The Divorce That Brought Us Back novel Chapter 249

Seraphina didn't possess Cassidy's sheer ambition.

In fact, she was somewhat of a hopeless romantic.

Spoiled from a young age, she was willful, selfish, and domineering. She loved the feeling of being worshipped, loved having every man in the world orbit around her, and would resort to any means necessary to snatch whatever she desired.

Even her academic pursuits and her role as Vice President were entirely motivated by her obsession with a man.

Her ultimate goal was a husband, yet her family had misinterpreted her drive as an ambition to seize control of the Sinclair Group.

That was the root of the conflict.

Cassidy suddenly wondered if the rumors from their high school days had been engineered by the Sinclairs.

They deliberately fed Seraphina false hope, keeping her trapped as a little woman perpetually chasing after men.

But that logic didn't quite hold up.

Seraphina had no real ambition. She never intended to steal the company; she would have gladly settled into a life of a doting wife and mother while still serving as a powerful asset to the family. There was no need to trick her into studying abroad.

Regardless, Parker's obnoxious comment had strangely given Cassidy a profound wake-up call.

Lately, she had felt completely lost.

After working hard enough to eclipse her brother's achievements, she had started feeling empty. She questioned if she had made the wrong choices, if she had sacrificed her marriage just to prove a point, and what the ultimate purpose of all her striving even was.

Now, she finally understood.

She was a pioneer.

That exact word—pioneer—was what Felix Hart's mother, Penelope, had used to describe Jasmine Smith.

Penelope had asked Jasmine if, as a victim, she could endure the public's insults and mockery.

Could she endure the crude jokes, the malicious assumptions, the rumors painting her as part of a sister duo serving the same man?

Jasmine had proven she could. She hadn't cowered before the gossip. She was a courageous survivor, a pioneer fighting for fairness for women.

Cassidy was exactly the same.
