Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 694

“I’d better not,” Susan said lightly.

“Why? This is a great opportunity for you to hone your skills.”

Erick did not seem to understand Susan’s refusal.

Susan struggled to explain to her grandfather that Esteban would never allow her to take over the company.

Working at the company would mean being used.

It was better for her to work elsewhere.

“I just don’t Like the company’s environment, and I don’t like making perfumes, either.

I want to follow my own passions,” Susan said gently.

“You don’t like making perfumes?” Erick was even more surprised.

“Susan, you used to adore perfumes, even mixing them into different skincare products.

I was really fond of the skincare line you created.

How can you say you don’t like making perfumes now?”

“That was just a childhood interest, Grandpa.

It’s not something I enjoy anymore,” Susan replied, feeling a weight on her heart.

The main reason was she didn’t want to return to that family.

It never felt Like home.

Erick noticed the sadness in Susan’s tone and sighed.

“Alright, I support whatever path you choose.

If you don’t like it, then don’t force yourself.”

Susan nodded.

“Thank you, Grandpa.

Please have some rest.”

Meanwhile, Madisyn had just returned to her room when she received a call from Andrew.

“Sweetheart.” Andrew sounded somewhat frustrated.

“I didn’t know Susan would be there, too.”

“It’s okay.

I should have told you,” Madisyn responded.

“But from what I observed, Susan doesn’t seem to dislike Dane.

I’m curious about what caused their estrangement.”

“Maybe it’s just some misunderstanding.

Didn’t Susan mention anything?”

“No, she didn’t.”

Andrew paused briefly before saying, “Susan is from the Riggs family in Ansport, right? I only found that out recently.”

“You did?”

“Yes,” Andrew replied quietly.

“But many people in Ansport don’t know about Susan because she’s barely noticeable in the Riggs family.

Even some household staff might not realize she’s their boss’s daughter— they probably only recognize his other daughter, Jada.”

Madisyn hadn’t dug into Susan’s circumstances but had sensed that life at home must be hard for her.

She hadn’t realized just how severe it really was.

“Why is that?” Madisyn inquired.

“Well, Susan’s current mother is her stepmother.

Her real mother died when she was young, and after the stepmother came into the picture, Susan’s home life got tougher.

This stepmother is quite cunning-she quickly made a name for herself in social circles and began spreading rumors that Susan was rebellious and disliked studying..

As a result, even those who are aware of Susan have a negative view of her, and they feel sorry for Mara for having to deal with such a troublesome stepdaughter.”

What a manipulative woman!
