Treyton fell into silence before blowing out a long breath. “You’re right. Dad’s stubborn. Convincing him to change his mind is harder than flying.”

“That makes it worth the challenge. Are you scared, Treyton?” Gwendolyn clapped him on the shoulder. “Don’t worry. I’ll help put in a few words for you. Plus, he may be able to control who you marry, but he can’t control who you date. Just do what you want, but keep a low profile.”

Treyton mulled over the wisdom in her words.

The pair chatted as they walked and arrived at the ancestral hall entrance sooner than expected.

Gwendolyn suddenly stiffened in shock as she stared at the empty doorway.

I forgot someone!

She exclaimed, “Oh no! I was so absorbed in our chat that I forgot about Jennifer. Why didn’t I see her while we were heading to the door? She said she would wait for you at the entrance to the ancestral hall!”

Treyton knitted his brows and asked, “Did she follow us here?”

“Yes. She said she was worried about you.” Gwendolyn wondered if she should turn back to find Jennifer. “She never breaks her promise. She wouldn’t have left unless she saw you. Unless…” Gwendolyn trailed off

and met Treyton’s gaze.

Both their expressions grew somber as their thoughts arrived at the same conclusion.

Treyton turned around first and sprinted in the direction of his villa.

Gwendolyn was not far behind as they headed down from the summit to the halfway point.

They were just pushing open the iron gates to the villa when Jennifer walked out with her luggage.

Treyton strode forward and asked, “Why did you pack your luggage?”

Jennifer lowered her head and replied somewhat guiltily, “I’m sorry to have imposed on your kindness, Mr. Harris. Almost a month has passed since Walter’s cheating scandal, and I’m sure the netizens have long forgotten about it. It’s time for me to move back to my place.”

Treyton grasped her wrist and yanked the luggage out of her grip. “I disagree!”

“Mr. Harris, you have no right to stop me from leaving. You’ve successfully broken off your engagement to Ms. Ferguson, so our contract is void!” Jennifer’s annoyance seeped through her words.

This was the first time she had said such harsh things to him.

Treyton pursed his lips, a frosty expression on his face. After some thought, he asked, “Did Lorelai say something to you when she left the ancestral hall?”

Jennifer did not bother to hide the truth and confessed, “She was absolutely right. We belong to different

worlds. I’ll never be a good match for you. I’m just a fake lover you hired for a job. It was improper for me to develop feelings for you, and I should not hold you back from meeting a woman deserving of you. I—”
