Taking Back What My Sister Stole novel Chapter 250

chapter250

The words on his lips went unspoken.

“Three days.”

Cecilia bargained over the time.

Wesley laughed bitterly, “In your mind, am I such a monster I’d hurt a pregnant woman?”

Cecilia pressed her lips. What else?

He couldn’t possibly want her forever.

Wesley stepped before her, tenderness filling his gaze.

“Let’s remarry.”

Remarry?

Every fiber of Cecilia resisted those words.

Her smile faded slowly as she stared quietly at Wesley.

Utterly ironic.

“If I recall, you’re seeing other women.”

Amelia handpicked those society girls. He’d called them marriage material himself.

Now he mentioned remarrying.

It was absurd.

Wesley walked slowly to the window, his eyes dark like still water.

“It’s just dating.”

Under his mother’s deliberate arrangements, he’d met countless young women by chance.

He saw his own heart more clearly now.

Facing those girls, he didn’t feel his heart race at all–some even deliberately imitated Cecilia’s mannerisms.

His heart remained utterly still.

Cecilia scoffed coldly, “Wesley, you’re as scheming as ever.”

Always using her weaknesses against her.

“True, that’s exactly who I am,”

he admitted without hesitation.

Cecilia’s chest heaved with anger as she turned to leave.

Wesley coolly reminded her from behind, “Corrine pleaded guilty. The verdict will come swiftly. Once it’s delivered, if she waives her right to appeal… prison awaits.”

Cecilia clenched her fists.

Only two choices remained:

Convince Larissa to settle… or agree to remarry Wesley.

Both were tough.

Cecilia left.

Wesley turned back, gazing into the distance through the floor–to- ceiling window.

Why waste this chance to bring her back?

Holding back had only led her to be paired up with another man.

Why bother?

Generosity was never his virtue.

Cecilia stood at the entrance of the Carlton Group, letting the cold wind slowly temper her fury.

Just as she prepared to leave, she ran into Larissa.

Cecilia wore a beige wool coat, her leather boots clicking against the floor as she beamed with pride upon seeing Cecilia.

“Coming here is pointless, Cecilia.”

“Even if you kneel before Brother, he won’t release Corrine.”

“I’ve always been the most important person in his heart.”

Watching Larissa’s smug expression, Cecilia suddenly laughed.

“Are you sure?”

Larissa was absolutely certain. “Name one thing he’s ever blamed me for?”

Cecilia pondered–it was true.

But Larissa’s grin felt/jarring.

“I don’t believe it.”

She snorted derisively, radiating contempt.

Larissa lifted her delicate chin with confidence. “You’ve already been thrown out.”

A faint smile touched Cecilia’s lips. “Why not ask him now? Put my doubts to rest.”

Without hesitation, Larissa led Cecilia upstairs.

She barged into Wesley’s office. “Brother.”

Wesley frowned ever so slightly. “What is it?”

His gaze sharpened, locking onto Cecilia behind Larissa.

Cecilia stepped forward deliberately. “I accept.”

Unease prickled Larissa–accept what?

She turned to Wesley.

His features softened. “Good.”

Pressing the intercom, he summoned Mr. Wilson. “Take the lawyers to handle Corrine’s case.”

Elijah acknowledged and left.

Larissa shot Cecilia a triumphant smile.

See? Still the same.

Cecilia burst out laughing, her tone dripping with sarcasm, “Thanks,

Wesley,”

Thanks?

Larissa froze, taking a moment to process that Wesley had sent Elijah to the police station not to imprison Corrine, but…

to secure her release.

“Brother, she hurt me. You can’t do this.”

Tears welled in her eyes, all traces of her earlier arrogance downstairs vanished.

Wesley’s expression remained impassive. “Aren’t you standing here perfectly fine?”

His tone held an unprecedented coldness.

Larissa couldn’t accept it, glaring at Cecilia with pure hatred.

“It was you.”

Cecilia raised an eyebrow. “Yeah, it was me.”

She’d been reluctant before, but Larissa’s smug, gloating face was utterly revolting.

Didn’t she boast about always having Wesley’s favor?

Cecilia would shatter that delusion herself.

Thinking this, the idea of remarrying suddenly seemed less unbearable.

“From now on, you’ll have to call her sister–in–law.”

Larissa gritted her teeth.

She never imagined her carefully laid plans would be ruined by Cecilia before they’d even begun.

She and Cecilia were inherently incompatible.

What shocked her more was that Wesley was still trying to win Cecilia back.

His love for Cecilia was so deep.

She was both unwilling and jealous.

“Wesley.”

“You should indeed make her my sister–in–law.”

Wesley didn’t even glance at Larissa.

He stood firmly on Cecilia’s side.

Larissa’s expression twisted uncontrollably.

Cecilia, having seen enough of Larissa’s frustration, turned to leave.

Wesley instantly caught her movement. “Where are you going?”

“To pick up Corrine.”

“I’ll go with you.”

Wesley took his coat and walked to Cecilia’s side.

Larissa stomped her foot in anger. “Wesley.”

Wesley paused. “Let the driver take you home. The wedding’s in three days. Behave.”

He naturally took Cecilia’s hand and left.

Larissa’s eyes reddened.

She knew Cecilia’s return meant trouble.

Gritting her teeth, she told Amelia.

She believed Amelia would be more anxious than her.

At the police station entrance, Cecilia waited for Corrine.
