Chapter 51
Likewise, as the daughter of a mistress, Blanca was no pushover either. From her perspective, the 500 million dollars given to Miles, plus the profits, the properties, and the dowry—all of that should have been hers.
And now, all of it had been handed over so cheaply to Miles and Lians, that pair of siblings. How could she possibly not be furious?
Miles only managed to tum things around because of Sebastian. Not only did Miles want to cling to Sebastian, but even Liana was trying to latch onto him too. Would Blanca allow that? Of course not. She was dead set on sabotaging them.
That was why, when it came to the incident of Sebastian getting drugged, Roxanne suspected that Bianca was the third person involved.
Why not Liana? Because Liana wouldn’t be dumb enough to shove Sebastian straight into Roxanne’s arms.
Roxanne gave Bianca a polite smile. “There’s nothing I can do. Sebastian won’t let me have children. Maybe he’d rather let Liana carry his children.”
Sure enough, the moment she said that, Bianca’s expression changed. In fact, Bianca hated the idea of Sebastian being tied to Liana even more than Roxanne did.
Over the years, Roxanne may have been Sebastian’s girlfriend, but anyone could see that Liana held a special place in his heart.
Blanca sighed, putting on a show as she took Roxanne’s hand “Rox, you’re the one who’s his girlfriend, his fiancée. You should step up. Liana is just a petty homewrecker with no place at the table.”
Roxanne let out a bitter laugh. “Sebastian and I already called off the engagement. I’m not his fiancée anymore. I’ve held on for so many years, but I’m exhausted. I’ve decided to let go.”
“You can’t give up!” Blanca panicked.
s girlfriend, that means he acknowledges
“Sebastian doesn’t like Liana. He’s only treating her differently because of Miles” death. If he’s given you the title of his girlf you. If you give up now, you’ll be playing right into Liana’s hands!”
Roxanne’s face was full of despair. “There’s nothing I can do. Sebastian and I had been a mistake from the start. You know what happened. Back then, after we slept together, everyone said 1 drugged him. Even Sebastian believed it
“He has always thought of me as a manipulative woman, thinking that I had gone to great lengths to sleep with him. How could he ever marry me? The engagement party was just a way to save my reputation. I can’t explain what really happened, and I don’t want to anymore. I’m tired.”
With that, Roxanne brushed off Bianca’s hand and walked away in a daze. When she tumed back at the comer, she saw Bianca standing there, her expression dark and contemplative as if she had just made a big decision
Bianca walked out of the pharmacy.
Roxanne was now almost certain that Blanca had been involved in drugging Sebastian back then. But she still wanted to test her.
As Bianca stepped outside, Roxanne called out, “If you were the one who drugged him back then, sprain your ankle!”
The next moment, Bianca’s scream pierced the air.
The comers of Roxanne’s lips curled into a cold smile. So, it was Blanca.
She watched as Bianca scrambled up, one beel broken off her shoe. Cursing under her breath, Bianca hobbled away.
Rozanne’s phone chimed with a message from Zachary.
“Plane ticket, one week from now,
She replied with a simple “Okay,” and then quietly deleted the message,
Roxane took a cab back to the villa. The lights inside were all on. She paused in surprise when she saw Sebastian’s tall figure sitting calmly on the couch.
foxarte was surprised. He was back already? He was not at the hospital with Liana?
Sebastian looked up when he saw her, offering a slight smile and gesturing toward the empty seat beside him. “Come here.”
