Rising from the Ashes The Heiress They Tried to Erase

Chapter 621:

Inside the MCN CEO’s office, Pattie had settled into her chair, scrolling through WhatsApp messages with absent focus, her thoughts clearly elsewhere.

The door opened and Maia stepped inside. Pattie immediately set her phone aside and rose to meet her. “There you are! Did you finally get Richard to leave?”

Maia’s smile carried a hint of embarrassment as she approached, placing a reassuring hand on Pattie’s shoulder. “Sorry for putting you through this again. Because of him, Richard had already disrupted the MCN office twice now.”

Pattie brushed off the apology with a gentle pat on Maia’s arm, though frustration crept into her voice. “Stop that, there’s no such thing as trouble between us.”

She let out a tired breath before continuing, “You know Richard just as well as I do. He couldn’t care less about anyone else’s feelings. Once he decides to make a scene, there’s absolutely no reasoning with him.”

In Pattie’s view, the Morgan family were all cut from the same cloth. They were self-absorbed people who used Maia without a second thought, never considering how their public outbursts would damage her reputation.
