After watching the video over and over again as a form of entertainment. Sophia got bored of seeing Ethan's face. At some point, she noticed that the expression on his face wasn't really genuine... Or at least that's what it felt like to her. There was still some defiance she could notice in his golden eyes. Waving it off as some form of misconception, Sophia took her phone and finally called her father, Oliver Walton. "My beautiful flower..." Oliver said the moment he picked up the call. He hadn't even wasted any time in picking up her call. "That was the best breakup present ever, dad. Thank you!" Sophia said to her father. "I'm glad you like it." Oliver nodded and grinned with pride. He felt filled him with fulfillment that he had been able to please his daughter and make her happy. "I don't like it. I love it! I could watch it hundreds of times without getting bored. It feels good to see that bastard grovel and beg me. I just wish he could do it in my presence." Sophia said

"Tell me what happened." Oliver demanded. He was speaking to the thug that he had hired to kidnap Sylvie over the phone. "We dropped the girl at the park and called Ethan to pick her up.He came and carried her away without even a car to pick her up!" The thug said with a sneer. "Hmm, he has probably taken her back to the orphanage." Oliver mumbled. Then he ended the call. Seeing as Ethan had retrieved his younger sister safely, Mr Oliver Walton was already thinking of something else that he could do to appease his daughter and make her cozy up to him. Naturally, his target was Ethan. He picked up his phone and dialed her number. "What is it, Dad?" Sophia asked with a tone of annoyance. Oliver felt his expectations crumble. Where was the daughter that was telling him that she loved him just a few days ago?"My beautiful flower, that's no way to address your loving father..." Oliver grumbled. "I don't have time for this dad." Sophia cut him short. "Philip is sick." "Really? What

Oliver sat staring blankly ahead, his phone slipping from his limp fingers. The past few days had utterly drained him, leaving the once imposing man a hollow shell. Between the constant calls from his increasingly impatient daughter and the lawyers who could offer no solutions, Oliver felt like he was losing his mind. How had everything gone so wrong so quickly? None of it made sense to Oliver. In just one week his family's reputation had begun crumbling in the face of the public. First the drug charges against his son Tommy and now he had also failed to break him out of jail. Oliver suspected that someone was behind everything that was happening. It could have been the same person who planted drugs in Tommy's luggage to implicate him. Oliver reached his current status in the city by his hard work and dedication. He had also invested no little effort in making sure that he had a good grasp of things going on in the city, yet he wasn't able to do anything in face of such a situatio

Two days later. It was time for another court session on Tommy's case. As expected, Oliver, his wife and Sophia arrived in the courtroom. Sophia had a gloomy expression on her face and she looked like she was ready to bite anyone who moved close to her a tiny bit. This was because she had noticed that her father was yet to do anything about Ethan. Just before she came to the courtroom, she had seen another post on the internet about Ethan and him thriving in his new job. This was enough to ruin Sophia's day. At this point, Tommy's case took less precedent in her mind than the downfall of Ethan. "Hey dad!" She called out to Oliver as they took their seats. "Hmm? Sophia what is it?" Oliver asked with a dull voice. He was incomparably tired and exhausted. He had been trying his best to get another lawyer who would have a chance to help get his son out of jail. "Have you done anything about what I told you?" She asked with a frown. Oliver furrowed his brows. "What are you taking abo

Maya was filled with anger. It was clear what was happening; the judge was being careful of and partial to the Waltons. Maya had formerly investigated the case on her own to an extent. She knew that someone was trying to put Tommy in jail from the shadows but she didn't know the person. She had been very happy that someone unknown was trying to help Ethan. However, she couldn't meet with the person as she had no idea who they were. The only way to act on her own was to release the evidence that she had against Sophia and her family. Now that she had done that, the judge was trying to play favourites and save his own head. Maya gritted her teeth as she left the courtroom in frustration. Sophia glared at Maya as she walked out with hatred in her eyes. She was getting more annoyed because someone was trying to help Ethan. Oliver also took deep breaths to calm himself down. He had noticed that the judge was being careful not to offend him so he relaxed a bit.Meanwhile, Khalid saw an
