After the court session, Elder Collins directed his driver to go toward Janet's house. Although he always disliked how Janet refused to acknowledge Alvin as her son, and never treated Alvin like a son by prioritizing herself, Elder Collins could guess Janet would be panicked by the revelation of the truth.

Janet was his daughter. So keeping his anger aside, he wanted to be her moral support, boost her confidence and help her walk through the troubles irrespective of the effects on her career. He was even prepared to face the media with her if necessary.

Hence, having no idea about Casper's threat to Janet or Janet's selfishness at the Oasis mansion, Elder Collins appeared at the penthouse without notifying the Wilson family.

"Elder Collins, please welcome. I will call Mrs. Wilson..." The maid who recognized Janet's father was courteous to him. She had a wide smile expecting Janet to be happy to see her father visiting her after many years.

Elder Collins cut her off as he went inside, "Where is Janet?" He looked calm and collected without revealing his emotions.

The maid closed the door of the penthouse as she responded chirpily, "Mrs. Wilson is in her bedroom with Manager Clarie. I will..."

Elder Collins cut her off again. "It's alright. I will go upstairs." He assumed Janet was afraid to step out.

He wasn't there when Casper used her for the project, he wasn't there when Janet took the harsh decision of leaving the infant at Casper. He wasn't there when she had made her heart stone and refused to take little Alvin.

He still wanted to believe Janet had motherly concern towards Alvin but couldn't accept it due to circumstances.

Hence, he wanted to be there for her when she was thinking the whole world would curse her and disown her from the entertainment industry. He wished to express to her that the Collins family will be there for her no matter what.

Unfortunately, as he stepped close to the bedroom, he heard Janet's voice of disbelief mentioning, 'I-I went early in the morning to Alvin's place and asked him to take the case back. He didn't even listen to me....'

Elder's collins expression turned dark hearing Janet. Although he didn't know why Janet asked to take the case back, Elder Collins couldn't help but grit his teeth.

A little boy, her grandson's life was in danger. How could Janet ask Alvin to take the case back?

He went inside the room to demand the reason for her actions.

Without noticing the old man's arrival, Janet continued with a hint of anger and contempt, "You know, nothing has happened to his son. He isn't dying, he isn't even hurt."

Elder Collins was incensed hearing Janet mention Zane as some random boy. Instead of being fortunate that Zane was unharmed, Janet was ignoring the attempted kidnap and the consequences of it. Thus Janet's words further infuriated Elder Collins.

Janet cried feeling unfair for ignoring her life and career that was being affected by the Matthews family, "Why couldn't-"

"Pak,' She didn't get to complete, 'Why couldn't he take the case back?'

Elder Collins breathed heavily after slinging his hand across Janet's face paying no heed to her tears or her struggles.

Claire gasped in shock. Words struck in her throat looking at furious Elder Collins. Elder Collins was angry at Janet from the time Janet left infant Alvin at the Matthews family and signed a non-disclosure agreement. However, Elder Collins scolded Janet but never raised his hand. So Clarie fell completely silent, afraid to even take a breath.

Anxiety mixed with the sharp stinging pain left Janet in stupefaction. She was frozen on the bed without reacting to the slap or Elder Collins's words.

"I should have given you this slap when you came home saying you were impregnated by a married man." Elder Collins bellowed at his daughter.

He could clearly remember young Janet shaking in fear, tears rolling down her cheeks when she confessed that she was pregnant. He wasn't just angered at her carelessness, but also broken-hearted for his daughter. He had never thought she would turn into a selfish monster.

Elder Collins grabbed Janet's arm and pulled her stand. He asked earnestly, "Janet Collins if somebody tries to kidnap Nickolas, will you stay quiet and wait for them until they kidnap him?"

He felt his heart weigh down. When Janet could love her two children, why couldn't she give the same concern and care to Alvin?

When he was agitated at her behavior, he could understand why Alvin never liked to face Janet.

Janet who snapped out of her daze widened her eyes hearing her second son being kidnapped. Why did her father bring up her son?

Elder Collins sneered at Janet witnessing her reaction, "How could you ask Alvin to take the case back?"

He shrugged her away and tried to calm down. He truly went there to talk to her, coax her and help her. He felt his head throb to even look at her face.

Janet clenched her teeth, swallowing the pain from her cheek. She assumed Elder Collins went all the way to her house to scold her.

Why was he scolding her?

She always did what was right. Wasn't she supposed to protect herself?

Janet howled at his father, "Why are you scolding me here? Do you even know what Alvin called me?" She cried out as a tear rolled down her cheeks, "An escort."

She went close to Elder Collins and said through her teeth, "He wanted to throw his money on me." In annoyance, she pushed Elder Collins as she yowled, "Go and discipline him. Don't come here if you want to keep condemning my choices." She was tired of her family criticizing her.

Manager Clarie involuntarily supported the old man who stumbled back by the push. She looked at Janet in horror. How angered Janet might be, she hadn't expected Janet to push the old man.

Elder Collins knew he shouldn't have slapped his daughter. He earned equal respect for his actions. He clenched his teeth and watched his daughter enraged.

Escort? Alvin shouldn't have said that.

Discipline Alvin? He had done that all these years. Hence Janet was able to visit Oasis mansion whenever she wanted and was able to sit in the same room when Alvin was there.

He can't speak with Alvin about his daughter or straighten the opinion of his daughter. He could only blame himself for his parenting and accept the reality.

Nonetheless, when he left silently from there, he decided to stand by Alvin and let his daughter take care of her untold secret.

Manager Clarie looked at the old man and Janet alternatively. She hoped for Janet to stop the old man. They could only minimize the impact of the news with the help of Alvin and the Collins family as Janet's support. Or else the secret will create havoc in Janet's career.

"Jane, stop your father." Claire pleaded with Janet. She was a manager, she will earn as long as her artist do good in the entertainment field.

How could she watch her artist ruin her chance of survival?

Whereas Janet shrugged and looked away from the door, breathing heavily.
