Chapter 978

After he finished speaking, the officials looked at him like he'd lost his marbles.

What was he thinking? Bringing Miss Candace in? For what? To treat her like a queen?

A voice from the office echoed, carrying a hint of laughter but sending chills down the spine. In the next moment, the officials hauled him out.

Jaden inhaled deeply and knelt down with determination. The butler shook his head, sighing, and asked someone to shut the door. The biting cold wind cut to the bone, turning Jaden's lips pale as he knelt there for three solid hours. The door stayed shut.
