Chapter 1464

Steven pulled out his lighter and lit a cigarette for Hannah’s dad. “You’ve been on the road all day, and must be beat. Why don’t you take a break?”

Jeo took a deep drag and let out a long puff of smoke. “Hannah had a terrible accident, she almost kicked the bucket, and we only found out today. You think we could get any shut-eye?”

Steven said, “I’m really sorry!”

Jeo looked at Steven and asked, “Do you fancy my daughter?”

Steven nodded, “I do.”

Jeo said, “If you do, then let her go, and let me take her back to our hometown.”

Steven said, “I hope Hannah can stay. I hope she can remember me.”

Steven knew very well that once Hannah was taken back to their hometown by the Ableson family, she might never remember him again, and she might not even know a man named Steven ever existed in her life.

Jeo said, “You just said you like her, so ask yourself. Do you really like her or do you like the feeling of having her under your control.”

Steven was surprised by Jeo’s words, but he quickly said, “I like her.”

Jeo said, “Like her? But you don’t look like you do.”

Steven stayed silent.

Jeo asked again, “Under what circumstances would you let her go?”

Steven said, “Unless I’m six feet under, I ain’t letting go.”

Jeo smirked, “Are you threatening me?”

Steven said, “That’s not what I meant.”

Jeo said, “I know about your plan to remarry Hannah. Her mom told me. Let me tell you, unless Hannah agrees, you’ll have to get my blessing first, otherwise, it ain’t happening.”

Steven was taken aback by Jeo’s firmness.

Jeo continued, “If you really care for my daughter, and you can treat her right, I don’t mind leaving her with you. You keep saying you like my daughter, but you hurt her so much, so how can I trust you with her?”

Steven said, “That’s in the past, in the future…”

Jeo said, “If you really like her, let her go, and let her find her own happiness. Of course, I won’t stop you from pursuing her, but do it like a normal guy chasing a girl, not by using your power and influence.”

Steven said, “Jeo…”

Jeo said, “I know you won’t let us leave, Hannah can’t leave if you don’t let go, but can you bear to see her unhappy?”

Steven didn’t answer. He didn’t want to. He was the one who suggested the divorce because he was afraid.

Afraid of losing her.

Jeo said, “Think about it. When you have your answer, let me know tomorrow.”

Steven said, “Dad, no need to wait till tomorrow, I can give you a definite answer now. Once her wounds are fully healed, you can take her back. I promise I won’t use my power to pressure her anymore.”

Jeo raised his hand, gently wiping a tear from his eye, he sighed with relief and said, “Thank you!”

Steven said, “Jeo…”

Jeo interrupted him, “I’m glad you could spend Christmas with me this year.”

Steven said, “Jeo, she…”

Jeo said, “We’ll take good care of her. You’re not related to her anymore. You don’t have to worry about her.”

Steven didn’t say a word.
