Queen Revenge

Chapter 17: Tina Deross knows my secrets



I settled down, replaced my smile, and said solicitously, “Honey, you’re hungry after such a long meeting, I brought you lunch.”

I opened the boxed lunches and set them out one by one, handing the chopsticks over very curtly, and when Walker Richter didn’t respond, I called out again, “Honey?”

Walker Richter glanced blandly at the meal on the table, and with a clatter, surprisingly swept it all straight into the trash.

The tone was comparable to the December weather in the northern city, cold to the bone.

“Bella Hill, don’t ever do this useless ingratiating again, get out.”

Those last two words were almost yelled.

I didn’t react for half a second, although I knew Walker Richter was shady, it was the first time I’d seen him so angry, and every word shook my head.

It’s eating a bag of dynamite.

Looking at Walker Richter’s cold face, I clenched the chopsticks in my hand.

Anyone can lose their temper when they’re yelled at like that, but how many people dare to lose their temper in front of Walker Richter?

I gritted my teeth, tempted to keep the fire down, I’d given too many people smiles to make a living, but looking at the meal in the trash, the fire rubbed off.

I didn’t eat a bite of my own. When I lived in the basement, I was often so hungry that I couldn’t even afford to buy bread, and when I was imprisoned by Bella Hill, I was starving, and I could have swallowed a rancid meal, not to mention such a good one.

The fire grew, I yelled right back, “Walker Richter, don’t you know what you’re talking about, who do you think you are, if I’m willing to hold you up right now, you’re a grandpa, if I’m not happy, what are you.”

Walker Richter froze at my yelling, and even Emily, who then followed Walker Richter in, froze in the doorway, afraid to come in.

I broke the chopsticks in my hand and dropped them at Walker Richter’s feet, and at that moment I couldn’t care less about my original plan and just left the office.

Trying to get Walker Richter to fall in love with me, that’s too hard.

It’s almost like being in the company of a tiger.

I really regret how I didn’t drug him yesterday and then leave him alone to die hard.

When I got downstairs, Ben Richter chased me down and called out to me, “Sister-in-law, I heard that Walker was angry in the office just now, don’t be angry, Walker wasn’t angry at you, there was a problem with one of the projects in the south, so he was in a bad mood.”

Is Walker Richter someone who will be influenced by the program?

“Brother, you don’t have to speak for him, who in THE Richter family doesn’t know he doesn’t treat me well.”

Even Mr. Richter’s mother knows that Bella Hill sleeps in a separate room from Walker Richter, so I’m afraid the whole the Richter family knows.

What Bella Hill did to marry into THE Richter family and what she did to hold on to the title of Ms. Richter is not clear to outsiders, how is it not clear to THE Richter family people.

Ben Richter smiled warmly, “Walker is that nature, I can see that you really like Walker, it’s a blessing for him to have a wife like you, by the way, let’s go back to the old mansion for dinner in the evening, grandma called just now and said so herself.”

The real Bella Hill probably really likes Walker Richter, and as for me, Walker Richter is so grumpy, I just like any random guy on the street better than him.

Mr. Richter’s mother opened her mouth, so naturally she had to go back.

“Okay, I’ll be there in the evening.” I said, “Brother, I won’t bother you with your work, I’ll go back first.”

Ben Richter had been standing in front of the office watching me leave.

Fiona Croix messaged me and asked me out for dinner tonight, and after promising the old lady’s side, Fiona Croix’s side had to push it.

But if I had known that something was going to happen to Fiona Croix at night, I would have said nothing to put it off.

I went back to Pear orchard, but instead of going straight back to the cottage, I headed next door.

Perhaps Walker Richter doesn’t even know that the cottage is in the name of Bella Hill, who used it as a prison cage and kept me locked up for a whole year.

Bella Hill presses the door for facial recognition, I stand there and the door opens.

When I first knocked out Bella Hill and escaped, I never came in here, even when I was so close.

The blow I gave her wasn’t fatal, she would have woken up, but she suddenly disappeared, which allowed me to stay in the Richter family under the guise of “Bella Hill”.

I also wondered where the hell Bella Hill had gone and when she would be back.

I pushed open the door to the cellar, which still reeked of a foul odor, and the blood that had been spilled when I gave birth had long since dried up and turned black. Even the umbilical cord was still thrown on the floor, and there were chains hanging from the walls, the same ones Bella Hill had used to lock me up in the first place.

Back here, images of those days of captivity came to mind one by one, and hatred grew in his heart.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside, as if footsteps.

“Who?”

I was alert and immediately walked out, the empty villa was empty.

Did I just hear it wrong?

I didn’t think much of it; the furniture was dusty, no one had been here for a long time, and Bella Hill wasn’t here.

I left quickly and took SWEETHEART with me to the old mansion at night.

When I arrived Walker Richter was not yet back, Mr. Richter’s mother was teasing sweetheart with Fin Wilson, Nancy Richter was not at home either, I heard that she went to the branch office to study, this time when she came back from abroad, Charles Richter was interested in letting her start helping to manage the company.

It was not time for supper, so I went around the back garden of the old mansion, and also to avoid some questioning from Mr. Richter’s mother and exposing myself.

There was a pavilion in the garden, and I was about to go over and sit in it when I realized it was already occupied.

It’s Tina Deross.

I turned to walk the other way when Tina Deross called out to me, “Sibling.”

Tina Deross came over, “Sibling, why do you leave when you see me.”

I smiled, pretending to have just seen her person, and said in surprise, “Sister-in-law, so you’re here too.”

I don’t know what kind of relationship Tina Deross has with that man. If it’s that kind of relationship, and she’s cuckolding Ben Richter and I see her, will Tina Deross still be thinking about me?

I didn’t mean to get into such trouble.

Tina Deross frowned and explained, “Sibling, the man you saw at noon was an old schoolmate of mine, we’re not in the relationship you think we are, I was visiting him.”

Upon closer inspection, Tina Deross does smell faintly of medicine.

Tina Deross explained it to me and I was kinda surprised.

“Sister-in-law, you’re worrying too much, you’re in love with big brother, how could I think that.” I asked, “Sister-in-law, are you not feeling well? Do you want to go to a major hospital?”

“A minor ailment, no need to go to a major hospital, just take a few pills and you’ll be fine.” Tina Deross wanted to say something, “Sibling, what happened when you saw me at noon, can you not mention it in front of Grandma?”

That’s an odd thing to say, Tina Deross isn’t worried about me talking to Ben Richter, how come she’s worried about Mr. Richter’s mother knowing?

And for whatever reason Tina Deross, I nodded my head in agreement, “Don’t worry sister-in-law, I won’t talk nonsense.”

Tina Deross fell back on her heels when I agreed so readily.

I almost forgot about Bella Hill’s temperament. She’s not such a good talker.

I know Bella Hill, but I can’t manage to act like Bella Hill all the time.

I was about to say something when Tina Deross suddenly asked me, “Sis, why don’t you divorce your second brother, he doesn’t love you and I know you don’t really love him either, you’re just in it for the title of Ms. Richter, I saw you go into a hotel with a guy once.”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
