Unveiling the True Heiress Chapter 14



Chapter 14 I’ll Handle It 

Amidst the chaos, Meredith felt along Zenon’s strong arm and located his pressure points. She pressed on it with all her strength. 

Finally, Zenon released his grip. Meredith leaned against the wall, taking deep breaths of fresh air

“Bang!‘ 

Zenon clutched his head in pain and punched his fist forcefully into the wall beside Meredith. 

The pristine white wall immediately became stained with a blood–red fist print. 

“Zen!” Rufus immediately wrapped his arms around Zenon’s waist and pulled him away from the wall to prevent further injury. He shouted at Meredith, “Quick, call a doctor!” 

Meredith took a deep breath and observed Zenon’s struggling in pain. She could not help but feel a little frightened. After all, he had nearly choked her to death. 

“What are you standing there for? Hurry up! I can’t hold on much longer!” Rufus shouted again when he noticed Meredith making no move to leave. 

“Release him. I’ll handle it.” 

Meredith’s slender hand hung naturally by her side. Then, with a flick of her wrist, a silver needle appeared between her fingertips. 

Her calm demeanor dumbfounded Rufus. 

Damn it! Zenon turns into a ferocious beast whenever his condition strikes. Even two grown men can’t restrain him. How can a delicate woman like you handle him? 

As he pondered, Zenon suddenly elbowed him in the ribs. He groaned in pain and was pushed away before falling to the ground. 

Meanwhile, Zenon, now resembling a wild beast, was ready to attack Meredith next. 

Yet, Meredith stood calmly in place and remained unfazed. With a graceful swipe of her hand, she struck the silver needle on Zenon’s temple. 

Zenon froze for a second before falling toward Meredith. 

Rufus was stunned.. 

What the heck? She had a weapon on her! 

No, something’s strange. Not even two grown men can subdue Zenon when his condition strikes. Yet, this lady took him down with only one needle! 

Zenon gradually regained consciousness in the school infirmary.

A pair of soft hands massaged his temple with just the right amount of strength, inducing a soothing feeling throughout his body. It had been a while since he experienced such ease. 

He closed his eyes, pretending to be unconscious to savor the tranquility. However, the fingers on his temple moved away. Then, the girl’s indifferent tone resonated from above, “Wake up and stop pretending that you’re asleep,” 

Rufus, standing nearby, rushed to the bedside upon hearing that Zenon was awake. “Zen, are you okay? Quinton is on the way. You’ve never been unconscious for this long. You scared the life out of me.” 

Zenon knew he could not keep up the act any longer. 

“Get out!” he barked and sat up, emitting a chilling aura that caused Rufus to back away, feeling unjustly scolded. Rufus could not understand why his boss suddenly scolded him. He had no choice but to reply ‘yes‘ reluctantly and left. 

Meredith observed the scene silently. On the other hand, Zenon leaned against the infirmary bed and stared at his bandaged hand in a daze, seemingly recalling what happened earlier. 

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first,” Meredith said, turning around. 

She had wanted to leave earlier, but Rufus stopped her and insisted that she stay until Zenon woke up. After all, she was the one who knocked him out. 

“They won’t let you off so easily if they know you’re alive. Knowing the methods my brothers and sisters possess, they won’t hesitate to pursue you,” Zenon remarked as he looked at Meredith’s departing figure. His gaze seemed even sharper than usual without his gold–rimmed glasses. 

Meredith paused her steps as memories of past events replayed vividly in her mind. 

The infighting among the Stormborn siblings, my foster father was framed and imprisoned, and my foster mother died in a car accident. Yet, Zenon distanced himself from all these, saying they were the methods of his brother and sisters. Is he telling the truth? 

“Ah, you’re… Uncle Zen?” Meredith turned around and acted as if she just recognized the man before her. However, her gaze remained cold. 

Zenon could not help but smile inwardly upon seeing this. Isn’t her acting a little fake? 

Still, he did not expose her unconvincing act. Instead, his gaze softened as he said, “Weren’t you rushing to distance yourself from me?” 

Meredith did not answer his question but looked at him and asked, “What do you want?” 

She could not decipher his intentions. Will he reveal to the Stormborn family that I’m alive? 

Zenon noticed her guarded expression and disliked seeing her behaving this way with him. Even so, he remained calm and motioned for her to come closer. “Come here. Let me have a look at your neck

Meredith didn’t move. She looked at him emotionlessly and replied, “Uncle Zen, you’re ill!” 

Zenon remained silent. He knew he was ill, but the certainty in her tone gave him a strange feeling. 

“The medicine your

been suffering from chronic headaches for a long time.” 

Meredith recalled the scene when Rufus brought Zenon to the school infirmary, 

After the school doctor briefly attended to Zenon’s injuries, Rufus sent the school doctor away. He then. poured out a pill from a small bottle, fed it to Zenon, and went out to make a call. 

That was when Meredith noticed the pill. 

The shape of the pill resembled the medication her online friend, a doctor, had researched for treating headaches. Intrigued, she examined it more closely. 

Go on.” 

Zenon narrowed his eyes as he observed the girl before him displaying an attitude that kept people at bay. How did the little girl who used to bug me every day become like this? 

“These two types of medicine have certain side effects and should not be taken for an extended period. I learned holistic medicine from my grandmother, and I know how to cure your condition. Meredith said. 

She paused briefly before continuing, “But in return, you must help me conceal my secret from the Stormborn family until I come of

age.”
