Lucas didn’t say a word. Jolin hung up the phone.
In the Davis’ house, Frank had just entered the door when he heard Jolin’s words. He frowned and
asked, “Is it a call from Lucas?”
“Yes,” Jolin replied lightly, as if she did not want to talk to Frank. Looking at Jolin’s sullen face, Frank
did not say anything more. Just as he was about to go upstairs, Jolin stood up. She lazily looked at
Frank and asked, “Did you see Dave today?”
Frank looked at Jolin coldly.
Jolin continued, despite Frank’s displeasure, “You want to buy the Thompson Group from Dave?”
Frank’s furrowed forehead intensified.
His eyes turned colder.
Jolin smiled, “Do you want to ask how I know it?”
Seeing that Frank still refused to answer her, Jolin raised her eyebrows and sneered, “If you don’t want
anybody to know it, don’t do it in the first place.”
Frank’s eyes were cold. He walked upstairs after casting a cold glance at Jolin. That cold glance
suddenly hurt Jolin’s heart. Many years ago, Frank was also like this. He was cold and arrogant,
looking down on everything. Jolin felt that she had never been the cynosure of Frank’s eyes.
Jolin was unwilling to give up. She grabbed Frank’s sleeve and stopped him. She shouted, “If it were
Krissa, you wouldn’t turn a cold shoulder on her, right?”
At the mention of Krissa, Frank frowned.
The slight change in the expression on Frank’s face was captured by Jolin’s eyes. Like a thorn, it
stabbed into Jolin’s heart. She felt as uncomfortable as 10 thousand arrows piercing her heart.
“Do you think Savanna is the daughter Krissa gave birth to for you?”
The moment Jolin found out that Frank had the intention of purchasing the Thompson Group, she had
people investigate where Frank had been recently. She found that Frank not only wanted to buy the
Thompson Group, but he also went to Krissa’s grave to offer a bunch of white roses the day before
yesterday.
Not only that, Frank had been paying a lot of attention to Savanna recently.
“Jolin, don’t be unreasonable.” Frank’s voice was filled with resentment and warning,
“Unreasonable?” Jolin repeated this word, tears welling up in her eyes.
She said in a hoarse voice, “Let me tell you, Frank When Krissa was with you, she was no longer pure
and had an affair with that man. Savanna was also the child of that man.”
The veins on Frank’s forehead bulged. He gritted his teeth and laughed in anger. “So what?
“True love doesn’t care about this.”
This sentence hurt Jolin’s heart. Her eyes gradually turned red. Even though she tried her best to
restrain her emotions, her hand that was grabbing Prank’s sleeve kept shaking. Tears flowed into her
mouth, wet and salty. This scene was exactly the saine as many years ago.
“Prank.” Jolin cried out the name of the man who had tortured her heart for nearly thirty years. “Do you
have any love
“Frank.” Jolin cried out the name of the man who had tortured her heart for nearly thirty years. “Do you
have any love for me?”
Frank looked at Jolin, whose face was full of tears. There was no fluctuation of moods in his eyes. It
was so cold that it made people tremble. Jolin was disappointed.
She then said in a trembling voice, “Yes, I keep calling her a bitch. But the real bitch is me.”
Jolin slapped herself in the face.
Looking at the bright red slap mark on Jolin’s face, Frank curled up the corner of his lips into a faint
smile. But deep in his cold eyes, there was endless ridicule and sadness. “Jolin, what have you done?
Don’t you remember it?”
Jolin shivered. She took half a step back when she met Frank’s cold gaze. “What have I done?”
Frank said word by word, “Do you need me to tell you?
“Do you know why I can’t forget Krissa?
“That’s because I feel guilty. You were the one who found the man to harm Krissa, right? You didn’t
want me to be with her, so you found someone to treat her like that.”
Jolin’s heart beat fast. She turned her face away and wiped her hair from her forehead with her
trembling hands. She tried to keep calm. “I don’t know what you are talking about.”
Suddenly, her hand was grabbed by a strong hand, and red marks appeared on her fair wrist. She
screamed in pain.
Frank ignored her scream and pressed her down on the table. “If it weren’t for Lucas, you would have
died a long time ago. Jolin, Krissa is so kind, but you actually did that to her. She was only eighteen
years old. You…”
Frank’s eyes turned red when he talked about the shocking past.
He held Jolin’s neck with his big hand. Jolin could not breathe. Her face was red, and her eyes were
rolling up. The whites of her eyes were exposed. Frank was still exerting his strength continuously, as if
he really wanted to strangle Jolin to death.
“You ruined Krissa. I’ll kill you.” The grievances and resentment that had been suppressed in Frank’s
heart for a long time snapped.
The door was opened.
Lucas came back and saw Frank holding Jolin’s neck, while Jolin raised her head and tried to open her
mouth to breathe desperately. Her face was as pale as a dead person’s. Lucas was frightened. He
rushed over and slapped Frank in the face.
After being hit by his son, Frank was irritated. He released his grip on Jolin and slapped Lucas
viciously.
Lucas roared, “Dad, what do you want to do?”
Lucas’s roar brought Frank back to his senses. He looked at his trembling hands and smiled.
“Why don’t you ask your mother what she did?”
Lucas was not aware of the matter between his parents. He looked at Jolin in confusion.
Jolin burst into lears when she saw Lucas. She had finally found emotional support.
“Mom, say something. What have you done to make my dad want to kill you?” Lucas was anxious.
Jolin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and roared, “I didn’t do anything. He wronged me.
Lucas, your
