Joe contacted Lucas, asking to meet with the man again after their encounter a few hours ago in the same park where Sarah and Jesslyn used to meet. "Yes. I'm going to Seattle Group right now. Do you have some free time? Because there is an important matter I want to discuss with you regarding my request regarding the transfer of SkyLand Company's ownership," Joe asked. "Alright, then I'll wait for you to come here," Joe said again after a long silence. He had just finished listening to Lucas's counter-argument on the other side of the phone. Joe switched off the phone and placed it on the table before Jesslyn, who had been watching her husband's every move. "How was it? Are you going to Seattle Group right now?" Jesslyn asked the question that had been rattling around in her brain. "Lucas said he'll come here because he happens to be on his way to SkyLand Company. So, let's wait for his arrival," Joe replied.Jesslyn nodded. Without waiting long, she moved her seat to the sofa in
Joe stared at Lucas with eyes full of confusion, but then those eyes turned to horror as he realized something from the sentence the man he was talking to had just uttered. "Did Grandpa come to see you, Lucas?" guessed Joe with his heart racing. Lucas nodded. "Just as you predicted. That man asked me to kick you out of SkyLand Company. He even lured me with so much money that he would invest in the Seattle Group as long as I helped him to make you poor," he explained. Joe wasn't too surprised when he heard that, as he had predicted the purpose of Kevin's long absence. "I had expected him to do something like this. But I'm amazed because it turns out that he came to you himself and dared to offer cooperation to bring me down openly," Joe said. Lucas cast a pitying look at the other man. He didn't think that in this world, there was someone who had to go against his own family to maintain the success he had worked so hard to achieve."Therefore, I prefer to leave SkyLand Company to
"How's the business going now, Dad? Is everything running smoothly?" asked Jesslyn while paying attention to every inch of her father's selling place. "Not bad, at least the profit I get can fulfill my needs." Ben also looked at his place of business with a joyful gaze. "The customers started to shop here regularly after 2 weeks since the first time this business was established. So, for the early days of opening the business yesterday, I didn't get much profit. But now it's not bad, because the buyers are also starting to become regular buyers and of course that brings its own benefits for me," He continued to explain. Hearing about the progress of the business that her father is running, Jesslyn was naturally very happy, especially when she saw the changes in her father's body, which started to get fatter from the last time she saw him a few weeks ago. "Thank goodness. Hopefully this business will be more successful and Dad can buy whatever you wants later without having to bothe
Zack and Rosetta began to put on a charade. They were being nice to Jesslyn to win her sympathy and allow her to stay in their old home again. "Jesslyn, please forgive us for being mean to you. Mommy and Zack really feel bad for you and your dad." Jesslyn looked at those who suddenly came to her house with a probing look. "Yes, I forgive you guys. But you have to leave here right now as a condition." "Jesslyn, thank you for forgiving us. We know we did a lot wrong to you. But, we can't just leave from here. Please let us stay here again." Zack pleaded with Jesslyn. They hoped that she would feel compassion and accept them back."Yes, dear. Aren't you sorry to see us stranded on the streets." Rosetta also pleaded with Jesslyn. She even lied by saying that she was stranded, even though without her knowing, Jesslyn already knew that her mother was living in Lucas' house with Noona. She did all this because she couldn't stand living at Lucas' place and having to do all the hous
Zack and Rosetta returned to Lucas' house. There was already Noona who looked angry and immediately scolded the two. She threatened to kick them out of Lucas' house for daring to leave without permission. Noona began to pressure the two, she even yelled at Zack which made the man lose control because his emotions after being kicked out by Ben earlier had not disappeared completely. "Where have you guys been?! I've been looking for you!" Noona was angry at those who had just appeared in front of them. Zack and Rosetta looked at Noona flatly. Instead of a warm welcome home, they were yelled at. "Tell me where you two are from! I told you to tell me when you leave! Are you dumb, huh?!" Noona snapped back at the two of them. "Can you talk later? I just got home and feel very tired now," Zack said to his wife. "Right. You don't know we just got home and tired? By the way, Wherever we're going is none of your business." This time Rosetta spoke up. Noona rounded her eyes. How
Jesslyn excused herself from Ben's house to go back to her apartment. Actually, she wanted to spend more time with her Daddy but she needed to rest before going back to her normal activities. "I'm going back to my apartment today, Dad. Daddy doesn't mind being alone at home. The servants will be back this afternoon." The servants would return this afternoon so her Daddy would not feel lonely after she returned home. "Actually, Daddy still wants you here but Daddy also knows that Daddy's daughter is very busy," her Daddy said while stroking her head. "Hehe... I'm sorry, Dad, that Jesslyn is so busy." Jesslyn felt guilty about leaving her Daddy. "It doesn't matter. Daddy understands that you're busy for the good of all of us. Daddy is ashamed that he hasn't been able to make you happy." "Who says Daddy hasn't made me happy. I'm already very happy with Daddy. So, Daddy doesn't need to feel that way." Jesslyn walked into her Daddy's arms. Her Daddy hugged his daughter tightly.
Sarah was allowed to stay at the apartment after the woman told her about what happened to her. "Jes, it's okay for me to stay here today. I'm scared to go home," said Sarah who had calmed down a bit. "I already said that earlier. It's okay if you want to stay over but what's wrong, Sar? Have you been raped? Have you been robbed or something? You're just saying you're scared." Jesslyn demanded questions from Sarah. She had yet to tell her what was wrong. Sarah began to tell her about what really happened. Sarah told her that she had just been robbed which caused her to lose her car and that made Sarah not dare to go home for fear of being scolded by her father. "So here's the thing, Jes. I wasn't raped or anything bad. But..." Sarah trailed off. "What? How, Sar?" asked Jesslyn again. "I lost my car, Jes. Hua...." Sarah cried again after saying a sentence to Jesslyn. "Oh my .... how come?" asked Jesslyn again while stroking her best friend's shoulder. "Just no
Sarah was surprised to see Jesslyn already behind her. Two stuttered and began to make excuses so as not to be suspected. Jesslyn, who knew from the start what Sarah's nature was like, just smiled and pretended not to know anything. "Sarah, what are you doing here?" asked Jesslyn who appeared behind Sarah. "Jes... Jesslyn...." Sarah stuttered to answer the question. Jesslyn just smiled, "You must have come from the bathroom because it was dark. I like to forget to turn off all the lights when I go to bed at night, Sar. I'm sorry for making you mistaken." Jesslyn pretended not to know what the woman was going to do. "Ah yes, Jes. I thought this was my room. I'll go back to my room, yes." "Yes, your room is over there. Watch out, you won't realize you slept in the bathroom," Jesslyn said with a laugh. Sarah nodded. Then, Sarah returned to her room, she was confused why Jesslyn could catch her when before that she had put sleeping pills in Jesslyn's drink. Sarah w
