The Lost Heiress 322

Chapter 322 Things Left Unsaid

Finished

Thinking back on what Quinn had said–that Dora had only just returned to her side a few months ago–combined with Dora’s own unintentional mention that Quinn had been too busy to be around, Sierra couldn’t help but feel a little heavy- hearted.

She excused herself, saying she needed to make a phone call, and stepped out of the hospital room. Not long after, Johnathan followed her out.

“You mad?” Johnathan asked, watching her carefully.

Sierra shook her head. “Not really. I know what Mateo’s like.”

She didn’t want to dwell on that, so she changed the subject. “I actually brought Dora here to talk with Quinn about what we should do with her. I’m going back to school tomorrow–I can’t watch her all day anymore. What’s the plan for Dora?”

Johnathan had been thinking about that for the past couple of days too. He’d considered hiring a nanny, but he didn’t like strangers in his space. And more importantly, with Dora’s current state, he wasn’t comfortable leaving her completely in someone else’s care. After a moment, he said, “I’ll take her with me for now. I’ll bring her to the office.”

Sierra looked surprised. She hadn’t expected Johnathan to say that. “You sure?”

After all this time, she’d come to know Johnathan pretty well.

To people who didn’t know him, he might seem easygoing. But in reality, he was picky and hated dealing with hassle. Yet here he was, volunteering to take care of Dora.

Then she suddenly remembered something Quinn had said and couldn’t help but ask, “Do you like kids?”

Johnathan clearly froze for a moment before answering, “No.”
