The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 630 All Ties End Here

Samuel looked at Sierra, then slowly let his gaze drift across the others in the

room.

Jonathan and Melissa stared at him with open disgust. There was no attempt to hide it.

These were the people who had once treated him like their own son. Now, their gazes made it clear they could barely stand the sight of him.

If looks could kill, they might have already tried.

And then there was Samantha-his birth mother.

She had sent him abroad when he was young and never once visited during all those years. Even now that he was back, she still refused to see him.

The look she gave him now? Pure, bitter disappointment.

As for Sophia-his sister-the first time he called her after returning, they ended up in a screaming match.

That conversation ended in a fight, which shattered whatever bond they once had and turned it into complete hostility.

She wasn't here out of concern. There was no sincerity in her visit.

And Zachary? From the moment they met, the man had punched him square in the face. Clearly, he didn't see Samuel as any kind of brother-in-law or family at all.

Now, Sophia looked at him like he was nothing. Her gaze was cold, filled with contempt. If a stare could kill, she'd already have finished the job.

"Mr. Sinclair, I hope you calculate the exact amount you think I owe you," Sierra said when Samuel remained silent.

"Right here, in front of my parents, in front of my adoptive mom, in front of Sophia and Mr. Holt. And later, when Mr. Holden and Ms. Walker arrive, I plan to invite them all to bear witness. Let's make a clean break today. Once it's done, we're done. Don't come looking for me again."
