Ditched My Toxic Duo for a Billionaire Upgrade novel Chapter 101

Chapter 9

The millennium was approaching.

Dad said he really missed me.

My husband was swamped with business, so he carved out a piece of his domestic operations for me and wanted me to teach our daughter how to take over eventually.

I felt a bit helpless about it.
