The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 837

Looking back on it now, a suffocating wave of despair crashes over Deanna. She feels the urge to just end it all, to escape having to face the wreckage she created. But she quickly forces the dark thought down. She maintains her usual expression, refusing to let her children notice anything amiss and add to their worries.

Her three sons don't pick up on her internal struggle, as their minds are entirely occupied with figuring out how to win over their sister and build a solid relationship with their future brother-in-law.

"We should find a time to invite Danny out for a drink."

"Definitely. There's nothing men can't solve over a few drinks."

"But he actually has to agree to drink with us first. Given how we treated Tara, he probably doesn't even want to look at us," Nikolai points out the glaring flaw in their plan. They might not even get a word in with him, let alone share a pleasant drink.

"That's no big deal. Tara never wants to deal with us either, but as long as we're sincere and thick-skinned enough, we'll get there."

Jake and Nikolai consider Alec's optimistic logic and decide it actually makes sense. Ugh, the road to repairing their relationship with their sister is already agonizingly long. Now they have to factor in their brother-in-law too. It's all that damn Jade's fault!

Meanwhile, Tara has been working like a dog at the Dennis Group. She purged all the spies Jovani planted and replaced them with people she trusts, along with highly capable professionals hired at top dollar.

As for Nathaniel... she hasn't seen him in a long time. Ever since their falling out at the shareholder meeting, where she discovered he was Jovani's primary informant, their paths haven't crossed. It's a shame that one of her best potential partners is now strictly an enemy, but at least the losses were minimized. For the sake of the Monroe family's long-standing ties with the Dennises, she doesn't plan on pursuing the matter further.
