The Lost Heiress 289

Chapter 289 Turning Point

“You didn’t know? She’s been going to the Astrophysics Institute these past few days, Autumn ca, deafy surprised.

Johnathan smiled politely. “She mentioned it once. I didn’t realize she was already over there?

“Sorry to bother you.”

He turned to leave, then suddenly looked back at Autumn.

“Sierra mentioned your parents had some trouble a while ago. Is everything resolved now?

“It is. Thank you for asking,” Autumn replied, pleasantly surprised that someone like Mr. Yaeger had remembered something so minor.

Johnathan nodded with a smile, but the second he turned away, his face fell.

He was sure Sierra had never told him about going to the Astrophysics Institute. He knew about the potential collaboration, but he didn’t know she was already involved.

He had suspected she was avoiding him. At first, he thought he was imagining things–but now it was clear. She really was avoiding him.
