Once back home, Caleb brought Ava straight to his villa. They barely stepped foot inside when they spotted Jasmine lounging on the living room couch, eyes fixed on them.
“What are you doing here, Mom?“
Hearing that, Jasmine, who was eating fruit, stopped. “What do you mean? Can’t I visit you?”
Caleb led Ava in. Ava looked at the displeased Jasmine and said in a small voice, “Mrs. Mercer.”
Jasmine nodded and said directly to Ava. “I want to talk to my son. Ms. Davenport. Can you leave for a moment?”
Ava felt a little offended, but she had to pretend to be considerate. “Well… I…
“What? Do you think I’m picking on you, Ms. Davenport Jasmine didn’t give her a chance to speak. Seeing her stare at Caleb with the grievance, she gave her a warning look.
Caleb didn’t want to see them get into a fight, so he stroked Ava’s hands and said, “Wait for me in the garden, Avy. I’ll be there soon.

Even someone as seasoned as Jasmine, who had seen it all with the Mercer family, felt a twinge of fear at that hidden vicious streak.

who treats her better. Just marry whoever you want, but don’t take her to my place
you don’t deserve Evelyn. Fortunately, Evelyn is with someone
While Jasmine was walking towards the door in anger, Caleb realized something and asked with a frown. “What do you
