Chapter 272
The elevator doors slid open, and the two of them stepped out one after the other.
Thalia said. “I’ll think about it, Sebastian. Thank you.”
But Sebastian replied, “Don’t be so formal with me. I couldn’t help you before, and I’ve always felt bad about it. I just want to do whatever I can to make it up to you.”
Thalia smiled. “Well, there’s something you can do right now.”
“Just say the word,” Sebastian replied.
“Could you give me a ride to the office? I need to get to work,” Thalia said.
Sebastian smiled. “Sure.”
Miya’s company had just been founded, but with investments from the Coleman Group and the Blackburn Group, and Darion’s connections, it quickly landed projects and got on track.
But out of nowhere, the Coleman Group was pulling out.
Miya found out about it last night. After hanging up, she gripped her phone so tightly it felt like she might crush it, her eyes stormy with dark emotions.
Damn it!’ she cursed inwardly.
She hadn’t even gone looking for Thalia, and now Thalia was the one stirring up trouble for her.
Miya booked a flight right away. The next day, she packed her bags, grabbed Keith, and headed out.
At the Blackburn estate, Keith was being looked after by a nanny.
When the nanny saw Miya carrying Keith out, she rushed to Helen to report it.
Helen’s face darkened, and she immediately sent someone to stop Miya.
The car pulled up at a street corner.
Miya held Keith close, her eyes rimmed with red, looking heartbreakingly fragile.
‘Mom, please, just let me take Keith and leave. There’s really no point in me staying here. I’ll take him overseas and never come back, so everyone can finally feel better,” she said, and then broke down in tears.
Helen frowned. “You’ve been living comfortably at the estate. You’ve never lacked for anything, and Keith’s always had someone to look after him. What’s all this drama about?”
Miya cried, shaking her head. “Mom, you and Grandma have always treated me so well, and I really appreciate it. I just want to do something I like, but Thalia won’t let me. She made sure the family wouldn’t invest in my company. I don’t even know what I did wrong.
“Maybe it’s because Darion cared about Keith, and she’s always thought there was something between us, so now she’s taking it out on me. But Mom, I swear, there’s nothing between me and Darion. I love Emely, only Emely”

She cried, looking so helpless. “Mom, please, just let me take Keith with me. I can take care of him

Helen rubbed her temples, feeling the stress mounting. “If you want to leave, that’s your choice, but Keith has to stay here”
“No!”
Keith, nestled in Miya’s arms, shook his head. “I don’t want to leave Mom.”
Miya hugged him tighter, her face full of desperate pleading as she looked at Helen. “Mom, please, just let me go. I’ll disappear, so Thalia won’t have any reason to be upset.”
Helen’s headache only got worse.
She called Darion right away.
Darion had just finished a meeting, and when he heard Helen’s words, his handsome brows instantly furrowed in concern.
I’ll be there right away,” he said.
