Chapter 64: The Last Message and the Funeral
ปรับปรุงล่าสุด:
2025-03-19 12:00:01Six months later, Jacob received unexpected news from a hospital. His mother had already passed away because of cancer. Since he blocked his mother’s phone number, he didn’t know that Tanya was ill.
He went to the hospital to receive her corpse. When the administration staff knew Jacob came to bring his mother’s body, a nurse approached him.
“Mr. Jacob Jefferson?” the nurse asked.
“Yes, I’m Jacob Jefferson, and you are?”
“I’m Cindy Randall. I’m a nurse who accompanied and checked on your mother.”
Jacob nodded. “I see. Thank you for helping my mother before she passed away,” he said calmly.

When Emily heard about Tanya’s funeral, she wanted to come. No matter what happened between Jacob and her, she was engaged to Jacob back then. Tanya also treated her well, so she felt it was necessary to come to the funeral to give her last respect.However, Harold was against her. “Baby, you will invite problems by coming to the funeral.”“What do you mean?” she asked.Even after marrying him, his wife was still so naive. He let out a sigh. “When Jefferson sees you, do you think he will let you go?”Tilting her head to the side, she creased her forehead because she disagreed with Harold. “He doesn’t have any other choice. I’m a married woman.”

It was nine thirty a.m. when Emily prepared to go to the funeral. She wore a black silk dress. Harold shook his head when he saw her.“What?” She raised her eyebrow.“You must wear a mask.”“A mask?” she asked. “What for?”“So Jefferson won’t recognize you.”Emily let out a sigh. It’s a good idea, but wasn’t it too much? She was startled when Harold took a black veil and gave it to her.“Wear it, love. So, you can give your respect there while not attracting attention to yourself.”She wore it without protest. He groaned inside because

It had never crossed Jacob’s mind that Emily had found out about his secret identity. Since she lived a sheltered life, he didn’t have a clue how she could know about it.So, he lowered his voice and asked calmly, “How could you find out about it?”Emily bit her lower lip because she didn’t want to make Viona in trouble. Yet, judging from Jacob’s reaction that he didn’t deny it, she knew it was true.No matter what, Jacob would know about it eventually. It was better to come clean with him, so it avoided any future complications. But then, would it be worth it to put Viona in trouble?His assistant didn’t treat her well from the first time she met her. But she also didn’t want to get the assistant in trouble bec

Jacob deliberately wanted to provoke Harold, so he turned Emily’s body to face her husband while he hugged her waist from behind with a hand. He even kissed her neck while staring at him.“See? Emily wants to be with me, but then she doesn’t want to divorce you. Isn’t she too kind?”“My dear?” Harold approached Jacob and Emily.Emily tried to remove herself from Jacob’s embrace, but he was too strong. She shook her head in her attempt to get her husband’s attention. “No! I don’t want to be with him.”“Jefferson, are you trying to get killed?

Emily hugged Jason’s shoulder, and then she called Mia, “Sweetheart, come to Mommy, please?”The little girl strolled toward her mother while she still glanced at Jacob. When she was before her mother, Emily hugged Mia, too. She took a deep breath because it wouldn’t be easy to explain it to the twins. However, they deserved to know the truth.Before Emily could say something, Harold also approached them and hugged the mother and the twins. “Let’s go. The explanation can wait. We’ll go to the zoo, and later, Mommy and Daddy will explain everything at home. Okay?”Jason nodded and took his father’s hand. “Daddy, let’s go back to the car. Tom has been waiting a long time there.”“Yes, Son.&

Harold’s eyes were wet, but he brushed them quickly with his hand and cleared his throat. He patted his son’s head fondly, and they walked side by side, saying nothing else.Jacob observed everything happened with jealousy because the children should be his. He wanted to be close with them, but he was clueless.Jason told Mia what Emily said, and both agreed to give Jacob a chance to get to know them. So, it was Mia first who approached Jacob.“Mr. Jefferson?” the little girl said.“Yes, young lady?” Jacob smiled at Mia.“What’s your favorite animal in the zoo?”Mia’s question surprised him, but he looked arou

He shifted to sit next to her and wrapped his arm around her waist while whispering in her ear, “Then the third option will be the best one to take. Think about it.”She said nothing because she needed time to think. Harold was right. She regretted attending the funeral.He kissed her shoulder. After taking a card from his wallet, he left it on the table. “Text me a month from now about your decision. I need your number too.”She mentioned her phone number, and he saved it in his phone. “Please don’t call me. Just send a text message. I don’t want Harold to be mad at me.”Afterward, he left her. She took his card and read his phone number. It was still the same old number he used. She couldn’t tell Harold about what s

