Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 564

She couldn’t afford to jeopardize such a promising opportunity.

Lowering her hand, Mara sneered, “You’ve really become bold, speaking to me like that!”

Susan’s expression remained unfazed.

“Anyone who’s been mistreated by you for years would turn out Like this,” she replied.

After her biological mother passed away, Susan’s father remarried, transforming her life into a living nightmare.

Though she was his father’s legitimate daughter, her situation was even worse than that of an illegitimate daughter.

She had persevered through the years, focusing on her career, only to be pressured into marriage by her family.

They even used her grandfather’s medical bills as leverage.

Since her mother’s death, her grandfather’s health had declined, leaving him reliant on costly medication.

Susan couldn’t afford such expenses.

Where could she get so much money?

The only option she had was to accept the marriage.

In that moment, she found an odd sense of relief in the fact that Dane didn’t have feelings for her.

A bitter smile touched her Lips.

“Let’s go.

Don’t keep him waiting.

” Mara snorted.

Susan descended the stairs and found her father, Esteban Riggs, seated on the sofa.

When he saw Susan, dressed so much like his late first wife, his eyes briefly softened with emotion.

Susan locked eyes with him, her gaze icy and unyielding.

“Once I get married, I’ll cut all ties with this family.

”

Esteban’s heart ached at her words, but he kept his expression stern.

“If that’s what you want, so be it.

”

His pride prevented him from yielding to his daughter.

Without saying another word, Susan turned and walked out.

Esteban watched her leave, a mix of emotions flickering across his face.

Seeing his distress, Mara sat beside him and said, “Look at her, darling.

She’s more and more unruly now.

This marriage is a blessing for her, yet she talks about cutting ties with you.

Doesn’t she realize how hurtful that is? What an ungrateful girl.
