Chapter 919

Chapter 919:

When Clayton visited Kallie, he discovered her absence. He hastily texted her, and she replied curtly, claiming to have gone for an outing to unwind. Remembering Jake’s unexpected return to Burmoos just days earlier, Clayton quickly pieced together the reason for Kallie’s sulking mood and felt a pang of displeasure. She was evidently still preoccupied with thoughts of Jake.

Fortunately, due to his previous manipulation, the misunderstandings between them made a reunion unlikely. Clayton expressed his concern for Kallie’s safety and discreetly instructed his subordinates with a stern command, “Locate Kallie’s whereabouts immediately. I’m concerned about her being out there alone.”

“Understood, Mr. Morgan.”

The following morning, Lacey received an invitation to visit the Reeves family estate. Kallie had moved out from the estate years ago, taking the children with her. Although the Reeves family estate was no longer their home, Kallie ensured it was maintained immaculately each year, holding onto the hope that Jake might one day return. She never anticipated, however, that when Jake did come back, he would be a changed man.

Upon discovering that Kallie was no longer residing there but made sure it was kept neat, Jake said nothing. He simply began moving his belongings back into the villa. He declared that his return wasn’t because this place once held the memories of his past with Kallie, but solely because it had been his home, his longing for its familiarity evident.
