Chapter 506



When no one was around, Clayton’s frustration manifested as he began smashing nearby objects. He concluded that Mr. Jack was responsible.

Meanwhile, Jake had just arrived in Burmoos with Kallie and Sophie. Jake carried Sophie off the plane and suggested they grab a meal first.

However, Kallie wasn’t in the mood to dine. Tyrone had been located, and for reasons unknown, he seemed to cling to Jenny. He followed Jenny everywhere.

While Kallie could tolerate Tyrone acting like this, his demeanor toward Jenny made her suspect that Jenny might have drugged him or manipulated him mentally somehow. Concerned, Kallie took Tyrone to the hospital again for a thorough check-up. The doctors confirmed that Tyrone was only suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, with no other underlying issues.

In the past few days, Jenny had been under the control of Jake’s men, leading to Tyrone’s irritability. He lost his appetite and interest in activities. Left with no other option, Kallie instructed her crew to fetch Jenny and Tyrone back to Burmoos ahead of schedule. Tyrone had arrived earlier and was likely at the villa by now.

Kallie gazed into Sophie’s bright eyes and gently pinched her cheek, smiling. “Would you like to join Jake for dinner tonight?”

With a smile and a nod, Sophie clung to Jake’s neck, murmuring, “Okay.”

Jake, initially taken aback, soon felt uneasy. “I’m worried it’s not a good idea. Perhaps it’s best we dine together another time.”

Determined, Jake responded, “She is my world. Her safety is my utmost priority.” Sophie seemed so tiny and delicate in Jake’s embrace. Now nearly four, she was growing more beautiful by the day.

Sophie had seamlessly blended Jake’s and Kallie’s features, exuding grace and natural beauty. Jake always felt a sense of fulfillment whenever he held Sophie. She was his bloodline, the child he would guard with his life.

Jake didn’t insist on Kallie joining them for dinner. After asking Sophie to bid Kallie farewell, he departed with her. Kallie rushed back to the villa, only to find a heated argument underway. She felt slight relief that Sophie hadn’t accompanied her.

Tears cascaded down Trent’s cheeks as he knelt before Tyrone. Leaning on Jenny for support, Tyrone prepared to depart. The living room was a scene of disarray, with numerous items shattered.

Jenny, instead of showing frustration, arrogantly lifted her chin and quickly urged Tyrone to leave, her eyes radiating smugness. She appeared to view Tyrone as merely a pawn in her schemes.

Kallie, with a somber expression, assisted Trent to his feet. She surveyed the scene and asked with furrowed brows, “What’s happening here?”

Trent, drying his tears, explained, “Your grandfather wants to leave. He accuses us all of being cruel and says we would torment him and his granddaughter. This confusion is unlike him. In the past, even when ill, he always remembered you. Yet now, when we speak of you, he shows no recognition.”

These words saddened Kallie. She sensed something amiss but couldn’t pinpoint the cause.
