Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth

Chapter 927

Chapter 927 The Outbreak of War (3) Internal Strife within the Collins Family

Oscar sat in his car driving down the street. He couldn't show himself now so he couldn't go back

directly.

He looked at messages on his phone and then told Theodore," Lillian took Una away."

Theodore nodded. This was what they expected early on. He couldn't help but smile and said to Oscar, This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

"So your charm isn't all that great after all."

Lillian still chose her family over him.

Oscar just ignored his words and said, "No matter what happens later, protecting Una comes first." The

meaning was clear-even if he encountered danger, Theodore would protect Una first.

"You've brainwashed me so many times." Theodore leaned back in his chair, resting his head on the

back of his hands.

"I get it. Anyone could die in this accident, but Una can't."

Oscar nodded.

Theodore looked out the window at the city, the peace of which was protected by Oscar, with the risk of

losing everything.

Lillian returned to the Collins family.

Not far from the castle, Rowan had someone intercept their car. The guards didn't dare to harm her and

Una, so they couldn't fight back and were quickly subdued by Rowan's men.

Lillian left smoothly incredibly. But it wasn't entirely unexpected either. Without Oscar around, Oscar's

people would be scattered like sand. Her father also realized this and was confident enough to act

accordingly.

Back home, Rowan was waiting for her along with Mathew, who now sat in a wheelchair. He deeply

hated Oscar and wished he could die immediately, and he also held some grudges against his sister,

for she had made him a scapegoat for herself. Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen into such a

predicament.

"Lillian, you're finally back," Rowan said happily upon seeing her.

Finally, he managed to trick Lillian into coming back. On the one hand, there was their father-daughter

relationship and thus he didn't want his daughter dead at his hands; on the other hand, if Lillian didn't

listen, he would resort to cruel methods. More importantly, if Oscar still had any tricks up his sleeve,

Una would become their shield again; if Oscar died, Una would also "accidentally" die as well.

He never thought about leaving behind enemies, no matter if they were Oscar's or Cian's children.

Cutting off all ties was necessary for an imperial family like theirs.

At this moment, Lillian had no idea what exactly Rowan was thinking. She only thought that her father

wanted to ensure her' and Una's safety or perhaps use Una as leverage against Oscar. She never

considered that he would hurt them both.

"Come here let me hold Una." Rowan reached out his arms, with a face full of love.

Lilian handed over little innocent-looking Una without hesitation. Rowan held her close with an evil

smile on his face.

Looking at little Una, who looked adorable and innocent, he silently said to himself, "I'm not being a

cruel grandfather. It's your fault. You shouldn't exist in this world."

"Father," Lillian hadn't noticed anything unusual about Rowan and asked, "What's our next move?"

Rowan spoke while watching Una in his arms, "Once we receive news of Oscar's death after his arrival,

I'll take down all of his men. Everything is in place; we just need the right moment."

Hearing Rowan talk about Oscar's death made Lillian feel uneasy. In fact, she had another purpose for

coming back this time.

Looking at her father, she finally gathered the courage to speak up, "Can we spare Oscar's life?"

Rowan had been pretending to joke with Una until now but his expression changed instantly.

"What did you say?!" He glared at Lillian fiercely.

"I mean, can't we just control him? We don't have to kill him off completely. I understand Father's

philosophy of cutting off the roots when it comes to enemies, but once Oscar loses all power and

influence, he won't be a threat anymore..."

"That's enough! I don't want to hear any more nonsense from you!"

"Father, I admit it. I like Oscar." Knowing that reasoning wouldn't work on him, Lillian played her

emotional card instead. She thought that since her father had loved her so much since childhood if she

begged for something, he would soften up a bit.

This was actually why she chose to leave the castle today-she wanted to stop her father from killing

Oscar.

"You liked Cian before too but now that you've met Oscar, and you like him again. Love is the most

elusive thing. It can change anytime! Later on, you won't love Oscar and there will be better men than

him." Rowan said coldly.

"There won't be anyone better than Oscar. I only want Oscar. Wait until your plan succeeds, Father, I

can leave Northfield with him and help monitor him so that he never sets foot in Northfield again."

"So for Oscar, you're willing to leave me?"

"If I didn't care about you, I wouldn't have helped you get this far! If I didn't even care about you, I

would've told Oscar your plan already. But I haven't done so because I'm still loyal to our family. Now

that it won't affect our interests, couldn't you yield to a request of mine?"

"I can promise you anything else, but there is no way I will let Oscar live!" Rowan coldly refused.

"Father!"

"That's enough!" Rowan didn't want to argue with her, "I thought you were a smart person who wouldn't

let emotions cloud your judgment, but it seems like you and your sister are the same. Once faced with

emotions, you become foolish! Do you know that your sister ended up in jail because of her feelings for

Oscar and the terrible things she did? Do you want to follow in her footsteps?"

"I won't!" Lillian retorted, "I just want to be with the person I love. I won't harm your interests! I have

boundaries!"

"Your request not to kill Oscar shows that you don't have any boundaries at all. I don't want to waste

any more time talking about this with you. The matter of Oscar is not something that can be influenced

by you. Go back to your room!" Rowan was merciless.

Lillian's eyes turned red. For the first time, she realized how cold and cruel her father could be towards

her.

She narrowed her eyes and said, "Since it's like this, don't blame me for not showing filial piety."

Rowan's face darkened.

Lillian went forward and took Una away quickly.

Rowan clenched his fists.

"I won't help Father anymore, nor will I let Una become a shield for you." Lillian spoke coldly as she

held Una close and continued, "The fight between you and Oscar will depend on who comes out on

top!"

"Lillian!" Rowan shouted at her harshly.

Lillian walked away while holding Una tightly in her arms. However, after only a few steps away from

him, the bodyguards blocked their path in front of them.
