Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Darcie closed her eyes and did not move. She simply asked, “Where are we going?”

Alijah replied, “Anywhere. Wenham’s biological daughter has been recognized, so it’s only a matter of time before they investigate what happened back then. We need to leave the country and find a place to start over. The money we have now is enough for Jaylene to live comfortably for the rest of her life. We don’t need to live on the edge anymore.”

Darcie withdrew her hand, “After all these years, you’re still so naive. You have money, but what about status and connections? Are we going through all this trouble just for a small amount of money? The money will eventually run out. When that happens, what will Jaylene have to rely on?”

Alijah took her hand again, “We can set up a trust for her and limit her spending. Even if we’re gone, we won’t have to worry about her future.”

Darcie pulled her hand away and said coldly, “I will never use a trust to turn my daughter into a dependent. I’ve spent years building Caline to what it is today. Why should I leave it all behind now? Why should I hand over my hard work to Stella?”

Alijah’s eyes were full of disappointment. “Jaylene only wants to marry into the Kane family. Her heart isn’t in her work at all. You’re unwilling to let go of Caline, but is it for Jaylene or for yourself?”
