The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Chapter 938

Saskia knew how hard Holden worked and how capable he was.

The Lynette family seemed fond of him on the surface, but the moment Brittany returned, her father was ready to leave everything to her, turning Holden into the elephant in the room.

These days, the whole town was mocking Holden.

A sparrow may rise high, but it’s still a sparrow! Did he really think that being adopted made him one of the Lynettes? He was nothing but a stepping stone!

Such rumors were incessant.

Every time Saskia thought about the vast family fortune going to Brittany, she seethed. with envy, lamenting her own fate for not being born a Lynette daughter!

Over the years, he’d made a tidy sum, investing in projects on the down-low and filling his coffers to the brim. Even if he couldn’t match the Lynette wealth, his future was secure.
