The Senator’s Daughter Is Now the CEO They Need Chapter 34

The Senator’s Daughter Is Now the CEO They Need Chapter 34

I made one last trip to Washington.

Julian had been sent to a private rehabilitation center in the Virginia suburbs.

When I went to see him, he was alone in his room. The curtains were drawn, and the air smelled of disinfectant.

He froze when he saw me. Then he managed a pained smile.

“I didn’t think you’d come.”

“I didn’t want to,” I said bluntly.

After Julian’s story broke, gossip columnists had started camping outside my apartment.

To them, this kind of family drama was a gold mine.

If I didn’t show up, they would only write something uglier.

My company was just getting off the ground. I didn’t want that kind of press.

I placed a bouquet of plastic flowers I’d bought at a convenience store on his bedside table.

The colors were garish and fake. Perfect for the occasion.

“I’ve seen you,” I said. “I’m leaving.”

“Wait.”

Julian stopped me, his voice hoarse.

He propped himself up, staring at me for a long time before he finally said, “I’m sorry.”

I glanced at him and smiled.

“I don’t accept.”

Honestly, in the entire Davis family, my father and Catherine simply felt nothing for me.
