"Ha ha!" Timothy waved his hand and laughed. "Yes, that's true. Mary, I don't blame Elissa. She is my precious granddaughter. I'm willing to tear this place down if she says so."
Hearing that, Mary opened her mouth but she could not find any words to say. She looked at William for help. She thought that in this way, the kids would be spoiled soon.
William gave her a reassuring look, stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Father!"
"Oh," Timothy snorted, "you're here too?"
"Haha!" Mary lowered her head and chuckled.
"Ahem." William coughed awkwardly. He was embarrassed.
"Dad, I want to see Grandpa's calligraphy!" Elissa said as she struggled to get out of William's arms.
"Me, too!" Alick followed her.
Looking at the two kids admiring his calligraphy, Timothy slowly walked over.
"I'm going to prepare dinner," said Amy.
"I'll help you." As she spoke, Mary followed her to the kitchen.
Timothy nodded and then said to William, "Why are you here? Why don't you enjoy the world of you and Mary only like last night? Do you want to take Alick and Elissa back? I won't agree!"
"Ahem." Mary was still in earshot when Timothy spoke. Hearing his words made her blush so she quickened her pace.
"Ahem." William also coughed because of embarrassment. "What's wrong with me coming to see my children? What's wrong with me taking them back?"
"Do you have time?" Timothy glanced at him and added, "You just took over the dock business. Can you take care of them?"
"Yes, you're right. I'm not as leisurely as my fath
here was no need to waste time on him, so she turned to leave.
"Don't go! Apologize!"
"Apologize for what?" Jazlyn glanced back and her impatience was evident on her face.
"When you drove over, your car dirtied my clothes." Lucas pulled his trousers to show her and shouted, "Are you blind? This is the second time!"
"What do you mean the second time?"
"On the tenth anniversary of AJ Group. In the manor."
"Oh. Right." Jazlyn nodded. "I see. I don't want the salary that day."
"Damn it!" Lucas cursed, while glaring at the woman in front of him. He roared, "Do you have amnesia? In the manor, you splashed wine all over my body. Have you forgotten? What's wrong with you?"
"You..." After looking at Lucas for a long time, Jazlyn finally understood what he meant. "It's you! Then you deserve it!"
"I'll kill you!" Lucas grabbed Jazlyn's arm.
Ring! Ring!
Jazlyn's phone rang inside her handbag.
"Hello?" She picked it up in a hurry, ignoring Lucas's hand.
"Jazlyn, why haven't you come?"
"Something unexpected happened, boss. I'll be right there!" And with that, Jazlyn hung up the phone quickly.
"Apologize!"
"Let go of me!"
"No!"
Lucas raised his head and stared at Jazlyn. Meanwhile, she just squinted and grabbed Lucas's arm. In a flash, she was able to throw him over her shoulder. Lucas fell onto the ground painfully.
"I told you to let go of me but you still didn't. You're asking for trouble!" Jazlyn clapped the dust off her hands and strode away.
"Jazlyn Xu! We are enemies forever!"
