Reborn In Flames: The Heiress' Revenge Novel by Amos House

Chapter 47



Julia was bombarded with questions from Cassie, and her mind suddenly went blank.

Last night, when she received the photo, she thought that Cassie probably didn’t have any evidence to incriminate her; otherwise, Cassie wouldn’t have let her alone for so many days.

But she never imagined that Cassie had so much damming evidence against her!

“As for you saying I’m using you to clean up my name, Cassie looked down and said with a smile, “aren’t all those so-called scandals about me caused by you? Isn’t it only right to use you to clear them up?”

Julia glared at Cassie and said, “So you know everything now?”

“More than you can imagine,” Cassie said, word by word.

“Cassie, you’re such a good actress. It’s a pity you’re not in the acting business!” Julia said through gritted teeth.

Julia, you tried to harm my granddaughter, and now you blame her? Heston was furious. “You’re just like your scoundrel

father!”

These were the words Julia least wanted to hear.

She looked at Heston with resentment

If she had known that Cassie would find out so soon, she would have poisoned this whole family earlier!

It would have been better than letting them degrade and judge her now!

“Yes! I am like this. What can you do about it?” Julia said arrogantly, looking at Heston with contempt. “Send me to jail Or kill me?”

“You think I wouldn’t dare?” Heston, never having been so provoked, was instantly furious.

“Sure! Go ahead! I’m telling you, if I leave here with even a single hair missing today, the whole world will know that your granddaughter, out of jealousy, arranged for people to gang-rape an orphan you took in to show off your charity Julia said viciously. “Grandpa, it’s not like in your day anymore. With the internet, no matter how powerful you are, there are places where you can’t block the news! Whether you care about ruining Cassie’s reputation is up to you.”

“Julia Cortez shouted Lucas.

“Do you really think that with Murphy Group, you can control everything? Don’t forget, in the world of wealthy families. you’re not at the top of the pyramid. Many opponents are watching you. As long as they have something on you, do you think they won’t try to destroy you?” Julia then turned to Cassie and said, “If you’re going to harm someone, at least do it properly. Why leave evidence for me to use against Grandpa

Cassie didn’t respond.

She looked at Julia coldly.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

She looked at Julia coldly, thinking, ‘It seems that Julia has something that can prove my involvement in the gang-rape.

This was beyond Gassie’s plan, but she thought it was no big deal These trivial pieces of evidence only show that Julia had malicious intent but failed to execute her plans.

Julia still had a month before she turned eighteen. Even if Cassie reported it to the police, they’d at most give Julia a warning and maybe hold her in detention for a few days. That wasn’t what Cassie wanted.

Seeing the murderous intent in Cassie’s eyes, Julia felt an unprecedented fear.

She couldn’t understand how Cassie had become like this!

“Threatening me?” Heston was even more furious. “Alright, let’s see what amazing tricks you have.”

“Grandpa.” Cassie gently patted Heston’s hand in a comforting manner. “It’s not worth getting so angry over her. She’s been harboring evil intentions for so long, but all she’s done is ruin herself, losing both money and reputation.”

These comforting words pierced Julia’s heart like a sharp sword

“I’ve torn off your mask. There’s nothing more to say. You can leave now,” Cassie said coldly. “From now on, you have nothing to do with the Murphy family.”

Trying to just kick me out?” Seeing that Cassie was genuinely intimidated by her threat, Julia became incredibly arrogant “Your words just reminded me-I’ve lost my money and been raped because of you. You owe me compensation!”

“Why are you so shameless?” Lucas asked in disbelief.

Not holding her accountable was already merciful, and now she shamelessly wanted compensation!

“Say what you will, but all I’m asking for isn’t much: a detached villa and 10 million dollars in cash!” Julia sneered. “I need a place to live and food to eat after you drive me away. This is nothing for you and isn’t too much to ask.”

Cassie smiled. Looking at her warily, Julia asked, “Why are you smiling?”

That’s indeed not too much to ask,” Cassie replied. “The jewelry in my wardrobe is worth more than that, but… you’re not

worth it.

Julia’s expression froze.

“For the sake of your mother being a good friend of mine, I wasn’t planning to hold you accountable. Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Cassie stepped closer to Julia, suddenly grabbing her collar and dragging her forward. “I don’t know how much trouble you can stir up about you being raped, but no matter how big it gets, the worst that could happen is the Murphy Group being criticized and me being gossiped about and cursed… Well, that doesn’t seem to matter. After all these years of your scheming, I’ve had my fair share of criticism too.

