Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 849

Leaves rustled; the air shifted, and two figures emerged from the shadows as we reached the forest grounds.

I knew right away that it was Daisy Baldwin; her eyes were wide as she stepped forward, and then I saw Lila standing beside her. Something started to glow in the cloth she was holding.

Daisy’s eyes widened even more when she saw it glowing.

“So… it’s true then,” she whispered.

Lila shook her head, tears filling her eyes.

“No… it can’t be… I’m the heiress. I’m the one the gem belongs to,” Lila tried to argue, but Daisy curled her lip.

“Clearly not,” Daisy practically hissed. “I told you something wasn’t right, Lila. I told you that the gem doesn’t respond to you in the way that it should. It burns you for crying out loud. It isn’t normal… It’s not your blood that it wants; it’s hers. It glowed more than it ever glowed when she was at the manor; you saw it just as you see it now. it wants her… It’s her. She’s the heiress.”

“How is that possible…?” Lila asked, continuing to shake her head. “It shouldn’t be possible.”

“But it is,” Daisy said, folding her arms across her chest. “Levi Churchill had told me once that things aren’t as they seem. I didn’t know what he meant at the time, but now I do.”

“Enough of this,” Gavin said, stepping closer to me, his protection wrapping around me like a cozy blanket. “You wanted to speak with her, and now she’s here. Say what you must, and then we will be on our way.”

Daisy narrowed her eyes at us, and then her eyes found mine.

“Your blood will activate this gem… and then we will all get what we want,” she said, her eyes pouring into mine. “Please… you have to help me.”

“Help you?” I asked, finally finding my voice. “Help you with what?”
