The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 399

Chapter 399 Back Where She Belongs

“You–what are you trying to do?!”

Naomi backed away in fear, instinctively shielding her belly. I’m carrying a Hartwell child! If you dare be finger on me. Nathaniel will never let you get away with it! And you any of you touch me, and you’ll d up just like Matteo!”

“Ms. Naomi, you’ve misunderstood,” Matteo replied with a calm smile that chilled the air. “We’re here to take you home.”

That smile sent a shiver down Naomi’s spine.

“Escort Ms. Sue out of here.”

“Yes, sir.”

A few of Matteo’s men stepped forward.

Naomi barely had time to react before she was seized and dragged away.

As they were leaving, Matteo glanced down at Christian, who was still trembling on the floor like a spineless wreck.

He crouched beside him and asked, “You Naomi’s lover?”

Christían panicked when he realized Matteo knew. He shook his head furiously. “No! No! I don’t even know that woman!”

Matteo gave his shoulder a light tap. “Then stay put. Don’t let me catch you planning to leave the country. I’ll need you again–in a year.”

Christian had no idea what Matteo meant.

But one thing was clear.

He was forbidden from leaving the country.

And someone would be watching him for the next year.

Not long after, Naomi was hauled downstairs and shoved into the back seat–relatively gently, all things considered.

Soon after, Matteo got into the car.

When she saw him, Naomi’s face was full of terror. She was convinced Matteo was taking her somewhere to bury her alive.

“Matteo! Are you listening?! If you dare hurt me, Nathaniel will make you pay!”

He’d heard that same threat so many times, it was starting to bore him.

To shut her up, he gave a simple hand signal, and someone immediately gagged her.

Naomi’s cries were muffled. Her face twisted in discomfort.

But when the car pulled up in front of the Hartwell estate, Naomi froze

He wasn’t going to kill her?

No way.

Inside the Hartwell mansion….

Matteo dragged Naomi straight to the main entrance.

Nathaniel, who had been about to lash out at Matteo for being useless, suddenly stopped mid–rant when he saw the woman standing behind him.

“Naomi?”

“Mm–mmph!”

Naomi struggled to speak. One of the men quickly removed her gag.

Nathaniel looked at Matteo. “Sorry, Ms. Sue was too loud on the way here. I didn’t want the cops getting involved.”

Naomi, humiliated but helpless, shot Matteo a glare.

Then she flung herself into Nathaniel’s arms. “It was so scary…”

But Nathaniel was already sick of the sight of her. Her scarred face, her whining, the chaos she caused–it all disgusted him.

Without a word, he slapped her across the face.

Naomi fell hard to the floor, stunned.

She looked up at him in disbelief. “You… you hit me?”

“Why? You need me to spell it out?” he roared. “You stupid b*tch! You cause trouble everywhere, even dared to go after that Sue brat Eliza! What the hell won’t you do? Do you have any idea how much you’ve embarrassed me?!”

Word had already spread about Halbert storming into the Hartwell home.

A boy from the Sue family dared humiliate him on his own turf.

Everyone knew about it.
