The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 829

"Perfect! I need to head back to the main office too. Let's go together." Hearing she is going to see Tara makes Alec practically vibrate with excitement. He looks ready to dive straight into the passenger seat.

"Who wants to go with you? Drive your own car!" Tricia snaps. She shoves him backward, slamming the door shut with a loud thud, and speeds off without looking back. She was generous enough to tell him her whereabouts, and this jerk still tries to push his luck!

Caught off guard, Alec stumbles back and lands on the concrete, groaning. "Such a violent woman!" he mutters, wanting to cry. Why does it feel like winning Tricia back is going to be a hundred times harder than fixing things with his sister?

It is all that bitch Jade's fault! He absolutely loathes her now, and he hates his past stupidity just as much. But whenever he remembers that Jake's ex, Lucinda, is actively going on blind dates and getting ready to settle down with a new partner, he feels a tiny bit better. At least Tricia doesn't have some annoying guy hovering around her yet! Sure, she is fierce and quick to resort to physical violence with him, but that same hostility keeps any unwanted suitors far away. Thinking about it this way gives him a sliver of hope. Their situation isn't entirely a lost cause. Taking a few extra kicks from her seems like a fair price to pay. He picks himself up, dusts off his pants, and a renewed sense of determination sparks in his eyes.

"What did you just say? You got thrown out by that old hag at the Sinclair Manor?" Jovani slams her hand hard on the table as her daughter, Jade, returns home crying and recounting the absolute humiliation she endured.

That wretched old woman has gone too far! Humiliating Jade in front of everyone is the exact same thing as humiliating her! She knew the old lady wouldn't just easily agree to let Jade join the Sinclair family, but she never expected her to be so fiercely hostile, kicking her out without a second thought. She gave them zero respect!
