and looked at the phone.

With his emotions under tight control, Jayden demanded sternly, “Track Elyse’s location. | need a full report on
her activities within half an hour.”
“Yes, sir,” Tobin replied and exited the office.

“I will not do it,” Pearce stated firmly. “Can’t you just leave Elyse alone?”
The sharpness in Felicia’s eyes deepened, pressing on Pearce as if it were a physical force. “I am aware of your
fondness for her, but our family has its rules. Now that she’s back with us, she must conform.”
Felicia’s stubbornness left Pearce speechless. He massaged his temples, trying to explain calmly, “Grandma,
Elyse isn’t really a Benson. She has shown no interest in being part of our family.”
Felicia dismissed the remark with a sneer. “That's ridiculous! She’s back with us now, which makes her a Benson.
Isn't her father, my own son?”
