After a brief pause, Caitlin finally stated their stand. “Mr. Cornelius, we don't plan on

leaving.”

Keenan's eyes widened in surprise. “You don't plan to leave?”

“Yeah,” Joyce responded.

The corner of Keenan's lips twitch. “If you don't go, what are you going to do about

Stanley? He's already found you, and what if—”

“Don't worry.” Joyce broke into a smile. “We have discussed this and come to the

conclusion that he can't hurt us as long as we stand up against him together. We are sick

of moving all the time. It's just so exhausting.”

Even though Stanley understood where they were coming from, he didn't agree with it. “I

know moving is tiring, but are you really capable of challenging Stanley?”

Joyce turned to look at Caitlin, who let out a sigh.

“Mr. Cornelius, I understand your concerns. But Joyce and I have made our decision and

stand strongly by it. Besides, if we were to continue running, it would just end up as a

vicious cycle. Living under such circumstances has taken its toll on us, so we have chosen

to fight him. In victory, our family will take back our lives. If we lose—”

“We won't lose and can't afford to,” Joyce interrupted through her gritted teeth. “After

what happened just now, I don't think Stanley is unbeatable.”

Faced with the resolute mother-daughter duo, Keenan had no other choice but to reply in

resignation, “I understand. But the decision isn't mine to make. I'll report this to Mr.

Thompson and see what he says.”

“Okay. Do what you need to. In the meantime, I'll let Nat know,” Joyce replied.

Keenan nodded in response. “Okay. In that case, we'll help you carry your luggage back

inside.”

“Thank you.” Caitlin couldn't be anymore grateful.

With that, Keenan ordered his man to bring their luggage back inside.

Caitlin gave Joyce's hand a tug. “Joyce, let's give Nat a call and tell her our decision.”

“All right,” Joyce agreed, cognizant that it was time to do so.

Both of them returned to the house and gave Natalie a call.

Over at the latter's end, it was around nine in the evening.

She was in the midst of a video call with Shane when Joyce's call interrupted her. When

she saw who it was, she quickly informed Shane, “Darling, I need to take Joyce's call now.

I'll call you back later.”

Despite feeling upset, Shane didn't object.

After all, he knew that Joyce was living under precarious circumstances and must have

called over something important.

“All right. Go ahead,” Shane responded.

Natalie flashed a smile at him before ending their video call. Subsequently, she answered

Joyce's. “Hello, Joyce, how is it? Have Shane's men arrived?”

Joyce glanced at the door. “They have.”

Natalie sighed in relief. “That's good. Did you get into the car?”

Joyce shook her head with an apologetic expression. “Not yet.”

“Not yet?” Natalie's brows knitted. “How come? Is there something wrong with the

vehicle?”

“It's not that.” Joyce bit her lip. “We are the issue. Nat, after discussing with my mom,

we've decided not to leave.”

“Why?” Natalie's eyes widened in surprise.

Joyce lowered her head sheepishly. “We want to stay here. Moving constantly is just too

tiring and troublesome.”

“But Stanley has already gotten in touch and will probably find you soon. You—”

“He's already come.”

“What? He found you?”

“Yeah.”

“Then are you all right?” Natalie sprang to her feet.

Little did she expect Stanley to have already located Joyce.

Nevertheless, she knew deep down that it was a matter of time before it happened,

especially after he had gained the means to contact Joyce.
