Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 365:

The Wilson family had been preparing for days to welcome Calvin’s daughter back home, yet she showed no interest in returning. As a result, the banquet had to be postponed repeatedly.

Iker began to question whether the woman Gilda had mentioned was simply a fabricated story, designed to gain control of the family business. He was eager to discover who she really was. After learning about her family’s wealth, she had stayed away for years, never once considering coming back. The lure of the Wilson family’s fortune was undeniable, and everyone wanted a piece of it, including Iker.

Mindy Wilson, Iker’s wife, suspected that the woman had returned to stake her claim to the Wilson family’s fortune, setting herself against the rest of the family.

“It’s clear why she’s come back,” Mindy remarked. “She’s after the family wealth.”

For over 20 years, Calvin had managed the family business, building an impressive fortune. Originally, Iker’s family had hoped for Calvin’s downfall, eyeing the opportunity to claim his wealth for themselves. But their plans were thrown into disarray with the unexpected return of Calvin’s daughter.

Elsa was known for being spoiled and not particularly sharp.

Iker relaxed slightly.
