Joseph Thompson had originally planned to pick up Jaylene Ziel from the hospital after work and take her out for dinner. Then, he would try to persuade and brainwash her into remarrying him.
However, just as he was about to leave the office, he received a phone call from Thompson Manor, asking him to come back as soon as possible after work.
He didn't dare to delay since this issue was caused by him - avoiding it was not a solution, and he had never intended to avoid it in the first place.
So, after work, he drove directly back to Pure Waterside Thompson Manor, postponing his plans with Jaylene Ziel until tomorrow.
As he walked into the courtyard, Joseph Thompson immediately sensed that something was seriously wrong tonight.
"Second young master, you're back?" Aunt Eloise approached him, giving him a meaningful look as a warning.
Joseph nodded, scanning the area: "Where's grandmother? Doesn't she like to enjoy the evening breeze and watch the sunset in the yard at this time?"
