Chapter 704

"Bye, Mr. Ed!"

Edgar stood still, smiling as he watched them enter the house.

At a nearby crossroads, inside a sleek black Bentley, Gilbert gripped the steering wheel, his dark eyes intently focused ahead.

Even though he was some distance away and couldn't hear their conversation, the sight of Sherilyn hugging Jenna, both mother and daughter beaming at Edgar... What they said, did it matter?

Gilbert let out a low scoff, his jawline tense, his expression icy.
