The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 756

Charlotte looked at the expression of shock on Sierra's face and couldn't help but smile. She nodded and gently pulled Sierra to sit beside her.

"It's true. Sky made some mistakes in the past, and we hope he'll be kinder and more open moving forward. One more friend is always better than one more enemy.

"Besides, Sierra, we watched you and Samuel grow up together. If you hadn't gone overseas, we likely would've watched you both grow into adulthood here.

"You knew each other as children. Now that you've returned, there's no reason you can't be friends again. Don't overthink it. Just treat Sky like an ordinary person."

Charlotte smiled. "I'm sure you already know about some of what happened with Sky. After all, Sophia is your sister.

"We don't want the two families to stay estranged. It's the Walker family that wronged Sophia. If there's a chance to make it up to her and the Sinclair family, we're willing to take it.

"And Sky is willing, too."

Sky nodded. "Yes. I've been working on making amends. I never wanted to go against Samuel. I really value the peaceful life I have now.

"Honestly, I thought a whole lot while I was in prison. I'm not the same person I was before. After someone goes through something major, they change. They become a completely different person.

"I treasure this life now. I won't make the same mistakes again."

Samuel and Sierra exchanged a glance, both finally feeling at ease.

"I just want a peaceful life too," Samuel said. "I love Sierra deeply. I don't want a divorce, so I'd do anything to avoid it."

"No more divorce," Sierra said, her eyes stinging with unshed tears. "Sky, is it okay if I still call you that? When I was little, I really envied your sister. You helped me a few times. Back then, I wished you were my brother from the bottom of my heart.

"I made mistakes, but I'm facing them head-on now. Can I ask you for one more chance?"

"I don't blame you," Sky said with a faint smile. "Honestly, I knew you were using me. But I wanted to make it up to Sophia, so I let you do as you pleased.

"But the fact that you admitted it and apologized in person really surprised me. Let's call it even with this. From now on, we're friends."

"Thank you. Really, thank you."
