Meanwhile, in the Jacobson residence, Rowena sat on the couch in the living room while flipping through a stack of photographs. She mumbled to herself, "Ms. Harrington has good qualities, while Ms. Wellerson is as pretty as a fairy. There's also Ms. Webb, who just graduated with a master's degree from Jordanville University. She seems to be the studious type, I like her a lot."
Rowena lifted her head and smiled at Stephen as she asked, "Look at these photos, Stephen. Which one do you like?"
Stephen's gaze was dark, and he wasn't paying attention to Rowena. When he locked gazes with Tessa in the garden earlier, he had seen how pale she looked. Her lips were drained of all color, making him wonder if she was sick.
"Earth to Stephen," Rowena called while raising her voice, the smile on her face dimming a little. "I'm talking to you. What are you daydreaming about?"
Stephen reined in his thoughts and directed his gaze toward her. "What is it?"
Unhappily, Rowena placed down the photos. She adjusted the silk shawl around her shoulders and said in a languid tone, "Jocelyn Webb just graduated with her master's degree. I met her a few days ago. She's pretty, and she has a gentle disposition. You should visit the Webbs with your mother and get to know her better."
His gaze darkened even more as he sat on the couch. "I don't have any free time."
She was displeased. Her brow was furrowed as she glared at him. "You're on holiday, yet you don't have free time? You've been busy all year, so you should let yourself relax when you're on break. Listen to me. Visit the Webbs with Sophia."
Jacqueline felt annoyed after hearing how Rowena was trying to set Stephen up with another woman. It had taken her so much work to chase Tessa away, yet Rowena was trying to rush Stephen into another arranged marriage?
The Jacobsons had only broken off their arrangement with the Yates not too long ago.

Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
