Chapter 1152


    But this wasn’t enough to make Tyler out of the inheritance. She made Liana get close to Tyler, made


    Lians fall for him, and then used Liana’s feelings to reel Tyler In. She figured, once na and Tyler


    were head over heels for each other. A guy like Tyler wouldn’t be able to resist Liana’s charm.

    But Tyler, the stubbom mule that he was, didn’t fall for Liana no matter how hard they tried. Even when


    Karan had subtly hinted for Liana to make her move in his bathroom and bedroom. Tyler didn’t fall for it


    Karan thought her n was going down the drain until she spotted Tyler sneaking into Liana’s room


    one night.


    She quietly trailed after him and saw Tyler standing by Liana’s bed, staring at her for the longest time


    before he suddenly leaned in and kissed her. He locked just like a kid who’d been caught with his hand


    in the cookie jar.


    Seeing signs of Tyler’s feelings for Liana, Karan knew her n was halfway to victory Tyler grew


    bolder, stealing kisses from Liana in her sleep, each time staying longer than thest but never going


    any further.


    Karan was waiting for the day Tyler would screw it up, but she didn’t see Hackett’s dispute with his


    father about his career choiceing Karan was blindsided. Even after Tyler’s reputation was in the


    gutter, Hackett still hadn’t given up on making Tyler his heir. When she heard Hackett say that Tyler


    would take over the family business if he chose to major in finance, she started to panic.


    She didn’t n for all these years just to have Tyler be the heir. What she wanted was for her own


    son to take over. If Tyler got his hands on the power, she’d be a nobody in the Howell family, possibly


    even sidelined by Tyler. She was afraid Tyler would find ways to get back at his mother once he grew


    up.


    To halt Tyler’s rise, Karan thought about drugging him, coercing him into sleeping with Liana. But then


    Jules brought Liana home, and Karan saw her chance.


    She immediately pushed Liana towards Jules, creating opportunities for them to be alone together,


    deliberately making Tyler jealous. Karan knew that once a young boy gets jealous, he’s likely to lose


    his temper and make a mistake.


    But Tyler was tough. Even when he saw Julesing out of Liana’s room a few times, he chose to


    ignore it. Karan was at her wits end, so she kept on stoking the fire. By the time they were about to


    graduate high school, she started openly and secretly encouraging Jules to confess his feelings to


    Liana.


    At that time, Jules liked Liana but was afraid she didn’t feel the same. Karan told him that if Liana didn’t


    like him, she would have rejected him a long time ago. She must be shy. In reality, Karan was


    persuading Liana not to turn Jules down, but Jules was none the wiser. He took Karan’s word for it and


    confessed to Liana on a ferry, which was also Karan’s idea.


    Karan waited for Jules to take Liana on the ferry, then found Tyler and told him Jules was going to ask


    Liana to be his girlfriend. Then they were going to travel the world by boat. To give Tyler the push he


    needed, Karan grinned at him and said, “Who knows if they’ll get too close after spending two months


    together like that. If they do, Liana will marry Jules. They make quite the couple. Tyler went pale with


    rage, cursing Liana for being as shameless as Karan before running off like a madman.


    Karan wasn’t sure if the furious Tyler would deal with Liana himself or send someone after her. But


    judging by what she knew of Tyler, he’d choose thetter because he was torn between hatred and


    fondness for Liana. He might not even be aware of his fondness, which made his hatred for Liana even


    stronger.


    Luckily she guessed right. That dimwit Tyler actually thought Liana was going to ruin off with another


    man. He thought a woman like Liana couldn’t be without a man. So he sent a bunch of guys to scare


    her, which ended up working in Karan’s favor


    To let those guys have their way, Karan had someone injure the old butler who had raised Tyler, then


    tricked the butler into calling Tyler toe back and help. The butler was probably knocked out. He


    held his bleeding head and quickly called Tyler, who was a skilled doctor.


    Tyler probably never knew this was his own doing. But whether he knew or not, Karan couldn’t help but


    laugh every time she thought about this coincidence. How could he be so stupid?
