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?”

However, he swallowed the vehement words. “She’s gentle and kind, which you will see if you get to know her She’s also smart enough to help me with the business.”

Boniel’s scowl remained.

Jefferson held Rayna as a show of support. “It’s her first time in our home, Dad. You could at least be courteous. I told her you’re easygoing and love me the most.”

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

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