The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 366

Cian cultivated an incredible variety of herbs with unmatched medicinal value, cementing his legacy as a top-tier national researcher. Even Nikolai feels a surge of reverence and nostalgia for his grandfather as he surveys the vibrant fields and the rare specimens housed in the glass conservatories. Cian lived past a hundred, devoting his entire life to pharmacological research and building the company. His was a life truly well-lived.

This only deepens Tara's sorrow. If her grandfather were still alive to see the current state of the Dennis Group and his family, it would break his heart. Perhaps he sensed this decline before he died. Why else would he leave her thirty percent of the company? He didn't just give her shares—he entrusted her with all his formulas, cultivation techniques, and deep-seated secrets.

Amidst this atmosphere of respect, Jade feels absolutely no sentimentality. She always hated the old man and secretly wished for his death, especially since he never paid her any mind. Now, she only feels a smug sense of triumph, mixed with a sliver of awe—not for the dead grandpa, but for her biological mother. The woman's ability to secure a secret formula that revived these doomed crops is genuinely impressive.

Nikolai beams as he looks over the thriving fields. "Jade, you outdid yourself. The crops look incredible."

Jade's smile widens as she feigns modesty. "It's a team effort, Nikolai. I just did my part. Even when I was acting, I spent all my free time studying botany and pharmacology. Maybe my lack of focus is the reason I never excelled at anything."
