Chapter 514: Jared Absolutely Behaves

After appeasing Grace, Max returned to his study to call the Lyon family. Grandma Lyon had just come out of the operating room and was not yet awake; Sonia answered the phone.

"Mr. Hancock, what's the matter?" Sonia asked warmly.

Max's tone was very cold, "Miss Lyon, my daughter came home crying today, and you still have the audacity to ask what's wrong?"

Sonia was taken aback. All members of the Lyon family were at the hospital, and with the current focus on managing online public opinion, they had no time to attend to Grace's date with Jared, let alone keep track of Tina's whereabouts. Hearing Max speak like this, Sonia realized there had been a serious issue.

"Mr. Hancock, I am terribly sorry. The girl Jared brought along today had a conflict with my mother. We are all at the hospital now and don't know what happened. We haven't been able to contact Jared either. Did that wretched Tina bully Grace again?"

Sonia repeatedly called Tina names, aiming to placate Max and shift all blame onto Tina.

"Who exactly is this Tina?" Max asked.

Despite Grace's explanation, he still wanted to verify the facts for reassurance.

Sonia chuckled, "She's just a country girl who knows nothing, eyeing Jared's money. If it weren't for her looks, Jared wouldn't have noticed her. Don't worry, she is not even close to matching Grace."

Even Sonia spoke thus, allowing Max to feel reassured.

It seemed to be a case of mistaken identity.

If it were indeed that Tina, she wouldn't be after Jared's money.

Speaking of money, the inheritance left by his elder brother was enough for Jared for several lifetimes.

"Hmph, you can't handle a country girl, and you expect me to trust you with my daughter?" Max complained.

Sonia quickly tried to smooth things over, "Mr. Hancock, we are all one family, don't you trust us? Rest assured, my mother has everything arranged. Once she is discharged, we will organize an engagement party for Jared and Grace and invite all the notable people of Clearwater to celebrate. How does that sound?"

Max squinted, "Are you sure Jared will listen and agree to the engagement?"