“In the end, even a fallen giant is still a giant. Do you think it will be you or me who ends up worse off?”

Julia had never seen such a terrifying Cassie. It was as if… as if she were a demon wearing human skin. Julia was dumbfounded and horrified.

At this moment, Julia, who had just started to act malevolently, had neither the psychological strength nor the means she would have in her previous life when she burned Cassie and Heston to death.

“Not even 10 dollars, let alone 10 million dollars, will you get from me, Cassie said, releasing her grip on Julia’s collar

Julia fell to the ground.

She asked, “Cassie, do you really think I won’t go down with your

Cassie sneered, “Try it?”

“You Julia was shaking all over.

Based on her past knowledge of the Murphy family and Cassie, she knew that when it came to Cassie’s reputation and the family’s honor, they were always very cautious.

“Larry, throw her out! Cassie ordered mercilessly. “And issue a statement and announcement, informing the public that the Murphy family has terminated its adoption arrangement with Julia. Whatever she does in the future has nothing to do with the Murphy family!”

Julia didn’t expect that Cassie would actually publicly expel her from the family. After all, with her currently in the spotlight, driving her out would be detrimental to the Murphy family.

She asked, “Cassie, are you crazy? Don’t you care about the Murphy family’s reputation?

“Isn’t this exactly what you wanted?” Cassie looked at Julia, asking seriously, “Didn’t you say our family used you, a poor orphan, to build a charitable image? Now, Il personally help you smash this image!”

Severing ties with Julia wouldn’t really be negative for the Murphy family. Earlier, Cassie had confronted the media for Julia, clearly demonstrating the Murphy family’s protective stance toward her.

Why did they sever ties now?

This topic itself would be widely discussed.

However, no matter how it spread, it wouldn’t have any effect on the Murphy family.

However, for Julia, who had been acting like a young lady of the Murphy family, losing their protection meant she would face endless hardships.

“Are you all just going to let her do this to

me?” Julia, realizing the huge impact of severing ties, was on the verge of madness.

“Cassie is right,” said Heston, looking at Julia with disgust. “Since you think our kindness and care were just a show for others, then let’s completely sever this relationship. Murphy Group won’t take advantage of you.”

“Crazy! You are all crazy!” Julia shook her head repeatedly.

“Are you afraid?” Cassie shook her head with pity.

Julia clenched her fists, trembling uncontrollably with immense anger and panic.

She said through gritted teeth, “Cassie, you’re so cruel. You’ll get your retribution!”

“Well see if I get retribution later. For now, it’s you facing your consequences.” Cassie paused and then continued, “Til have Dad set up a department to handle public opinion right away. From now on, if anything unfavorable about Murphy Group life will be a hundred times worse than now!” comes from you…. I guarantee your Julia gritted her teeth.

Her eyes were bloodshot with rage.

“Larry, please throw her out,” said Cassie.

Larry had long wanted to throw Julia out.

He grabbed Julia by the back of her collar and dragged her out.

“Cassie Murphy, I won’t let you off! Julia struggled and screamed

Cassie didn’t spare her a single glance.

After all the irrelevant people left, only the four members of the Murphy family remained in the living room. The adults were all particularly silent.

“When did you notice?” Heston was the first to speak.

“Before my birthday, Cassie replied.

“Why didn’t you tell us? How could you do such a dangerous thing alone? What if you fail? What if you didn’t night?” Heston was furious.

“Grandpa, those didn’t happen.” Cassie’s gaze was firm.

didn’t escape that

“Cassie, that was too dangerous!” Lucas said, feeling frightened in hindsight. “And… how could you use such an underhanded method…”

“Cassie did the right thing.” Before Lucas could finish speaking, Anne cut him off,

Cassie was taken aback. She had previously wondered how her family would react once the truth was revealed.

She had anticipated the reactions of Heon and Lucas, but she hadn’t expected Anne to say such things. She had thought Anne would blame her for ruining Julia, given that Julia was someone Anne had genuinely cared for and raised.

“Even if she had told us at that time, would we have believed her? Anne said with red eyes, lowering her head and speaking in a subdued tone. “It’s our fault for trusting Julia so much that it drove Cassie to go to dangerous lengths to save herself and us!”

The two men’s faces darkened.

“Mom… I thought you…” Cassie felt a whirlwind of emotions as she heard Anne’s words.
