The madam's panic was not lost to Angeline’s eyes.
Kneeling on the floor, the madam picked up the shattered shards of porcelain.
Angeline sighed. "I'll process the documents for your discharge."
However, when Angeline returned from completing the discharge paperwork, she was met with the sight o f Jack and his henchmen at the hospital room door.
"I'm here to bring you home, Sera.” Now that his dirty secrets had been thrown into the light, Jack decided t o forego his gentlemanly facade to blatantly take hold of Sera from Angeline.
Sera remained quiet as she sat on the bed in complete disregard of the fight between Jack and Angeline.
Like an abandoned puppet, she would follow whoever won.
Angeline, as far as Jack was concerned, was only arrogant because she had Jay backing her up. Now that the two had separated and were on horrible terms, Jack paid her no attention.
What he did not know was that Angeline was the type of person who worked better the stronger the pressure.
"Jack, you shameless old man. My sister has no relation to you whatsoever. As a Severe, I’m bringing
her home today and you can't stop me," Angeline stated angrily.
The corners of Jack's lips tugged into a wretched smirk. ''How much do you think I spent on her? Did you think I wouldn’t claim interest?"
"How much?"
"100 million." Jack knew that as a bankrupted family, the Severes would not be able to liquify 100 million at such short notice.
Angeline shouted at the atrocity, "You might as well rob a bank for that money! All my sister did was eat a few meals with you Areses and you ask me for 100 million?"
Jack smiled silently.
His expression was one that showed it was non-negotiable.
Angeline felt herself fume.
