Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 190

Nor did he desire to disrupt the rules for there was not much to gain if he did. After all, as to this young Great Healer, there hadn’t been any supporting information he could gather to understand her well.

Alden held the business card between his fingers. This was the kind of connection that everyone in the elite circles would kill to have.

A renowned broker among elites. Sure, he was part of the upper crust himself, but as a broker, he possessed more connections than most aristocrats could dream of.

"Now I believe what he said," Alden murmured, his voice low. "Our daughter... she might actually know medicine."

Mrs. Hawke couldn't help but interject, "But surely she isn't more skilled than all those professionals, right?"

Even as she said it, doubt lingered in her voice.

"Perhaps we just don't know her well enough," Alden sighed heavily. "If only we'd known sooner."

Gaze darkening, Mrs. Hawke felt a twinge of remorse. "If only. If I'd known back then, I would've chosen my own daughter, no matter what."

Arabella still lived with them, yet the warmth they once felt for her had cooled considerably.

Meanwhile, Alistair sidled up to Dorian, a grin playing on his lips as he spoke in a subdued voice. "Seems like you're particularly sensitive when it comes to this Sunny girl."

Dorian's expression remained grim; he kept silent as Alistair chuckled briefly. "Can't blame me for being curious, Dorian. I remember you had a thing for Sunny back in the day. Then, out of nowhere, she transferred schools, moved away, vanished. I'd love to know what happened. But I also know Sunny supposedly bullied Arabella, and you probably retaliated against Sunny for that, right?"

Dorian took a swig of wine, the rich red liquid sliding swiftly down his throat, his steely face tinged with a tad redness.

"Arabella said Sunny and her friends bullied her, put bugs in her backpack, so I..."

For the first time, a flicker of regret flickered in Dorian's eyes. Alistair could guess what came next.

"So what happened to Sunny then? And how does Miranda know about all this?"

Dorian shook his head. "I don't know. Sunny vanished, moved away. I tried everything to find her, but nothing. As for Miranda knowing, I have no idea,” Dorian kept on, his voice low. “But I suspect she knows where Sunny is now."

Alistair fell silent for a moment, his gaze drifting to Arabella, who was deliberately posing for the cameras. "Have we done a lot of things we shouldn't have, for her?"
