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?”

As Boniel doted on Jefferson, his younger son, he shook hands reluctantly with Rayna for his sake.

“I am Calbert’s father, Boniel Terblanc.”

Then, Boniel beckoned Jefferson, and the pair entered the dining room. “Tell me,” the latter said with an air of paternal love, “how is the business expansion in Aploth going?”
