    "I’ll send you home." Jackie started up the engine and drove away.


    Nobody spoke during the entire journey.The quietness ground at Violet''s heart, however.She wanted to


    say something but was afraid that he wouldn’t understand.She has cried in front of him twice—the first


    time was in Jacob’s room, and the second time was outside the police station.


    Jackie parked the car outside the Lovegood mansion and walked her in.Rose sat on the couch looking


    miserable, seemingly onto something.


    When she saw Jackie and Violet entering together, she slowly stood up.


    "Violet, you’re back."


    "Mon, I—"


    "Alright, there’s no need to say anything."


    Rose cut her off gently.


    "I understand your dad’s decision." She walked to Violet and held her hand.


    "Your dad made a mistake.We''ll let the court decide and wait for him toe back, alright?"


    Violet''s eyes were red again as she nodded.


    Rose looked toward Jackie and asked, "Why not stay for dinner?"


    Violet was going to help him get out of it.


    "He can’t." Surprisingly, Jackie said, "Sure."


    Violet looked at him in shock.


    Rose smiled and asked the helper to prepare dinner.


    Thomas learned about Aaron’s surrender and mentioned it while conversing with Nn.


    Maisie was aghast.


    Even though Aaron had nned the kidnapping all those years ago, he hadn’t asked the kidnappers to


    harm anyone.They had gone against his orders and caused a catastrophe.


    Even though Aaron hadn’t meant for anyone to die, he had triggered the kidnapping and indirectly


    caused Jacob’s death.He could have gotten off clean with his connections, but he took responsibility for


    his actions after many years.


    Nn picked up the teacup.


    "Did he reject an appeal by thewyers?" Thomas nodded.


    "Yes, I didn’t expect him toe to this realization suddenly."


    Aaron had orchestrated the kidnapping, which was illegal.


    Jacob was innocent and even sacrificed himself for Violet.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    That wasn’t what Aaron wanted.


    Unfortunately, it was impossible to undo Jacob’s death, and the past couldn''t be changed.


    Was Aaron really alright, seeing how his daughter lived in hatred and regret? Not at all, but he was too


    stubborn and thought that as long as Jacob was no longer in her world, time would heal all.


    But the living were suffering, and Thomas understood that.Others might not be able to empathize with


    Violet, but he could.


    That was why he was friendly to Violet.He could see himself in her, that person who had lost his love all


    those years ago.


    Maisie looked down.


    "Mr.Lovegood probably wanted to right the wrongs." Thomas paused, then nodded.


    "I guess."


    Meanwhile, at the Lovegood mansion...


    Jackie stayed for dinner, which was his first time doing that.He had visited the mansion less than five


    times when he was still married to Violet.


    Rose entertained him in a weing manner, helping him with the food.She understood what


    happened to her husband but also cared about her daughter.


    Violet pushed the peas around because she wasn’t hungry until Jackie ced some beef on her te.


    "Eat something."


    Violet was startled and looked at him.


    Rose could see how nicely Jackie treated her daughter and was d, but she was worried that her


    daughter might never walk out of this.


    Everyone knew about their divorce.
