The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 899

Chapter 899 

“Whatever it takes, don’t let her return to the Lynettes.” 

Leila had never in her wildest dreams imagined that the woman from years ago would bear a daughter, let alone that the news would reach Craneville! 

Given Yuri’s affection for her, if that little brat came back, the whole Lynette family would 

be thrown into chaos. 

And what would her thirty years of patient scheming amount to then? 

Meanwhile, Knox turned to Yuri. “If that child is found, you mustn’t play favorites.” 

His son’s marriage was a shambles, something beyond his influence. But having raised the twins as his own grandchildren for so many years, he worried that Yuri would show favoritism once the girl returned. 

“Dad,” Yuri, usually so composed, betrayed a hint of impatience. “You forced me into a marriage, and I met your expectations. Are you now going to meddle in my personal affairs?” 

Knox choked up. After a long pause, he spoke softly, “You still blame me.” 

Blame him for separating him and that woman! 

Yuri looked down. “I wouldn’t dare.” 

Knowing what was in his son’s heart, Knox gestured. “You should go.” 

Yuri left the study, finding his confidant waiting outside. 

“Mr. Lynette.” 

“Avoid the Lynettes and continue the search.” 

Yuri didn’t trust the Lynettes to find his daughter; it was a task he intended to undertake 

himself. 

“Yes, sir.” 

The thought of having a daughter filled Yuri with a mixture of anticipation and melancholy, laced with regret. 

“Also, regarding the jewelry studio you wanted to acquire, one of the founders has left,” the confidant added. 

“Bri-jeweled Studio?” 

“Yes.”

“Let’s arrange a meeting then.” 

“Understood.” 

Back in his room, Yuri found Leila waiting, draped in a seductive silk nightgown. 

“What are you doing here?” Yuri frowned in disgust. 

They had agreed that beyond the title of husband and wife, there would be nothing more. 

Leila, aware of his thoughts, forced a smile. “Yuri, I am your wife, I just want to spend more time with you.” 

“There’s no need.” Yuri saw through her, denying her. “I know what you want. Holden and Saskia were raised as Lynettes, and I won’t shortchange them. They’ll get what’s due.” 

Beyond that, they could expect nothing more. 

Leila bit her lip, a hint of aggrievement in her pose. “Yuri, you know, all these years I’ve always…” 

“It’s late. Go back to your room.” Yuri’s refusal to engage was clear. 

Prideful Leila could not stand being snubbed and stormed out. 

Yuri had the servants clean the room top to bottom, disgusted by her presence.
