Chapter 91:

Speaking on the phone, Jake’s tone was gentle, though his brow was furrowed slightly. Unbeknownst to him, Kallie observed this from the passenger seat. After a brief moment, she exited the vehicle.

“Jake, today was just dreadful,” Sarah said pitifully over the phone.

Sarah had spent her day trying to win Shirley’s favor by assisting with various tasks, but during the banquet, all the praise was unexpectedly claimed by Kallie.

Disheartened yet unable to express her frustration openly, Sarah sought comfort from Jake, suppressing her feelings to gain his empathy.

Jake listened and offered words of solace. After ending the call, he stepped out of the car, only to discover that Kallie had disappeared.

Frantically, Jake checked his phone and was surprised to find a message from Kallie sent fifteen minutes ago: “I’ve taken a cab to the house Jerome gave me.”

The message was brief, lacking any goodnight or further explanation. Instantly, Jake’s face clouded over, his fist thumping against the car window in frustration.

Meanwhile, Kallie had arrived at her new residence for the first time. She had navigated her way to the centrally located apartment, unlocked the door, and as she entered, the living room lights switched on automatically.

The security at the apartment complex was top-notch, with guards stationed at the main entrance and throughout, ensuring her safety—a priority for Jerome, who had arranged this, mindful of her possible fears when alone.
