The Lost Heiress: Never Forgiven (Sierra Xander) novel Chapter 523

Chase and Jonathan stayed in the study for a long time, talking. While they were inside, Susie had already finished making the pickled radish.

It looked bright and appetizing, and Sierra couldn’t help trying a bite. Her eyes lit up.

For days now, she’d been nibbling at food without much interest. Some things she couldn’t even keep down.

But this pickled radish hit the spot. It was tangy, spicy, crisp—full of flavor. It made her want more.

As she reached for another piece, Susie quickly stopped her. “It’s too spicy to eat on its own like that. You should eat it with some rice and a thick stew—something hearty. That was my favorite way to eat it when I was pregnant. Want to try it that way?”

Sierra was already salivating. She nodded eagerly.

The butler was the happiest of all. He’d been watching Sierra struggle with her appetite for days, more anxious than anyone else.

Just then, Jonathan and Chase finished their conversation and came out.

Jonathan was heading to the kitchen.

Lately, Sierra could only stomach food if he cooked it himself.

But as soon as he stepped inside, he found her eating heartily while Susie stood by with a gentle smile on her face.

Jonathan paused.

When Susie noticed him, she grew a little flustered. “Sierra said she hadn’t been feeling well, so I made some pickled radish.”

“Thank you.”

Jonathan had been worried about Sierra’s appetite, and now that he saw her eating with gusto, even his mood lifted.

Susie was visibly moved by his thanks and waved it off quickly. “It’s nothing, really.”

Sierra jumped in. “It’s getting late. Why don’t you stay and have dinner with us?”

Chase and Susie were more than willing.

It had been years—aside from family dinners on New Year’s Eve when the old man was around, they’d never actually sat down as a family.

Still, they looked to Jonathan. If he showed even the slightest sign of reluctance, they wouldn’t stay.

Jonathan said calmly, “Have the kitchen make a few more dishes. Invite Jose over too.”

Chase and Susie were overjoyed. Susie immediately went to call Jose, while Jonathan stayed beside Sierra. “You like this?”
