Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 627

Susan, after responding, dove back into her work.

Her job during the day was tough, physically demanding work, but the quick cash made it worthwhile.

Susan wasn’t one to shy away from hard work-she just needed the money, and fast.

Amid her busy day, someone suddenly interrupted her.

She looked up, startled, to see Onyx, his face twisted with anger.

Without warning, he reached out to slap her.

But Susan wasn’t about to let that happen.

She swatted his hand away with surprising force.

Her physical strength had grown from the demanding work she’d been doing recently.

Onyx was taken aback.

He hadn’t expected Susan to fight back, much less push him away Like that.

He glared at her coldly.

“Susan, I underestimated you!”

Matching his icy tone, Susan replied, “I underestimated you, too.

”

They both knew there was more to their words than what was said.

Onyx sneered.

“Susan, we’re both outcasts from our families.

If I manage to become the family leader, you’ll benefit too.

But you’re too stubborn to see that.

”

“Should I be grateful for you pimping out me like I’m a commodity?”

A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y

Susan shot back, her voice dripping with irony.

“ALL rich families do it,” Onyx retorted, his face full of disdain.

“If you don’t offer something in return, why would they support you? You’re not special-other wealthy families have done the same.

Why can’t you?” In his mind, women were nothing more than bargaining chips.

Susan asked, “Does that include your mother?”

Onyx’s expression darkened.

He raised his hand again, but something in Susan’s eyes stopped him.

He knew that if he hit her, she wouldn’t hesitate to fight back.

Lowering his hand, Onyx demanded, “What’s going on between you and Dane?”

“Nothing,” Susan said coolly, though her heart twitched with pain.

“Nothing?” Onyx’s voice rose.

“Then why did Dane attack my family? Do you realize my family is ruined?”

He suddenly grabbed Susan’s shoulder and asked, “Are you his Lover? You claim to have self-respect, but you’re no different from those hypocritical women-acting pure while being no better than a whore behind closed doors!”

Slap!

Onyx was struck hard across the face.

The force of the slap left his head reeling.

Disbelief was etched across his features as he slowly turned to face Susan.
