The lost heiress never forgiven

Chapter 459 A Family Broken

“I don’t know what made you choose that path back then,” Sierra said calmly, “and I’m not here to judge what you’ve done over the years. But whatever the reason was, it doesn’t matter anymore. He doesn’t care

now.”

She continued, “And honestly, maybe that’s for the best. All you ever wanted was for him to live well. He’s doing that now. What more do you want from him?”

Susie was left speechless by Sierra’s words.

Their original intention had been to let Jonathan live a good life. Now that he was finally doing that–just like they had hoped–why weren’t they satisfied?

“People have feelings, you know.” Sierra glanced at her. “You were far too cruel to him.”

Right now, all Sierra felt was deep heartbreak for Jonathan. The woman he loved most in the world wasn’t his real mother. Instead, the woman he’d spent twenty years–hating turned out to be his biological mother.

How absurd. How cruel.

They thought of everything–except that you can’t take back the feelings someone’s already given.

They assumed that when the truth inevitably came out, Jonathan would let go of the past and forgive them because, after all, they’d been ‘forced into it.’

What a joke.

“I’ve got work to do. I’m heading back.”

With that, Sierra opened the car door and left.

Now that she knew the truth, she didn’t feel relieved–only angrier.

If she already felt this way, she couldn’t even imagine how Jonathan would react if he ever found out.

Susie remained in the car for a long time after Sierra left, only then asking the driver to return. Her face was filled with exhaustion.
