NovelTrueChapter 1264:
Jercrossed his arms, waiting. Jesse and Nina watched too, curious now.
“You know your mom's struggling, right?” Kevin began, clearly aiming for a soft spot. “If you two kids move in
with me, I'll set your mom up in a villa near my place. And I'll give her fifty million dollars.”
Jerhesitated. Over the years, their mom had done everything she could to take care of him and Jasper—
holding down a full-tjob while juggling side gigs just to make ends meet.
She'd stay up late working, then get up at the crack of dawn to do it all over again.
“She can visit you anytime,” Kevin added.
“Don’t agree to it!” Nina suddenly said, her sweet voice cutting through the tension like a blade. “He’s lying!”
Kevin frowned. “I'm not lying.”

If it were just a villa Donna had bought herself, selling it wouldn't be a big deal. Alerith had no shortage of rich
buyers. But coming from Kevin? With his controlling personality, there was no way he’d make that process
simple.
“Mr. Wilson,” Jesse said casually, his eyes sharp, “instead of giving her a house, why not just give her straight
cash?” Jesse was luring him in. “If you give Donna two hundred million, Jercan go live with you.”
Jerome's head snapped toward Jesse. What was he saying? Why would he have to move in with Kevin?

Kevin squinted at Jesse. “You have the authority to say that?”
“If you agree,” Jesse replied, completely calm, “I can help convince Jerome.” There was something in his tone—
quiet, assured, and oddly commanding. Like Ellis.
Jerfrowned, about to speak, but Nina gave his hand a gentle squeeze and smiled at him.
