Chapter 727:

Now that they were back in their homeland, where the law was strictly enforced, even a small mistake could jeopardize the entire Morgan family.

After hearing Jake’s words, Clayton remained silent for a long time. He realized that his leniency had not earned Cara’s gratitude as he had hoped but had only fueled her brazenness.

As Cara listened to the recording, she heard Clayton’s voice fade into silence. At that moment, she held on to a sliver of hope. Clayton, her brother, had always been her protector, showering her with love and never failing to stand by her side. He had made countless sacrifices to keep her safe.
