Chapter 1959: Chapter 1962

Maggie’s eyes lit up, suddenly feeling invigorated.

She realized Rosalynn was right.

For Sanford’s sake, she needed to discuss things with him.

Meanwhile, outside, Sanford’s phone rang.

It was his father.

“Dad, what’s up?” he quickly answered.

“Sanford, where are you now?”

“I’m in Skrix.

”

There was a brief pause before Britton mentioned, “I heard from your mom that Maggie is back, right?”

Sanford’s eyes narrowed.

It was clear that Millie had informed his mother about Maggie’s return, and she had passed the news to his father.

This call was definitely his father’s way to prevent him from getting back together with Maggie.

“Sanford, we’re all adults here, and there’s a right way to handle things.

I didn’t object when you brought Maggie home before, but then you two broke up.

”

After a brief pause, his father went on, “Whatever the reason for your split, it seems your time together has come to an end.

Now that you’re engaged to Millie, you can’t afford to be fickle and risk your engagement.

”

Britton’s voice was firm.

Sanford thought for a moment before responding, “Dad, as you said, I’m an adult.

I’ll take responsibility for my actions.

Also, please tell Mom that if something like Maggie’s brother’s situation happens again, she shouldn’t expect me to forgive and forget!”

Sanford finished talking and disconnected abruptly.

Britton’s eyes remained fixed on his phone, a crease of concern marking his forehead.

His son had evolved into an independent man, fully capable of charting his own path.

Britton’s attempts at offering fatherly advice had ironically ended with him on the receiving end of a lecture.

He knew it wasn’t really his son’s fault.

The blame lay with his wife, whose past actions had been a bit too extreme.

“Britton, what did Sanford say?” Janiya approached with a mix of urgency and curiosity.

Britton slipped his phone into his pocket and shared the conversation, replicating Sanford’s tone and words.

Janiya felt a familiar tension rise, her temples pulsing slightly.

“He’s actually threatening me?”

Britton met her gaze directly, his voice firm.

“He is.

And now, what’s your next move? Will you persist in your schemes and push that girl out of our country?”
