    Chapter 1861


    Darcie''s expression eased, “Don''t say things like that. Just talk to me before making any decisions next


    time. Don''t take matters into your own hands. I know you have good intentions, but what you did might


    end up causing trouble for Jaylene.”


    The man responded, "I understand.”


    Darcie was about to say something more when the door suddenly pushed open, startling her. Jaylene


    rushed in and said, "Mom, Trevor is safe!"


    Darcie glowered at her, "Where are your manners? How could you barge in here without knocking?”


    Jaylene apologized but still felt very happy. She walked over to hold Darcie''s hand and said excitedly,


    "Trevor wasn''t in the private ne. He took amercial flight back instead. I knew that such bad


    things would never happen to him.”


    She paused momentarily before asking, "Mom, why are you not surprised?"


    Darcie said helplessly, "Your dad called and told me about it already.


    "Why didn''t you tell me? I''ve been crying for so long,”


    Jayleneined as she nced at Darcie’s phone. *Mom, who are you talking to on the phone?’


    she asked curiously.


    Darcie remained calm as she said tly, “An old ssmate.”


    As soon as she said that, the person on the other end said,”Hey, Jaylene.”


    Jaylene was taken aback. That man''s voice carried an


    indescribable emotion, making her feel strangely uneasy.


    However, she politely responded anyway, “Hello, mister."


    That man paused for a moment, and his breathing became heavier. He did not speak for some time.


    Jaylene asked after the silence, ‘Mom, what is your ssmate''sst name? How should I address


    him?”


    Darcie did not answer that question but said, "Go downstairs and tell Sandra to prepare some dishes


    that Trevor likes. They''reing back in a while to have dinner with us.”


    Jaylene looked a little confused but did not ask any more questions. Then, she turned around and left.


    Darcie looked at her phone and found out that the call had not been disconnected yet. After a moment


    of silence, she said, "Just wait for a bit longer. When the time is right, I''ll tell her everything.”


    The man uttered a disappointed “okay” and remained silent for a long time before saying, "I saw her at


    the ce you were living with herst time. She has grown so much."


    Darcie''s face darkened, "You came to our neighborhood?”


    "I-I was just passing by.”


    The Saun family lived in a guarded neighborhood, so it was impossible for him to just casually pass by


    their house.


    Darcie''s blood boiled with anger, but she managed to hold herself back, "Don''t do this anymore. What


    do you expect us to do if the security guard catches you?"


    The man said hoarsely, "I just miss my child so much.”


    "I''ll send you pictures of Jayler. We talked about this before. Whatever we do, we have to put our


    child first.”


    "I know,” the man responded.


    Darcie then said something to make the man feel better before ending the call.


    She contemted and decided to make a call to her friend in Mystonia, just in case...


    Ste was the one driving. Everyone thought she would head straight back to the Saun residence, but


    she detoured to Vinci Rivera.


    Once they arrived, she turned to Keegan, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. She said, "Mr.


    Kane, you can go now.”


    Keegan was at a loss for words. He then looked at the closed gates of the building and pursed his lips,


    "Today is a holiday.”


    “Oh,” Ste said tly. “That''s great. It''s a good time for you to work peacefully. Don''t you love working


    overtime?”

    Wenham and Trevor exchanged nces, each seeing the same thought in each other''s eyes—Keegan


    was in trouble.


    Keegan kept quiet for a while before saying, "I want to celebrate New Year too.”


    Trevor and Wenham were both speechless.
