Chapter221

But now she realized the old saying rang true: the wealthier people are, the stingier they become, and the less willing they are to lose out.

“I won’t be taking care of Geoffrey. When he comes, he’ll handle everything himself.”

After speaking, Maureen shared her deeper concern: “Jacob and Ethan still don’t know about their parentage. If Geoffrey moves in, I don’t know how to explain it to them.”

“Ethan has met Geoffrey before and might be easier to fob off, especially since he’s hospitalized now. But Jacob’s more mature than other kids his age–I’m afraid he’ll figure things out.”

Hearing this, Zoe also felt at a loss.

The Sutton Family devours people without spitting out the bones. If they discover Jacob and Ethan are Sutton blood, they’ll snatch both kids away.

Just then, Katherine called. Maureen answered first.

Katherine asked, “Reenie, can I borrow Jacob again for a while?”

“Borrow?”

Maureen found it odd.

“You know Tyler’s back. His fiancee came too. They’re getting married. He even sent me a wedding invitation.”

Katherine took a deep breath. “Can you believe the nerve?

I want to bring Jacob to the wedding in a few days.”


With that unbelievable child prodigy around, he’d surely infuriate that jerk.

Maureen happened to be unsure how to tell Jacob about Geoffrey, so she agreed. She also mentioned Geoffrey moving in temporarily.

“How dare the Suttons dump a blind man on you?”
