Chapter 199:

Sophia’s eyes held a tumult of emotions, her hatred mingled with regret. However, it was too late now.

Despite Sophia’s desperate wish for Jerome’s sympathy, he no longer spared them. “From now on, they are no longer part of our Hayes family.”

At that moment, Sophia finally understood the depth of irreparable regret. In a voice cracked with anguish, she cried out, “Dad, don’t you want me anymore? I’m your cherished daughter. If my mom were still alive, she would be devastated. You promised you would always protect me.”

Once full of vigor, Jerome now seemed to have aged decades in a heartbeat.

For the first time, Kallie had seen such weariness etched on Jerome’s face.

Jerome sighed heavily and declared his decision, “Sophia and Boris will suffer until they reveal something substantial, after which they will be sent abroad. Make sure to break one of their legs as a minor punishment.”

The announcement dashed Sophia’s and Boris’ last shreds of hope, leaving them in despair. Their desperate pleas turned into harsh curses.

Kallie couldn’t help but exhale a relieved sigh. Fortunately, Jerome wasn’t swayed by Sophia’s words, showing no mercy. Despite Jerome’s family ties to Sophia and Boris, keeping individuals like them around was akin to nurturing a venomous serpent.

Visibly fatigued, Jerome said, exhausted, “I need to rest. Brent, come here. I have something important to discuss with you.”

Jerome’s words hung in the air, his gaze lingering momentarily on Kallie.

Kallie couldn’t decipher Jerome’s intentions, but she suspected they were somehow connected to her.
