My Husband’s Mistress Fed Me Bugs Chapter 17

Chiara had been pampered her entire life. She’d never been treated like this.

She froze.

“Grandpa, why did you kick me?”

She had just been treated, and the jolt tore at her stitches.

Blood quickly began to seep through the bandages.

Normally, Mr. Ricci would have been overwhelmed with concern.

But now, all he cared about was cutting his losses.

“Go find Estelle Hayes.”

“We have to go to her, personally, and beg.”

“Beg her?”

Chiara, wincing in pain, tried to stand.

Afraid she would say something else to make things worse, an assistant quickly explained who Estelle really was.

After hearing the truth, she stood rooted to the spot for a long, long time.

Mr. DeLuca and Mr. Ricci were already rushing out, trying to find a way to contact me.

At that moment, I was sitting in the estate, calmly watching the stock charts on a tablet.

I had thought the DeLucas and Riccis might hold out for a little while.

They were far weaker than I’d expected.

The security at this estate was impenetrable.

As long as I didn’t want to be found, they couldn’t find me.

Three days later, both companies declared bankruptcy.

The news was everywhere.

Everyone was guessing which titan of industry the two prominent New York families had offended to be crushed so thoroughly, so quickly.

Orion could no longer afford to rest.

He was pushed out of the hospital in a wheelchair by his assistant.

He was, after all, just his father’s illegitimate son.

If I hadn’t helped him strategize, if I hadn’t cleared a path for him, he never would have reached his current position.

But he thought my name wasn’t good enough and let Chiara use me as a plaything.

So now, I would take back everything I had given him.

I would send him right back where he came from.
