Chapter 2510

Jason set down his knife and fork, a crease forming between his brows as he pulled out his phone to scroll through the latest news from home.

The old photos were gone, but Grace and Connor's public apologies were still pinned at the top of the page. The deeper he read, the tighter his brow furrowed. From the wording alone, it was clear just how much Sophia had been hurt by what they'd done.
