Chapter 1182 Smokescreen

• Arnold offered a smile that seemed more like a veiled threat than a friendly gesture, “I just caught a glimpse of your little one. As adorable as the photos suggested, with eyes that mirror yours.”
• The words struck Josie as an unmistakable threat, igniting a fierce glare from her as she muttered under her breath, “Dare to lay a finger on her, and you'll regret it.”
• Arnold, however, appeared to ignore her words, continuing with an air of entitlement, “Given the family ties, she really ought to be calling me 'mister.' I've been back on home turf for a while, so it's high time I presented her with a proper welcome gift. Lead the way; I want to meet her.”
