Laura noticed that the expression on Chris's face didn't change, but his grip on the cutlery tightened."Mom, don't get too excited." Lewis thought Madam Jacobs was too excited to speak. "Helen and I will stay in Empfield until the child is born.""No, I'm not excited at all. I'm just shocked." Madam Jacobs came back to her senses. "You can stay, but I don't recognize this woman as my daughter-in-law. I don't recognize the child in her womb either. I only have two grandchildren and they're Chris and Harry. No one else is part of the Jacobs family."Madam Jacobs wasn't being nice at all. The smile on Helen's face finally began to fade.The reason that she dared to come back with Lewis this time, was because she wanted to use the child in her womb to be recognized as a member of the Jacobs family. However, she didn't expect Madam Jacobs to say that she didn't recognize the child in her womb."Mom, Helen's pregnant with my child. Why don't you recognize the child?" Lewis was a little
When Harry walked inside, he had an angry look on his face as he looked at Lewis.'Why is this guy back? He brought his mistress back as well!' thought Harry.He looked at Helen angrily as if his eyes could spit fire.When Lewis divorced his wife, Chris was 10 and Harry was only seven years old.However, a seven-year-old child could already remember a lot of things.Chris took Harry with him whenever he went. It was Chris who taught Harry to read and write. He taught Harry manners and raised him.To Harry, his brother was the most important person in the world."Harry, you're back." Lewis saw his other son and his attitude softened. "I'm not bullying your brother and sister-in-law. It's just that they don't have any manners and aren't showing Helen any respect, that's all.""Helen?" A mocking smile appeared on Harry's face. "What respect does a homewrecker want from us? Does she even deserve respect?"It was impossible for Harry not to hate Helen.Harry was three years younge
"Laura, Chris, and Harry didn't grow up with their parents. I was the one who raised them. They had a really hard childhood. Every time I think of that unfilial son of mine, my heart would ache." Madam Jacobs felt really bad for Chris and Harry. Their parents left them when they were young. Now that the two of them had grown up, their father actually brought his mistress back and the mistress was pregnant as well."Normally, Chris is a workaholic and wouldn't take care of himself when he's busy. He's in his 30s now. He's really lucky that you're willing to marry him. I don't have any other requests, I just hope the two of you can get along and live happily. This is a bracelet that has been passed by our ancestors, take it," said Madam Jacobs.Madam Jacobs took out a golden bracelet from a drawer and passed it to Laura.Laura was immediately taken aback and waved her hand. "Madam, I can't. It's too expensive."She could tell that Madam Jacobs was treating her as a real granddaughter
In the morning.Chris was working in his office and Assistant Jacobs rushed in from the outside."Mr. Jacobs, someone's causing trouble outside. He said that he's your... father."Assistant Jacobs looked nervously at Chris and then quickly lowered his head.Chris frowned and his hand froze slightly. He then put the pen down on the table and stood up.His tall figure walked towards the door."I've only not been in the company for a few years and none of you recognize me?" Lewis stood at the entrance of the staircase with a frown. He had a briefcase in his hand and wanted to head to the top floor. However, the security guards weren't letting him through.There were a lot of employees looking curiously at Lewis."Get Chris out here! I'm his father and your employer! If you keep on stopping me like this, I'll fire you!""Who gave you such a right?" Chris appeared with a dark face.Assistant Jacobs followed behind Chris and waved his hand at the employees who had gathered around t
The lawyer showed what he found on the internet to Lewis.Lewis couldn't help but gasp."You hold 70% of the company's shares?"Lewis thought that Chris would have 30% of the shares at the most and 20% would be from Madam Jacobs and Harry. However, he didn't expect Chris to be able to be in total control of the company after only a few years."You'd better leave before I get the security guards to throw you out." Chris was already unhappy after wasting so much of his work time.His domineering aura surrounded Lewis and made Lewis panic a little.Lewis didn't even calm down even after leaving the Jacobs Group.What he had planned was he would use his identity as Chris's father to take the position as the CEO of the Jacobs Group. He would then go to Madam Jacobs and see if she would transfer him her shares to make his status even higher in the Jacobs Group.However, that seemed to be impossible now.How could he be compared to Chris, who owned 70% of the shares?Lewis took out
Lewis was rendered speechless.He was a smart person as well. When he heard Laura's words, and combined them with what the butler told him, he realized that Laura must have mistaken Chris to be working for the Jacobs Group.If that were the case, Lewis obviously wouldn't expose his family's real status to Laura. After all, the girl in front of her was from a normal family. It would be hard for her to resist the temptation of money. What if she became a gold digger?Lewis felt that he wasn't going to be that stupid.He decided that when he came to work at the Jacobs Group, he would be more careful and wasn't going to let Laura see him.With that thought in mind, Lewis left in a hurry with the water.He was in such a rush that Laura gave him another glance.During lunch, Laura was going to take a nap after having something to eat. That was when she received a message. Someone was trying to add her on WhatsApp. She accepted the friend request and the other party quickly sent a mess
Laura squinted her eyes.When Laura saw Jessica, Jessica saw Laura as well. Panic flashed in Jessica's eyes. She quickly let go of the man's arm."What's wrong?" The man beside Jessica was a little puzzled."That's Luke's sister," Jessica said in a low voice. She then quickly walked over. "Laura!"Laura stood where she was and didn't move. She looked at Jessica as she walked towards her."Laura, are you out shopping as well?" Jessica looked at the store behind Laura and the bag in Laura's hand. "Laura, are you buying something for Chris?""Yes." Laura nodded and then looked at the man behind Jessica."Laura, this is my cousin. He's here to keep me company. Please don't be mistaken," Jessica quickly said.The man walked up to Laura and sized Laura up and down. His gaze landed on Laura's delicate face. "Hello."He reached out a hand towards Laura in an attempt to shake hands. However, Laura ignored his hand. She just nodded. "Hello. I still had to head back to work, so I have to
This infuriated Laura.She only went inside to buy a present and the battery pack was stolen. It was under broad daylight as well.Laura took a deep breath and looked around. There was no place where she could fix the electric scooter. All she could do was to push the scooter forward.On her way back, a black Maybach drove past slowly. Assistant Jacobs was sitting in the driver's seat. He saw a familiar figure at the side of the road."Mr. Jacobs, it's Mrs. Jacobs."Chris was looking at a file on his lap in the back seat.He just happened to be at the shopping center for some business matters.He raised his hand and said, "Find a place to set me down."Assistant Jacobs nodded and found a place out of Laura's sight to set Chris down.Chris got out of the car and knocked on the car window. "You can head back first."Assistant Jacobs nodded and started the car. Chris then began chasing after Laura.Laura had all her attention on pushing the electric scooter, but she suddenly fe
