There was silence on the other end. Claire subconsciously gripped her phone tightly as anxiety flashed across her eyes. She knew Jason had never
liked her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Sophia was still alive, he barely helped out a little. But at least he was never stingy with money and let her family live happily. But ever since Sophia passed away, he did not treat her family well. Especially when he found out Ada pretended to be his savior and monopolized Sophia’s credit He completely kicked The Taylor family out of his sight.
In the past few years, Claire had begged him many times for him to save Lucas, but he had always rejected her. Despite being Jason’s in–laws, she was no different than a stranger to him.
Hearing the silence from the other end, Claire knew the conversation would soon end in silence. So, she explained, “Sophia cto the hospital to visit me. That child is lucky to be able to make a way out of a desperate situation. When I was chatting with her, I mentioned you a few times, and she seemed to be distracted whenever I mentioned you. It was obvious that she couldn’t let go of you. Listen, it was my fault she becdistant. I pampered Lucas and Ada too much while neglecting her feelings, causing her to suffer a lot. But now that I have cancer, I can be considered to have suffered my karma. So, before I die, I only hope that you can reconcile and live a good…”
“Get to the point.” Jason’s deep voice cfrom the other end, interrupting her long speech.
Claire was overjoyed. She had called Jason countless times and could call him every time, but he had never said a word to her. She did not expect to receive a response immediately when she mentioned Sophia. She understood that the reason why Jason didn’t block her contact was not because he respected her, but because he could use her to win Sophia back
“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll get to the point. Sophia is my daughter. I know her very well. If you want to continue your relationship with her, I can help you get her back.”
On the other end of the phone, Jason was sitting in his chair. As he listened to Claire’s words, he fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, the sound of knocking resounded in the huge space. It was dull and slow. The department directors stood before Jason’s curved desk while looking at each other and lowered their heads.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJason had bectemperamental ever since he lost Sophia. One second he could be smiling with you, the next he could just fire you. Although
Sophia had been revived, the temperament he had developed over the years could not disappear overnight, Jason might have a gentle side, but he would never show it in front of any people. So, before The Tyrant got angry, the department directors quickly clamped their tails and held their breaths to avoid being implicated.
Jason leaned lazily against the back of the chair. As he knocked on the desk, he thought about Claire’s proposal. Her words seemed to make sense. She and Sophia were mother and daughter, so they naturally understood each other. With her around, it might be effective to win Sophia back. He did not want to miss out on anyone who could help him chase after his beloved wife.
Afterward, Jason stopped tapping the table and asked lightly, “What are your conditions?”
There was no need to ask. He could vaguely guess sof it. She could either beg for a sum of money to cover her treatment, or ask for ransom to save her son’s life. Since Sophia had already helped her resolve the former, there was only the latter left. Heh, selling her daughter for that gambling–addicted son again.”
Claire knew that Sophia hated her to the core, but she still sacrificed her in exchange for a reward. If she wasn’t selling her daughter, what was she doing? She had never put herself in Sophia’s shoes, so she never knew how deeply she had been hurt by such action.
“State your terms” Jason shouted, raising his voice sharply.
