Chapter 95
Mera
I folded my arms and sneered, “Caitlyn, do you really think I’m that easy to manipulate? Let me remind you once more, Leland has always relied on my family. So if you’re planning to take me down, you better make sure you’ve got the chops for it.”
Caitlyn wanted to say more, but I slammed the door shut with a loud “bang.”
“Damn it! How could I be that cowardly?
Everyone seemed to want to take advantage of me.
But it just didn’t matter anymore. My heart was already shattered, so why should I even bother worrying about Caitlyn and Leland anymore?
I completed all the design drafts and called Allen. We discussed the details of tomorrow’s collaboration. He mentioned an old friend would come with him to talk about the partnership.
I am somewhat curious about his old friend.
But since Caitlyn and Leland have repeatedly pushed me, I would fight back with all my strength.
At the same time, I had decided to leave because my new ID had arrived in the country, and I could retrieve it in three days.
The day after my parents’ anniversary was the annual meeting. I would leave this place on the afternoon flight at 2 PM that day.
Tomorrow, experts would consult on Leland’s illness. Caitlyn wanted to stop it, which was suspicious.
So, I would have to ask the doctors to come to the house privately.
I really wanted to know what Leland was planning.
Why was he so determined to give my property to Caitlyn? Was it really just because he deeply loved Caitlyn?
At this moment, Caitlyn sent me a text, “Kaylie, Leland and I are heading out for a candlelit dinner. Are you jealous? Tough luck, because I’m not taking you. I just want to enjoy your husband.”
Seeing the message, I rolled my eyes and replied, “Have_fun.”
After replying, I couldn’t help but cry again. I told myself not to cry, so why was I crying?
Hugging the pillow, I trembled, and past memories came to my mind like a movie.
The pain in my heart made it hard to breathe. I told myself to calm down.
I thought, Kaylie, calm down. Without Leland, you are still you. You’ve grown up, and it’s time you learn to be strong and independent.”
Opening the door, I shivered. The villa was cold and empty, Johan would never come back here again.
I arranged for Johan’s son, Efrain, to work in the Security Department. His skills were more than enough to be my bodyguard, but I no longer needed a bodyguard in San Francisco anymore.
I was about to leave.
At that moment, Denise called out,”Kay, I uncovered a huge secret. Caitlyn is having an affair with Dr. Sheppard, the one who treats Mr. Pearson. Plus, the hospital says Dr. Sheppard gave Caitlyn some forged medical records.”
