Chapter 168:
Despite Sarah’s tears soaking the evening, Jake remained unmoved, his door firmly shut.
As the clock struck past midnight, Sarah’s cries dwindled to a weary silence.
Slumped against the cold floor, her gaze hardened with deep-seated bitterness. Did Jake really love her? Her heart sank under the weight of his indifference. How could he be so heartless?
Sarah’s mind raced for any reason behind Jake’s coldness toward her. Perhaps it was her own actions against Kallie that had turned him away. Could it be that Jake harbored feelings for Kallie, especially now that she was carrying his child? What role did that leave for her? Was she doomed to be the perpetual other woman, never to claim his name?
These thoughts swirled in Sarah’s mind, fear causing her body to shiver.
A shadow of spite flickered in her eyes. No, this couldn’t be her fate.
As dawn crept in, Edgar approached Sarah. “Miss Miller, Mr. Reeves was merely caught in a moment of rage. Please get up,” he said, extending a hand to help her.
Sarah’s face clouded over, yet curiosity got the better of her. “Did Jake send you?”
Edgar forced a smile. “Of course,” he lied.
A glimmer of relief passed through Sarah’s stern features.
Edgar muttered a curse under his breath. Jake was still seething over Sarah’s careless actions that had hurt Kallie.

Realizing that if they continued to ignore Sarah, she might catch on, Edgar decided to console her.
Once Sarah calmed down, she began to overreact again. “But I feel like Jake doesn’t even care about me. If he did, he’d come to me himself instead of sending you. Maybe he’s still angry and doesn’t want to be around me. If that’s the case, I might as well leave.”
“Please,” Edgar quickly intervened. “That’s not true. Mr. Reeves is upset, not because you did something intentionally wrong, but because you were thoughtless. Look, Mr. Reeves fell ill suddenly, and because of you, the whole city knows about it. You ought to see the bigger picture. What Jake needs is a partner who stands by him and helps manage things.”
