Chapter 181

with a warm smile, Charles crossed his arms and spoke to fasmine in a voice as soft and sweet as honey.

"I don't have time to play games with you, sis. But if you ever realize that your greed has led you astray-if God spares you and you decide to hand back what's rightfully mine, then come find me. Return the throne of Vancouver to its true king.

He turned sharply on his heel, tossing a final jab over his shoulder. "I hope you figure out the right path instead of chasing demons. But I won't hold my breath."

Jasmine stood there, her eyes wide in disbelief.

Their father had once assured her that Vancouver would belong to her, while Charles got Los Angeles.

How could Charles now claim that he was in the right-and she was the one in the wrong?

Alex placed a comforting hand on Jasmine's arm.

"You know how it is when someone sets their desire and ambition on something. They'll rationalize anything to get it destroy whomever they need to, all under the guise of good intentions."

The road to hell is always paved with good intentions. 1

Jasmine's voice trembled. "Did I make a mistake, Alex? Should I just give everything to Charles and end this ridiculous family feud?"

"I can't say," Alex replied with a small shrug.

"But I believe your father had his reasons for giving Vancouver to you. Maybe you should ask him directly."

Jasmine let out a long sigh and nodded.

"Fine. I'll do that. And... thanks for helping us get out of Vermont and back here to Vancouver."

"No problem," Alex said, though a puzzled look crossed his face. "But how exactly did we end up here?"

"You get us into Vancouver, and Kelly called her friends. They're the ones who got us the rest of the way, Jasmine said.

She kissed Alex on the cheek, then turned and walked away.

As soon as Jasmine was gone, Alex slipped into the hospital ward- only to be stopped by Florence, her eyes burning with fury.

"What do you think you're doing here, Alex?" she snapped.
