Reborn From Ashes novel Chapter 104

"If there's someone you want to invite, just do it. Why would Mom and Dad disagree? Don't tell me—it's someone you admire at school?

"Morgan, you're quite popular. Are you already in a relationship?" Lily teased, pulling Morgan into a hug and playfully pinching his nose.

Morgan pretended to wince but secretly enjoyed being embraced by her soft, comforting figure.

Lily, who adored him the most, was more elegant in appearance and more captivating than his other two sisters. She had a charm he hadn't seen in any other woman.

No wonder she was a popular live streamer. She was extraordinary!

"Lily, stop teasing me! I'm not dating anyone!" Morgan protested, pretending to struggle while his hands moving mischievously. Several times, he "accidentally" touched her sensitive areas.

This startled her, triggering an instinctive sense of unease. She quickly released him.

Though he had grown strong enough to escape her embrace easily, he deliberately struggled just to savor the moment.

Lily didn't suspect anything, brushing off the touches as accidental. She forced a slightly awkward smile, pretending nothing had happened. "So, who is it that you want to invite?"

At that moment, Morgan clasped his hands behind his back, recalling the sensation from earlier with growing excitement.

His gaze turned fiery as he stared at her, silently vowing that he would completely dominate her one day. He fantasized about locking her away, making her his plaything for life.

"Lily, if I tell you who it is, you have to promise not to get upset!" Morgan said with an air of seriousness.

Hayden was the bane of the Sterling family's existence. How could they invite him?

"Morgan, are you out of your mind? He'll ruin the party if we invite him, and he'll embarrass himself in the process! What good is he, anyway? What does he have that makes him think he can attend such an important event?

"Forget it. Someone like him doesn't deserve to come!" Lily decisively rejected the idea, her disgust for Hayden evident and unwavering.

"But Hayden is still part of our family. He can't be left out!" Morgan said in a gentle tone, pretending to care. "Because of him, I got the chance to attend Brighton University. He gave up his spot for me! Let's ask Mom and Dad and see what they think."

Inwardly, he was eagerly anticipating Hayden's presence. If Hayden came, he would ensure Hayden was utterly humiliated or disappeared in front of everyone for good.

Then, there would be no one left standing in the way of Morgan's claim to everything.
