Chapter 1873
Melina’s laugh was cold and mocking.
“You know in your heart whether I’m speaking the truth.
If Franco really cared about you, why would he delay your engagement to me?”
Clenching his fists, Tyshawn retorted, “That’s just because our relationship isn’t seen as honorable, and Grandpa isn’t pleased with it.
”
“Really? Then tell me, why would your grandfather sabotage a union between the Mitchell and Glyn families instead of supporting your engagement to me? Do you honestly think he did this for your benefit? You are too naive, aren’t you?”
Tyshawn’s pupils narrowed sharply as he fixed Melina with an intense gaze.
Melina smiled subtly.
“I’m just reminding you.
Don’t forget our partnership.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
You need to think this through.
If your grandfather discovers the true purpose behind our engagement, I fear the consequences will be dire for you.
”
Her voice was soft, yet each word struck Tyshawn like a hammer, leaving him gasping for air.
It was Melina’s final remark that completely dismantled his defenses.
“Franco is the primary barrier preventing you from taking control of the Mitchell family.
Our plan cannot proceed without removing him from the picture.
”
Tyshawn swallowed hard, his eyes involuntarily seeking out Franco in the distance.
“You… You want me to kill my own grandfather?” he stammered, disbelief coloring his tone.
Melina’s smile turned sinister, her voice dropping to a ghostly, alluring whisper.
“I didn’t say that.
It’s up to you, Tyshawn.
Decide whether you want to keep the Mitchell family legacy in your hands or not.
”
Melina shrugged vacantly.
“You’ll have to do it at some point anyway.
Why not do it right away and be done with it?”
Hearing her comment, Tyshawn stared at Melina with furrowed brows before growling at her.
“I don’t need you to tell me what to do!”
His reaction sent Melina’s eyebrow up.
She then smirked and walked away in her high heels.
Tyshawn had bloodshot eyes.
When she left, he shook his head and picked up the glass of wine.
As he took a swig, he looked in Franco’s direction and felt his fingers get cold.
At that moment, he thought about his plan with Melina.
He set his wine glass down and took a deep breath, then slowly made his way towards Franco.
“Grandpa.
”
Respect was evident in his tone.
Franco nodded and looked up at Tyshawn.
When he noticed he was hesitating to speak, he frowned.
“Do you have something to say?”
After a long silence, Tyshawn mustered up some courage.
“Grandpa, there are too many people here.
Can we go to your study later and talk in private, just you and me?”
Although Franco initially wanted to refuse him, he decided to reconsider.
“Alright.
Come with me upstairs in a while.
”
“Okay, Grandpa.
I understand.
”
Meanwhile, Hannah and Grace were chatting in the garden outside.
“Grace, what’re you doing out here? Why don’t you join the party and get something to eat?” Melina suddenly appeared in the garden and smiled kindly at Grace.
