The Lost Heiress 252

Chapter 252 A Deal with the Devil

“Why?” Sierra couldn’t help but ask. She had always thought he had a good relationship with his grandfather.

“When I go back there, I stop being Jonathan Yeager,” Jonathan murmured against her ear.

Sierra could hear the frustration in his voice.

She reached up, gently running her hand along his back in comfort.

Now she understood why Jonathan never talked about his family.
