Chapter 369

“It was my fault, Dad,” Jefferson said at once. “I was the one who hurt her first. Please don’t blame her. Besides, we’ve made up now.”

“So what if you’ve made up?” he raged. “This woman is vicious to have sent you to prison. You are going to meet your end by her hand!”

Jefferson had the urge to retort, “Should I be greedy like you and get rid of their lackeys?”
