The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1648

Kelly used to be head over heels for her sister Erica.

Her two bros, Tomas and Jack, were a real pain in the butt.

In their house, boys were the apple of their parents' eyes, and girls were just second fiddle. With Erica around, Kelly felt she had a sidekick.

But Erica started to change.

She was getting prettier and smarter by the day, and she was good at everything she did.

And all those rich boys, they only had eyes for Erica. Even Calvert couldn't take his eyes off of her. The best marriage proposals were only for Erica, not Kelly.

Kelly's jealousy started to bubble over. She began to think about Erica's mom and her background.

The hatred was like a tsunami, out of nowhere.

Kelly didn't love Erica anymore, all she wanted was to ruin her, to make everyone hate her!

Erica was a love child, born out of wedlock. She deserved this!

Things didn't exactly go according to plan though.

That fat, bald tycoon didn't get what he wanted in the end.

Erica and Kelly had a fallout, big time.

But Erica, the dumb girl, still followed the path Kelly set for her.

Erica dropped out of school, tarnished her reputation with rumors, and didn't even defend herself. Gradually, she was ditched by Calvert, despised by the rich boys, and became the laughing stock.

As for Kelly, with Erica out of the way, things were smooth sailing.

Kelly married a man from a very good background and even gained Calvert' trust in the company.

But, the economy took a nosedive in recent years. Kelly's husband's family business was on the brink of collapse, and the Shields family's jewelry business was slowly shutting down worldwide.

Just then, news of Erica's wedding was announced.

Erica was marrying Larkin, not Orval, the guy from back in the day.
