Sophia looked at Stephen. "Do you need your father for something?"
"Yes," Stephen replied calmly. "I called him earlier. He should be here soon."
Sophia pressed further, "What do you need him for?"
Stephen had a nonchalant look on his face as he drawled blandly, "It's about expelling Jacqueline from the Jacobsons."
"Jacqueline's been arrested?" Sophia widened her eyes in surprise. "When was she arrested?"
Stephen promptly responded, "They caught her at Arcton yesterday."
Sophia was taken aback by the news. "Have you told your grandparents about this?"
"Yes. Grandpa won't be able to come, but he said he'll leave the matter to me. I've also informed Grandma about this," Stephen said.
Sophia let out a weary sigh. "Your grandmother has always doted on Jacqueline. She might not agree to your decision."
"So what if she doesn't? No one, not even Grandma, can change my mind after I've made a decision," Stephen answered resolutely.
…
Rowena returned from visiting her friends after hearing that her grandson, Stephen, had an important announcement to make.
Caleb had also pushed his work aside to hurry home.
Soon, the entire family congregated at the Jacobson residence's hall. They sat on the couches there, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Rowena was the first to end the silence, asking, "Stephen, did something happen?"
"Grandma…" Jacqueline let out a pitiful whine as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Rowena's heart clenched. After all, she had raised Jacqueline. Although Jacqueline had made mistakes, she couldn't bear to see her granddaughter in such a piteous state.
Unfortunately, Rowena didn't know that Jacqueline had ordered her goons to commit murder. She only knew that Jacqueline had ordered Susan to kidnap Selina.
In her eyes, there was still hope for Jacqueline yet.
What she didn't know was that Susan was dead—and it wasn't just her. Jacqueline had also silenced Susan's father, as well as Garret and his mother permanently.
Hope was far beyond Jacqueline's reach now.
Stephen parted his lips and intoned coldly, "Jacqueline, I shall say my piece before the entire family. I hereby renounce you as kin, and you are formally expelled from the family. Henceforth, you no longer have any ties to the Jacobsons."

Yuhohoooo!!! Finally!!!...
Aaand~ Tessa and Stephen are finally back together! Yaaaaay!...
Why make an uninteresting, irrelevant twist when readers are waiting for Tess and Stephen to be together?...
Gosh just let Tessa and Stephen get back together already! Ugh...
Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
