Chapitre 674: Chapter 673

Jake and Melissa were stunned.

They had long known that Oliver favored the woman outside and even preferred the daughter of the mistress. However, they hadn't anticipated that, in front of his son, Oliver would choose Selena.

Selena, hearing this, managed a slight smile, though she kept her lips pressed together. She gently advised, "Dad, don't speak out of anger. Jake is the one who can carry on the family name. Jake, you should make amends. Dad's just trying to scare you!"

Jake glared coldly at Selena, his jaw tightening. He sneered, "I'd rather not have a father like this!"

Selena immediately protested, "How can you speak like that? Dad has high hopes for you, and it's all for your own good… You're really hurting his feelings!"

"High hopes? The most I've ever heard from him are his criticisms. To him, I'm nothing but a failure! A useless person!"

Jake sighed bitterly. "If that's the case, why does he even need me?"
