Victor pondered for a moment, then shifted his focus to Jose.

“He’s also a direct heir of the main Wynn bloodline. Don’t tell me he doesn’t have any ambitions?”

To Victor, that seemed impossible.

By Wynn family tradition, only a direct male heir from the main branch could become the next head of the family.

Jose wasn’t born of Wendy, but the woman named Susie had been legally wed to Chase. That made her son fully qualified.

Victor simply couldn’t believe Susie and her son weren’t tempted by the prospect.

With that, he gave the order: “Arrange for me to meet Susie.”

All he remembered about Susie was that she was Jonathan’s stepmother and that their relationship wasn’t close. Beyond that, he didn’t know much.

But Maddox instantly understood what Victor was aiming for.

“Susie and Ms. Wendy are close,” Maddox said. “She’s also been consistently kind to Jonathan over the years.”

“In fact, Jose once considered vying for the position, but Susie stopped him.”

Victor’s eyes narrowed. “You said she and Wendy are close?“.

That seemed to trigger something. He immediately had someone pull up Susie’s photo.

Susie, as Chase’s wife, kept a very low profile. Good photos were rare–most of what they found were from the wedding.

And even that wedding had been quiet and discreet, because of Jonathan.

Victor stared at the picture for a long time, but still couldn’t determine Susie’s identity with any certainty.
