Chapter 1307:

Jake clenched his fists, clearly angry.

With no choice, Gracelyn instructed the servants to wheel Kallie back to her room for some rest.

Gracelyn then turned to Jake apologetically.

“Mr. Collins, please don’t take it personally. Kallie has been quite irritable since her leg injury. This is the first time she’s reacted this way. Have you two met before?”

Gracelyn’s face softened as she said, “Mr. Collins, as you can tell, this isn’t exactly a fun place. It’s remote and quite lonely. If you want to repay me, you don’t have to stay. You young folks prefer vibrant environments, something which I don’t.”
