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.

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