The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 1651

This agreement came back into play once Miss Mira returned.

Mr. Austin Emmitt had his own business, which was doing quite well. However, managing the expansive Davis family empire was beyond his capabilities. Zach, the second son, pursued law and had no intention of leaning on the family for support. Expecting him to carry on the family legacy was out of the question.

Nick was being groomed as the heir, but he and Keir both knew that he wasn't interested in taking on the role. Meanwhile, Leo was fully engrossed in chasing his dreams in the entertainment industry. Asking him to take over the Davis family would be as futile as donating the whole estate to charity.
