Chapter 1218 The Young Lady of the Wrenn Family
Gripping tightly on her spoon, Evelyn thought about it, and her expression gradually became strange as she demanded, "I like Collie. It has been so since I was young! I can't stand seeing him with someone else!"
Jackson looked at his stubborn daughter and frowned slightly. He sighed and reasoned, "Evelyn, Colton has married Nicole. He's someone's husband now. Why are you still so stubborn?"
It was rare for him to explain something so patiently, but Evelyn was so obsessed that she did not care what he said. She bit her lips and argued, "So what if he's married? It's not like he can't get a divorce! I fell for Collie first, so how could he be with Nicole? I can't accept that!"
Looking at the daughter he raised, Jackson did not know when she had gotten so insolent! He slammed his hand on the table and questioned, "Evelyn Wrenn, I'm asking you one more time! Are you insistent on being with Colton?"
She was slightly frightened when she saw fierceness on her father's face, but the thought of being together with Colton made her gaze gradually more determined as she demanded, "I want to be with Colton, no matter what!"
Her insistence baffled him as he scoffed and nodded. "Fine… If that's how you want it, I will hold a press conference tomorrow afternoon. I'll tell everyone your identity, and you will no longer be a member of the Wrenn Family!"
Her eyes reddened as she shot to her feet, looking straight at Jackson. "Fine. Go. I'll leave the family, so you won't have to be bothered about me again!" While she spoke, she ran out with tear-filled eyes.
When Siobhan saw that, she wanted to chase after Evelyn but was stopped by Jackson. "Sit down."
Frowning, she looked at him and reprimanded, "You know what Evelyn's like. She'll look for Colton now that she's free. Wouldn't that be causing trouble for Nicole?"
He sighed. Of course, he knew that, but keeping her cooped up at home was also fruitless. He scrunched his eyebrows and retorted, "Does keeping her home make any difference? Getting caught three to four times a day still doesn't stop her from trying to escape."
Siobhan bowed her head because she knew he was right. There was no use in keeping Evelyn cooped up at home; she was obsessed with Colton and would go to him sooner or later. The Wrenns might be able to keep her away for a while, but they could not restrain her forever…
She looked at him, asking, "What are you planning to do?"
Jackson replied, "Since things have come this far, we can only do as I said. We've doted on Evelyn too much, which is why she thinks she can have whatever she wants. Only when she suffers some hardships will she know that she's wrong."
Knowing that her husband was a man of his word, Siobhan sighed and did not object. She closed her eyes and nodded. "Okay. We'll do as you say."
In the meantime, Evelyn went straight to the airport after leaving the Wrenn Residence, eager to get on a plane to Durobrivae to meet Colton. However, she was told that her credit card account had been frozen when she tried to pay. She was stunned, not anticipating the Wrenns to act so quickly. While clutching the card in her hand, she looked slightly pale but quickly composed herself and changed to another card.
Unfortunately, all the credit cards under her name had been declined.
She knew Jackson meant what he said. If she refused to return to the Wrenn Residence, she would lose her title as the Young Lady. However, she was unwilling to give up; she had to find Colton!
After thinking about it, she immediately called someone. She had to use all the resources she could before Jackson cut her off from the family!
