Chapter 288: Is there really no way to meet Allison, considering she wants nothing to do with you? Lindy seethed, her frustration evident.

Those two scoundrels are now using the jade to argue that youre not the heir Keanu has chosen.

With the jade handed over to Allison, it means anyone can step forward for the position of heir now.

As she spoke, Lindy clutched her chest in indignation, her words sharp and fast, stinging as they left her lips.

Why are you acting like a fool now that Allison is out of the picture? When Lindy got worked up, she often spoke without thinking, which only made Colton more exasperated.

Meanwhile, Melany seemed to be the calm, rational voice in the room.

Lindy, please dont speak like that.

Its completely unfair to Colton.

Hes been doing everything he can, Melany said softly.

She linked her arm with Coltons, offering him comfort.

Colton, keep your chin up.

Even if we cant get the jade back, I heard theres a badge at the charity auction that could give us a major advantage.

Winning that badge might turn the tide in our favor.

Coltons brow furrowed, and even Lindy seemed intrigued by the mention of the badge.

She eyed Melany skeptically.

Where did you hear about this? Its insider information from a friend of mine, Melany replied, her demeanor unwavering.

So, Colton, securing that badge is our priority.

Those two illegitimate children of your father may think they have the upper hand, but with that badge, we could let the Dark Web handle them directly.
