Jonathan's POV
Rollings House
I was in my study when Veronica came inside looking worried.
"What's the matter Nicky?"
"Some of the old house representatives have come,"
"They're demanding you meet them."
"Demanding?" I said, confused.
"Why would I not meet them?"
"Come on, let's go."
As I walked inside the living room, everyone got up to greet me.
"Please take your seats," I said as I tried to see who came.
"Mr Rollings," one of them said.
"Before…we didn't bother about the ancestral assets as they disappeared with the River family."
"We did get compensation from the council,"
"But now that we know you're the River heir, and have authority to open the vault,"
He trailed off.
"Mr Rollings," he continued.
"You yourself know how you felt when the Blue Heart wasn't with you,"
"And how at ease you are now, knowing it's with you,"
I clenched my fists as I realized they're trying to play the guilt trip with me.
