Thorns Grow After Betrayal (Celeste and Chester) novel Chapter 299

Luther was absolutely livid.

He nearly landed himself in the hospital from the rage.

In the end, that family heirloom—the jade pendant—was swept under the rug.

Who could’ve guessed that now, one piece of it had ended up in Dahlia’s hands?

He didn’t need to ask to know exactly which worthless son was behind this mess.

“Well, well, looks like this belongs to your precious Selwyn family now, doesn’t it?” Dahlia gloated as she pocketed the pendant. “Let me give you a warning: don’t get too cocky! Every little favor you’ve wrung out of us all these years—we’ve kept record of every single one. And don’t think that just because you and Chester are getting divorced, we’ll just let you off easy. Even if you do split, the Fordham family isn’t about to let you walk away without consequences!”

Dahlia’s tone was sharp, her hostility aimed squarely at Celestine.

Luther’s voice shook with fury. “I’ll tell you this—I may be old, but I’d rather pour my last strength into painting a few more canvases than live under the Fordham family’s thumb for the rest of my life!”

Dahlia put her hands on her hips and snapped, “Oh, you think I won’t call the cops and have this whole clan of leeches locked up? You’ve been bleeding us dry for years, and now you dare act self-righteous!”

Luther had always lived with dignity.

He’d never been humiliated like this in his entire life.

“Unbelievable! Just outrageous!”

Celestine rushed to steady her grandfather, guiding him to sit by the bed and pressing the call button for the doctor.

Dahlia jumped back in alarm.

Judging by the old man’s appearance, was he about to keel over right here and pin his death on her?

Celestine glanced back, her eyes glinting coldly enough to send a shiver down Dahlia’s spine.
