Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 495

Ten days ago, Kayla was trying on a new dress—a light blue, off-the-shoulder gown with a flowing hem that fluttered gracefully as she walked, giving it the appearance of rippling water. It was handpicked for her by Gabrielle, and Kayla adored it, admiring herself from every angle in the mirror.

She eagerly picked out various pieces of jewelry to match, opting for items that were both expensive and unique. She clung to one piece, unwilling to part with it, while coveting another with longing eyes. Immersed in her indulgence, Kayla wished she could wear all the jewelry at once.

Behind her, Gabrielle watched with a hint of contempt in her eyes, scoffing inwardly, "So petty and unsophisticated. No matter how pampered she was by the Fullers for over a decade, she can't change her true nature."

Gabrielle stepped forward and asked with an air of charity, "Do you like them? Then take them all. Have the staff pack everything up and send it to the Carrell residence."

"Thank you, Aunt Gabrielle!" Kayla exclaimed in delight, clinging to Gabrielle's arm and affectionately saying, "Aunt Gabrielle, you're the best!"

"If you really think so, then help me out with something." Gabrielle patted Kayla on the cheek, then said with a smile, "My girl, take a few of my men with you and bring the Fuller couple to me."

Kayla froze, unsure if she had somehow upset Gabrielle. She quickly tried to reassure her, saying, "Aunt Gabrielle, I've already cut ties with the Fuller family. According to our blood, you're my true family!"

"That's precisely why, as part of the family, you should contribute. Besides, this is your cousin's request. He has a use for the Fuller couple."

Use? What use?

Kayla wanted to ask more but was silenced by Gabrielle's sharp gaze.

Gabrielle sneered, "Kayla, you're not hesitating because of some lingering gratitude toward them for raising you, are you?"

"Of course not! It'd be my pleasure to help you and Pete!" Kayla replied sweetly, her flattering words putting a smile on Gabrielle's face.

"Good girl. Take care of this properly, and Pete will be pleased when he returns."