The next day, Jacob sent a text message to Emily because he wanted to meet with his children. ‘Emily, I want to meet with Jason and Mia. Can I buy them ice cream?’ At first, he only wanted to use his children to approach Emily, but after interacting with them, he liked Jason and Mia and wanted to build a relationship with them.Yet, Emily didn’t reply, so he waited for a half hour. Still, she hadn’t replied yet. So, he called her number. In the second ring, she picked up the phone.“I told you to text me! Why do you call?”“If you replied to my text, I wouldn’t call you.”She groaned and talked to herself in her mind to stay calm. “Fine. I’ll read your text and reply.”

He touched her neck, right on the hickey. “That bastard kissed you and left a hickey here to mock me.” He sighed. “I should know better. I’m sorry, baby.”“I want to ask something.”“Go ahead.”“Besides Gwen and Viona, did you have sex with another woman?”Harold was silent because if he said he only got laid with those two women, he would lie to her. However, if he confessed he had plenty of women as a way for him to control them, she might be scared or even despised him. It was a lose-case scenario no matter what answer he gave him.Emily shed her tears because, without hearing his answer, she knew he had another woman, possibly several other women. The

Please don’t!”“Oh?” Jacob raised his eyebrow and sneered. “Or what? You will shoot me?” He taunted Harold because if he did, Jacob might have more reasons to persuade Emily to leave her husband.“You truly want to invite death!” H

Jacob and Emily talked about the twins, about the past, and also their current situation. Then Emily said, “I’m sorry for not letting you know when I was pregnant with Jason and Mia.”“I forgive you,” he held her hand and squeezed it, “but can you consider divorcing Harold? I want to marry you and be our children’s father and your husband.” He brought her hand to his lips and kissed it. “We can’t repeat the past, but if you give me another chance, I promise I’ll protect and care for you and the children.”She let out a long sigh while biting her lower lip. After knowing Harold’s infidelity, it was getting harder and harder to stay in her marriage.But then she shook her head. “The reason I ran away three years ago was because I knew

From the hospital, Emily was about to go home, but she walked to a cafe near the hospital. After ordering and paying for a cup of latte, she took a deep breath and called Jacob. He took the call after the second ring. “Emily? How’s Jason? Is he okay?”It warmed her heart to know Jacob cared so much for their son. “Jason is well. I just visited him. I … I wonder if we can talk.”“Oh? Sure. What do you want to talk about?” “Well, about the offer you gave.” She licked her dry lips. “I’m at a cafe near the hospital. Can you come here so we can talk?”“Okay. I’m on my way.”After thirty minutes, Jacob arrived at the cafe. Since a few visitors were there, he could spot Emily right away. She waved at him, and he walked toward her table. After seeing her empty cup, he said, “Do you mind if we go elsewhere?”Emily shook her head. “No, it’s okay if you want to go somewhere.”So, Jacob escorted her to the parking lot, his hand on the small of her back.

He was already awake and promised her to give a jewelry set because he enjoyed the surprise.When Viona met Emily, she smiled and pretended to be shocked to see her. “Oh!” She covered her mouth with a hand. “You’re here.”Emily recognized Viona’s voice as the voice on the phone. However, she didn’t want to create a scene in Harold’s office.Viona sneered and then bent her head to whisper, “Mr. Montgomery is such a generous man. He promised to give me a jewelry set.” Then she licked her lips. “Maybe he loves my surprise.”Clenching her hand, Emily took a deep breath. She smiled at the assistant. “You can have your lunch now.”

After the meeting, Lee approached Harold. He shook Harold’s hand first and congratulated him. “Can I talk to you?”“Go ahead.”He glanced around to see some leaders remained there. “Well, can we talk privately?”Harold nodded and escorted Lee to the next room.

The Billionaire's Secret: A Second Chance Mafia Romance Chapter 87: The Silent Syndicate's Meeting
At night, Harold attended a meeting of the Silent Syndicate in the headquarters. The agenda was to determine their next leader. It was a regular thing they would discuss every decade. Considering they could choose a new leader after a decade, it would ensure that the syndicate wouldn’t have a bad leader for too long.Five-year leadership changes were suggested because a decade seemed too much. However, most leaders opposed the feedback in the last meeting. It was impractical to change a new leader every five years. Besides, creating a leadership structure required a long time. Changing it every five years would be unproductive.Harold willingly stepped aside for a new leader to take his place. It wasn’t a big deal for him to be the highest leader or not because he was already busy in his business too. Yet, since most of the Silent Syndic
