675 Chapter 674

Oliver's roar made Jake tighten his jaw.

He steadied Melissa. "Mom, let's go."

The words took Oliver by surprise.

He hadn't expected Jake to actually leave and frowned in confusion.

Nathan was immediately displeased.

While Selena brought benefits to the Horton family, Nathan knew well the value of a granddaughter versus a grandson. He spoke up, "Where do you think you're going, Jake? There's no overnight feud between father and son. Apologize to your father, and let's move past this."

Oliver lifted his chin, looking down at Jake with a sneer. "Let him go if he wants. Once he's out of the Horton family, let's see how he manages!"

He was confident Jake had lived a life of luxury and would find it hard to leave behind.

Jake replied with a wry smile, "Grandpa, I'll come back to visit."

Before Nathan could respond, Oliver scoffed, "Visit? Once you're gone, you're no longer part of the family. Don't bother coming back! Do you think you can mooch off your grandfather?"

Nathan snapped, "Oliver! Don't be so harsh with Jake!"
