Chapter 296
Her gaze was icy, her voice dripping with sarcasm. Dorian felt his face grow even paler, more ghastly. Even though they expected this outcome, hearing Miranda say those words still stung.
Miranda wasn’t speaking for herself, but rather on behalf of the original Miranda. In her final moments, all that flashed through her mind were the humiliations and bullying she suffered at the hands of the Hawke family.
People typically recalled their happiest memories before they died. But for that Miranda, there were no happy memories to be found in her past.
She had never known happiness, so she couldn’t even imagine what it felt like. Her death was steeped in bitterness. She hated the Zade family, she hated everyone from the Hawke family.
Before she went to prison, despite all she endured, there was still warmth and life within her heart. But once she was behind bars, her spirit truly died. Coldly, she plunged into her own personal hell.
The online comments weren’t wrong. Miranda, indeed, was pure–no matter what she suffered from both families, she never harmed anyone. She simply curled up, living humbly..
Yet in the end, they still didn’t spare her. In prison, she bore suffering and humiliation she didn’t deserve. In the end, she succumbed to despair and passed away.
After she came back, the first thing she did was confront everyone in the prison who had insulted her.
“I’m here just to watch you all fall apart. Oh, and to let you know, I’ll be taking good care of NeuraCore,” Miranda said, her smile not reaching her eyes, sending chills down the spines of everyone in the Hawke family.
“What did you say?” Alden reacted immediately, “You’re the one who bankrupted us!!?”
He rushed forward, pounding heavily on the glass. But the glass was sturdy, not budging under his furious
blows.
Everyone else in the Hawke family stared at Miranda in shock. From the moment NeuraCore started having problems to when they sold it, only a few months had passed! They had never considered that all of this could have been orchestrated by Miranda!
Miranda spoke with a lazy drawl, “If I hadn’t waited for you to sell Neura Core, you wouldn’t be here now. After all, once you were arrested, your assets would have been seized. I had to force you to sell NeuraCore before your downfall. As for the money you got from selling Neura Core, consider it a contribution to the country.”
She had promised to reclaim everything that belonged to Miranda. The Hawke family’s assets included a portion that rightfully belonged to Miranda.
Everything that should have been hers had been enjoyed by Arabella, the imposter, for twenty years. Of course, she had to transfer the Hawke family’s assets.
So she waited for NeuraCore to be sold before exposing the Hawke family’s fabricated evidence and various illegal activities.
This allowed Sunny and Cathy to step in at the right moment, ensuring they had no chance of recovery, delivering the final blow.
And all of this had been meticulously planned with Marion. They specifically chose a company with red flags, luring the Hawke family into a partnership, leading to the entrapment of tens of millions in assets.
