Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 1118

"Is that so?" Callen’s lips curled into a cold smirk. "You said forty-eight hours, right? If that man is still breathing after that window closes, then we can forget this plan. But if he drops dead, he can only blame his own poor luck. I can afford to wait. Actually, it is not forty-eight hours anymore. There are only thirty-five left."

"Even if something happens to Sebastian, the Whitmore family has other members," Richard said, his expression grim. "And then there is Lilian. She is the head of Skyreach Group and the granddaughter of the Philips family patriarch. She will never stand by and watch Empire Group collapse."

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Callen’s eyes. "A single woman has you this terrified? How am I supposed to trust you with the future of this family? If Skyreach Group has flourished, it is only because of her connection to that man. Once he falls, she loses her primary support. Her own company will be just as vulnerable. As for the rest of the Whitmores, they are not even worth mentioning."

Richard remained silent. In his mind, Lilian was far more dangerous than his grandfather realized. A girl with such terrifying medical skills who had built a massive corporate empire at her age did not do so through luck or mere connections. She had to have formidable strength of her own.

Callen noticed Richard's hesitation and looked displeased, but he dropped the subject. "What about Jane?"

Richard looked up, surprised by the sudden question. His grandfather had never shown the slightest interest in Jane. "She was hit with the neurotoxin Renee developed. I sent her to Dr. Kimura for treatment."

Callen paused, then let out a mocking snort. "I assumed you would leave her to rot in Dracovia. Why bother bringing back a bastard whose father is a mystery?"
