Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 44 The Fate of the Younger Sister-in-law

"Now you're scared? What were you doing earlier?" The old lady scolded furiously, her disappointment evident.

"Grandma, please save me... I was wrong, okay? I promise I won't mess with her anymore!" Huo Anya burst into tears right away.

Although the old lady felt Huo Anya was infuriating, she was still her granddaughter. How could she refuse to help?

"Alright, let me see how to resolve this." The old lady sighed in exasperation.

After being reprimanded, Huo Anya slunk out of the old mansion miserably.

From a distance, she saw Lin Banxia leaning against a tree trunk, seemingly waiting for her intentionally.

Huo Anya stormed over, fuming, and gritted her teeth. "Lin Banxia, you've got some nerve!" frёewebηovel.cѳm

Lin Banxia noticed the tear marks on Huo Anya's face and her look of anger and dissatisfaction. One glance, and she could tell the old lady must have scolded her.

"Anya, what did I ever do to offend you? Why are you trying to harm me like this? I'm your brother's girlfriend!" Lin Banxia immediately put on a pitiful and aggrieved expression as she questioned her.

"Lin Banxia, do you know what makes me sick about you? It's that pathetic, pitiful face of yours. What gives you the right to enter the Huo Family anyway? If my brother weren't—"

"Weren't what?" Lin Banxia interrupted expectantly, hoping she'd spill the truth. That way, she could confront Huo Qinglin confidently.

Huo Anya wasn't completely brainless. She immediately cut off her sentence and changed her words. "If my brother didn't just happen to like dumb, sweet women like you, I'd never welcome you into our home!"

"So, you drugged me then?"

Huo Anya's face turned a deep shade of blue as anger surged within her. "Who said I drugged you? Which eye of yours saw it happen?"

"I'm just guessing. Good thing if it wasn't you. I'll have the police investigate and find the real culprit. When I do, I'll make sure she's imprisoned and compensates me for my emotional distress." Lin Banxia rarely showed such fierceness, but her resolve was unwavering as she spoke.

Huo Anya's face turned even darker. After a pause, she relaxed her tone and said, "Lin Banxia, isn't all this just about money? Fine, I admit I drugged you, but aren't you perfectly fine now? Just tell me how much you want. The Huo Family has plenty of money."

"Huo Anya, why would you stoop to such lengths to harm me? Your cruelty is truly terrifying," Lin Banxia erupted in rage.

Huo Anya hadn't expected Lin Banxia to have such a temper. At this moment, Lin Banxia's gaze was like two sharp knives cutting into her heart, leaving her panicked.

"I... I just wanted to get back at you for embarrassing me that day!" Huo Anya deliberately sounded self-righteous.

Lin Banxia's eyes narrowed sharply as she said, "If you can't tolerate me that much, fine—I'll break up with your brother right now."

"Hey, Lin Banxia, come back! This has nothing to do with my brother. It's me who hates you, not him. He likes you, alright? Please don't mention breaking up. Just name your price—I'll pay you anything. Ask me to do whatever you want—I'll agree! But just don't bring up breaking up with my brother, okay?" Huo Anya had been terrified by her brother's furious outburst yesterday. If Lin Banxia really broke up with him because of her, the land deed matter would be ruined, and her brother might just kill her.

Seeing the sly smile tugging at Lin Banxia's lips, Huo Anya realized her manipulation was working.

"Lin Banxia, I'll take responsibility for my actions. Whatever kind of apology you want, I'll do it. But please don't mention breaking up with my brother, alright? He truly loves you." Huo Anya shamelessly pleaded.

Lin Banxia turned her head to look at her. "You're serious? You're sincerely repentant?"

"I absolutely am!" At this moment, Huo Anya felt completely cornered by Lin Banxia, drained of any will to resist.

"Alright, then record your confession into my phone. Admit all your wrongdoings, apologize, and swear that you'll never try to harm me again. Otherwise—may heaven strike you down, you'll die a terrible death." Lin Banxia pulled out her phone, handed it to her, and demanded she record this on the spot.
