All Chapters of Save the Tears for Someone Who Cares: Chapter 571 - Chapter 580

"Hello?" Jacklyn picked up the call out of habit."Hey! You're Jacklyn Stinson, right? Your father's with me!" The caller pressed the phone close to George's side."Jacklyn, hey! It's Dad! You have to save me—" His voice was cut off as the phone was yanked away."You hear that?" The caller's tone was vicious, tinged with pride. "Prepare 300,000 dollars. I'll send you the account number. Wire the money, and he goes home safe."From the moment she answered, Jacklyn's heart had been as still as water. No matter what threats the man threw at her, it stirred nothing in her."I've had nothing to do with him for a long time. His life or death means nothing to me." As she hung up the call, she noticed Theodore walking over, still half-asleep. She immediately shifted her cold expression into a gentle smile. She crouched down and asked, "Theo, you're awake? Did I wake you?"Rubbing his eyes, Theodore mumbled, "Mommy, I think I heard Grandma's voice."Her arms went around him gently. "Sw

"Besides, when I marry another woman in the future, I'm sure my son will adapt to whoever becomes my wife," Eugene said."Eugene! Who are you going to marry? After all these years between us, do I mean nothing to you?" Penelope panicked at the thought of him with someone else.In her heart, she had always believed Eugene was her husband, and it was only a matter of time before she officially became the lady of Lloyd Manor. How could there ever be room for another woman?But Eugene had long since seen through her true character. His expression was cold. "What does that have to do with you? Whoever I marry, it won't be you."Penelope's brows drew tight. "I've looked after Noah all these years, from an infant to a lively child. I've managed the manor day in and day out. If you marry someone else, what about me?" Her composure was shattered."Why don't you mention the millions of dollars you've spent in Swanford over these years? Who's been footing the bill for that? Or where the hell

A spark of hope lit Jacklyn's eyes again.It was the same for Irene. The weariness in her expression was suddenly replaced by determination. "Right away!" She hurried out to the balcony, phone pressed to her ear.Jacklyn had only just sunk into the couch, clutching a cushion in thought, when Irene ran back in."I found it!" She was a little out of breath, but her face beamed with excitement."How was it?" Jacklyn looked at her expectantly.Catching her breath, Irene explained, "It matches up. His account showed no income for months, which explains why he'd take such a job. And the 600,000 dollars was indeed deposited in two transfers. "But here's the strange part. The money came from a man's account, someone I've never even heard of.""I see. Let Liam handle the rest.""Got it. I'll send it to him right away."Jacklyn watched as Irene focused on her phone. A warmth stirred quietly in her chest.She was utmost thankful that she had them. Without them, she would be fighting

Inside, Amanda was thrilled. She assumed they would never find a shred of evidence to tie that matter to her. "If anyone's an expert in framing people, it would be you, Ms. Scott," Liam's voice cut coldly from the side."What are you implying?"At that, Amanda's body tensed. Her mind raced back to the tactics she had used on that matter. Two, to be exact.The first was hiring a man to set the fire. The second was the bank transfer afterward.Jacklyn stepped forward, her tone calm and unhurried. "You know very well."Then, in an even voice, she continued, "James, who set the fire and fled out of Swanford, destroyed the surveillance. There's also the bank transfer. And… 20,000 dollars in cash. Am I right?"With each detail Jacklyn laid out, images flashed through Amanda's mind like a movie. Her eyes betrayed panic, as she was stunned at how they could possibly know.She had been so careful and cautious."There's no such thing as a flawless crime, Amanda." Jacklyn had already gu

When the time came, Amanda would willingly shoulder the blame. All it cost was a bit of money. It was neither much nor little for Penelope. So, why not?…In Jacklyn's apartment, it was Irene who first heard the news of Amanda being bailed out. A faint crease of worry clouded her eyes."Jacklyn, aren't you anxious?"Beside her, Jacklyn was holding her laptop, busy at work. "Not anxious. Not surprised either."Her tone made it clear she already had a plan for dealing with Penelope and Amanda."An eye for an eye?" Irene asked, her worry turning quickly into confusion. "Are you planning to set a fire of your own?""Yes. An eye for an eye." Jacklyn nodded. It was exactly what she had in mind. She met Irene's gaze and explained, "No fire. I did find out Penelope recently acquired a property under her name, though. Good location with a cheap price. That alone sounds suspicious."Her eyes glinted with the same thrill a predator showed when it had locked onto prey."Suspicious? Want
