The Jilted Heiress' Return To The High Life

Chapter 960:noveldrama

But Andromache’s patience had already worn thin. Her sharp gaze cut through Leah like a blade. “Ms. Burgess, mind your words.”

The Burgess family was as good as finished, and with it, every resource she had poured into them. The frustration burning within her had no outlet, and Leah, too blind to read the room, had just made herself an easy target for contempt.

No wonder Leah had fallen for Corrine’s schemes time and again.

Leah stood frozen, watching Andromache’s retreating figure, realizing with a sinking heart—she had lost all her lifelines.

In the meeting room, Brannon sat stiffly, glancing around at the individuals who were on Corrine’s side.

A wave of unease settled over him. Had he gone too far earlier?

Outside the police station, the golden sunlight painted everything in a soft, ethereal glow.

Arion, having fully grasped the situation from Jules, was livid. His voice carried the weight of an iron-clad promise. “Corrine, rest assured, I will see to it that Corey receives the harshest punishment the law allows!”

Corrine nodded, her cool voice laced with exhaustion. “I’ll leave the rest in your hands.”

“Don’t worry.” Arion watched as she got into Nate’s car, his expression unwavering.

After she left, Jayden turned to Arion, his words deliberate. “Keeping Brannon around will only invite future trouble.”

A man like that, so clearly in Andromache’s pocket, couldn’t be allowed to linger.

“I’ve already made arrangements. His fate will be sealed by tomorrow.” Arion’s response was firm.

Jayden gave a satisfied nod. “Make sure to uproot any allies protecting him as well.”

In politics, everyone knew the game.

Brannon’s arrogance within the police force had only been possible because he had powerful backers.

Whether it was Andromache or someone else, one thing was clear—anyone who dared to move against Corrine had just signed their own invitation to ruin.

Just then, Wilbur approached with a cautious expression. “Mr. Hoffman, what should we do about the injured thugs’ family members causing trouble?”

Arion’s demeanor turned sharp. “Handle them by the book. Issue warnings where necessary and arrests where required!”

Jayden’s eyes glinted coldly. “Take whatever measures you see fit. I’ll take care of the official reports.”

Hearing this, Wilbur, who had yet to walk far, felt a chill snake down his spine.

He silently congratulated himself for choosing neutrality instead of siding with Brannon.

Within an hour, news spread like wildfire across the internet that Burgess Group had been shut down. People also learned that Corey and Leah had been taken by the police for questioning.
