Vengeful Hearts Return Novel by Susan Clyde

When Audrey walked in, a steady and elegant figure was making coffee.

Although it was only his back view, he looked elegant and noble. The blue suit he was wearing made him look even more elegant.

Hearing footsteps behind him, his calm and gentle voice sounded. “You’re here. Have a seat.

Audrey walked forward and sat at the table. Only then did she see what the man looked like.

The man was about 30 to 40 years old and exuded grace. It was not until Audrey sat down that he slowly turned around.

His black eyes landed on Audrey’s face. His gaze paused for a moment before he chuckled. “Auddie, you have grown up. You look so much like your mother.”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

This was not the first time someone had said this. Almost everyone who had seen Audrey and her mother would say this. Audrey remained calm. Her gaze landed on the man. Her expression was calm, and there was a faint arrogance around her. The man looking at her smiled again and said gently, “Even your temperament is the same.”

Audrey and her mother had the same pride, the same flamboyant self–confidence, and the same way of stunning everyone around them.

“Kam Troy Callahan. You can also call me Troy like you did when you were young,” Troy said.

Hearing Troy’s words, Audrey was slightly stunned. Then, she looked at Troy and sized him up. She never remembered Vivienne had a younger friend whose last name was Callahan.

As if seeing the confusion in Audrey’s eyes, Troy only smiled lightly and explained patiently, “I’m not related to your mother. Your mother saved my life more than twenty years ago, so my life belongs to her. She also took care of me when I was growing up.”

At the mention of the past, Troy’s expression became even gentler.

After a while, Audrey looked at Troy indifferently and said, “I don’t remember you.”

“Yes, I know.” Troy nodded and looked at Audrey. “Your mother once said that if you choose to live your life peacefully, I don’t need to appear before you. But if you grow strong enough one day, I have to hand everything to you.”

“What do you mean?” Audrey did not understand.

“It means that from now on, I, and all your mother’s former subordinates, will listen to your orders.” Troy’s eyes were deep as he looked at Audrey.

Audrey looked at Troy in surprise, her eyes flashing. In her memory, Vivienne was a gentle mother. “What kind of person is my mother?”

Troy’s deep gaze

fell on Audrey’s face. He seemed dazzled. Then he smiled and said proudly, “She’s a stunning woman.” Audrey’s gaze gleamed. Actually, judging by the person she met last time, she knew that the mother of her host was not simple. However, she did not expect the person in front of her to have such a high evaluation of Vivienne.

However, since Vivienne was so powerful, Audrey didn’t know how she was killed by William and Rebecca back then. She felt that there was probably another reason. After all, William and Rebecca were probably nothing to Vivienne.

Audrey narrowed her eyes. She thought of something and asked “This mall belongs to my mother too? Did you give us the black card just now?”

“Yes. To be precise, everything under JS Group belongs to your mother. JS’s business district is only a small part of it.” Troy smiled and raised his eyebrows slightly. There was a hint of pride in his tone.

Audrey was a little surprised.

JS Group, the former business empire of Chritonia, suddenly went quiet at its peak more than ten years ago. Audrey wondered if it suddenly went quiet because of her mother’s sudden demise.

Thinking of this, Audrey did not expect JS Group to belong to her host’s mother. “What if I don’t accept it?”

Troy glanced at Audrey and slowly poured her a cup of coffee. He then picked up the cup of coffee in front of him and took mother’s a sip before saying lightly, “You’re very smart. You should know that William isn’t your biological father. With your ability, William and that mistress’s intelligence, they can’t touch your mother at all. If the mastermind could deal with your mother back then, they can also deal with you.”

Troy did not explicitly call out names but Audrey already understood. She had already been targeted.

Thinking of this, Audrey frowned slightly. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across her cold eyes as she looked coldly at Troy. “How much did you find out?”

The corners of Troy’s lips curled up as he smiled. “You are indeed taught by your mother.”

“Speak clearly.” Audrey glared at Troy coldly.

The smile on Troy’s lips disappeared, and his expression became more serious as he looked at Audrey. “I’ve been investigating since your mother died, but I haven’t found much. I can’t tell you for now. The more you know, the more dangerous it is for you now. I can only tell you the people behind it were involved when you were imprisoned seven years ago. Claire and Sarah were just pawns in their hands.”

Audrey’s expression twisted slightly. She automatically recalled the flawless trap from seven years ago.

Troy sighed. “This is also why your mother sealed your memories before you were five years old. She hoped you would grow up peacefully and happily. She would rather bear everything alone than let you lead a tiring life like hers. The Clifford family was chosen by your mother back then. She wanted you to lead a simple and happy life. But in the end, you escape the fate of being targeted by the mastermind. Since you’ve been targeted, you can’t decide your future.”

can’t

At this point, Troy’s expression turned cold. The calmness on his face had already disappeared, and his easygoing manner had become serious and cold. “Audrey, you’re still too weak now. You need to make yourself stronger because your enemies are too powerful.”

After a while, Audrey narrowed her eyes and looked at Troy icily “What’s the relationship between Nightshade Alliance and my mother?”

Troy’s eyes flashed. He glanced at Audrey and sneered, “The people from Nightshade Alliance touched you?” He scoffed.

“How dare he.”

The smile on Troy’s face was cold and mocking.

Audrey raised her eyebrows and looked at Troy.

Troy had already restrained the expression on his face. “Don’t worry. When the time comes, he’ll regret it.” He snorted lightly and looked at Audrey. “When you have time, I’ll bring you to meet a few people.”

Audrey looked at Troy and did not answer. She frowned slightly and said after a moment, “Have you ever thought that maybe I’m not the real Audrey?”

Troy looked at Audrey for a long time before saying seriously, “Audrey, no matter what you become, you’ve always been Audrey. You’re only Audrey.”

Audrey’s frown deepened. It was as if no one had ever suspected that she was not the real Audrey.

Dylan was the same, as did the man who had appeared before. And now Troy too…
