Chapter 643 You Rascal
Jolene charged at Jenny, ready to beat her up, but Jenny was unruffled, showing no
intention of dodging.
Graham slammed the table, and Jolene was shocked by the loud sound. She stopped in
her tracks and didn't get to Jenny.
"You rascal!” he roared. "Jenny is your sister!"
"I don't have a sister! I'm my mom's only daughter!” Perhaps, she had been emboldened
out of anger or her strong refusal against marrying Brandon Britt. She talked back to
Graham despite fearing him.
The scowl on his face deepened. "If you dare speak in this manner in public, I'd put you in
your place!"
"Why can't I say that? She's not my sister anyway!" Jolene was enraged as well. "Have you
ever given me any attention since she joined the family? We're both your daughters! How
could you play favorites?”
"How could you compare yourself to Jenny? Do you think you're comparable?" he bellowed
as he grew increasingly irritated by Jolene's behavior. His words were jarring to Jolene. She
glared at him with unbridled resentment in her eyes, which he picked up easily. "Oh,
you're rebelling now, huh? Did I raise an ungrateful daughter?"
Jolene wanted to retort but was held back by Rowena. "This is a sudden decision. Jo and I
need more time to think it over."
"There's nothing to consider. The engagement party will be in a week. You just have to
show up on time," Graham instructed them. It was not a question but an announcement.
Rowena couldn't stand him anymore. "Graham Walter, you'd better not cross a line!"
"If you're in my family, you need to listen to me." He didn't back down. He knew the
reason behind Rowena's impudence. He once had regard for her out of consideration of
the Glasses, but he did not need to do so anymore. Since he was working with the
Windsors to seal the fate of the Glasses, there was no reason to fear them anymore.
She pointed at him shakily. "Graham Walter! Just wait and see!" With that, she dragged
Jolene away with her.
After they left, Graham turned to Brandon. "Any objection to having the engagement in a
week?"
"No." Brandon wouldn't have minded even if he were asked to marry Jolene next week.
Graham nodded, feeling glad that Brandon was at least more sensible than Jolene.
Brandon left after the discussion, leaving Graham and Jolene in the guest room. Graham
thought that Jenny was quiet because she was upset by Jolene's words, and he comforted

her, "Don't take it to heart. To me, you're the daughter of the Walters." 1
"I'm fine. Don't worry." Jenny wouldn't take Jolene's words personally. Moreover, she didn't
care if she was part of the Walters. Even if she weren't, it wouldn't affect her much.
However, Graham took her indifference as being thoughtful. He thought she insisted she
was fine because she didn't want to worry him. That made him feel sorrier for her. He
decided it was the best decision to get Jolene married to stop her from harassing Jenny at
home.
Later, Jenny parted with Graham and retired to her room. Instead of sleeping, she was
thinking about Alec. She couldn't wrap her head around his sudden change. How could he
confess his love to her only to take it back so soon? How could that happen?
A text arrived, interrupting her thoughts. Alfred texted her the information he had
gathered on Alec and the Fausts. He followed up with another, "It looks like I stand a
chance to contest for the heir of the Fausts.” After all, Alfred was biologically related to the
Fausts.
