The words took Oliver by surprise.

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

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."

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