After Death, Love Unveiled

Chapter 35

Elara never expected Asher's situation to deteriorate to such an extent.

It had only been two days since she stopped paying attention to fim, and he got beaten up and kidnapped. With a father like Jefferson, his life sure was eventful.

Elara had no intention of helping. "You should call the police. The police would probably be more useful than me."

Initially, it was solely due to their old classmateship that Barrett hired Jefferson as his driver. Later, upon discovering his gambling habit, Barrett felt it was inappropriate and considered replacing him.

He admonished, "I've told you before, stop gambling! Your son is not a child anymore; you must think of him."
