Save the Tears for Someone Who Cares Chapter 703
"You're finally here." The man's voice was low and flat, as if he and Jacklyn had history."Why go through all this just to get to me?" she asked.She forced herself to stay awake and steady her mind. Whoever the man was, he hadn't come in peace, and she couldn't afford to slip.He turned his chair toward her. The chill in his voice sharpened. "If I hadn't messed with you a little and put in the work, you never would've agreed to meet me."Jacklyn gave a short, humorless laugh. "So, you jumped through all these hoops just to haul me in. Sounds like you've got the kind of business you don't want seen."The man didn't bother with small talk. "I'll be straight with you. I've got a few women under my wing. They look good, and they want in at Starborne."He smiled. Even in the dark, Jacklyn could see how sure he was, like the decision was already made.Signing a few women wasn't the issue. She had the authority to do that. The problem was what came attached. If this were a setup, Sta

Jacklyn froze, her thoughts crashing into each other. Her voice stayed steady, but her fingers fidgeted with the paper."This is illegal. Is it really worth throwing your whole life away and rotting in prison over money?"Max's patience finally snapped. He scowled. "You're just like your mother, talking too much. Spit it out. Are you paying or not?""I am. I'm taking the money to the hospital now. But if I get there and anything's happened to George, you won't see a dime, and I'll make sure it comes back on you.""One hour," Max said, and hung up.Jacklyn had one hour to handle two things—the cash and Theodore.Getting the cash was easy. Theodore was the problem. Everyone knew he couldn't defend himself, which made him her weak spot. She had to keep him safe.That left only Liam.Once Liam understood what was happening, he rushed over. He barely thought it through before deciding to go with her, but Jacklyn shut it down."Why can't I come with you? If something happens to you,

Penelope dropped it, saving Jacklyn for another day."That's bullshit," she said it out loud on purpose, making sure everyone heard her.In the entertainment industry, a smear only lasted until the target flat-out denied it.Nobody there knew what really happened, and Jacklyn wasn't about to drag out hospital security footage just to satisfy a crowd.All Penelope had to do was deny it and walk away, and this very public blowup would die down.Jacklyn snorted and went back to Theodore's side. Then, like it was nothing, she said, "Go take care of George. I don't need 2,000 dollars. You do."She wanted Rebecca to take the money and go.The silence dragged. Rebecca finally understood Jacklyn wasn't letting her back in—not this time. She took the cash and left.At the door, she said, for one last time, "I'm sorry." It was the same apology she'd given Jacklyn a thousand times.…The next day, after work, Rebecca went back to George's hospital room."Penelope, that ungrateful bas

A warmth spread through Jacklyn's chest. She ran her hand over Theodore's hair.Someone lingered at the door, hesitant to enter. Fingers fidgeting with her clothes, she finally called out, her timid voice shattering the heartwarming scene, "Jackie."They both looked at the door at once. Jacklyn's breath caught. Theodore chewed his food, eyes darting to her, hesitating to say anything.She'd laid everything out for Rebecca at the hospital back then, leaving nothing unclear. After that, Rebecca hadn't called or sent a single message.Jacklyn had assumed she'd never have anything to do with Rebecca again, but here she was, turning up unexpectedly.Rebecca approached Jacklyn, her movements hesitant and stiff, revealing the guilt she still carried for what she'd done."I heard about your apartment being broken into," she said, her eyes darting away.She pulled a thin stack of bills from her tote bag. "This is what I made from my job lately—2,000 dollars. Not much, I know, but it shou

Calmly, Jacklyn slid into the seat opposite Lydia with a smile. "I never imagined you'd go to such dirty lengths just to get Theo into Lloyd Manor."Lydia's fight had drained away. All she wanted now was a way out.She let out a long sigh, trying a more subtle approach. "Jackie, I feel terrible about what happened to your home. Seeing you and Theo forced to live in a rented apartment breaks my heart."But I swear, I never sent anyone to break in!"Her eyes shot up to Jacklyn's, pleading silently for her to believe.A scoff escaped Jacklyn. "Check this out."With effortless calm, she drew several bank transfer slips and chat logs between Lydia and Bob from her pocket. The evidence lay glaringly on the table, striking Lydia like a brutal wake-up call.She trembled from head to toe, unable to speak.Suddenly, Eugene appeared. "I'm sorry, Jackie. I never thought my mother would go this far. Can you forgive her, for old times' sake?"His words tumbled out in a rush, sweat beading a

Liam never left Jacklyn's side, standing quietly behind her as her unwavering support. Helplessness pressed on him, yet there was nothing he could do but remain steadfast, carrying out his duty.…A few days later, the burglar who'd broken into Jacklyn's home was finally caught. She made her way to the police station without hurry.After all, the evidence had come from her, so it wasn't surprising that they were able to track him down.That day, she went back home to take another look at the scene. Her house was a total mess, and she had no idea where to begin.As she turned to leave in disappointment, her eyes caught a surveillance camera at her neighbor's front door. A glimmer of hope had appeared.Jacklyn had gone to considerable lengths to bring gifts to her neighbor, all for the chance to see that footage.Thankfully, it didn't fail her. It clearly showed how the burglar had come and gone, even giving a rough glimpse of the face.The day after submitting the evidence, whic
