The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress

Chapter 577

Citrine had no surgeries scheduled that afternoon, so she stayed in her suite to rest.

That was when Park showed up unexpectedly, catching her a bit off guard.

"Mr. Atkinson?" she asked, surprised.

For a moment, Citrine wondered if something had gone wrong with his son's operation, and her brow furrowed slightly as she prepared to ask. But before she could, Park spoke up, his face filled with anticipation.

"President Carmichael, I came to ask if there's any chance The Atkinson Group could rejoin Blood Rain?"

Citrine was taken aback for a split second, but quickly recovered, offering him a warm smile. "Of course."

Park had originally withdrawn from Blood Rain out of fear that the Mirage Cay crowd would target his family. Now, after much consideration, he'd come to the decision to return.

President Carmichael hadn't held his departure against him and had even saved his son's life. The Atkinsons owed her a debt they could never repay. If, after all that, he still insisted on staying away from Blood Rain, it would be the height of ingratitude.
