Chapter 340



At a loss for words to form a retort, Jennifer simply stared at Ewing, her eyes containing mixed feelings before she burst into tears.

Kallie noticed a flicker of regret in Jennifer’s gaze, but she felt no sympathy.

Knowing those malicious ones wouldn’t truly regret their misdeeds before facing the music, Kallie stood her ground on handling the situation, sticking to her principles, her resolve unwavering. “Hamlin, my demand might be a bit too much,” she said.

Hamlin, worn out by the situation and disappointed by his wife’s wrongdoings, said, “Just name your demands as what you see proper to deal with this mess. I won’t dodge my responsibility of unwittingly letting her scheme against you, your mother, and even your daughter. I’ll divorce her once this is taken care of. I desire nothing more to do with her.”

As her evil deeds were exposed with undeniable evidence, Jennifer ceased justifying her actions. Hamlin’s words only intensified her desperation, and she began to shout wildly. She cursed everyone, including Siena, who had been dead for years.

Seeing her continued defiance, Kallie’s gaze turned icy, her lips curling into a chilling smirk. “If that’s the case, let her endure what Sophie endured. She’s loud. Let’s silence her for good.”

ɢαlиσvєℓѕ.cоm has the newest content Ewing waved his hand and commanded, “Take her away. Follow Kallie’s orders.”

In a sudden burst of strength, Jennifer wrenched free from her restraints. She dashed over to Ewing and clutched at his clothes.

“Ewing, I’m sorry! I was wrong. Please, don’t do this to me! I’ll change. From now on, I’ll treat you with tenderness as a mother should. I’m your mother, for crying out loud! Don’t you dare treat me with such cruelty. Please! I won’t cause any more trouble. You’ve always wanted to travel with me, right? I promise you that now.”

Without turning around, Ewing just smiled bitterly. “Mom, this is the last time I’ll call you that. Yes, I did want to travel with you, but that was my childhood wish. I thought you’d forgotten. It turns out you remembered it all along, but you just never wanted to fulfill it.”

Jennifer was choked up, wanting to explain. However, Ewing beat her to it. “You’ve never loved me, and I know it painfully well. Drop the act, could you? Hone your acting skills if you try to convince others. You want me to live a miserable life from this moment forward, but my leniency stops there. Your condition is no longer my concern.”

Saying this, Ewing mercilessly pried Jennifer’s fingers off his clothing. Lost in a daze, Jennifer was eventually escorted out by the bodyguards.

Kallie had assumed Ewing would need time to process everything. Surprisingly, he regained his composure quickly and turned to her, his expression laced with concern. “Kallie, be honest with me. Did you offend someone you shouldn’t have?”

The image of the mysterious man, whose face was adorned with a mask, flickered through Kallie’s mind. She hesitated, shaking her head before nodding in affirmation.

“It couldn’t be counted as offending. I was framed, and the product meant for a client was tampered with. Though the client was displeased with the product, there’s a way to fix this issue. I just need to complete a task for him.”

Ewing’s gaze hardened upon hearing this. “What kind of task? You should drop out of it. I’ll have someone else handle it. From now on, keep your distance from this client. If he tries to cause you trouble, he’ll have me to deal with first.”

Kallie was somewhat amused by his suggestion. “Ewing, this is the first time I’ve seen you genuinely wary of someone. Is he really that powerful?”

Rubbing his temples, Ewing let out a slight sigh. “Anyway, that guy’s not someone to mess with. Just err on the side of caution.”
