The True Heiress's Return

With her clothes sticking to her damp skin, Yvette had no time to play those money-minded games with Lago. She thought about the huge embarrassinent she faced today-getting into the police station, being scolded by Finn, and then being inexplicably soaked in the rain...

Yvette was fuming and left in a huff without saying anything. "If you're not going to tell me, then just forget it," said Yvette.

"Hey, don't leave, my daughter." Jessie was anxious and blurted it, "Mitchell isn't dead. Shakira went to see Mitchell."

"What did you say? Mitchell isn't dead? How can he not be dead, Yvette shivered and spun around, with her eyes wide open.

"How could Mitchell possibly be alive? How could he still be alive when his sports car fell from such a tall mountain and was smashed into pieces?" she continued.

Her mind was in chaos, and as she spoke, she started to panic. After all, to this day, Mitchell's whereabouts were still unknown, neither alive nor dead.

Seeing Lago's calm demeanor, she suddenly screamed in both fear and anger. "Lago, what are you doing? Mitchell isn't dead, so why are you all acting so calm like nothing's going on?"

If Mitchell was alive, he might already know everything. Once the Nelson family found out about Mitchell's whereabouts, she was finished and all that she had painstakingly planned would be destroyed.

"What's the rush? Mitchell isn't dead, but if he could actually do something, he would've shown up by now. Could Shakira really have kept him hidden all this time?" said Lago.

These words slightly calmed Yvette. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "What do you mean?"

Jessie couldn't stand seeing her daughter so panicked and quickly chimed in. "Mitchell's in a coma; he hasn't woken up yet."

"What? Enough already. Can't you just explain it all at once?" Yvette was nearly at her wit's end.

Lago glanced at Jessie. "You asked me to have someone keep an eye on Shakira to catch her having an affair with Yonder Digital's Sean so that Walter would completely despise her. The private detective I hired followed her to a beauty clinic today. "Halfway through, she went with a man to the top floor, which was an inpatient department. They were in a room for a while before leaving. The detective slipped in while the nurse was dozing off only to see a man on the bed."

As he spoke, Lago opened the photos sent by the detective and showed them to Yvette.

Yvette took the photos. The man lying on the bed, looking healthy though his eyes shut, was none other than Mitchell-who else could it be? He had gotten some luck; he survived even that accident. Clutching her phone tightly, Yvette suddenly realized and her eyes were burning with hatred. "So that's it, Shakira. You claim you're done with the Nelson family and have no more plans.

"But, secretly you've gone to great lengths to hide Mitchell, just waiting for him to wake up to expose my true colors to the family so that they can kick me out and make you the Nelson heiress again." "In your dreams, The Nelson family is mine. Even if you manage to go back, it will only be after I've kicked everything out. Then you can babysit those useless fools," said Yvette.

The phone screen had turned off, and Yvette's nearly twisted, crazed expression was reflected in the black mirror.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Silly kid, now that we know where Mitchell is, none of Shakira's plans can succeed," said Lago.

Lago added, "I called you over because I'm afraid you'd be too excited about this news and slip up at the Nelson residence?

"Yes, yes, it's a good thing, Yvette. You were clever enough to get Dad's people to follow her; otherwise, we'd have never found out this," Jessie said with a proud smile. "No wonder you're my daughter." Yvette tossed the phone back to Lago, fixed her expression, and returned to her usual proud and confident demeanor.

"Shakira crossed me, so I won't let her get away with it. Even though I can't catch her and Sean, this is an unexpected bonus, said Yvette.

There was a dark glint in Yvette's eyes. She said, "This time, I'll handle him myself."

"You're going by yourself? What if you get caught? asked Lago.

"Can't you figure out a way to make sure they don't find out?" Yvette said with disdain. "You can't even handle this. How could you get the Nelson's money," said Yvette.

"Sure, I can handle it. There's no rush. Let me figure something out." Lago laughed, rubbing his hands together.

"I heard most of the stores outside have been bought up, right? The brand of my daughter will soon hit the market, and it'll surely become something everyone wants to get their hands on," added Lago.

Lago paused, showing a greedy look in his eyes. "I've got some machines, all meeting your factory's standards. How about letting me share some of the work," said Lago.

Yvette saw right through him. "You're just trying to get a share, aren't you?"

"You silly child, my money is yours. I'm just worried that the factory of the Nelson family won't manage the production demands," Lago said with confidence.

Yvette thought about it. "Alright, but you'll have to wait until the second batch. Just to be safe."

"Okay, okay." Lago grinned widely.

Jessie watched them, smiling widely, and couldn't help but say, "It seems like this seal-borrowing method really works. My daughter is not only beautiful but also smart. You can be the boss of a big company and handle things with ease." Yvette raised an eyebrow and instinctively touched her face. "Really?"

Lago gave her a serious look. "You're definitely more stylish than before, with a strong presence."

Upon hearing this, Yvette felt smug but also a bit resentful. "Since this seal-borrowing method works, why didn't we use it earlier? It was such a hassle having to constantly ask Shakira for help. It's so frustrating." "That's different," replied Lago.

Lago explained, "It's a balancing act. As You live with the Nelson family, when things are good there, you also benefit.

"If we'd used this method back then, your brothers would just have been a burden and held you back. As the Nelson family is in a tough spot, there's no choice but to use this."

Jessie agreed. "Exactly. Borrowing spirit energy is something you can do quietly, but borrowing the seal is a whole different matter. If Cody wasn't involved, we don't know if we could even make it happen." Yvette shrugged. "Alright, got it."

The next morning, Shakira told Levi that she and Walter would be going out with friends in the afternoon.

Upon hearing this, Levi's face changed.

He was so emotional that he almost cried. Shakira thought he was worried something might happen. "Don't worry, Levi. I'll make sure Walter is well taken care of."

"Of course, I trust you'll look after Mr. Lopez." Levi took a deep breath and smiled with relief. "I never expected to see this day. Mr. Lopez has you and friends and is ready to enjoy life. This is truly wonderful to see." Shakira was speechless.

Shakira had a hunch that Levi had read too many CEO romance novels too.

After lunch, Shakira bundled Walter up so thoroughly that only his straight nose was visible.

Nodding with satisfaction, she led him out the door.
