The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 768

Jovani unleashes a torrent of complaints, dominating the conversation while the man beside her remains silent, his lips pressed in a thin line. She is completely out of patience. She desperately wants to step into the light and spend the rest of her life openly with this man. Wasting over a decade infiltrating the Dennis family has left her bitter and craving validation.

"Alright, I was just venting. I'm not actually blaming you," Gregory finally relents.

"Now that all our bridges with the Dennis family are burned, and Tara has probably figured out that Jade is your biological daughter, when are you planning to bring us back to the Sinclair family?" Jovani asks, her eyes wide with eager anticipation.

Compared to the Dennis family, the Sinclairs hold a much higher, more prestigious status. And Gregory himself—elegant, brilliant, decisive, and wonderfully ruthless—is a man she is hopelessly obsessed with. Back when she had just started dating Charles, she met Gregory and immediately betrayed Charles without a second thought. Thankfully, Charles was a massive mama's boy, so when the old Dennis matriarch opposed their relationship, Jovani smoothly used it as an excuse to break things off and carry on her secret affair with Gregory.

Now that Gregory's wife has been dead for years, the seat of Mrs. Sinclair remains open. Jovani is arrogantly confident that he has stayed a widower all these years purely out of devotion to her. That delusional belief is the very reason she impatiently blew her cover early. She is practically vibrating with excitement to officially become Mrs. Sinclair.

"I'll need some more time. I have to find the right moment to break the news to my mother," Gregory replies smoothly.

Gregory feels zero remorse about his actions. Using live humans as disposable lab rats doesn't bother him in the slightest. If his team succeeds, it will be a globally monumental, transcendent breakthrough. If there are complications and the subjects die? They'll just find fresh bodies to experiment on. The mysterious backer deliberately ordered him to stay close to Jovani so he could closely monitor her physical deterioration. It seems it's time to compile a detailed status report for his boss.

"It's hard to describe. Sometimes I feel terrible, and other times I feel completely fine. It's just... different from before," Jovani admits, a flicker of genuine fear in her eyes, terrified that her body might actually be failing her.
