Betrayed By Husband, Stolen By Brother In Law-Chapter 47: Do Something

"What are we going to do now, father? If Melanie insists on marrying Adam, then everything will go to him..." Madam Collins muttered as she clenched her hands on the desk!

Robert Collins continued to think as Spencer as Spencer asked slowly, "Grandfather? Can you not stage an accident again?"

Madam Collins nodded agreeably," Yes, yes. Just have someone break his leg again. It's all because of that wretched Melanie that this is happening! If I had known she would become such a thorn in my side, I wouldn't have held back all these years—I would have made her life miserable from the start!Same goes for Adam! I am the one who had to raise him, meet everyone as his mother and in the end, he is here to take my son's right! The best thing would be for him to die this time!"

"Once Adam is gone, we'll simply replace Spencer and have him marry Melanie, for real. Let her step foot back into this family, and then I'll make sure she regrets living for the next three years!"

Spencer nodded his head in agreement and was about to say something, when Sir Collins roared as he slammed his fist against the desk. "Shut up both of you! You think this is going to be as easy as it was three years ago? Do you have any idea what we're up against now?"

"Three years ago, we held every advantage," Robert seethed. "Melanie was naïve, innocent—easy to manipulate and already in love with Spencer like we had planned... And Adam? He was away, completely unaware of what was happening here. We controlled the narrative, dictated the terms, and no one would have been able to stand in our way."

"But now? Now everything has changed. Those two have joined hands, united against a common enemy which is us, while watching each other's backs. And that," he jabbed a finger toward Spencer, "puts Spencer at a severe disadvantage. He no longer has control over Melanie, and worse—Adam is there, ready to shield her from anything we try to pull."

Robert Collins shook his head, looking at the two imbeciles in front of him. Why was his daughter in law and grandson so foolish? If not for them being so lenient the last time, this would not have happened.

He shook his head and explained to them slowly," As for Adam, don't think he is going to be so easy to manage. How do you think Melanie got Spencer and Hallie's pictures? And what about the marriage certificate? Do you think she knew all of it? It has to be Adam who did this. But even now, on the surface, he has not alienated himself from us. He must have another motive. So, we will need to find that as well. Why is he still pretending to be family?"

"Even if we somehow manage to stop this cursed wedding, what then? Melanie isn't the same girl she once was. She won't let herself be coerced into a marriage of our choosing. No, she'll dig in her heels and refuse to marry anyone at all. And when that happens, we lose everything."

"Also, if you are foolish enough to think that 'something happening' to Melanie or Adam would make you the default benefactor, then you are the biggest idiot in this entire game! Do you really believe it would be that simple? That their disappearance or misfortune would conveniently put everything in our hands?"

His laughter was cold and bitter. "Samantha was no fool. Towards the end of her life, she had already begun to suspect something was amiss. Why do you think she changed her will behind my back? She did it quietly, deliberately, while I was away, ensuring that I had no chance to interfere. And that's not all."

"While on the surface she supported your father in the fued, she was quietly working on Adam, trying to coax him back into the family fold—planting doubts in his mind, making him rethink everything we worked so hard to keep him away from."

"We are not dealing with the same situation as before. This time, we are outnumbered, outmaneuvered, and one misstep could ruin everything. So, if you still think brute force or reckless actions will fix this mess, then you have already lost before the battle has even begun!"

Finally, when Robert was finished talking, Spencer asked in frustration," Then what do we do? Just sit back and watch as Adam takes everything? It's been twenty years, Grandfather—twenty years of that outsider leeching off this family, living under our name, enjoying the status that should have been only mine! I won't let him steal what rightfully belongs to me!"

"When Father finally cast him out after that incident, and Grandmother finally did not take his side, I thought we were done with him. That we had finally rid ourselves of the intruder. But now he's back—again. Why? How does he keep crawling his way back into our lives?"

To Spencer, Adam had never been his brother. From the moment he had stepped into this home when he was eight and Adam was six, holding his grandmother's hand who insisted that she treat him like a younger brother, he had resented Adam. As a child, it had ben easy to bully Adam and get him to stay out of the way! But as he got older, Adam had started to slip from his control. Spending more and more time with Grandma! At the time, he had thought it was a good thing, at least Adam going to grandma's house would give him his own space back!

Who would have thought that instead Adam was slowly coaxing grandma to put everything in his name. And that old woman! Did she have no vision at all? Treating outsiders like blood family!

Finally, Robert shook his head and smiled," No.Of course Adam has no right to any of these things. And we will make sure that he does not get it. Spencer, listen to me, this is what you will do."

As Robert Collins outlined his plan, Spencer nodded along. He was willig to do anything it took.
