Graham would have said yes to her request without hesitation if she had said that yesterday. He would even feel glad that this daughter of his had become sensible.
Everything was too late now.
Graham threw the newspaper he was reading to Jolene. He said nothing and continued eating breakfast.
Jolene was puzzled but still lowered her head to look at the newspaper. Her eyes widened in disbelief in the next second, and an incredulous expression overtook her features. "This...these reporters are simply spouting nonsense."
The newspaper reported extensively on her moving to James' villa last night. Some speculated that they were about to marry, while others said she was shameless. There were all sorts of comments, and most of them weren't positive.
"Dad, I was too impulsive yesterday. I shouldn't have moved in with him so soon." Jolene apologized with her head down. She'd rarely admitted her mistakes all these years.
Unfortunately, Graham was unmoved.
Jolene was helpless, so she could only turn to look to her mother, who was sitting beside her, for help. Of course, Rowena knew very well what Graham was thinking at that moment. She knew that even if she spoke up for Jolene, it would probably have no effect.
But at the end of the day, the matter concerned her daughter. So, she could only bite the bullet and speak up, "It's only been one night. It shouldn't have a big impact even if she moves back."
"Rowena, did you not see the comments online? Everyone in Bardoff City knows about it. How can you say it won't have a big impact?" Jenny sneered and spoke up. Since Jolene had moved out, she wouldn't give her a chance to return to the Walters.
"Weren't you so eager to move out? Why did you change your mind overnight? Could it be that you suddenly don't like James anymore?" Jenny mocked, sarcasm lacing her tone.
Jolene's expression darkened as she bit her lip. "I thought I should stay home to care for my parents instead of leaving in a hurry."
"Oh? Now you remember your parents? That's not what you said before when you wanted to leave." Jenny didn't hold back. Taking care of her parents? Only someone with thick skin like her could say such things unabashedly.

Loved the novel!! Hated the ending. It felt rushed to get it finished. I hope there is a sequel. There is a ton of potential for one....
The adds are getting worse! I shouldn't have to see porn to read a book...
