"Mom, you go ahead to the hotel, I have something to take care of and will drive over later." After what happened yesterday, Kiara no longer wanted to keep avoiding Jojo's father.
"Then try not to miss the start of the banquet—should Olivia stay with you?" Kiara's mother knew Olivia was trained and could knock someone down with a kick if needed.
Kiara shook her head, "No need."
At that moment, Jojo's father looked nothing like the man with the prestigious air of his first appearance, obviously due to his limping leg. He seemed extremely haggard.
Watching Kiara's family emerge, Jojo's father's lips quivered.
He remembered how Kiara's mother had tricked him that day, standing upstairs talking to that old lady who seemed to have dementia, until he passed out from heatstroke!
This older girl, she really knew how to scam someone...
"Dr. Clark, I came here specifically to see you! Can we talk?" Jojo's father gave Kiara an apologetic smile.
