Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 160

As expected, the PR stunt worked like a charm, turning the online tide against Jerome and giving Jaylan some respite.

I was only giving him a brief respite because I had to use this opportunity to take back what I wanted.

After taking care of all that, I rushed to pick up Monique. Without wasting any time, I bought plane tickets for us and headed straight for Silverdale City together with three kids and Helga.

I did this for several reasons. I intentionally left some space for Jaylan to clean up his mess. Once this mess was handled, it would inevitably cause conflicts. I was just leaving them to tear each other apart.

Also, I must deal with the nanny situation in Silverdale City as soon as possible. I had no idea how much my parents knew, but it was time to talk to them.

What I didn't know was that the situation in Silverdale City was way beyond my imagination.

When landing in Silverdale City and stepping into Oldtown Avenue, a familiar smell greeted us.

I vaguely remembered the last time we were here, Monique was only about 4 or 5 years old, and Probert was about the age as Carl.

Monique had grown to be a beautiful young lady. At home, she was a bit rebellious, but she was suddenly a lot more obedient here.

When I picked her up, she was visibly upset, huffing and asking me, "Why did you come to pick me up? Where's dad?"

She was resistant to my arrangement when she got home and heard that we were flying right away, and she had been sulking for a long time, even ignoring Helga.

It was only on the plane that she couldn't help but ask me, "Why did we change the nanny?"

I told her the previous nanny had returned to her hometown to get married. She then sulked back into her seat, pretending to sleep. I chose to ignore her sulking and let her deal with it on her own.

Probert kindly told her, "Monique, I really like Helga. Her cooking is good, and you'll know once you try it!" Probert had become my secret weapon.

We hadn't been back here for a long time, especially Monique, who was excited to see the dreamy Oldtown Avenue.
