Chapter 51

Jackson and Lilian exited the building.

Jackson’s aura radiated fury, yet Lilian dared to ask.

“Jackson… she’s the studio owner? I don’t buy it

Owner? Impossible.

Stephanie must be faking.

When Lilian left the office earlier, she’d glimpsed dozens of employees-

A sizable operation.

The Hart family hadn’t funded her. Where’d the money come from?

Even if she has a relationship with her brother’s partner, it must have been recently established, right?

If she’d had a backer all along, why endure years of Hart family humiliation?

Jackson shot her a cold glare, silent. His phone rang.

Seeing the number, he answered urgently: “Mr. Grant.”

Whatever was said drained the color from his face.

“What‘ 1-1 only brought Lilian to apologizel Nothing else!”

The dial tone replied.

At the same time, Jackson exuded a murderous aura.

Lilian froze, breath hitching.

Jackson’s glare could’ve devoured her whole.

“Stay away from Stephanie,” he hissed. “Avoid her. Always.”

Lilian felt silent.

Jackson: “If you cross her again…”

What then?

He left the threat unspoken.

But the threat in his eyes extinguished Lilian’s doubts about Stephanie’s legitimacy.

If Jackson had been this enraged since last night, Stephanie’s status might indeed be formidable-

Especially after the call….

Lilian ventured timidly, “Should… should I apologize again?”

Jackson: “Don’t bother. She’s already whined to him. Another misstep, and we’re finished.”
