Love On Ice: Don’t Leave Me, My Charming Liar

Chapter 263: Her father had persistently advised patience. Yet, Callie feared that prolonged inactivity would lead the Brooks family to disregard her completely. It had been days since she last saw Ethan, and there had been no signs of movement from the Brooks family. She deemed them all weak. "Why then can't Hayes be brought out?" The man hesitated considerably before responding, "Your father has advised against your meeting with Hayes for now." Callie shut her eyes, attempting to calm the brewing storm of emotions inside her.

The Higgins family had been in chaos lately, and Brevard's actions served as a clear warning for her to stay in line. Johnny had already taken care of the two men at her villa, and now she found herself unable to take any action against Hayes either. Unable to release her anger, Callie could only suppress her fury as she left. Back at the Higgins family home, Flavia watched as Callie stormed in, her face contorted with fury, and let out a resigned sigh. "Where have you been?" Callie snapped back, "Nowhere important." Flavia's brow furrowed in concern.

"Lately, you've been spending your time either at bars or hotels. You're my daughter; I'm well aware of your actions. Are you-" "Are you neglecting yourself now? Have you forgotten my teachings about not letting emotions rule you?" Ļ∆ťèśţ ¢ΔÞţεЯŠ ¡η Ġałиoνєļş.çø₥ Callie paused, her head gradually bowing. Admittedly, she was caught in a downward spiral, her life unraveling. She simply couldn't accept defeat. Yet, the constant counsel to be patient left her feeling powerless. What was she supposed to do? "Mom, I want to handle this mess myself, but Dad keeps insisting I wait.

What should I do?" Callie's voice cracked, her eyes brimming with frustration. Flavia's heart softened immediately upon seeing her daughter's distress. She knew it was all because of that woman, Nyla. However, Flavia's anger flared as she saw her daughter so defeated. She embraced Callie, soothing her with gentle pats on her back. "I know it's hard. That woman lacks any impressive background; the Brooks family would never truly accept her. Ethan's just caught up, but it will pass. Your father will sort this out. If you back down now, you're conceding defeat." . . .
