Claimed by the Crown Heir novel Chapter 83

Lucas sprinted forward, seizing her arm in a vice-like grip.

"Vanessa, where else are you going to hide?"

His grip was terrifyingly strong, his knuckles practically digging into her flesh. Vanessa frowned sharply in pain.

"Let go!"

"Why are you here?" Lucas didn't release her; instead, he tightened his hold, his tone commanding.

Harrison had dug into the woman sharing her exact name and discovered she was the eldest daughter of the wealthy Grant family in Sterling City.

After gleaning some details from Silas Sterling last night, Lucas had immediately chartered a private jet back.

Standing in the massive airport, he hadn't known where to find her, so he instinctively drove to Grant Enterprises.

He had only been trying his luck. He never expected to actually catch her here.

Was she truly the wealthy heiress of the Grant family, and not the destitute orphan he had always believed her to be?

The fury of being deceived crashed over him like a tidal wave.

Vanessa's expression was ice-cold. "I said let go. Did you hear me?"

When he remained motionless, anger surged in her chest. Without hesitation, she raised her hand and delivered a vicious slap across his face.

Smack!

The sharp sound echoed loudly through the parking lot.

Lucas's head snapped to the side, his eyes wide with utter disbelief.
