Chapter 980
"I broke ties with my family for you, and now you've turned me into a joke."
Jaden wasn't sure whether to feel let down or just plain amused. He shut his eyes and said, "We all have to own up to our mistakes. I misjudged folks and got booted from the Neville family. You tangled with Flora and landed yourself in hot water with the law. It's your mess to clean up. You really need to take a hard look at things..."
"Let's not see each other again."
"No! Jaden! Don't leave me! I love you! I really do!"
Candace cried out in despair. She couldn't imagine life without Jaden!
Even though Jaden had been kicked out of the Neville family, he was still a big deal. He could give her the happiness she craved. Without Jaden, how would she survive on Lone Island?
But Jaden didn't stop. He walked away, and Candace finally crumpled to the ground, tears of regret streaming down her face.

Austenberg Airport.
Aisha strutted out of the airport terminal in a red trench coat and towering heels.
She was met with a massive crowd at the arrivals area, people shouting at the top of their lungs.
For a moment, Aisha thought they were there for her. A flicker of annoyance crossed her face as she pulled her mask tighter. "Who spilled the beans about my arrival?"
She had an audition lined up, and this mob of fans could really throw a wrench in her plans.
Her assistant stretched his neck to get a better look. "Aisha, I don't think-"
"Don't think what?" Aisha snapped, clearly irritated. "We'll take the VIP exit. Get some bodyguards to cover me from all angles, or else they'll swarm me."
The assistant, trying to keep his cool, said, "Aisha, they're not here for us."
Aisha's expression froze, feeling like she'd been smacked in the face.
The assistant handed her a phone. "Today's the day global champ Flora returns. See? Twitter's blowing up about her."
Hearing Flora's name brought back memories of how she almost derailed Aisha's career in showbiz.
Her mood soured, but she couldn't resist peeking at the phone.
#GlobalChampion FloraReturns
#NationGoddess FloralsBack
#MiracleDoctor Flora
Seeing these hashtags, she pouted. "All this fuss just because she's back?"
Noticing her mood, the assistant wisely stayed silent.
But let's be real, being a global champ is no small feat...
She'd secretly watched Flora's competitions and was almost fangirling herself!
"Let's move!"
Aisha, now more determined, purposely headed towards the crowd, even taking off her sunglasses.
Yet, the crowd didn't even glance her way.
"Hey, miss, could you scoot over? You're blocking our view!"
Aisha: "..

"Finally back, how about a get-together tonight?" Ray nudged Connor.
"Yeah," Connor agreed with a nod.
"You guys head off," Henrik chimed in. "I've got another thing to handle."
"Off to see Cecelia, huh?" Flora teased, seeing right through him.
Henrik just grinned, not bothering to deny it.
Connor handed him a set of keys. "My car's parked outside. Drive safe." "Will do."
Henrik took the keys and drove off to the film city.
