Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 738

"Eleanor, who are you saying has a rotten heart?"

Lacey stared at her, genuinely confused.

"Did you even know that Mira publicly revealed her true identity at the engagement party?"

"What identity did she reveal?"

Eleanor nearly had another stroke on the spot, saved only by Mrs. Higgins's steadying grip.

"You have no idea who she actually is? What kind of pathetic mother are you?

"You spend every waking second crying about wanting your daughter back, and you don't even know what she does for a living?

"If you gave a damn about her at all, you'd have asked a single question, turned on a television, or spoken to your eldest son. You would have known."

Taking a harsh breath to compose herself, Eleanor continued.

"You know of Solflare Group, don't you?"

"Yes, I know of it."

"And do you know who owns Solflare Group?"

"No... Adrian Mercer always told me it was Owen Lance."

"Mira is the sole owner of the Solflare Group. Owen is simply managing her empire for her."

"How is that possible? I thought she only owned a small entertainment company?"

"That's because you are completely ignorant, or better yet, you just don't care about her at all.

"The only reason you want her back in your life is because you are miserable and lonely, and you need a crutch to lean on.

"If you still had that awful Mara Mercer playing the devoted daughter, would you even be bothering to look for Mira right now?"

"That's not true, Eleanor... I swear it isn't..."

At the mere mention of Mara's name, violent tremors wrecked Lacey's body, her words stumbling into a panicked mess.

That girl was her living nightmare, a permanent stain of humiliation she could never scrub away.
