Chapter 455

Thomas' subtle probing extinguished the flicker of hope Heather had for any genuine family connection.

But hearing Tyrone's voice filled her heart with warmth. Suddenly, the cold seemed to disappear.

Tyrone's primary goal had always been making money, yet now he was telling her she mattered more than that.

The thought that someone found her important was a wonderful feeling.

"Why did you call?" Tyrone's deep voice came through the phone.

Heather pressed her lips together before answering him. "Tyrone, I forgot to mention something earlier. I overheard Greg talking with someone from a big financial group. Maybe you should look into it."

"Alright."

"Don't let him win."

"You called just to tell me that?" Tyrone chuckled softly, unconcerned. "Don't worry. I won't go bankrupt, and I'll make sure you're never short on money."

Heather bit her lip. "Tyrone, I miss you."

There was a brief silence before his quiet response. "Alright."

Heather wasn't sure what else to say.
