The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 800
The bodyguard took the golf club from Zach and set it aside. Madelyn put on her Bluetooth earpiece, and instantly, she heard Blake’s argumentative voice. ‘Wow, she’s really loud.’
“Do you have any shame? These gifts are obviously for my cousin, Mya. Trying to snag them before the wedding’s even a sure thing? Think you deserve them? You all act like ungrateful, shameless jerks. You’re just like bullies and thieves!”
One of the ladies defiantly pointed at Blake and snapped, “All these will be ours soon anyway; so why not take them now?”
“Fine! Take them if you dare!” Blake retorted. “But if you do, I’ll break your hands.”
Kevin gave Blake a thoughtful look, his eyes deep in thought. He admired her courage.
“Let’s take what belongs to us,” the lady challenged. An old lady gazed at the jewelry, thinking, “These are worth so much money… More than I could ever spend in a lifetime.’
“How long’s the sentence for robbery, Blake?” Kevin asked. Blake replied, “Between three and ten years.”
Kevin remarked, “Impressive! You’ve brushed up on your legal know-how. But remember, the items from Jardin Corporation are more than just valuable – they could get someone locked up for life. Always guard what’s yours, since not everyone has the privilege to handle such things.”
Mya shot a look at Luke. “I warned you she’d come. I want your family and friends out. I can’t face you right now.”
Another lady stood abruptly, her eyes wide with disbelief. “Why does she want us to leave, Luke? That’s a huge mansion. If not us, who’s supposed to live there?”
Luke’s face turned pale. He struggled to find the right words, his voice wavering. As he saw Mya turn away coldly, panic set in. “Mya, I realize I was wrong to pressure you into marriage, but did you have to humiliate me like that in public? I thought you cared about me? If you’re not ready for marriage, I’ll wait.”
With newfound courage, Mya looked him in the eye. “Let me be clear – I’ll never forgive what you did to me. I’m calling the cops to kick all of you out of my house.”
“You think you’re so clever, brat? To be a Graham, you must follow our rules and recognize that these belongings should be ours. If not, you’re not one of us. Blake rolled her eyes on Mya’s behalf. ” Like she cares!”
Kevin met Mya’s gaze, maintaining a calm demeanor. “You have nothing to worry about, Mya. Your father is safe and back home with the Harper family.”
Mya blinked, processing the information. “Is my father truly back?”
With a nod, Kevin replied, “Yes.”
Gratitude shone in Mya’s eyes. ” Madelyn promised she’d help, and she did. As for you, Luke,” her voice took on a sharp edge, “you’ve made a huge mistake.” Without warning, she swung her fist, hitting Luke’s nose.
