The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 736

She wants so desperately to tell him that she came back. That she stopped misunderstanding him, that she learned how to communicate and see the truth. She wants to tell him she found a man who loves her unconditionally, a man who will protect her fiercely, just like her father once did.

Most of all, she wants to promise him that she will destroy every single person who played a hand in his death. Jovani, Jade, Gregory Sinclair, and whoever is pulling their strings—she will burn them all to the ground.

But they are separated by death, and her promises fall on empty air. A single tear escapes, sliding down her cheek to land on the dark fabric of her dress.

Suddenly, a faint sound breaks the silence. Though barely audible, her trained senses catch it instantly.

Tara slowly turns her head, wiping her cheek. A nurse is wheeling a frail woman in a wheelchair toward the memorial. It's Deanna.

Tara isn't entirely surprised. The family had tried desperately to keep Charles's death a secret from Deanna to prevent another mental collapse, but a secret of this magnitude in a family like theirs is impossible to bury forever.

Deanna stares at her biological daughter, sitting utterly alone before the memorial portrait. For a fleeting second, Deanna's mind violently rejects reality. She prays she is trapped in a nightmare.

Years ago, Deanna's only dream was a simple, happy life with her husband and four children. After having three boys, the arrival of her daughter was the greatest miracle of her life. They had planned out every milestone—how they would raise her, protect her, and one day walk her down the aisle.
