The Supreme Heiress Chapter 14
Leah, who was genuinely angry, started to cough. Brianna quickly handed her a cup of tea and comforted her. "Madam, please don't get angry. The doctor said you can't get worked up because of your illness. Besides, it's your birthday celebration today. Let's discuss any issues afterward."Leah sighed at the mention of her illness. As she grew older, her health issues increased. In the past, when she used to be in good health, she had been able to manage the household well. However, with age catching up to her, she had gradually become less capable.Eventually, she’d had to delegate one-third of the company's management to Gemma and Melvin. The two of them unfortunately lacked the ability to run the company, leading to signs of decline in the Severin Group within a few years, which had been making Leah anxious.Now that another scandal was happening, Leah was even more distressed."Jade's really disappointing." Leah sighed, disappointment filling her eyes. The person she had carefull

As soon as Brianna opened the box, her smile froze.Leah looked at her, feeling puzzled. When she looked inside the box, her face fell abruptly as well."This is the gift you prepared for me?" Leah asked Melvin angrily.Melvin took a peek, and beads of sweat dotted his forehead. The box was empty, and the ancient bangle was nowhere to be seen."What's going on?" Melvin shouted at Gemma angrily.Gemma feigned panic and said, "I really don't know. Jade was in charge of the box."As soon as she spoke, everyone's gazes shifted back to Jade.Neve frowned and pretended to defend Jade. "Jade, don't mess with Grandma. Come on, show us the bangle."Jade calmly surveyed the crowd. Gemma was sipping her tea nervously. Seated beside Gemma, Neve had a smug expression on her face. Now, Leah's gaze on her was tinged with disappointment. Neve's words seemed to confirm that the bangle had been in Jade’s hands, so she was now unable to deny it. Even if she managed to bring the bangle back out, she wou

It was too late! Everyone had heard it.Melvin, who was both pale and flustered, looked at Gemma as if she were an idiot. Finally, he exploded in a rage and slapped her loudly. "Shut up, you wretch!"Gemma screamed, falling to the floor due to the force of Melvin's slap. Melvin was about to strike again, but Neve rushed over to shield her, pleading with him. "Dad, please don't hit Mom again. She knows she was wrong.""Gemma, you have some nerve." Leah was furious. Her face was livid as she glared at Gemma, and her eyes were flashing with authority.Gemma lost all her momentum and hurriedly apologized. "Mom, calm down. It's my fault. I won't dare do it again. It was a moment of confusion. Please forgive me this once.""I can see that you’ve been increasingly disregarding me over the years." Leah remained angry and kept looking sternly at Gemma. "Since you are so biased against me, just don't go to the company anymore. Vacate your position and let someone capable take over."As soo

Gemma gritted her teeth and snorted. She hadn't anticipated that the docile child she had been raising for over ten years would bite the hand that had been feeding her one day. What was even more hateful was that Leah had used today's incident to pick on her. It was truly maddening.Gemma thought for a moment, took out her phone, and dialed a number. "We need to move up our schedule."She had originally planned to let that old woman live a few more years. Since she was so heartless, though, she couldn't blame Gemma for being ruthless....After everyone left, Leah looked sternly at Jade and growled, "Jade, how very bold of you."Nothing could escape Leah's notice. Jade knew her tricks had been exposed, so she decided to admit everything."Grandma, I'm sorry. I was wrong." Jade apologized sincerely, tears glistening in her eyes as she looked at Leah.In her previous life, Leah had loved her the most. However, due to her own weakness, she had lost her life and had been unable to p

A hint of joy crossed Jade's heart, but she soon furrowed her brows. In her previous life, Leah had broken her leg during this birthday banquet, right after the Fitzgeralds had arrived. Unfortunately, Jade had been too timid at the time and hadn't seen how the incident had occurred. This time, she had to protect her grandmother. Jade instinctively supported Leah by her arm, assisting her toward the exit.Although she felt pleased in her heart, Leah said stubbornly, "I'm not that old. Why are you assisting me?" Leah had always been strong-willed, so she refused to admit she was growing old even in her seventies.Knowing her grandmother's mindset, Jade smiled. "I just want to be closer to you."After the splendid confrontation that had occurred earlier, Leah's perception of Jade had changed. Seeing Jade's genuine concern for her, she felt joyous and allowed Jade to assist her.Just as they walked out, Neve came in and witnessed the scene. She was somewhat shocked, as she wondered h

Unfortunately, Leah had seen through her little tricks long ago. Neve was intercepted by Brianna, who greeted her with a pleasant smile. "Ms. Neve, your hand is injured. Let me bandage it up for you."Neve could only watch helplessly as Jade supported Leah and headed toward the entrance.Not far away, the Fitzgerald convoy was already approaching. The luxurious fleet stopped in front of the villa, and the door of the leading Hummer opened, revealing a pair of long legs.The moment the door opened, it seemed as if a spotlight shone down on Caelan. Regardless of the occasion, he always stood out, making it impossible for people to ignore him.Caelan then helped out an elderly man with graying hair. The old man was in traditional attire, and he was wearing a pair of handmade cloth shoes. Despite his age, he stood tall and walked with vigor, and even though his face was covered in wrinkles, his eyes were extremely sharp and gave off a sense of authority and wisdom.Jade was a bit shoc

The light was blocked, so the room was dim. Caelan stood frostily at the door, his gaze on Jade unusually icy, as if he was looking at his arch-enemy."Mr. Fitzgerald, what are you doing?" Trying to make Caelan speak first was like asking for the moon, so Jade had to take the initiative.Caelan's tall figure loomed over her like a mountain pressing down on her, suffocating her. The pervasive chill coming from him felt like it could freeze everything in its vicinity."I won't marry you," he stated curtly. It wasn't a negotiation tactic, but more of a command. Just like the man himself, authoritative and unyielding, not leaving any room for compromise.Suddenly, Jade realized what was going on. No wonder Caelan never looked happy to see her. This was the issue.Earlier, she had pondered how Leah's leg had gotten injured, but she had forgotten one crucial detail.In her previous lifetime, Neve had been the favorite, so Leah had intentionally tried to set Caelan up with her. At the t

Jade stepped forward, retrieving bandages and some antiseptic from the medical kit as she addressed Caelan. "Mr. Kennedy's injury is our priority. Let me bandage it up first."Caelan's gaze shifted to Jade. Meeting her clear eyes, he declined. "We have a professional medical team. Thanks, but no thanks, Ms. Jade."As it turned out, he didn't trust her medical skills. It wasn't just Caelan. Even Leah appeared surprised. She knew Jade very well and understood that medicine was not her expertise."Jade, don't be foolish," Leah said, signaling for her not to insist.Jade didn't want to make a scene, but the injury on Kennedy's ankle was severe. If she didn't intervene, his treatment might be delayed."If we wait for the Fitzgeralds’ professional medical team, Mr. Kennedy's wound might deteriorate. If it gets infected, will you take responsibility?" Jade asked Caelan calmly.This was the first time she had confronted him head-on since her rebirth, and it was far from the warm and tend
