still no progress now? Don’t worry. The most important thing for you now is to marry him as soon as possible, so that he can’t get rid of you.”

Macey said excitedly, as if their marriage was inevitable.

Even if she was in prison, she could still succeed.

“Auntie, I really want to marry Lamont as soon as possible, but his attitude towards me is very cold now, and he won’t let me get close at all.”

Leila felt distressed.

The reason why she returned home in such a hurry was because she was worried that Lamont would fall in love with Amelie.

“Silly girl, there are many methods, and it depends on you whether you will use them or not.”

Macey’s sinister smile made Leila’s hair stand on end.

“Auntie, you mean…”

“You should just…”

Now that the situation in the Mullen family was very serious, Amelie simply planned to rest at ease in the hospital.

Fortunately, she had handed over the company to someone she trusted in time, so she felt at ease.

In the past two days, the ward was much quieter, and even Lamont never came again.

As long as she thought of Lamont, she felt pain in her heart.

She always recalled the past involuntarily, and those memories repeatedly tell her what hate was.

The door of the ward was knocked. Amelie collected her mood, and looked at the door calmly.

It was Rex Mullen who walked in.

“How do you feel? Is it better?”

Rex looked at the weak Arnelie, and his heart ached.

“It’s much better. Is everyone in the family okay?”

What Amelie cared about was her family.

With such a big incident happening in the Mullen family, what she worried most is that her family would be overwhelmed.

“Don’t worry. Everything has been arranged, and nothing bad will happen.”

After hearing the assurance from Rex, Amelie was completely relieved.

“That’s good, Rex, I’m fine. You can do whatever you need to do and there is no need to spend your time in visiting me.”

“What are you talking about!” Rex said dissatisfiedly, and then put a box on the table.

“I brought you your favorite lychees and cakes. You’re not feeling well these days, and your appetite must not be very good. These are your favorite foods, try some.”

Rex was very thoughtful, and he took out the lychees that had already been peeled from the box.

“Go on.”

“Thank you, Rex.”

She took the box, looked at the lychees inside, and felt very moved.

“There is no need to say thank you to me. Don’t worry, I will definitely not let you be in any danger!”

Rex Mullen said firmly.
