The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress

Chapter 333

Raymond moved fast. In just a few short months, the Carmichael Group had uprooted and settled in Crestwood. During those early days after the move, Raymond was so swamped he barely had a moment to himself.

Wanting to be closer to Citrine, the rest of the Carmichael family decided to relocate as well. Weston, missing his granddaughter terribly, simply moved straight into the new house Raymond had just bought in Crestwood.

Salome Carmichael, hoping to see her niece more often, requested a transfer from her company and joined JR Group's Crestwood branch. For now, she had no choice but to stay with her older brother.

Manley had noticed the Carmichael Group's activity from the very beginning. Deep Horizon Enterprises quickly followed suit, and just a few months later, Manley too moved operations to Crestwood. Without hesitation, he caught a late- night flight and shamelessly crashed at Raymond's place.

One weekend, Travis came home for his break, only to find the house eerily empty-just him and four walls.

Half the furniture and all the familiar things were gone. Travis stared at the emptiness in disbelief.
