Falling 57

Sandria narrowed her eyes slightly, got out of the car, and stood with her arms crossed, looking at the weak woman on the ground. 

“Are you trying to scam me for compensation?” 

“Sandy, Mom just wants to admit her mistake to you. Please don’t be so heartless, okay?” 

Hearing this, Sandria laughed, her eyes sparkling as she squatted down. 

“So you admit your mistake, just so you can keep leeching off me? Fine, if you like lying there, just keep lying there. It’s okay, if a traffic accident kills you, I have car insurance. I can afford the payout.” 

With that, she turned and got back in the car. 

The sound of the engine starting up filled the air. 

Lola was startled, meeting Sandria’s wild, unhinged gaze head–on. 

In that instant, a chill ran through her entire body. 

She… she really did want to run her over. 

Her body reacted faster than her mind–Lola sprang to her feet with surprising agility. 

The car then roared past the very spot where she had just been lying. 

Lola’s face turned livid with rage. “Sandria! You ungrateful wretch, you’ll die a horrible death!” 

She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes full of venom.

Meanwhile, Courtney was sobbing uncontrollably, clutching Florentino’s arm. 

“Tino, let me explain!” 

Florentino suddenly shook off her hand, his gaze dark and menacing. 

Courtney was thrown off balance by his action, landing on the ground and gasping in pain. 

She had never seen Florentino like this before and was too frightened to make another sound. 

Florentino tugged irritably at his tie and turned to leave. 

When he got back to the office, he felt even more agitated and picked up the internal phone.

“Find out for me what’s really going on with the Schroeder family’s heiress!” 

An hour later, his assistant arrived with a sealed file folder. 

“Mr. Burnham, I’ve found out.” 

Florentino snatched the document and tore it open roughly. 

He skimmed through it at lightning speed, his face growing darker with every line he read. 

Everything was written clearly on the document.

Sandria, the biological granddaughter of Bryant, chairman of the Schroeder Group, was switched at birth eighteen years ago. Courtney, the daughter of a distant relative of the Mosley family, was adopted by the Mosleys after her parents died. The so–called Mosley family was a relative of the Schroeder family, but there were indeed some hidden truths, and perhaps the two families were not as close as they seemed. 

Florentino’s face twisted in rage as he clenched his fist. 

He had actually been deceived by an impostor for so long. 

He had given up Sandria, the golden phoenix, for the sake of an unremarkable adopted daughter. 

After a brief outburst of anger, he suddenly calmed down. 

So, Sandria had known about her true identity all along? She had deliberately kept silent, watching him make a fool 

of himself. 

This woman was truly scheming. 

All those years of obedient compliance in front of him had been nothing but an act. 

She was just sulking with him, using this method to get back at him, wanting him to regret it. 

Florentino gripped the document so tightly that his fingers turned white. 

Instead of feeling remorse, a strong desire to conquer surged within him. 

So what if she was the heiress of the Schroeder family? Hadn’t she loved him for all these years? 

If she was angry and had a temper, he could just coax her a little more, 

Thinking this, Florentino suddenly felt more delighted than anything else. 

Hadn’t she always wanted to be with him? 

Now that she had the identity of the Schroeder family’s heiress, he could openly bring her home. 

She should be very happy, right? 

With this thought, Florentino sent a message to Sandria.
