The lost heiress never forgiven

Chapter 506 A Calculated Encounter

After handing the contract to his assistant to finalize the share transfer, Jonathan began to think over his upcoming meeting with Victor.

What he didn’t know

that, at that very moment, Sierra was running into Victor face–to–face.

She hadn’t gone out in quite some time. But today, Autumn had called, saying that Professor Martin had fallen ill.

Sierra had always been grateful to Professor Martin. As soon as she hung up, she had someone drive her to the hospital.

She instructed the bodyguards to stay hidden and made her way to the professor’s room–only to run directly into a foreign man.

She didn’t recognize him, but he clearly knew who she was.

Victor had thoroughly investigated Jonathan–and naturally, Sierra had come up in his research as well.

He always made exceptions for brilliant minds. He didn’t understand much about biochemistry, but he knew just how remarkable Sierra was in her field.

Speaking in a foreign language, he struck up a conversation, asking questions about the hospital. Sierra answered, but her expression stayed guarded.

Seeing her wariness, Victor smiled. “You truly have a kind heart.”

Despite being cautious, she had still responded to him–just in case he really needed help.

It had been a long time since he’d met someone so gentle. She reminded him of the love of his life.

Even though he had imprisoned her and done terrible things, every time he injured himself on purpose, she’d still soften.
