“Your illegitimate daughter was even born on the same day as me. Jacob, you’re not human. You’re a bastard worse than an animal.”
“Do you think you can just sell the house because you want to?
Do you think the law can’t stop you?”
“I have a share in that house too. If you dare to sell it, I’ll sue you.”
“I can even sue you for the money you’ve spent on Courtney and Josephine all these years and get it back. That’s my mother’s marital property, and as her only daughter, I have the right to inherit it.”
“Thanks for coming to tell me your company is failing. Now I know I have to act fast. Get yourself a good lawyer and wait to see me in
court.”
“You’re not just evil, you’re stupid. Let me give you a friendly
reminder: you shouldn’t be here asking me for money. You should be careful Courtney and Josephine don’t suck you dry and then dump you.”
“A woman like Courtney, if it wasn’t for money, do you think she’d be willing to be the other woman everyone despises just for you?”
“Once you’re drowning in debt, she’ll run faster than anyone.”
After saying her piece, Aveline couldn’t be bothered to look at Jacob’s shocked face. She got up and walked away quickly.

Jacob snapped out of it and yelled, “Aveline, you fucking get back here.”
Aveline ignored him, pulled a hundred–dollar bill from her purse, threw it on the counter, and then walked quickly out of the coffee shop.
It was a good thing she had a habit of keeping a few hundred dollars in cash in her purse. Otherwise, if she had to wait to pay with a QR code payment, Jacob would have definitely held her up and embarrassed her.
Jacob chased after her, out of the coffee shop. “Aveline, you fucking stop right there.”
“I’m your father, you can’t just not care about what happens to me.”
“I can sue you too.”
Without looking back, Aveline said, “Go ahead and sue. You’re not a man if you don’t.”
Jacob was a man, and he quickly caught up to Aveline, reaching out to grab her.
Aveline shook his hand off. “If you touch me again, I’ll scream, and I’ll even call the police.”
“I’m your father. The police won’t do anything even if you call them.”
“Is that so? Did you forget that I had Devin, Vincent, and Eileen locked up for a few days?”

Jacob froze, genuinely a little scared.
He said, “I won’t touch you, but you’re not allowed to leave.”
“I know you’re an architect now, making hundreds of millions from those big projects with Crestmark and the, so it’s only right you give me two hundred million for my debts. Consider it payback for raising
you
Aveline said coldly, “I think you should hurry home and take stock of Courtney’s assets, before you go bankrupt and she takes the money and runs.”
Jacob glared at Aveline, “She’s pregnant with my child, why would she run?
I know you hate Courtney, that you can’t stand her.”
“Tell you what, you give me the two hundred million, and after Courtney has the baby, I’ll make her move out. I won’t let her live in the house your mom bought.”
“Then you can move back home.”
“Aveline, I’m already doing you a favor by not forcing you to return those paintings you stole, because you’re my daughter. Don’t push me.
Just then, the pedestrian light across the street turned green. Aveline ignored Jacob and walked quickly across.
Jacob hurried after her, muttering, “I’m your father. I’m bankrupt and being chased by creditors, so you have to support me. Do you
understand that?”

“If you don’t help me pay my debts, I’ll have no choice but to go to the and tell them what an ungrateful daughter you are.”
Aveline ignored him and walked all the way to the entrance of her residential complex. She stopped, turned to face Jacob, and said coldly,
“It’s actually easy to get me to help you pay your debts. We just need to completely liquidate my mother’s assets and your assets, including everything you’ve given Courtney over the years. Then we’ll handle it legally. Give me what’s mine, and I won’t ask for a penny more of what isn’t. You can use your share to pay off your debts. I’m sure it’ll be enough.”

When is the novel ending? It’s so unnecessarily long… not a single intimacy or connection just fighting and bickering from the beginning to end...
