The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 742

Soft, heated breaths fill the air, raising the temperature in the room with thick, undeniable tension. They kiss their way from the entryway all the way to the living room sofa.

"Can you just take a break for a second?" Tara pushes him back slightly, her cheeks flushed with a stunning, radiant heat.

This isn't the first time. Ever since this stubborn man moved in, they end up in this exact scenario every single day—sometimes multiple times a day.

Danny looks at her with an exaggerated sense of grievance. "I'm just kissing you. We haven't even taken it to the next level yet, and you're already saying it's too much?"

"My lips are going to swell. Isn't that enough?" She pushes against his chest again.

"It's never enough. I can never get enough of you," he murmurs, leaning in to claim her mouth once more.

He always considered himself a man of immense self-control and discipline. But all of that crumbles to ash whenever Tara is near. He wants to hold her in his arms for the rest of his life and never let her go.

After what feels like an eternity, Danny finally pulls back, thoroughly satisfied. With a bright smile, he heads straight to the open kitchen to cook.

Tara, who has never known her way around a kitchen, watches the powerful man move gracefully between the counters. Unable to resist, she pulls out her phone and snaps a picture.

But Tara knows her father would never willingly give his life's work to that woman. Even if he had feelings for her, he wouldn't do it—let alone to an enemy he felt nothing for. Unfortunately, Jovani's forged signature is a perfect replica, and they even used Charles's fingerprint. The execution is airtight. Taking them down and exposing their crimes will require time and a meticulously crafted plan.

"They definitely have a next move," Danny says softly, soothing her. "Don't worry too much. We just need to stay prepared."

"They're probably aiming to hijack the Dennis Group and take the head seat on the board."

Tara has already predicted their strategy, and she refuses to let them succeed. She didn't want to hand the company over to her three useless brothers because she couldn't bear to see her grandfather Cian's legacy ruined. Now that outsiders are trying to steal it, she is ready to fight to the bitter end.
