Chapter 184

In the wee hours of the second day, before the break of dawn, a car sped into Reynolds Manor.

Suddenly, there was a racket upstairs and downstairs.

Leandro Leandro Get your ass out here!

Billy Reynolds was banging on Leandro’s bedroom door, but there was no response.

In Conway’s room, Seraphina, who had been up all night, perked up at the noise and realized that Conway had also been startled awake.

Grandpa, stay put. Let me check what’s going on. Seraphina soothed Conway, then got up.

She had barely reached the door when it was pushed open from outside, and Billy strode in

Billy didn’t look too pleased to see Seraphina behind the door. He walked over to Conway’s bed and said, Dad, you need to do something about Leandro! Ferne is your granddaughter too, what’s wrong with her being a little stubborn? She doesn’t belong to such places, does she?

Conway, just waking up and feeling a slight headache, didn’t speak until Seraphina had adjusted his pillow. Then she turned to Billy and said. Calm down, spill it out slowly.

Billy glanced at her before continuing, Dad, Ferne is your blood granddaughter. You can’t neglect her for an outsider, can you?

What are you talking about?Conway asked, frowning.

Leandro wants to ship Ferne off to the Bahamas Billy was frantic and furious. Does he call the shots in the Reynolds family? Does he do as he pleases?

Leandro’s voice came from the doorway before he even finished his sentence. Who do you think should call the shots, then?

Leandro, fresh out of the shower with wet hair and a black bathrobe, looked more imposing than ever.

Ferne is your cousin!Billy was enraged. Even if she made a mistake, she did it for your sake! How can you be so autocratic?

Leandro sneered at Billy’s accusation Right, I am autocratic. If you think it’s not right for Ferne to go to the Bahamas alone, you can go with her.

Billy was left speechless by Leandro’s retort. He turned to Conway, saying, Dad, look at him! Look at the nonsense he’s spouting!

Conway, with his eyes closed and his brow furrowed, slowly opened his eyes after hearing this. He glanced at Billy, then at Seraphina.

Seraphina, sitting on the couch and twiddling her thumbs, acted as if the Reynolds family’s problems were not her business.

Seeing this, Conway slowly said, Leandro, Ferne did wrong, but she meant no harm. Sending her to the Bahamas is too harsh.
