Chapter 213: Tina, Take the BlforLate at night, at Jade's Park.

After the news of the marriage alliance between the Farrell family and the Reed family broke out, Elizabeth called Amber Reed. Annabelle and others didn't like Amber Reed interacting with Elizabeth, so she sneaked out to Jade's Park to meet her.

Elizabeth stood by ssteps and saw Amber Reed approaching from a distance, wearing a baseball cap and mask. She began to sneer, "Amber, your status has changed now. Even Grandma finds it hard to see you!" Even this meeting took countless calls before Amber Reed agreed to cout. Elizabeth realized that Pinewood Reed and Talon Reed were right; Amber Reed was ungrateful. No matter how much she loved Amber Reed in the past, once she climbed up the social ladder, Amber Reed didn't care about her anymore.

"Grandma, what are you talking about?" Amber Reed forced a smile. "I've been busy preparing for exams lately." "Busy with exams or is it because in your heart only Annabelle deserves to be called Grandma!" Elizabeth snorted.

Initially, she wanted Amber Reed to enter the capital's Reed family so that Annabelle and Jasper Reed would help revive the Ensford Reed family. But unexpectedly, after taking Amber back, the capital's Reed family only gave sordinary monetary thanks, bought them an apartment, and said they would transfer the current Reed Residence to her once Amber got into a university in the capital.

Bah! Is that what she wanted? She wanted the Reed Group to rise again! "How could that be? Grandma, you think too much. You raised me; of course, I'm loyal to you," Amber Reed concealed her disgust but sneered inwardly.

Elizabeth's late husband was originally Muff Reed's half-brother from the capital and ranked fifth. Muff Reed's father favored his fifth son from his mistress and always wanted to pass the family head position to him. Unfortunately for him, Muff Reed had already taken control when he was young and seized the family head position.

Unwilling to accept this, Elizabeth incited her husband to cause trouble, which led Muff Reed to expel them from the capital's Reed family and relocate to Ensford. It was said that Elizabeth's methods were extremely vicious back then, almost causing Annabelle, who was pregnant with Esther, to lose her life.

Muff Reed nearly killed her if not for her husband's plea and vow never to return to the capital. So Annabelle had reasons for hating Elizabeth and forbidding Amber from contacting her.

"Now that you're a daughter of the Reed family and about to marry into the Farrell family, it's tto fulfill your promise," Elizabeth said impatiently. "I don't want much; just givetwo billion dollars as startup capital." "Two billion dollars!" Amber exclaimed. "Where can I find two billion dollars for you? Even after returning to the Reed family, my allowance is only a few million." Elizabeth really dared to ask.

"Aren't you marrying Nathaniel Farrell?" Elizabeth said coldly. "Jared Farrell casually gave Tina jewelry worth five billion dollars. Nathaniel Farrell is the eldest grandson of the Farrell family; can't he even cup with two billion dollars as a bride price?" "Tina's dowry was only eight hundred thousand; how could I possibly ask for two billion? What would the Farrell family think of me!" Amber nearly ground her teeth in anger. Besides, she had used other conditions to exchange for Nathaniel Farrell marrying her; he would never give her two billion dollars.

Nathaniel Farrell was already annoyed at being tricked into marrying her! "Tina's status can't compare with yours," Elizabeth snorted. "You're a daughter of the capital's Reed family; asking for a two-billion-dollar bride price isn't too much. The benefits the Reed family can bring him far exceed two billion dollars. Besides, aren't you carrying their 'great-grandson'?" Seeing Amber's gloomy face unwilling to agree, Elizabeth sneered again. "Amber, have you really started taking yourself seriously as a daughter of the Reed family?" "Grandma?" Amber trembled all over.

"Don't forget you're an imposter!" Elizabeth sneered. "Without my help, you wouldn't have beca daughter of the capital's Reed family! To help you deceive everyone back then, I sold Hugo's perfformula for a mere one hundred million! Do you know Annabelle and Jasper did two more paternity tests behind your back? If I hadn't kept an eye on them and helped from behind the scenes, your identity would've been exposed long ago! Now I want you to repaytwenty times over; it's not too much!" Amber was stunned; she didn't know about those additional paternity tests. She bit her lip and said, "How about this: I'll help you buy back that perfformula!" A couple of hundred million was something she could still manage by acting pitiful towards Annabelle and Jasper under the guise of repaying Elizabeth.

"Heh heh, that formula is already being produced by someone else," Elizabeth shook her head. "Getting it back is useless now. Besides, how could one formula be enough for the revival of the Reed Group? Two billion dollars-not a penny less!" "Grandma, you're pushinginto a corner!" Amber gritted her teeth.

"How am I pushing you?" Elizabeth smiled triumphantly. "I gave you a life of luxury and pushed you to this high position; you should repay me." She stepped closer and gently touched Amber's belly with malicious intent in her voice. "Besides, is that child really Nathaniel Farrell's? Or Sean's? Or someone from Southridge?" Her patience had run out; if not for Amber dragging her feet in helping her, she wouldn't have resorted to threats.

"Amber, be obedient; Grandma won't reveal this if you comply." "Shut up!" Amber screamed and violently pushed Elizabeth away.

Amber's forceful action caused Elizabeth-already unsteady on her feet at over sixty years old-to stumble backward down the steps in terror. Her hands flailed but couldn't grab anything before tumbling down and lying motionless. Amber stood there in panic as blood stained the steps leading down where Elizabeth lay twisted in an unnatural position with blood pooling beneath her.

"Grandma?" She shivered but called out tentatively.

Elizabeth lay there silently with no response.

Suppressing her fear, Amber cautiously walked down toward Elizabeth on the ground.

After hesitating briefly, she bent down and checked for breath-finding it faint but still alive.

Calming herself down slightly more now-she pulled out her phoneintending to call emergency services but paused at dialing-looking down coldly at unconscious Elizabeth below. If this old woman died now-she'd no longer face threats-and no one would know she wasn't Jasper's biological daughter anymore!

After all-Elizabeth always acted meticulously-never telling tellinganyone including Pinewood or Talon-who genuinely believed she belonged within their bloodline... As for further paternity tests-they'd already done three-and wouldn't do another...

Even if Jasper or Annabelle continued suspecting-they'd never uncover truth if careful enough...

With cold determination-she turned off phone screen-and suddenly thought maliciously while bending. over using bandkerchief covering fingers dipping into blood writing "Tina" nearby... Straightening up satisfied with result-a wicked smile spread across face... Tina-you'll bear guilt for killing Grandma instead of me!
