The remark infuriated Tony Cummins. When he tried to question the landlord, the landlord had already hung up.
Whats the matter? Did something happen to the cinerary casket? Melinda Riley asked her husband immediately.
The landlord said that someone went there last night and took the cinerary casket! said Tony Cummins.
They took it? What about our 50 million dollars? Without the cinerary casket, that wench wont give us 50 million dollars! Melinda Riley was worried now. Suddenly, she thought of another possibility. Speaking of which, she must have had someone taken the cinerary casket away
Frowning, Tony Cummins simply picked up his phone and
dialed Graces number.
Moments later, Grace answered the phone. Yes?
Grace, Ive thought about it. After all, were father and daughter. No matter what, were still related. If you really cant give me the 50 million dollars we agreed on yesterday all at once, you can give half of it first. Ill tell you where your mother is buried. Youve hit it off with Jason, havent you? The money
shouldnt be a problem for him, said Tony Cummins. Although
the cinerary casket was gone, he still wanted to try and
blackmail her.

If it was not his daughter who had taken the cinerary casket
last night, then he could make do with 25 million dollars. He
could just buy a cinerary casket and put false ashes in it to
trick her.
What he did not see was Graces disappointed face on the other end of the phone.
This was her father, and he was using her mothers ashes to
get money from her. Was he really taking advantage of her
mothers death?
Its all right. I got Moms ashes yesterday, and Ive already buried her, replied Grace.
Tony Cummins hurriedly snapped at that. It was you! What right do you have to break into my rented house and take
your mothers ashes? You even buried her? Im your mothers husband. How can she be buried without my consent?
So youre aware that youre her husband? I dont think my mother would have been willing to acknowledge you as her husband if she was still alive, replied Grace.
You Is this how you talk to your own father? Youd better tell
me where you buried your mother right now, or Ill have a
lawyer sue you. Even Jason cant help you. Dont think because youre with Jason now that he will take you seriously. Hes just fooling around with you. Unlike Evelyn, shes Brians official girlfriend
However, Tony Cumminss words were cut short by another
voice saying, Oh? Why dont you try and see if I can help her
or not?
The icy baritone caused Tony Cummins to almost choke on his own spit and drop the phone he was holding.
Was that Jasons voice?!
Jason was with his eldest daughter? Did he overhear their phone conversation?
Well Well Before Tony Cummins could finish his sentence, the call on the other end of the phone had been cut off.
Tony Cummins could only stare at his phone.
What happened? Melinda Riley asked quickly. He had not put the call on speaker, so she did not hear what Jason said.
What else? That girl is going places! She has Jason to protect her! growled Tony Cummins. His eldest daughter had Jason as her backup, but he could not get anything out of it. That
was what bothered him the most.
