NovelEnglishChapter 463 Emma cast a sneer at Susan and said, “The fortunes of the Hawthorne family are all due to my cousin and her brother, nothing to do with Ritchie. Even if you worm your way into this family, you won't see a dime. You're just a plaything to him. You'd better think twice.” Susan was stunned. Wasn't she suffering a double loss? “Ritchie, you absolute bastard!” Enraged, she lunged at Ritchie, punching and kicking him. She didn’t care about being the mistress. Love was nonsense, morality even more so. Money was the true ruler.
Who would play the role of a mistress for love? Wasn't it always for money? If there was no money in it, it would be a bolt from the blue.
Ritchie, annoyed by her assault, mustered his strength and pushed her to the ground.
“My stomach! It hurts!” Susan cried out in pain, clutching her belly. A pool of blood began to seep from between her legs.

When Ritchie was heading to work in the office building, a woman with flame-red hair stopped him, “You're Aurelia’s cousin, right? She’s sitting on a mountain of money and you're stuck here working as a security guard. That's just not fair.” The woman's words resonated with Ritchie. Aurelia was always an ungrateful girl in his mind.
“Lady, are you Aurelia’s enemy?” The woman whispered, “If you're willing to help me, | can introduce you to high society and ensure your financial freedom.” Ritchie scratched his head and said, “I'm not about to do anything illegal.” He'd been in prison once before. It was such a terrible place for a criminal. He didn’t want to go back.
The woman patted his shoulder, comforting, “Don’t worry. It's all minor stuff.” Ritchie gave a mischievous smile, “Well, it all depends on whether your offer is enticing enough.” 12 11-23 Chapter 463 The woman pulled a stuffed envelope from her bag, “Our boss is very generous. This is just pocket change. If you agree to help, you'll be rewarded in the future.” Ritchie eyed the envelope and his eyes lit up.

“Tonight, you're the belle of the ball.” She gave a wry smile, “Unfortunately, Mr. Leopold, you're no longer my leading man.” He frowned slightly, “My place is irreplaceable.” She gave a dismissive laugh, “You seem overly confident, Mr. Leopold. I've proven that | can live perfectly well without you. Your role is quite redundant.” Her words stung Leopold. His heart ached slightly. If it hadn’t been for that damned Megan, Aurelia wouldn't be so aloof.
Just as he was brooding, the source of his annoyance made her appearance.
Megan approached them, her eyes filled with malice. She wished nothing more than to see Aurelia reduced to ashes, to vanish from Leopold's life forever.
As soon as she reached Leopold, she attempted to link her arm with his, only to be shrugged off in disgust.
“What are you doing here? This is a corporate celebration,” he snapped.
