Chapter 704 Defeat Magic With Magic
As if worried about offending Wynter, Jolene explained, “Sorry, Wynter. I have used the wrong words, but I meant no malice. I only wanted to tell Mr. Quinnell Senior I am serious about Al.”
While speaking, Jolene bowed to Fabian sincerely.
Compared to Yvette, Jolene was harder to read because she was so serious that one could hardly find any fault with her.
Fabian, who was choked up earlier, could breathe smoother now.
He could not describe what had happened all those years ago because Jolene’s actions were rather
defiant.
Albert would not believe it if Fabian had told him about them.
It was wrong of him to give Jolene a sum of money at the time, but he had wanted to test her tenacity. The matter had become troublesome now, and he should not have listened to Tobias‘ idea back then.
Now that it had come to this, he was the one in the wrong.
Fabian turned to look at Tobias, who guiltily turned his handsome face to the side slightly.
How could he have predicted that Jolene would still come back?
At that time, Fabian had asked him how to dispel a woman’s desire for a man. Back then, Tobias had just accepted a role in his first idol drama, so he told Fabian to give money to the woman.
He never expected it to be so bothersome so many years later.
If she kept the money then, could she still come back to choose Albert now? Wouldn’t it be free–riding?
Tobias propped himself up on a corner of the table, ready to stand up. He was afraid that Fabian would vent his anger at him by hitting him with his cane.
“Where are you going? Sit down.” Though Fabian had no control over Jolene, he still had control over his
own grandson.
Tobias rubbed his nose bridge. “I want to look for Albert so that they can talk. Isn’t that right, Jolene?”
“I do not want Al to know about this.” Jolene dropped her gaze, her long hair grazing her shoulders. “He suffered a great blow when I left him years ago.
“Just let him think that I left because of money. This would be better for Mr. Quinnell Senior.
“As for the other matters, I will slowly mend them. You do not have to agree to any of this, Mr. Quinnell Senior. I will continue to prove myself in the future.”
It was a wonderful statement from Jolene.
In the past, Fablan would have felt uneasy, but he had Wynter now, and she was on his side.

Even silly Tobias was willing to share his burdens, so Fabian had nothing to get emotional over.
“Sure.” Fabian leaned on his dragon cane calmly. “My grandchildren are all adults and have their own
thoughts.
