Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 554

"Ethan, you were the closest to her. Why don't you give her a call?"

Damon asked, glancing at his older brother.

Damon was now an artist under Solflare Entertainment; if Mira acknowledged him, his career would skyrocket.

"I don't have the right to call her," Ethan replied softly. "It's her choice.

If she doesn't want to come, we shouldn't bother her."

They waited until the very end, but Mira never appeared. Instead, Roxanne and Mara showed up.

"What the hell are you doing here?"

Julian Mercer glared at them.

"We're here to pay our respects. We're Adrian's biological daughters too, didn't you know?"

Roxanne said with a sickly sweet smile.

"What kind of twisted scheme are you plotting now? Get the hell out. You're not welcome here. Security!"

"Now, that's just rude..."

Roxanne tried to argue, but the guards forcibly dragged them away.

...

With her enemies dropping one by one, the heavy burden of vengeance in Mira's chest finally began to lift.

Only Mara and Roxanne remained.

Once Ethan took control of Adrian's remaining estate, Fiona Quinn lost all her leverage. Since she knew nothing useful about Mira...

Roxanne was completely broke, so she abandoned the paralyzed woman to rot.

Deprived of her medical team, Fiona deteriorated rapidly.

Her dying wish was to see Mara one last time, but Roxanne flatly refused.

It wasn't until Fiona took her last breath that Roxanne handed the body over to Mara.

"I tried to set up a meeting, but she absolutely refused to see you. My hands were tied."

Mira said, a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

"You handled it perfectly fine without me."

Owen chuckled.

"Weren't you the one who told me to manage your business down here?"

"You could have taken a break to come help me out! What if I had lost?"

Mira teased him.

"You're a force of nature. You crushed two billion-dollar conglomerates in a month. I definitely don't have that kind of ruthless efficiency."

"Got time to teach me? I could use the cash."

Dominic West's voice suddenly echoed through the receiver.

"Dominic, you're there too? Teaming up with Owen to mock me?"
