Chapter 221 A Parting at Sea 

Sierra sneered and walked out

She went straight to the restroom and scrubbed the spots where Kason had touched her, washing away every trace of him before she felt satisfied

When she stepped out, she saw Johnathan waiting outside

She knew what he wanted to ask

I’m fine,she said before he could speak

Johnathan still didn’t look happy. He had heard everything 

While he sat across from Mr. Richardson, entertaining empty pleasantries, he had also been listening to Kason’s conversation 

with Sierra 

It 

had taken everything in him not to get up and break that man’s neck

But Sierra wanted to do this her way

She wanted to expose what the Richardson family had been doing

So, for now, he had to endure it

And that feelinghaving to hold backmade him feel suffocated

His expression remained dark until Sierra reached for his hand and gave it a small shake

Only then did his face ease up

They finished their meeting with the Richardsons and left

As soon as they were gone, Mr. Richardson’s expression soured

This Johnathan is not easy to deal with,he said

It wasn’t just the way he spoke, careful and controlled

It was the presence he carriedsubtle, yet oppressive

Something about him made people uneasy.. 

“We won’t make a move until we understand exactly who we’re dealing with,Mr. Richardson warned, eyeing his son 

They had reached a temporary truceMr. Richardson had apologized on Kason’s behalf and offered compensation, while Johnathan agreed to back off

But this was only a pause 

Mr. Richardson had no problem playing weak now if it meant striking harder later 

If Johnathan turned out to be all smoke and mirrors, he would crush him without hesitation

Yeah, yeah Kason said lazily, clearly not taking it seriously 

His father frowned

Kason had always been reckless, but now he seemned outright arrogant 

Did he really think he could touch a man like Johnathan without consequences

better remember what I said. Mr. Richardson warned. And stay away from SierraTM 

Chapter 221 A Parting at Sea 

Kason smirked

That’s not happening. Sierra is mine. And unless something unexpected happens, she’ll be your daughterinlaw.” 

Mr. Richardson’s face twisted

You’re serious?” 

She’s my type. Kason said, selfsatisfied. Don’t worry, Dad. She and I are the same kind of people.” 

He was convinced of it

Sierra’s true natureher ruthlessnesswas something only he had seen

She just hid it well

Mr. Richardson didn’t look convinced

In fact, for the first time in a long while, he felt a hint of unease

His son had never taken a woman seriously before

And for some reason, he had a feeling Kason was about to meet his match

Back in the car, Sierra leaned closer to Johnathan, trying to coax him out of his foul mood

Finished 

I know what I’m doing she reassured him. Your friend gave me all those tools. I can protect myself. And besidesyou’re 

here.” 

Johnathan’s scowl didn’t fade

He didn’t tell her that he had heard every word she said to Kason

Logically, he knew she was just playing the role

But bearing her talk about him like thatlike he was just another man she’d get bored ofmade his blood boil

Johnathan Sierra called his name sweetly. Mr. Johnathan…. 

She still wasn’t good at acting spoiled

But Johnathan was starting to think she didn’t need to be

Because every time she said his name like that, it worked

He sighed reaching out to rutile her hair

Don’t push yourself too far,he said. If things get out of control, I’ll handle it 

I know, Sierra agreed easily

Tin serious, Sterra” 

His tone softened, but his eyes were firm

You don’t have to do everything alone anymore” 

Por a moment. Sierra didn’t speak 

Her chest felt tight, full

No one had ever said that to her before 

No one had ever told her she didn’t have to bear everything by herself

Chapter 221 A Parting at Sea 

Okay,” she whispered

The festival came quickly

That night, Sierra stayed in the room her grandmother used to sleep in

When she stepped out the next morning, she was holding the urn

Finished 

Johnathan had originally suggested scattering her grandmother’s ashes at his private island. Or, at the very least, in the waters 

near it

But Sierra had refused

The ocean moves,” she said, It doesn’t matter where. She’ll go wherever she wants.” 

Johnathan had thought she’d be emotional today

But as he watched her, he realized- 

she was steady. Composed. Just as she always had been
