<strong>Chapter 1620:</strong>


    “Precisely why I can’t stand idle,” Elyse countered. “I must seed where my father couldn’t.”


    Celeste’s rage gave way to deep breaths before she continued. “You’ve gone mad! I’m booking your return flight this instant. Get out of that cursed ce!”


    Elyse exhaled softly. “I’m bound here until this ys out.”


    “What are you saying?” Celeste’s voice wavered with confusion.


    “Reba’s watchdogs monitor my every move. Any attempt to flee would be thwarted instantly. But don’t fret. I know what I’m doing.” Her words sent ice through Celeste’s veins.


    After an eternal pause, Celeste’s voice softened. “You’re your father’s mirror image—both stubborn to the core. I failed to stop him, and now I can’t stop you. The thought of history repeating itself terrifies me.”


    Elyse’s voice carried quiet determination. “That’s precisely why I came. I’ll drag Reba’s schemes into the light.”


    Celeste scoffed. “You? What makes you think you can seed?”


    “I am Rickey’s daughter. This battle belongs to me.”


    “Such arrogance,” Celeste muttered.


    A softugh escaped Elyse. “Being my father’s daughter gives me that right, doesn’t it?”


    As Celeste fell silent, Cody’s voice emerged. “Elyse, my faith lies with you. What Rickey and I couldn’t achieve, you can. Reim your father’s honor. Don’t let her triumph.”


    Elyse’s voice rang with conviction. “I won’t disappoint you.”


    Cody hummed approvingly before ending the call.


    Chloe’s muscles coiled with tension as Elyse’s words sank in. She sprang to her feet, her voice quivering. “This isn’t just a performance, is it? You’re making it sound like we’re marching into battle!”


    A softugh escaped Elyse’s lips. “Your instincts serve you well. This is indeed a war, and Reba stands as our adversary.”


    The weight of this revtion struck Chloe silent, color draining from her face. When she finally found her voice, it emerged as barely a whisper. “Will we survive this?”


    Elyse’s response carried unwavering certainty. “Death isn’t in our future. We’ll both emerge from this unscathed.”

    Though Chloe nodded slowly, her mind churned with fresh concerns. “Surely Jayden knows about this dangerous undertaking? You didn’t keep him in the dark, did you?”


    A reassuring smile graced Elyse’s features. “He’s fully aware.”


    Disbelief painted Chloe’s expression. “He actually gave his blessing to something this perilous?”


    The shock proved too much, sending her copsing back into her chair. Elyse methodically packed her belongings before lifting her gaze. “Let’s stretch our legs and find some dinner.”
