Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 614

Soren froze.

Sandy rolled her eyes and yanked her hand away. “You’re all so worried I can’t have kids, but honestly, I wouldn’t have them for your family even if I could.”

She had made up her mind. For her own sake, she was done with the idea of having children.

“Sandy, I really believe that if two people truly love each other, it doesn’t matter if they have kids or not. We’re young. The old folks just have outdated ideas. I promise, if you don’t want children, I’ll never push you.”

Sandy took in Soren’s pleading face, so handsome and earnest, and she suddenly realized how powerful money could be. It could bring even the proudest person to their knees.

Back when she first returned to the Smith family, she’d done everything she could to win Soren’s heart, desperate to be good enough, always trying to please him. Now, was Soren finally getting a taste of what that felt like?

She gave him a cold look. “When I needed you, you were never there. So from now on, don’t bother showing up for me, either.”

She stood up and walked away without looking back.

Soren watched her leave, his frustration boiling over as he slammed his hand on the table.

When Sandy was gone, Vivia finally walked over. “Soren, did she tell you how Smith Corporation managed to bounce back this time?”

Soren glared at his parents. “Mom, this is all on you. If you hadn’t kept insisting Sandy couldn’t have children, I wouldn’t have pushed her away. Now she can’t stand the sight of me.”

Vivia looked hurt. “Soren, with her health, she probably can’t have kids anyway. And what’s so great about her? She’s just some girl from the countryside. Even in designer clothes, she still seems so tacky.”

“But now she owns half of Smith Corporation. Whoever marries her gets that half.”

Vivia stared at him, shocked. “What?”
