Chapter 1117: Tasha was surprised to see that both Joyce and Caiden had becwell-behaved. But Jack? He was utterly fearless.
He turned the living room into his personal playground, dashing around and purposely obstructing Daniela's view of the TV.
Joyce chuckled smugly from the sidelines, fully aware that no matter how strict Daniela could be, she wouldn't lay a finger on the boy. After suffering the loss of her own child, Daniela had a soft spot for kids, and her patience stretched far beyond reason.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoyce saw an opportunity in that weakness, shaping Jack into the untouchable little troublemaker.
It all started with defying Daniela-Joyce's ultimate plan was for Jack to slowly establish himself as the true ruler of the household. Hidden in the dim light, Joyce flashed Jack a discreet thumbs-up.
Jack caught sight of her approval and grinned mischievously before upping the stakes-climbing onto the sofa, shoes and all. Tasha's gaze flickered to Daniela. Even in their brief ttogether, she had noticed Daniela's obsession with cleanliness.
But despite Jack's antics, Daniela remained still, making no move to stop him. Tasha mused, "That figures. Mothers always have a tender spot for children, reluctant to be too stern with them." But if kids weren't corrected early, they'd grow impossible to handle later. With a quiet sigh, Tasha concluded that Daniela was still too young, too unseasoned in such matters.
But before she could dwell on it, the living room lights flickered and dimmed.
A heartbeat later, the entire room was swallowed by darkness. Joyce spotted Jack's little stunt and let out a satisfied laugh.
Tasha exhaled, ready to switch the lights back on, until she noticed Daniela rising slowly from the sofa. The TV remained the sole source of light, its flickering glow dancing eerie shadows across the walls.
Latest at gVlnovesTasha watched as Daniela caught Jack's wrist, her eyes dark and unreadable. "Do you have a death wish?" Daniela's hand lifted. For a split second, everyone braced for the blow, but instead, a sharp bang shattered the silence. Her palm crashed down-not on Jack, but against the glass table before her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack gawked in stunned silence, his face rigid as the flickering light cast eerie shadows over Daniela's emotionless features, making her seem even more chilling.
Daniela let go of his collar. And as if on cue, the lights flooded the room with brightness.
Without another word, Daniela strode past Jack, her steps slow and deliberate as she climbed the stairs.
Joyce stood frozen, still processing the moment when a sharp sound om shattered the silence. The glass table exploded into shards, its fragments scattering across the floor with a sharp, nerve-rattling crack.
In the hushed stillness of the night, the sound carried ag eerie, almost foreboding weight.
