When Hannah remained unmoved, Johanna shifted her pleading to Jalen.


    She looked up at him with wide, expectant eyes.


    “Jalen! Please believe me.


    I really know my mistake.Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    I promise not to do it again!


    You’ve helped to raise me.


    I’m really scared, Jalen.


    I won’t be able to take it if you turn your back on me, too.


    Please, Jalen!”


    Johanna edged closer and tried to grab his hand.


    “Jalen, I’m begging you! Please speak to Grandpa on my behalf! I will kneel out in the yard if that’s what he wants.


    I won’t get up until he forgives me!”


    Sure enough, Jalen’s faltered.


    Johanna was right, he had watched her grow up, so he had a soft spot for her.


    Swallowing the lump in his throat, he turned to Hannah and said, “Hannah, I know I don’t have the right to say this, but she has been under Grandpa’s care all her life.


    ”


    Hannah understood what he meant.


    She took a deep breath and nced at Johanna.


    “If you insist on kneeling, then I won’t stop you.


    Let’s hope for your sake that Grandpa finds it in his heart to forgive you.


    ”


    With that, she walked past Jalen and entered the vi without a backward nce.


    Jalen had to stay back to deal with Christy, anyway.


    Edwin, on the other hand, hurried after Hannah.


    “Hannah, if she keeps on kneeling for days, Grandpa will end up forgiving her eventually,” he grumbled.


    “He already put you in charge of the matter.


    Why don’t you just send her away for good?”

    Hannah sighed.


    This boy was still too innocent for the real world.


    “You said it yourself, Grandpa will eventually forgive her.


    Despite everything, she is still a member of the White family.


    If that’s the case, then she might as well suffer in the interim.


    ”


    Edwin nodded as he caught on her intentions.


    “Say, Hannah.


    What about my problem? You’ve seen how that lunatic, Jenny, keeps on pestering me!”


    Hannah paused and turned to pat his shoulder.


    “How about I send you abroad so that you can keep a low profile for a couple of years or so? It’s the best option I can think of.


    ”


    “No way!” Edwin said indignantly as he pointed a finger at his face.


    “Why should I run away like some coward?”


    “suit yourself, then.
