Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 565

Chapter 565:

Eventually, Dane sighed. “Alright, a little bit.”

Susan’s face lit up. “Yes, Mom, I’m fond of spicy food!” It wasn’t until she finished speaking that she realized everyone was staring at her. She had inadvertently called Elaine “Mom.” Her cheeks turned a bright shade of red.

“Um, I—”

“Oh, it’s fine. I’m about to become your mother-in-law anyway,” Elaine replied with a gentle smile, ensuring Susan felt at ease.

“Yes, we’ll be a family,” Madisyn joined in, laughing. “Soon, we’ll be seeing a lot more of each other.”

Susan nodded, her eyes sweeping over the warm, welcoming faces around her. Her heart swelled with happiness.

Laughter echoed through the room, but Howard only managed a forced smile, barely touching his food. Madisyn noticed Howard’s detached demeanor and suspected he was preoccupied with thoughts of Milly. With a sigh, Madisyn pondered, why must love be so complicated in this world?

After the meal, Esteban and Susan made their way home.

“You’re getting married soon, so I’ve prepared a few things for you,” Esteban announced as he handed Susan a large box.

Susan accepted the box with a nod and opened it. Expecting perhaps an apartment or some money, she was utterly shocked to replace it contained not only several properties but also commercial shops—and astonishingly, all of his father’s shares in the Riggs Group! Susan was stunned.

It was typical of her father to provide her with a safety net, but this was beyond anything she had imagined, especially the shares.

“I don’t need so much,” she stammered, overwhelmed.

She tried to hand the share transfer documents back to Esteban. “This is too valuable. I can’t accept it.”

“You are the future owner of the Riggs Group,” Esteban replied calmly. “The shares will be yours later. These include not only my shares but also your mother’s.”

A trace of sadness flickered in Esteban’s steady gaze as he watched Susan embark on her path to happiness. It pleased him, yet he was acutely aware that they would spend less time together in the future.

For a brief moment, he felt a sense of reluctance.

“With your own assets, no one will dare look down on you. The Johns family is a good family, but you should still possess what’s rightfully yours,” Esteban declared.

Looking into her father’s eyes, Susan suddenly felt an inexplicable urge to cry.

“Are you really giving me the Riggs Group?” she questioned, her voice trembling slightly.

“That’s right.”
