Save the Tears for Someone Who Cares Chapter 194
The river surged with choppy waves as the relentless drizzle pressed down, heavy and unyielding, like a weight on everyone's chest by the bridge.Rain streaked down Quentin's face. He stared at the shattered railing and the river below, its surface so dark that it looked almost black. It felt like something heavy was sitting on his chest, pressing down until he could barely breathe."M-Mr. Lloyd… What do we do now?"Back in the opulent banquet hall, Eugene's face was bloodless. He shook his head violently, jaw clenched tight."I told you to get Jackie moving, and you're standing here cracking jokes? Watch your mouth, or so help me, I'll end you!"Then came the blast of sirens through the phone, followed by the urgent shouts of rescue teams.The moment hit Eugene so hard, it was like lightning splitting his world open. He couldn't believe it. He refused to accept that any of it was real.Then, Quentin's voice came through the phone again, "Mr. Lloyd, Mrs. Lloyd…"The sounds comi

Jacklyn flipped the gown over and spotted two spots on the straps where it had been resewn. The tension in her brows slowly eased.So, Penelope wanted to humiliate her at the birthday celebration, huh?She set the gown back in the box and remarked pointedly, "How thoughtful of Penelope to keep me so close to her heart."Just as Eugene stepped forward, his phone rang. He paused and answered.They were standing close enough that Jacklyn could hear every word—something about the island purchase being finalized and the deed scheduled to arrive on Penelope's birthday.Bored by the details, Jacklyn used the moment to slip upstairs while Eugene was still on the call.…The day of the birthday celebration came quicker than expected, and Eugene was eager to finalize the paperwork before the event began.After securing the deed to the island, he sank into the couch, his eyes drifting toward the staircase for what felt like the 100th time.Another ten minutes dragged by before he finally

Jacklyn and Eugene had spent most of the day at the Lloyd family estate.It wasn't until Lydia had finished showing off her rare piece of coral that she finally got to the point. "This isn't the only reason I asked you here. There's another matter—one that involves Lloyd Group."As the maids quietly cleared the display, Lydia turned to Jacklyn. "Your ties to Ms. Lopez give us leverage. Use them to secure Lloyd Group's interests. If we take control of the Women's Association, the returns will far surpass what we're getting now."Jacklyn scoffed inwardly but played along smoothly. "Of course, Lydia. I'll do my part."Thanks to Jacklyn's cooperative attitude—and Lydia being in a surprisingly good mood—she got off easy this time. Lydia didn't give her a hard time.After all the running around, Jacklyn and Eugene finally returned to Lloyd Manor. Drained from the day's events, Jacklyn only managed a few tired words before retreating to her room and collapsing into bed.With the birthda

Once Jacklyn laid the plan out, she let out a sigh of relief. Just before leaving, she turned to Irene and told her again and again, "I can't promise Penelope won't come after you again, Irene. So just be careful for now. And remember. You're the one who matters most."Irene gave a reassuring nod. "Don't worry. I can handle this."Then, she wrapped Jacklyn in a hug and murmured, "Jackie, your life is finally your own now."Jacklyn nodded.Instead of heading straight back to Lloyd Manor after leaving Mooncrest Gardens, she made her way to a cafe. The moment she stepped inside, her eyes landed on Liam, who was already there, waiting for her.She stepped forward quickly. "Have you been waiting long?"Liam shook his head. "No. You called so suddenly. I was a little surprised. Is everything okay?"Before heading to Mooncrest Gardens, Jacklyn had also reached out to Liam. She was leaving soon, and some things were better said face-to-face."Yeah, I'm leaving."She gave him a quick r

Jacklyn braced her hands against Eugene's shoulders, waiting for his excitement to settle before giving him a few light pats—her signal that it was time to put her down.Eugene caught on right away and carefully guided her to the couch. "I'm just so happy, Jackie."Rubbing her forehead to ease the lingering dizziness, Jacklyn said, "I know. But there's something you might not have thought about."Since this had to do with the Women's Association and Lloyd Group, Eugene's expression grew serious."What is it?" he asked."Ms. Lopez may have taken me in as her goddaughter, too, but it's not the same as what she feels for Penelope. Just look at the birthday celebration she's throwing for Penelope—'lavish' doesn't even begin to cover it."Jacklyn paused for a beat, then met Eugene's gaze. "And one more thing. Ms. Lopez invited both of us. We're officially on the guest list for the birthday celebration."She glanced at Eugene, curiosity flickering in her eyes. "So, what are you planni

Penelope tilted her chin up smugly. "Well, I'll thank you in advance, Jackie. Hope you actually show up when the time comes."Jacklyn rose to her feet. "I wouldn't miss it."After trading a few empty pleasantries, Jacklyn made an excuse to leave. The moment she turned her back, Penelope rushed after her, insisting on walking her out.Catching up at the front entrance of the Lopez residence, Penelope muttered, "Listen, Jackie. Don't get too full of yourself just because you've managed to worm your way into Emily's good graces."You did her one small favor, and that's all. I'm still the one she values. What's mine stays mine, and you'll never get your hands on any of it."Jacklyn had no interest in feeding into Penelope's delusions of grandeur. She left without a word.The snub hit Penelope like a slap, twisting her features into something ugly. She refused to believe Jacklyn didn't care. No one walked away like that unless they were trying to hide how much it stung.The thought s
