Unveiling the True Heiress Chapter 13



Chapter 13 Do You Not Remember Me? 

After leaving the head teacher’s office. Meredith sighed in relief. 

Is Professor Stormborn really him! 

The Stormborn family appears friendly and harmonious on the surface, but in reality, they are ruthless and cunning. 

“Meredith, allow me to bring you to the exam room.A warm, magnetic voice sounded behind Meredith, bringing her back to reality. She stopped in her tracks and turned around. 

A handsome, tall man stood in the long corridor, smiling at her. Autumn sunlight shrouded him, giving him an elegant glow, 

“No need… 

Before she could finish her refusal, Zenon made a stride with his long legs and came to her side. 

“It’s no trouble. I’m going that way.” His tone brooked no argument. 

Meredith was rendered speechless. 

Rufus, who was waiting in the corridor, could not help but call out to Zenon, “Zen…” 

You’re not going the same way. The principal is still waiting for you! 

Zenon glanced at Rufus. His gaze was sharp and piercing beneath his gold–rimmed glasses. 

“The weather is nice today, haha.” Rufus immediately switched the topic. He scratched his head and looked. around awkwardly. 

“Let’s go.” Zenon turned to Meredith. 

Looking at his handsome face, well–defined features, and the smile on his lips, his murderous gaze from carlier seemed only a figment of Rufus’s imagination. 

Rufus remained silent. 

Boss, can you not show your favoritism that obviously? But this lady is beautiful… 

Meanwhile, Meredith followed Zenon, unaware of what the two men were thinking. 

With their attractive appearances, the two walking along the corridor looked like a beautiful scene from a painting. 

Zenon suddenly stopped at the turn of the stairs, causing Meredith to immediately halt her steps to avoid colliding with him. 

“Have we met somewhere?” Zenon turned around and looked deep into Meredith’s eyes. 

Meredith’s heart skipped a beat. Still, she remained expressionless and stepped back. “Professor, your line is outdated.” 

Chapter 13 Do You Not Remember Me? 

Does she not recognize me? Or is she refusing to? 

Zenon, towering at over six feet tall, seemed intimidating to Meredith, who was only slightly over five feet tall. The man before her now seemed entirely different from the refined gentleman a moment ago

Meredith instinctively backed away while Zenon stared at her intently, continuing to approach her. She tried to retreat further but found herself backed against the wall. 

“Do you not remember me? Naomi Stormborn!” 

Zenon propped an arm against the wall, looking down at Meredith with a complex expression in his deep- set eyes. The name sent a slight tremor through Meredith’s heart. Despite her precautions, Zenon still recognized her. 

Seventeen years ago, she was switched at birth and raised in the Stormborn family for six years. Eleven years ago, the Stormborn family’s patriarch passed away. He had named his third son as his successor on his deathbed. However, the designated successor was suddenly murdered before he could take over as the new head of the family. 

All the evidence at the scene pointed to Meredith’s father at the time, the sixth son, Yanis Stormborn. Everyone accused Yanis of murdering his brothers to seize power, leading to his imprisonment. 

Meredith’s mother did not believe her husband would harm his brothers. After months of investigation, she finally found a clue. However, she got into a car accident on her way back to Stormborn Manor and passed away. The driver also died on the spot. 

Thankfully, Meredith’s maternal grandmother suspected a sinister plot and acted quickly to protect Meredith. She set the house on fire, faked Meredith’s death, and escaped to the countryside with her. Otherwise, Meredith might not have grown up safely. 

Meredith felt a surge of emotions as she recalled the past. Although she now knew Yanis and his wife were not her biological parents, she was forever grateful to them for raising her and knew she could never repay their kindness in a lifetime. 

Thus, she returned to the Northerndale to build her influence and gather evidence. Once she had enough evidence, she would go to the Caelburg to clear her foster father’s name and avenge her deceased foster mother. 

Until she found the real culprit, she would not easily trust anyone from the Stormborn family, even if the man before her was once the person she was closest to. 

“I’m not Naomi Stormborn. My name is Meredith Reign. Meredith suppressed the lingering fear in her heart and looked up, meeting Zenon’s bloodshot eyes. 

“No, your surname should be Kane. You’re from the Kane family!” Zenon said through gritted teeth. 

Meredith’s thick lashes trembled slightly. She quickly realized it was not a well–kept secret. Anyone could find out she was a Zane with some investigation. 

“Since you know, you should understand that we are unrelated. Please step aside.” 

“You…”

mind, prompting him to furrow his brow and scrunch his face in pain. 

Meredith frowned and glanced at Zenon’s hand braced against the wall. She noticed the visible veins on his skin, like he was trying hard to endure something 

Is he unwell? Has his illness recurred? 

“Are you okay… um… 

Just as Meredith spoke, a hand suddenly gripped her throat. 

Zenon’s eyes became increasingly bloodshot. His breathing grew heavy, and his expression was filled with pain. Why… did you… leave me…” 

His grip didn’t loosen, making it difficult for Meredith to breathe. She tried to pry his hands off, but it was futile. Her face gradually turned red. 

Rufus had just turned a corner when he saw Zenon strangling Meredith. He sprinted down the stairs in 

alarm. 

“What the heck? Zen! Let her go! You’re going to suffocate her!” 

It becamengly harder for Meredith to breathe. Her face turned as red as a beer. She might pass out
