The cost

Mis gently rubbed her tired eyes as she slowly pushed open the door to the master bedroom on the second floor.

“Oh. Mia, you’re back Logan said a warm smile from his bed. “Come on and it

Mia nodded and took a seat beside the bed, unable to stop the tears that began to flour

“Hey, why are you crying? Logan asked tenderly wiping her cheeks with his frail hand. “Stop crying good girl.”

Logan was all too aware of his failing health. “Mia, you need to be strong, even if I’m not around”

ich in the past five years.

Mia held Logan’s hard tightly and said, “Grandpa, you’re going to get better, right?” She had missed our on so much

Seeing Mia so vulnerable and tearful was almost too much for Logan. He had come to terminal lung cancer with no chance of cure, and he was just making medications to slow the spread.

“Sure, I’ll get better.” Logan reassured her, not wanting to shatter her last bit of hope.

“Grandpa, don’t worry” Mia whispered softly. The Eldoris Group won’t fail, especially now that we’re partnering with the Blackwood Group. FIE make sure of it.” She would take the opportunity to bring a transformation to the company,

Logan caressed Mia’s hair, his hand as comforting as it was when she was a child.

Sobbing, Mia implored, “Take care of yourself, Grandpa. Please take care. As soon as everything in the company is settled. I’ll come to visit you,

Eliot, who had been waiting outside, checked his watch and informed her, “Ms. Reed, Mr. Reed’s private jet has arrived”

“Okay” Mix responded, quickly drying her tears though her face still spoke of her reluctance.

Eliot signaled to the door, and Logan’s bodyguards along with his personal secretary, Samuel Bridge, promptly responded.

As Logan’s bed was wheeled away, he looked at Mia and manmured, ‘Be careful Mia “Despite his illness. Logan was far from senile. With the family members mysteriously dying one after another, he suspected that they were being targeted

“Alright,” Mix replied, her heart heavy as she watched Logan’s jet disappear into the distance.

Sering Mia distressed, Eliot reassured her. “Ms. Reed, don’t worry. My father, Samuel, was a formidable ally of Mr. Reed in his younger days. He will take excellent care of Mr. Heed”

Before Mia could reply. David and his family arrived in a rush at the airstrip. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

“Mia, why wouldn’t you let me see Dad David asked, his brow furrowed. He was dismayed to find that his father had eyes only for M and had nothing to say to him. Was their fate really to be manipulated by Mu?

With crocodile tears in her eyes, Kirsten lamented. Grandpa… Mia, why didn’t you let us say goodbye?”

Ivan looked beaten and bruised, clearly unable to hide his loss of 16 million dollars from David. “Yeah, Mia, are you trying to keep some of Grandpa’s plans from us?” Ivan glared at Mia, his hatred palpable. If you hadn’t sneaked on me. I wouldn’t have ended up so miserable, he thought

With a snort, Mia arched her eyebrows and shot back, Ivan, are you itching for another snack Asking for trouble was the natural ability of their family.

Turning to David with a stern look, Mia warned, “My dear uncle. I’ve let your past tricks with the company slide. But if you overreach again just expect my wrath”

David paused, his face a mix of emotions.

After her declaration, Mix spun around and walked away, leaving a striking figure behind. She actually held solid evidence of David’s corruption but felt it unnecessary to disclose it just yet. There were still things Mia needed to confirm.

David and his family lacked the means to orchestrate the mysterious deaths among the family, or to concoct the shocking scandal from five

years aga. However, it didn’t mean they were innocent……

“Dad, what exactly is Mia implying?” Kirsten’s voice trembled. He seemed to sense the end of their privileged days.

With gritted teeth, Ivan hissed, “That bitch is threatening Dad! She’s got something on him!”

Sixteen million dollars! Where could he possibly find that amount Realizing he could no longer get funds from the Eldoria Group, Ivan had choice but to beg David. “Dad: I’m your own son! You have to help me! If it weren’t for that bitch, I wouldn’t be in this mess. Pushed to the edge, I might just have her killed!

12:05 PM

David, still seething from Mia’s scolding, angrily threw two slaps on Ivan’s face. “You’re a disgrace! What nonsense are you spouting? You wanna get the whole family thrown in jail?

Kirsten cautiously stepped aside, wary of catching any flak. Her gaze nurned sinister as she murmured, “I know someone who’s itching to deal with Mix..” Kirsten was a networking pro, which made her pretty well–known in Pratu City’s high society.

Earlier that day, she noticed Ryan, the heir to Crest Core Enterprise, posting a blurry surveillance photo on Instagram with a few words. [Who can tell me who this bitch is Reward: 20 thousand dollars)

Kirsten instantly recognized the woman in the photo as Mia. “Dad. I have a plan…” she whispered to David.
