Jacob grabbed his phone and immediately tried calling Wayne, but as expected, it went straight to voicemail.
Next on his list was Rosalynn. After ending the call with her, Jacob made his way back to his apartment in B City. He cleaned up, dressed sharply, and then set out for the Strand estate.
Despite his neat appearance, the changes in him were striking. He was tanned and had lost weight, no longer resembling the dashing, peach-cheeked playboy of his past.
When Graham Strand heard that Jacob was home, he hurried out to greet him.
Upon seeing Jacob, Graham could barely recognize him and, with tears streaming down his face, he thumped Jacob on the chest, "My boy! You’re finally back! Your mother, she... she..."
Jacob hadn't even seen his mother yet. Just the sight of his father, now with silvered hair, was enough to break his heart. His father hadn't looked like this when he left.d2
"Sir, it's good news that the young master has returned, please try to stay calm, you need to watch your heart problem!" the butler choked out, a reminder laden with concern.
"What's wrong with my heart?" Jacob asked, bewildered.
"Don't ask me, go see your mother first, maybe she'll get better when she sees you!" Graham insisted, clutching Jacob's hand tightly and leading him toward the backyard.
As they approached the garden, Jacob could hear his mother humming a tune.
