The Lost Heiress 271

Chapter 271 No Room for Reconciliation

Finished

Johnathan had never expected to take over the Wynn family without a fight. For days now–long before the party–he’d been preparing. Quietly, thoroughly.

But he wasn’t ready to play all his cards just yet. Now, it was up to the Wynn family to make their move.

Still, there were people he wasn’t planning to forgive. The Zach family, for one–the same Zach family that Susie came from.

“You sure about this?” Mateo asked quietly.

Going after the Zachs meant there was no coming back. Once he made that move, there would be no more pretending–he’d officially burned that bridge with Susie.

He’d spent years away from the Capital, avoiding the filth. But now, they wouldn’t stop showing up. And he was done pretending to tolerate them.

The moment he said the words, they all understood–there was no turning back.

“Alright then,” one of them said. “Let’s start with the Zachs.”

They sat around, going over their plan.

When Johnathan checked the time, he stood up. “I’ve got to go. I need to make dinner.”

And just like that, he grabbed his jacket and walked out, giving no one a chance to stop him.
