Instantly, the image of Josephine's face that was smiling sweetly, and his parents' kind smiles popped into Jared's mind. His family had always been his weakness.
Finally, he put away his sword slowly. Seeing that, Curtis got to his feet hurriedly and charged out of the place.
“Curtis, please take me with you... Take me away...” Seeing Curtis was running away, Callum ran over and grabbed the former's legs.
“Get lost!” Curtis kicked him aside.
After all, he was already having a hard time saving himself. Now that he finally had a chance to escape, he could not bother to save Callum.
Callum's face turned pale instantly, and his body shuddered with fright, wanting to flee the place.
Unfortunately, as soon as he arrived at the door, Tommy and Phoenix stood in his way.
At that moment, Shawn and his wife had already awakened from Spencer's treatment. However, both of them looked as though they had aged tremendously.
Seeing his parents were awake, Callum ran over and got to his knees. “Dad... Mom... I was wrong! I've made a mistake! Please forgive me! I promise to be your filial son from now on!"
Meanwhile, Shawn stared at his son before him. Immediately, his face turned red with anger, and he sent a kick into the latter's abdomen.
Jane too had a complicated expression. She merely closed her eyes, not uttering a single word. After all, she did not know what to say. Although Callum was not Shawn's son, he was still her flesh and blood. Shawn approached Jared and said with gratitude, “Thank you, Mr. Chance. If it wasn't for you, our family will be doomed.”
“Mr. Robinsons, you're being too polite. I'm merely doing my job. Since I've already taken your money, of course, I'll have to help you. If you still plan to live here, I can help you remove the arcane array. However, it'll take a few days before you can live in here due to the nature of this land,” Jared responded.
“It's okay. We're not living here anymore.” Shawn shook his head and sighed slightly. “I'll never come here again. Never...”
Jared felt a wave of helplessness when he saw Shawn's reaction. After all, they were a perfect family. Now that they experienced such an upheaval, it was hard for them to not feel miserable.
Nonetheless, it was best for Jared to not get involved in their family's business. Since he knew it was pointless to remain in that place, he bid his farewells to Shawn and left with Spencer.
