Anaya sneered and left that parting shot behind, then hung up.

She was calling obviously because she’d been flamed too much online, and the rich lady image she’d cultivated had crumbled utterly these past few days, so she was feeling pissed.

She didn’t much like Sierra, but she loathed Georgia.

Not that Georgia was her cousin’s wife in name and she was inheriting that huge inheritance, Anaya was, of course, feeling really hateful for it.

She didn’t want to believe it and had called to confirm the answer, which pissed her off even more.

Because of that call, Georgia recalled Aston.

Thinking about it, Anaya seemed to especially dislike her because she had a pretty intimate relationship with Emilia, and Anaya had done all sorts of malicious speculation.

If Anaya found out that she was actually cousins with Aston, that would be a show.

Georgia thought about it, and decided she was going to tell Anaya next time she saw her, then get a good look at her face.

But the moment she recalled Aston, Emilia made a video call.

Georgia took the call, and her mother’s face appeared.

“Georgia, how’s things inside the country? Is it dangerous for you?”

Georgia hurriedly comforted Casey.

“Everything’s fine on my end. I’ve taken care of Sierra. She’s failed now, and my side’s going to stop when the person behind her has been exposed. You don’t need to worry about me, Mom. I’ll resolve all this. Annie says she wants to see you. Now that your body’s fine and you’re free, I’ll take you to her.”
