Chapter 515

Author: Gathered Light
As Eugene stepped back, a cruel, almost vicious smile twisted across his face. "Soon enough, Jackie will be mine again."

"Dream on!" Liam spat.

For a heartbeat, a flash of malice flickered in Eugene's eyes before he was gone.

Liam was about to speak, but the worry etched across Jacklyn's face stopped him.

Her voice, low and tense, carried the weight of urgency. "Liam, I must find Abel. Martin only relented because of the evidence Abel had gathered for me. He risked himself for my sake, and I can't abandon him now."

After speaking, Jacklyn spun on her heel, ready to dash out.

Liam seized her shoulder. "Jackie, I know Abel's safety is urgent, but pressing matters in Swanford can't wait. Starborne and the studio have waited far too long. For now, you need to return.

"Leave the search to me. Trust me. I will ensure Abel comes back safely."

Jacklyn clutched his wrist, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. "You must find him, Liam. You must."

The flight back to Swanford was sche

    "Back then, when Penelope switched her own premature baby with Noah just to keep Eugene around, she should've foreseen this ending. Everything she's facing now, she brought upon herself," Ian said.Lucy happened to finish eating at that moment, and Ian started cleaning up the leftovers. Turning to Romy, he said, "Give Lucy some water, and I'll throw this trash out."He then turned to Liam and asked for their trash as well. Liam handed him a small bag, and Ian walked out. There was a bin not far away. He tossed everything in and was about to head back when two arms suddenly shot out from behind and wrapped themselves tightly around his waist."I've finally found you, Ian!"It was Penelope's voice.Ian froze for a moment. Then, he quickly pried her hands off and turned around to face her."Aren't you supposed to be at the police station, Penelope?" he demanded."The cops just gave me a warning and let me go," she mumbled, her head hanging low and appearing pitiful.She bit her li

    "Because Uncle Liam is carrying a bunch of stuff, he must be tired. That's why I hugged him first," Theodore answered matter-of-factly.Jacklyn chuckled and stroked his cheek. "You're very considerate, sweetheart."She then scooped him up and carried him over to the table in the dressing room."Theo, guess what your mom and I brought you for lunch today?" Liam asked softly as he began unpacking the food."Okie dokie!" Theodore replied excitedly.His eyes darted around as he guessed, "A spinach and cheese quiche?"Jacklyn chuckled again at how hard he was thinking. "Nope! Here's a hint—it's something your Uncle Liam made himself, and it's the kind of food you can count by the piece.""Oh! I know! Potstickers!""Close," Liam said as he opened the lunch container and revealed the answer.A wave of delicious aroma drifted out. "It smells amazing, Uncle Liam!" Theodore exclaimed. He then took a seat next to Liam and shouted, his mouth practically watering, "Mini tortellinis! In s

    Jacklyn's rebuttal was clear and logical, allowing those around to easily understand. Her voice was just loud enough for them to catch every word, too.Everyone suddenly got a clear picture."I knew it. She's not that kind of person.""So, that woman was the mistress who clawed her way up.""Unbelievable! Even a mistress is so brazen now? The audacity!"The mood shifted instantly.But Penelope didn't care anymore. She had already been kicked out of Lloyd Manor, so what else did she have to lose?With a cold snort, she lunged forward, raising her hand to strike. But Jacklyn reacted quickly and caught her wrist."Restrain her!" Jacklyn said sharply, turning her head slightly to address the security guards while she struggled against Penelope's full weight.The security guards had been dazed before, but the moment they heard the order, they immediately went to pull Penelope off of Jacklyn.Jacklyn stared at the wild-eyed woman in front of her, who was desperately trying to break

    Penelope swallowed her emotions, a glint of malice flashing in her eyes. She wiped her tears and got into a taxi.…After finishing dinner, Jacklyn went to Odore to check on how the studio was doing. As it turned out, things were stable. Both the domestic and international branches were performing decently, but since the overseas office had been established first, it had more of a robust client base.Even though the studio in Swanford was growing rapidly and their latest designs were proving popular among the city's high-society wives, there was still a gap in revenue.Jacklyn glanced over the financial report for the month, quietly analyzing it."Jacklyn! Get out here!""Ma'am, please calm down and stop yelling."A commotion stirred outside her office. Frowning, Jacklyn set the report down and headed out to take a look.She pushed open the office door and asked, "What's going on?"As she looked up, she found a disheveled Penelope standing there, her face streaked with tears.

    "You really are stupid," Eugene said, cracking his neck without even glancing at Penelope.He was done holding back for a woman like her. If it weren't for her, Jacklyn wouldn't have left him, and things wouldn't have gotten so bad between them—to the point of no return.Jacklyn had loved him so deeply back then and had even carried his child. Penelope, on the other hand, was nothing but a scheming woman full of malice, always pulling tricks behind everyone's backs—even when Jacklyn was still around.As he recalled everything that had happened over the years, his calm facade shattered. He felt nothing but annoyance now, and when he saw Penelope parading around Lloyd Manor, that only made him more fed up.And on top of that, she had played him like a fool.Penelope stood there nervously, not daring to speak. She wanted to slip back to her room while Eugene was lost in his thoughts, so she stiffly turned around."Don't move," he ordered.There was no escaping for her. Penelope bli

    "Well, I almost cried!" Theodore answered.Belle burst out in laughter, practically doubled over.Jacklyn came over with a glass of water in hand, and she couldn't help laughing along as she saw the scene in front of her."Here. Have some water." She placed the glass on the coffee table as Belle set Theodore down."Theo, I have something I need to talk to your mom about. You go play by yourself for a while, okay?""Okay!" Theodore answered before his little legs carried him into his bedroom.Jacklyn sat down next to Belle."Was this Penelope's doing?" Belle asked, her expression returning to its usual serious self as she took a sip of water.Jacklyn shook her head. "No, because Noah was kidnapped, too. If Penelope dared to use him as leverage, then she might as well kiss her dream of becoming Mrs. Lloyd goodbye," she said with a shrug."Okay. Now, down to business," Belle said, her eyes lighting up with sharp intensity.This puzzled Jacklyn. "Just spit it out.""Alright…" Be
