Chapter 757

Sky stood at the entrance for a while before turning and heading back inside.

At some point, Charlotte had come to the doorway. When she saw him returning, she gave him a small smile.

"Sky, come with me somewhere in a bit."

"Alright, Mother."

"Go change your clothes. Don't wear a suit. Dress casually—something that makes you look younger. Oh, and wear a cap too."

Charlotte looked Sky up and down. After being out of prison for a few days, he had finally put on a little weight.

When Sky had just gotten released on parole, he was far too thin. His old clothes hung off him loosely and were now ill-fitting.

It wasn't until a designer came by to tailor some new ones that he finally had clothes that fit his figure again.

"Sky, don't carry any guilt with you. You're still our pride and joy." Charlotte stepped forward and hugged him. "Back then, we didn't step in to help you because we had other things to consider. I hope you don't resent us for it."

"Mother, I understand." Sky hugged her back. "I know you did it for my sake. Besides, I made terrible mistakes. I deserved to be punished.

"Not helping me was the right thing to do. If you did something wrong, you should pay the price for it. That's only fair. So, Mother, you don't need to worry. I don't blame anyone. I have no right to blame anyone in the first place."

"Sky, I'm really glad to hear that.

"Now, go change out of those clothes. We'll head out soon."

"Yes, Mother."


Sky turned and went upstairs to his room. He quickly changed into something casual. His outfit consisted of a simple T-shirt and a pair of sweats. He swapped his black dress shoes for white sneakers and pulled on a baseball cap that covered his still-short hair.

He instantly looked younger and more energetic.

Charlotte was satisfied with his appearance. "My son really is handsome. Let's go! Gorge, get the car ready."
