Chapter 1665
Jadon sat down after hearing Molly’s words.
Molly poured some tea for him. "Mr. Scott, have some tea first.”
"Okay.” Jadon picked up the teacup and took a sip. He looked like he was thinking of something before he continued, "Molly, where's Eaton right now?"
This was a question that Molly was expecting.
Molly and Sean looked at each other, but didn't give an answer.
Jadon immediately became nervous. His hand which was holding the teacup trembled slightly. He then asked nervously, "Is... he still alive?"
Looking at Jadon, who seemed to have aged 10 years, Molly's heart ached. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
She sighed and answered honestly, "He's still alive."
Eaton was alive, but she wasn't sure about the state of him now.
However, to Jadon, all he needed to know was that his son was alive.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief and placed the teacup back on the table. After a few seconds of hesitation, he said,
"Molly, I know this request is unreasonable, but..." There was a pause. "I want to beg you to spare Eaton's life."
This was also something Molly had expected.
"Mr. Scott, I'm sure you know what Eaton has done. I can also understand you. It's just that..."
Before Molly could finish speaking, Jadon quickly interrupted. "Molly, listen to me. You can make him pay for his mistakes and sins through other methods."
After hearing those words, Molly frowned. For a moment there, she didn't know what Jadon was getting at.
"After leaving this island, you can call the police and send him behind bars to pay for his sins. As long as... as long as he doesn't have to die."
After saying that, Jadon looked at Molly and Sean with pleading eyes.
After all, the sins that Eaton had committed were enough for him to be sentenced to death.
At that moment, Jadon continued, "Actually, doing this isn't for Eaton. It's for my wife. As long as you're willing to spare Eaton, I'm willing to be your servant for the rest of my life."
With that said, tears welled up in Jadon's eyes.
Seeing him raising his hands and wiping away the tears, Molly felt like she was about to cry as well. She quickly turned away as she couldn't bear to look at such a scene.
Of course, Eaton was the one to blame for all of this. If it weren't for him, Jadon wouldn't have to beg Molly and Sean like this.
Thinking of how well Jadon had treated her in the past, Molly didn't know what to say.
If she didn't agree to Jadon's request, she would feel guilty towards Jadon and his wife.
If she did, then she would be letting Eaton off too easily.
Molly was in a difficult position and didn't know what to do, but at that moment, Sean squeezed her hand. This was telling her that he would take care of this matter.
The truth was that Eaton's doing had nothing to do with his parents. Not only that, Molly always felt grateful towards Mr. Scott and his wife for their care. Therefore, she found it hard to make a decision when faced with her tutor's request.
Therefore, it was up to Sean to make this decision.
He immediately said, "Mr. Scott, that's not necessary. You don't need to be our servants."
No matter what, Jadon was an elder to them.
Jadon was a little stunned. "What do you mean, Sean?"
"You've taken good care of Molly and me in the past and we're very grateful for that,” said Sean.
After hearing those words, Molly could roughly guess Sean's decision.
Sean looked at Jadon and said, "For your sake, we'll return Eaton to you after we leave the island. However, he would still have to suffer the consequences of his own mistakes."
Sean could spare Eaton's pathetic life, but he would definitely not be returned in one piece.
