She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50: Unexpected Guest

No one expected that Cheyenne, a woman who seemed to have no power or influence could convince Iker to treat his leg.

In the past three years, Kai had found countless doctors for Iker's illness.

But all were driven out of the villa by him without exception.

Only Miss Lawrence succeeded, which made everyone look at her with new eyes.

Thalia exchanged a glance with her son and there was a hint of killing intent in her beautiful eyes that disappeared in an instant.

It was already after eight o'clock in the evening when Cheyenne and Layne finished dinner. During this time, Layne would stay at Lawrence Villa temporarily.

Nora felt disgusted when she found out. She didn't like living with this old man. But Cheyenne was the villa's owner, so technically, Nora didn't have the right to live here instead.

On Layne's first day living here, George respectfully called Layne and chatted with him. However, the next day, he used work as an excuse to leave early and come home late. Malaya didn't notice anything unusual about her husband and continued with her plans.

The following day, unexpected guests arrived at the villa! Nora was wearing a school uniform and sitting next to an old man with a proud smile on her face. The old man looked slightly older than Cheyenne's grandfather with gray hair, dressed in an expensive brown-black suit, and had narrow eyes that resembled those of a sly fox when he smiled.

This was Nora's grandfather, Zack Mitchell, who would soon be celebrating his 70th birthday.

The Mitchell family used to be just an ordinary working-class family in Akloit. Zack worked as an accountant in a factory while his wife was a nurse. They had one son and one daughter together.

Their son, Xander Mitchell, dropped out of middle school and became known as a troublemaker in the community who spent his days idling around instead of working hard like everyone else.

Malaya, on the other hand, was a determined young woman who successfully gained admission to college. She studied textile engineering and after graduation, she landed a job as a technician at the Edwards family factory.

As fate would have it, Malaya met Selah and became friends with her. The factory's leader promoted Malaya to be a manager given that Malaya's education background and friendship with Selah.

At that time, George had become engaged to Selah.

Malaya earned enough money in the city to bring her entire family from their rural home in Akloit to live with her. Knowing that the Edwards family had money, she stole some things from Selah to help support her own family.

Soon enough, Xander, Malaya's older brother, transformed into a wealthy man whom everyone wanted as their son-in-law.

With Malaya's introduction and recommendation, Xander married Daisy Riley, the lady of the Riley family.

The Riley family agreed to marry off their daughter because they saw how well connected Malaya was within the Edwards family circles.

After the Edwards family went bankrupt, George took over its factories.

Tensions between him and Selah grew because Malaya kept sowing discords.

Furthermore, he spent most of his days at work.

With the convenience of their work, Malaya was promoted from workshop manager to George's secretary. They ended up together and she became pregnant without his baby. When George found out about the pregnancy, he became even more determined to have a son.

Selah was beautiful but unfortunately a retard. She also refused to let George touch her at night and would cry and kick him out of the room. Despite being married for years, George only had memories of their wedding night when they slept in the same room but not the same bed.

It wasn't until Selah became pregnant that George realized why the Edwards family had arranged for them to marry. However, Selah's health was poor and toxins from her body could potentially be passed down to her child.
