Chapter 546

He scrapped against the leather with restless irritation

Damn it, Jeffrey why the hell would you go after her? A heartless woman he cursed himself

But the thought of hitting another bar or club didn’t appeal to him anymore so he just drove back to his

apartment.

Elysian Country, the Lopez Estate

Heather’s mother had to seek Amanda’s help because Heather was nowhere to be found

Amanda answered the phone with ease, 1 have no idea where that girl has run off for It’s been ages

since we’ve spoken”

“I’m afraid something’s happened to herr

“It shouldn’t be. Maybe she just needed to clear her head so she took a little trip to unwind. Don’t worry

about it

After offering a few comforting words, Amanda hung up the phone.

She called over the butler with a fick of her wrist, “Where did the master go?

“He’s out said something about hitting the golf course

Amanda raised an eyebrow. “So he won’t be back for hile?”

“Seems likely” The butler nodded. Shall I call him for you, ma’am?

“No need. If he gets back before I do, just tell him I went shopping and give me a ring. Don’t let on”

The butler didn’t dare to press for more He responded and promptly arranged for the chauffeur to take

Amanda away

Amanda dressed down in casual wear. She donned a hat and a mask to cover her face, and also

instructed the driver to take a few extra turns around downtown before heading to the final destination

It was a secluded house in the suburbs, guarded and with windows nailed shut so tight not even a fly

could escape

Upon seeing the car arrive, the guard on duty bowed respectfully

“Mrs. Lopez”

“How is she?” Amanda stepped out of the car and scanned the interior

“Same as always, ranting and raving. She’s been eating well, though. We’ve followed your orders and

kept her indoors.”

Amanda waved them aside to stand clear

That’s right, the one confined inside was Heather

When they had sent Everett off to Swevia Country they had Heather detained and placed under house

arrest right here

Because Jonathan had forbidden his wife to visit, Amanda had to sneak in to see her

Amanda entered alone. She didn’t worry about Heather causing any harm, there was another layer of

iron bars keeping her securely locked away

Heather stirred at the sound of someone entering Upon seeing Amanda, she immediately stood up.

Her eyes lit up as if she saw the Silverline, “Amanda, you finally came! Please, let me out?

Amanda frowned at Heather. Her tone was laced with disapproval and irritation.

“How can I let you out? You’ve hurt my son!”

“Amanda. I was in total despair I loved him so much that I wanted to kill him and then die with him!”

Heather’s hands clutched the bars. Her appearance was haggard and disheveled from the lack of

sunlight.

“Haven’t I always told you to keep your cool? Why don’t you ever listen? Now look what’s happened. I

can’t help you anymore. The fact that you’re still alive is the last favor I can do for you” Amanda said

firmly “You saved my life once, and I’ve repaid you many times over We’re even. But the moment you

laid hands on Everett, I can’t help you anymore”

“What are you saying?

“Give up on the idea of being a Lopez by marriage. Everett’s father is already looking for a new suitor
