The Lost Heiress 381

Chapter 381 The Line in the Sand

Jonathan had never given it much thought before, but after spending so much time with Sierra, he’d come to realize just how much he despised these kinds of relationships.

He stood up. “Grandfather, I’m leaving.”

From now on, whether there was a reason or not, he no longer wanted to step foot in that house.

Wayne heard the meaning beneath his words and couldn’t help frowning. “Don’t forget what you promised me.”

Jonathan gave a low chuckle. “Grandfather, I don’t understand. You don’t fully trust me, so why insist on making me the head of the Wynn family?”

“You don’t want it?”

“No.”

Jonathan’s voice was calm. He had never cared about being the Wynn family’s successor. The only reason he hadn’t let because he didn’t want to hand it to Jose on a silver platter.

But now? He found it all meaningless.

“Someone else would be more suitable. Grandfather, I’m withdrawing from the Wynn family,” he said with firm finality.

Wayne’s expression changed completely. He hadn’t expected the conversation to take such a drastic turn.
