Chapter 99 Is a Dog More Worthy Than Me?

“What evidence do you have to prove that I lied to you?”

Jake was silent for a few seconds before he spoke with confidence, “And what evidence do you have to prove that Ava took the money your mother left for you?”

“The diamond necklace on her neck and Miles Upshaw from Sterling Law Associates can prove it!”

She found it ridiculous that she had to prove that something was rightfully hers.

Jake was speechless. It went without saying that he would not go to the law firm to verify whether Ava was lying or not. What he cared about was when he and Ava would make up. His parents had been asking him for the start-up capital for a while now.

Hearing silence from the other end of the line, Chloe hung up the phone.

Jake stared at the disconnected call, his brow furrowed tightly. He took a deep breath, knowing that other than the Johnsons, the only person who could help him now was his uncle. But he was worried about the relationship between Chloe and his uncle.

Jake gritted his teeth and went to Icarus with his last hope.

Sipping on a cup of tea, Icarus looked coolly at him and asked, “What’s the matter?”
