    Chapter 390


    Thendlord’s reply pissed off Grayson to no end. He was about to ask thendlord about the room


    when the man hung up. “What’s going on? Did something happen to the um?” asked Catherine


    anxiously.


    “Thendlord said someone went therest night and took it away!” replied Grayson.

    “What do you mean? What about our money? If not for that damned urn, that girl would never give us


    fifty million!” Catherine began panicking. All of a sudden, a possibility popped up in her mind. “Hight,


    she must’ve hired someone to take it away…”


    With a frown. Grayson dialed Serenity’s number.


    A momentter, shr answered the call. “What’s the matter?”


    “Listen, I’ve thought about it, and since you’re still my daughter, if you can’t fork out the fifty million you


    promised yesterday, 1’ll ept half that amount first, and I’ll tell you where your mother’s buried. Didn’t


    you say that you were getting along well with Jackson? He shouldn’t have a probleming up with


    that amount, right?


    Although the are was gone, Grayson thought he could still deceive his daughter. If Serenity wasn’t the


    one who took the um away, then he could still purchase a new um and fill it up with fake ashes. It


    wasn’t muchpared to the twenty–five million that he could still get


    What he didn’t see was the pained expression on Serenity’s face on the other end of the line. She


    couldn’t believe her father was still trying to scam her using her mother’s ashes. Even after her death,


    he still wanted to squeeze as much use out of his wife as possible.


    “There’s no need for that. I acquired Mother’s ashesst night, and I’ve given her a proper burial,”


    replied Serenity. Grayson was fuming from the ears when he heard that “I knew it was you! How dare


    you barge into a room I was renting! How dare you remove your mother’s ashes and hery her without


    my permission! Don’t forget. I’m herte husband!”


    “oh, so now you remember that you’re her husband? If she were alive, I doubt you’d say the same,”


    snorted Serenity coldly. “Is. Is this how you talk to your father? You better tell me where she’s buried, or


    I’m gonna tile awsuit against you! Even Jackson won’t be able to protect you! Don’t think he treats


    you seriously just because you two are together. Unlike Arm, who’s officially epted as Lucas”


    girlfriend, you’re nothing but a ything for Jackson,”


    “oh? I’d like to see you try. Let’s see if I’m capable of protecting her.”


    Grayson was interrupted halfway through his sentence by a man’s voice. His tone sounded cold and


    hostile, which almost made Grayson choke on his own spit. At that moment, he fruze up and almost


    dropped his phone.


    Is that… Jackson’s voin?!


    Was he standing next to Serenity all this time? Did he hear their conversation earlier?


    “About that


    The call ended before Grayson was given the chance to exin himself.


    “What happened?” asked Catherine in a panic–stricken voice. The call wasn’t put on speakerphone, so


    she didn’t war Jackson’s voice.


    “What else?That girl managed to convince Jarkson to protect her!” yelled Grayson angrily. He was


    primarily ticked off by the fact that be was missing out on the benefits of his daughter dating such a rich


    and powerful man.
