The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 625 No Hard Feelings

The moment Sierra said those words, Sophia was stunned. She immediately let

go of her and said, "Sierra, calm down. It's always safest to keep your money in

your own hands.

"Even though your parents came with you to Dithoria State, the businesses your

family owns are still the result of their hard work. Don't give it all up just because

you're upset with Samuel."

"See, Sophia? That's the difference between you and Samuel," Sierra said, her

smile more heartbreaking than her tears.

She explained, "Samuel actually built a successful business overseas. He's done

well for himself and made good money. But when I returned to Amberton, and we

did the DNA test confirming I was my parents' daughter, Samuel kept saying he

didn't care about the Remington estate. Still, everything he said hinted that he

wanted it.

"The same went with Sinclair Group. At first, he claimed it meant nothing to him,

saying he didn't want it, but he totally changed once we got back to Dithoria State.

I don't know how someone can flip like that... unless he'd been pretending the

entire time we were abroad."

Sierra's eyes turned red, and tears slipped down before she could stop them.

Sophia handed her a tissue, and Sierra tried to smile through it, but it looked more

pained than the tears themselves.

Sierre mumbled through tears, "Sophia, I'm sorry. I was overseas all these years

and never did anything to help you or Ms. Blair. I really am sorry."

"You didn't hurt me, so what are you apologizing for?" Sophia said as she wiped

away Sierra's tears. "Sierra, just make sure this is what you truly want."

"I've thought it through," Sierra replied bitterly. "Compared to a lifetime of fear and

disgust every time I think about him, I'd rather deal with the short-term pain of

ending it now. Sophia, don't worry about me."

"How could I not worry about you?" Sophia's eyes started to water too. "When

Mom brought you home to the Sinclairs, I was so happy. I'd always wanted an

older sister, and you were the one who made that dream come true."

She added, "My relationship with Samuel was never good to begin with, even

when we were kids. Once we got older, it just got worse. Sierra, I just want you to

be happy."
