My Four Miraculous Treasures

Edith didn't want to give up, but she couldn't even retaliate when it came to Jasper.

She walked out of the room with hatred, anger, and reluctance in her eyes. The fear of having to serve jail time also surged within her, creating a mixture of complex feelings.

Tears began to stream down her face and her chest heaved violently from the anger, fear, and refusal to give up.

As the bodyguards led her to the car, Edith requested to call her father.

The bodyguards didn't stop her.

Edith called her father, Zachary Price. When she heard her father's kind and deep voice, she could no longer hold her emotions back and cried out, "Dad..."

Zachary's heart ached when he heard his daughter crying. "Edith, what's wrong? Tell me slowly. It's alright. I'm here so it's going to be alright."

Although Zachary had no idea what happened, his daughter had always been strong-willed and resilient. She never cried easily.

Yet, she was crying so helplessly now.

Zachary's heart ached as if a string was tugging at it.

Something major must have happened for his strong-willed daughter to start crying.

Edith calmed herself down before telling her father what happened and also the fact that Jasper was handing her over to the police.

Zachary was shocked and worried upon hearing this. He comforted her saying, "Edith, cooperate with Jasper's bodyguards and endure it for now. I'll think of a way to get you out as soon as possible."

Jasper was the figurehead of Hughes Corporation and held the highest authority in Buscen City. He was known to be ruthless and governed with an iron fist.

After he took over Hughes Corporation, he rapidly acquired many companies, causing many executives to go bankrupt and be burdened with debt.

Meanwhile, Hughes Corporation developed into a world-renowned conglomerate in just five years. Everyone in the business world shuddered at the mention of Jasper's name.

Yet, Edith had betrayed him, deceived him, and also handed Hughes Corporation's design over to their competitor.

It was only natural for Jasper to be furious and send her to prison without any hesitation!

Edith had provoked the lion by bearding it in its den, incurring a disastrous consequence.

However, Edith was still Zachary'snoveldrama

daughter. He couldn't just watch as

to suffer.

Edith felt slightly better upon hearing her father's words. She wiped her tears and said sadly, "I couldn't win

his heart after ten years. He's even doing this to me. Dad, he's really heartless."

"Maybe he's not interested in women," Zachary guessed in an attempt to comfort her.

Edith smiled bitterly. "No, he likes women alright. He's doing this to me because of that woman."

She felt reluctant to have lost to Willow. She couldn't accept it either.

Zachary kept quiet. To think that Jasper had fallen out with Edith for the sake of a woman.

His daughter was merely being passionate, but she ended up having to go to jail.

Zachary felt aggrieved for Edith. He said, "I'll help you. Be good and don't cause trouble. Wait for me."

By the time Edith hung up, they had arrived at the police station. She got out with the bodyguards.

Inside the private room, Samantha

was still collapsed on the floor, trembling in fright. Her teeth were chattering in fear after she saw Edith being taken away. She could no longer feel the pain in her face and body because the terror had

overwhelmed her other senses.
