Shattered Vows Shining Comeback

Chapter 37 Past Behavior Exposed

Meanwhile, it was all doom and gloom at the Hall Manor, Jake slumped on the couch with a dreary expression. Hehad: just come home from bailing Caitlin out.

Although he had immediately paid for the losses incurred by Gwen, Caitlin might still have to serve a jail sentence due to the huge financial losses in the case as well as Gwen’s refusal to settle. According to the attorney’s estimates, Curlin might have to be in

for at least three years,

Sarah, who had just come around, looked stunned when she learned that her daughter might have to serve a three

year sentence.

“Jake, listen to me. Caitlin cannot go to fall!” Voice shaking in disbelief, she continued, “Caitlin is so young! She can’t live with that bunch of pests in jail. She’ll have a breakdown!

“Son, talk to Gwen. Back down if you need to. Let her gloat about the win for a few days, and we’ll coax her into settling in private. How does that sound? Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Sarah’s tone had taken on a pleading turn. It was at this moment she realized she had to surrender.

Frowning hard, Jake snapped at her, “Caitlin has crossed a line by ganging up with gangsters to destroy the belongings of others.”

Jake wasn’t against negotiating with Gwen, but the problem laid with Gwen, who refused to discuss anything and wanted Caitlin behind bars.

“What do you mean? Do you want Caitlin in jail at such a young age?” Sarah growled.

“It’s time she learns a lesson.”

“Caitlin hired gangsters to thrash Gwen’s store in a moment of anger because Gwen bullied her! It was all Gwen’s fault, to begin with. Caitlin is the real victim!” Sarah grew increasingly desperate as she argued.

She realized she had to pull off something even harsher as Jake didn’t seem swayed by her pleas.

Flinging the windows open, she sat on the ledge with one leg dangling outside the window. She threatened him, “I’ll jump from here right now if you refuse to talk to Gwen. I’ll die in front of your eyes!”

Slenna was horrified by Sarah’s actions. She hurried over and grabbed Sarah’s hand, crying, “Jake, hold your mom

back!”

“That’s enough!” Jake let out a deep growl, and Sarah jolted in shock. She had never seen Jake behave in this way.

She sensibly pulled herself back from the ledge and sat on the couch.

Seeing that, Sienna stood at the side and said nothing. Jake’s pent–up anger from the dinner party finally boiled over

at this moment.

He hissed, “I’ve looked into the incident. Caitlin started it all by insulting Gwen in Gwen’s boutique. Gwen kicked her and her friends out after learning they had bought their tickets from scalpers.”

Jake tossed a recording pen onto the desk. “The pen carries the recording of interviews. Statt members working for the Hall family in the past three years revealed how you and Caitlin treated Gwen like a servant at home.

“She was yelled at, and she was forced to cook and do laundry for the whole family, including handwashing your lingerie!”

Sarah pouted when her terrible behavior was exposed. She muttered under her breath, “Gwen deserved it. She should have given her future life a second thought before shamelessly forcing her way into our family.”

‘Is that how you see Gwen?” Jake was aghast at the ugly nature behind the facade of his perfect family.

In the past three years, Gwen endured the crushing secretarial workload during the day and came home to Sarah and Callin’s attitude and abuse dally.

However, Gwen had never complained about it in front of Jake, and he rarely paid any attention to her life.

“Not only did you bully her at home, but you destroyed her stuff at her boutique, Caitlin will get herself into more trouble if she keeps wanting to get her way. Three years of jail will be a good lesson for her.”

Jake decided to send Caitlin to jail. Sarah wanted to defend Caitlin, but she clenched her jaw and plopped on the couch indignantly when she met the chilling gaze in Jake’s eyes.

He loosened his tie irritably. Sienna, keeping her silence, felt the crushing weight of his death stare.

He began, “Why did you pretend that you had no idea about Gwen’s identity when you were in the know all along? Not only that, you sent your people to stalk her and take photos of her.

Sienna had no words. She didn’t expect Jake to get to the bottom of that incident.

He remarked coldly, “I’ll let slide the trending topics scandal.”

Sienna silently heaved a relieved sigh.
