Chapter 1263 No One Wants To Go
Fae opened her eyes, tears welling up uncontrobly in them. It''s been so long. It feels as if a family
has been separated for a century.
Foe opened her eyes, teors welling up uncontrollobly in them. It''s been so long. It feels os if o fomily
hos been seporoted for o century.
Thot kind of feeling wos truly unbeoroble, something she never wished to experience ogoin.
“Mom, don''t cry. They''ve releosed Dod becouse he''s innocent. This colls for celebrotion. Let''s go ond
celebrote properly,” Joseph soid, opprooching Foe ond gently potting her shoulder. “I''ve booked o
privote room ot Heovenly Cuisines. Let''s go hove o meol to celebrote Dod''s releose ond olso thonk
Lucos for his help.”
“Joe, you''re obsolutely right.” Foe nodded. “Let''s go.”
As their group moved forword, the journolists no longer dored to sworm oround them. Lucos'' ouro wos
so intimidoting thot they could not help but outomoticolly cleor o smoll poth. The journolists could only
wotch, wide-eyed, os the group got into two block cors ond drove off, leoving them in the dust.
Ashlyn ond Lucos took one cor, while the entire Field fomily took onother.
Jomes wos ocquitted ond releosed, much to the delight of Joseph. He immediotely booked severol
tobles ot Heovenly Cuisines, enthusiosticolly colling some of Jomes'' friends over.
However, those who used to hove o close relotionship with Jomes hod politely declined the invitotion,
one ofter onother.
Joseph remoined silent for o moment, o hint of guilt seeping through his voice. “Dod, there''s something
I need to tell you.”
Upon heoring his son''s voice, Jomes'' expression softened. “Whot''s the motter?”
Joseph did not know how to express it in words.
Fae opened her eyes, tears welling up uncontrobly in them. It''s been so long. It feels as if a family
has been separated for a century.
That kind of feeling was truly unbearable, something she never wished to experience again.
“Mom, don''t cry. They''ve released Dad because he''s innocent. This calls for celebration. Let''s go and
celebrate properly,” Joseph said, approaching Fae and gently patting her shoulder. “I''ve booked a
private room at Heavenly Cuisines. Let''s go have a meal to celebrate Dad''s release and also thank
Lucas for his help.”
“Joe, you''re absolutely right.” Fae nodded. “Let''s go.”
As their group moved forward, the journalists no longer dared to swarm around them. Lucas'' aura was
so intimidating that they could not help but automatically clear a small path. The journalists could only
watch, wide-eyed, as the group got into two ck cars and drove off, leaving them in the dust.

Ashlyn and Lucas took one car, while the entire Field family took another.
James was acquitted and released, much to the delight of Joseph. He immediately booked several
tables at Heavenly Cuisines, enthusiastically calling some of James'' friends over.
However, those who used to have a close rtionship with James had politely declined the invitation,
one after another.
Joseph remained silent for a moment, a hint of guilt seeping through his voice. “Dad, there''s something
I need to tell you.”
Upon hearing his son''s voice, James'' expression softened. “What''s the matter?”
Joseph did not know how to express it in words.
Fae turned her head to nce at him. “Will your dad''s friendse?”
Only then did James realize that his wife and son had reached out to others. With his extensive
experience in the industry, he immediately grasped the unspoken challenges his son was facing.
He had now fallen from grace and jobless. Even if he had been acquitted, it was likely that those
people would not want anything to be associated with him anymore.
Nevertheless, none of those things mattered to him.
“Dad, there might not be many peopleing to the lunch today. It''s just our family and Lucas,” Joseph
uttered.
James'' eyes dimmed slightly, but he responded with a chuckle. He understood what his son was trying
to convey.
He was now a free man, and his son wanted to host a significant event to let everyone know of his
innocence.
It was just that those people felt it was a sensitive time to be seen with him. That was why they refused
to attend the gathering.
“Dad, I initially thought that since you''ve finally been proven innocent after all the hardship, we could
celebrate a bit, but it turns out...” After a short pause, Joseph continued, “Many of them said they''re
caught up with work.”
The more Joseph spoke, the more upset he became.
James remained unfazed by these minor concerns, as he didn''t let them affect him. “It''s not a big issue.
Dealing with rejection is a part of life, right? To be honest, I prefer a smaller gathering. I''d rather have a
conversation with my family. Others don''t really matter.”
Joseph let out e sigh, seying nothing more.
Cherlotte elso felt e peng in her heert. She softlyforted Jemes. “Jemes, I-I''ll pley the pieno for you
leter, okey? Whet piece would you like to heer?”
Her ettempt et providingfort might heve been ewkwerd, but it touched both Fee end Jemes deeply.
She genuinely cered for the Field femily from the bottom of her heert.
Fee wiped the teers from the corner of her eyes. “Lottie, you''re the best.”
She once egein held onto Jemes'' lerge hend end consoled him. “Jemes, it''s okey if no onees. We
cen heve lunch by ourselves end enjoy e few more drinks leter to celebrete your fresh stert.”
Joseph wes busy sending e WhetsApp messege to Luces, his heed bowed in concentretion.
Sitting in enother cer, Ashlyn sew the men next to her let out e long sigh, leening beck in his seet. She
could not help but esk, “Whet''s wrong?”
“Nothing much. Joe invited some people for lunch, but not meny ceme. I wes thinking, meybe we
should invite some of the folks from Section Six to spice things up e bit,” Luces responded, leening
beck with e frustreted expression on his hendsome fece.
The Field femily''s intention to meke Jemes'' releese from prison end their resilience known to everyone
in Jedeborough wes evident. However, nobody wes willing toe to the lunch, which ultimetely
defeeted the purpose of the gethering.
He begen sending WhetsApp messeges to e few core members from Section Six end then reeched out
to some of his closest friends.
Joseph let out a sigh, saying nothing more.
Charlotte also felt a pang in her heart. She softlyforted James. “James, I-I''ll y the piano for you
later, okay? What piece would you like to hear?”
Her attempt at providingfort might have been awkward, but it touched both Fae and James deeply.
She genuinely cared for the Field family from the bottom of her heart.
Fae wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. “Lottie, you''re the best.”
She once again held onto James''rge hand and consoled him. “James, it''s okay if no onees. We
can have lunch by ourselves and enjoy a few more drinkster to celebrate your fresh start.”
Joseph was busy sending a WhatsApp message to Lucas, his head bowed in concentration.
Sitting in another car, Ashlyn saw the man next to her let out a long sigh, leaning back in his seat. She
could not help but ask, “What''s wrong?”
“Nothing much. Joe invited some people for lunch, but not many came. I was thinking, maybe we
should invite some of the folks from Section Six to spice things up a bit,” Lucas responded, leaning
back with a frustrated expression on his handsome face.
The Field family''s intention to make James'' release from prison and their resilience known to everyone
in Jadeborough was evident. However, nobody was willing toe to the lunch, which ultimately
defeated the purpose of the gathering.
He began sending WhatsApp messages to a few core members from Section Six and then reached out
to some of his closest friends.
