Shattered Rose He Held On Tight novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71 Not Enough

Finished

Donovan had only gone there to fix the mess. But what he found in the mountains shocked him—a kid, battered and bloody, clothes soaked in sweat, holding a wolf pup and drinking its blood just to survive.

That desperate, fight–or–die look in the kid’s eyes stuck with him.

He burst out laughing. Sterling’s toughness and ruthlessness were exactly in line with the Romero family’s style.

When Donovan returned, he punished Quinton and Winnie for being useless. Then, against everyone’s objections, he took Sterling in to raise him himself.

That was when he realized just how smart Sterling was.

Sterling didn’t let Donovan down. Once in a better environment, he went all out, soaking up everything, growing quickly, and learning fast.

The speed at which he advanced himself was insane.

By the time he reached adulthood, Sterling had already started building his own power base.

As expected, he became the top heir of his generation, even surpassing the older ones.

But when Donovan first began mentoring Sterling, he never imagined Sterling would one day turn and bite back.

The whole Romero family was under Sterling’s control. What more could he want?

Now Donovan understood. A family alone wasn’t enough for Sterling.

He might have held a grudge against them because of his mother, but every rich family had its dark secrets.

Over the years, Sterling had remained cold toward the family. Aside from breaking his father’s legs four years ago, he hadn’t made any major moves. Donovan thought he’d let it

But when Henry ended up in a vegetative state and Tyson’s manhood was ruined, Donovan was struck with horror. He knew Sterling’s revenge had only just begun.

Sterling wanted the entire Romero family thrown into chaos, making them suffer.

When Claudia appeared, Donovan grew even more concerned.

The elders had tried to tame this wild wolf through marriage. Sterling flipped the script, using

marriage as a weapon to undermine them.

Claudia was perfect for it–bold, fearless, and reckless.

She wasn’t fully destructive yet, but she was enough to stir panic, make everyone nervous, and lose sleep.

Just like they had crushed Isabella bit by bit back then. Sterling was going to make them pay slowly.

He wanted them anxious, always wondering when the next hit would come.

Donovan sank into his chair, exhausted.

He never cared if his kids and grandkids schemed. There could only be one head of the family, the one strong enough to lead the Romeros to the top.

Some might get hurt along the way, and he didn’t mind.

Sterling’s rise had thrilled Donovan.

But now, Sterling was like a blade–unstoppable, cutting even his own family.
