The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 1082

Sheryl clenched her fists, the bitterness in her heart surging like a relentless river. She was almost certain now that it was Aurelia and Jelena who had conspired against her, setting her up for a fall.

What deceitful and shameless creatures!

But Sheryl was no pushover and she was determined to settle the score.

"I won't let those two bitches get away with this."

Lisbeth remained silent, sipping her cocktail before whispering, "Did you hear about Leopold's divorce from Aurelia and he remarried?"

"Yeah," Sheryl nodded. "Her name was Megan, an heiress from the Alcott Group, Leopold's ex. She was pretty formidable but still got outplayed by Aurelia and was sent packing."

Lisbeth stirred her drink, "How is she doing now? She must hate Aurelia, right?"

Sheryl replied, "She's gone mad and locked up in a psych ward by the Alcott family. Probably the Alcott family did it to avoid any backlash from the Stirling family out of sheer fear."

Lisbeth sighed, "Poor thing. If she were in her right mind, she could've been an ally for you."

That seemed to give Sheryl an idea. She couldn't take down Aurelia alone without getting her hands dirty. She needed someone who despised Aurelia even more.

"Lisbeth, you seem not to be a fan of Aurelia either."

Lisbeth shrank back, "I'm just... scared that one day I might accidentally cross her, and she'll turn on me. I'm a straight shooter and don't know how to sugarcoat things. If I step out of line, will she come after me?"

Sheryl snorted, "She might not show it, but she's keeping a tally. She'll wait until your guard is down and then strike, leaving you dazed and defenseless."

Lisbeth rubbed her arms with fear in her face, "Once her cousin marries Fredric and becomes a part of the Stirling family, Aurelia will be unstoppable."
