Left for Dead Came Back for Everything novel Chapter 106

"Otherwise, as of today, you are no longer a part of the Roth family. Your shares in the clinics, this estate—everything will be revoked."

"The choice is yours."

The living room was so silent you could hear a pin drop.

Zander sat frozen on the sofa, his posture completely defeated.

Just then—

Yvonne walked in wearing a pale pink lounge dress, carrying a delicate tray holding a freshly steeped pot of chamomile tea.

She smiled brightly as she approached Eleanor, handing her a cup, and then gracefully poured another for Harrison.

"Dad, Mom. Please, have some tea to soothe your throats."

"I brewed this fresh this morning with honey and lemon. Please try it."

She turned, dabbed delicately at the corner of her eye, and cast a weak, pitiful look at Zander.

"This is all my fault. I just loved Zander so much... I acted on impulse because I wanted to comfort him."

"If Zander really despises me, I'll pack my bags and leave tomorrow."

Eleanor instantly panicked.

"Oh, sweetheart, what are you saying? You aren't going anywhere!"

Eleanor grabbed Yvonne's wrist and pulled her down to sit affectionately beside her.

"Your only job right now is to rest, stay healthy, and spend time with Zander. You don't need to worry about a single other thing."

Eleanor reached out, her hand resting gently on Yvonne's still-flat stomach, her eyes brimming with maternal obsession.

"This is the first grandchild of the Roth family. Our golden child. They will carry on our legacy!"

Then, she opened a mahogany jewelry box on the side table and pulled out a stunning sapphire necklace and matching bracelet—clearly priceless family heirlooms.

"Here, these are for you. Consider it a gift for the baby."

Yvonne took them with both hands, her eyes turning perfectly red, her voice sweet and soft.

"Mom... you're too good to me. I don't even know what to say..."

"What's there to say? You're already half a daughter to me! And soon, you'll be my real daughter!"

Eleanor patted Yvonne's hand like she was a priceless treasure. Suddenly remembering something, a dark, vicious look crossed her face.

"By the way, about those two crazy bitches at the hospital yesterday—Eliza and her psycho mother. I'll make sure they pay for what they did to you. Don't you worry. If you need anything, just tell me."
