The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 397 Discovery

Patrick wasn’t as easy to talk to. An hour before Susan’s call, he had already learned the truth. He knew everything that had happened in the Reed family over the past few days. Now, facing Susan’s request for money to treat Lillian, he lost all patience. “Susan, are you out of your mind?”

“She’s not even blood–related to us, and she almost got Stella killed.”
