In the end, Jonathan did not let Candice go.
Aside from revoking her rights to claiming her allowance from Oceanic Estate as a member of The Ataraxy, he also ordered Mark to send her to The Substratum.
The Substratum was an impoverished and remote place. Whoever sent there would have a hard life.
“No, no, Uncle Jonathan. I’m sorry… I’m sorry. Please give me another chance, Uncle Jonathan…” On all fours, Candice implored Jonathan pitifully.
However, Jonathan shoved her aside with a kick.
“I’ve given you a chance. You made a huge mistake last time, and you were locked up for half a year. Yet, you didn’t learn from your mistake, and you expect me to give you another chance? Take her away!” Jonathan cried.
“Yes, Old Mr. Jadeson,” someone answered.
“One more thing. Keep a close eye on her. Once she has been sent away, she’s forbidden to return to Jadeborough without my permission. Or else, all of you will be subjected to punishment by military law!” Jonathan even threatened his men with military law.
He was very loud, and everyone in the building could hear him.
As such, the wailing woman was dragged away.
That night, Sasha was packing her children’s clothes. Suddenly, Vivian came over with her Barbie doll in her arms. “Are we going back soon, Mommy?”
“Yes, tomorrow.” Sasha caressed her daughter’s little head. The latter’s hair was damp after a bath.
Panic flashed in Vivian’s large, watery eyes. “What should I do now? My teacher said that she will organize a farewell party for me with my classmates, as I’ll be going back soon.”
“Huh?” It was Sasha’s turn to be surprised. What a thoughtful school to organize a farewell party for their student!
Sasha was at a loss.
At once, she turned to her two sons who were playing video games. “Matt, Little Ian, is it true? Did you have a farewell party in your class?”
“Yeah, but we declined it.” Matteo, who was enjoying himself immensely, answered the question with a nonchalant grin.
Sasha was speechless.
Vivian, who had her doll in her arms, looked like she was about to weep. Sasha immediately put down the clothes and hugged her.
