Chloe fell silent, reflecting upon the support Icarus had provided her thus far.

She made up her mind to inform him about Ava’s deceitful actions.

“My nephew’s a fool!” Icarus exclaimed, his anger evident.

Chloe shrugged and replied, “Feel free to tell him that yourself. If I were to tell him, he might see it as me defaming Ava.”

“It doesn’t matter to me whether he regrets it or not,” Chloe replied nonchalantly.

Icarus observed her indifferent demeanor with great joy. Despite the circumstances, she no longer held any feelings for Jake. However, he believed that confessing at this point would be considered too hasty.
