The Ex and Her Riches

Kieran found a closed shop with shelter by the roadside and took shelter from the heavy rain.

He roughly estimated the distance to the Mossey residence and the distance back to the hotel and realized that the time required for both routes was almost the same.

He decided to go all out and dashed into the rain.

After running for an hour in the rain, he still hadn’t reached the Mossey residence.

He had checked the navigation twice before heading out, but he ended up relying on his memory because the sky was too dark. In the end, he got lost, not knowing which street he had taken the wrong turn on.

It was three or four in the morning, and there wasn’t a single car or person on the street.

He could neither go back to the hotel nor find the Mossey residence.

He stood alone in the rain helplessly.

Ironically, he was actually miserable now because his plan to play the victim didn’t turn out as he wanted.

Salinsburgh was as peaceful as any other day the next morning. The sun was shining brightly in the sky.

After finishing breakfast, Jennifer called Craig nervously.

The moment the call connected, Craig spoke before she could say anything. “Have you thought it through?”

Jennifer took a deep breath. “Yes. I’m willing to move back to the Newton residence.”

Craig chuckled lightly, seemingly in a good mood. “It’s good that you’ve come to your senses. Send me your address. I’ll have the driver come pick you up.”

“It’s okay. No need to trouble yourself. Treyton will drive me there.”

Craig’s voice turned cold on the other end of the phone. “You are a member of the Newton family. It’s only natural to take the Newton family’s car, not Treyton’s.”

Jennifer was puzzled. “What’s wrong with that? Treyton is my boyfriend now. It’s only right for him to drive me there.”

Craig fell silent for a moment. “Listen to me, Jennifer. Pack up and wait obediently. I’ll send the driver to pick you up.”

Jennifer didn’t respond.
