Cyrus said the words, but that calm, pretty face still shed in his mind. The moment he spoke, even he started doubting himself.
“And you said she told people to hit you? Funny, because I heard you were the one bold enough to try running her over with your car. You wanted her gone. Isn’t that right?”
Cyrus’s voice turned sharp and his face hard.
Jolie froze. She snapped to attention like a kid caught stealing, tears hanging on her swollen
cheeks.
“Daddy! Who’s your real daughter? Why are you taking her side?”
“Don’t start that. When you’re wrong, youin I’m not on your
side.”
Cyrus let out a low snort. He already knew every trick Jolie pulled.
But Jolie caught something else in his tone; there was room for her to act spoiled. Her up. She stepped forward slowly, testing the waters.

Cyrus didn’t stop her. He only lifted a brow. She caught that tiny reaction, instantly perked up, and hooked her arm through his. “Daddy, this wasn’t even my fault. Tess was just in my way.”
He turned his head and stared at her smug expression, paired with her adorable eyes act. He was helpless. Cyrus flicked her forehead and sighed. “You little brat!”
and cute
His tone had softenedpletely. Jolie leaned in andined, “I mean, yes, I ran the car over her, but she’s fine! And she asks someone to beat me. You’re my dad. How could you help someone else?”
Her voice dropped, and she blinked her eyes as she shook his arm.
“Enough. I’ve already had someone warn her. But at the end of the day, you were still the one in the wrong. Let’s see if you keep running wild after this.”
Cyrus shot her a sharp look.
The moment Jolie heard he warned Tess, her eyes lit up. “Daddy! I knew it! I’m your favorite person! But Daddy-”
She tilted her head, suddenly looking sweet and harmless, nothing like the fierce girl Tess had faced earlier.

Her eyes sparkled with a mix of excitement and mischief. “You really warned Tess?”
Cyrus caught the prying tone and raised a brow. “Want to know the details<b>?</b><b>” </b>
Jolie nodded so fast she looked like a bobblehead.

Cyrus gave a cold snort and told her everything. How he ran into trouble at the hospital and how he even went to the Ember Residence afterward.
Jolie’s eyes went wide. “That slut doesn’t know her ce! You went in person, and she still acted like you owed her something?”
Cyrus’s expression darkened. “She does have a temper,” he snorted. “But I wonder if she has the power to back it up.”
Jolie perked up at once, her eyes shining and lips curled, as she watched the gloomy look on her father’s face.
Tess had crossed her father. That meant Tess was in for a very bad time.
“Oh, your mom already heard about this,” Cyrus added, giving Jolie a warning nce.
“What?”
Jolie’s smile dropped instantly.
In their house, Sienna Reagen was the real one in charge. Jolie never expected this mess to reach her.
The current leader of the Reagan Corporation was also her mother. Sienna was a powerhouse who practically lived on airnes, juggling deals across continents. Jolie hardly saw her at all.
Even Cyrus’s name came from her; shebined both family names and gave him a local
name.
“That’s what happens when you act without thinking,” Cyrus said, tapping Jolie lightly on the forehead.
Then his gaze sharpened with meaning. “But your moming here might actually help you. Didn’t you want revenge?”
Jolie’s gloomy face lit up instantly.
Right! If her mom stepped in, dealing with someone like Tess would be nothing.

Jolie’s heartbeat sped up. She looked at Cyrus with bright, eager eyes, clearly wanting to ask something more.
But Cyrus saw straight through her. “Don’t even start about Steven.”
Jolie froze. Steven was one of the top researchers in the world now, someone every nation protected. Were they trying to crush him with their power? Impossible.
Jolie’s excitement deted. She lowered her voice and said, “Okay.”
“You’d better behave,” Cyrus warned. “When your mother arrives, don’t make her angry.”
Jolie trudged toward the next room with her shoulders slumped. But the moment she remembered Tess was about to get punished, her mood bounced right back.
Ember Residence.
“Tess really said that?”
Henry’s face turned ashen.
He had brought Tess back because he wanted the Larsons‘ power, status, and wealth. He swallowed humiliation to wee her home.
And now? No benefits but only trouble.
Nadine nodded quickly, exaggerating every word. “She said you’re nothing! She hade home, but
get to control her!”

Henry’s expression twisted even darker. He mmed his palm on the coffee table. “Brat! Why didn’t Jolie finish her off when she ran her over with the car?”
