Chapter 983 The Suspicion That Stings

“Nothing…” Jackson pocketed the brooch and acted like nothing had happened. “I won’t stay for lunch. Just order food for yourself. I have some work to deal with tomorrow morning so I’ll go home early to rest.”Upon hearing this, Tiffany was slightly disappointed. People always said that absence made the heart fonder. They had just gotten back together, but they did not seem to be very close or intimate with one another. “You’re leaving now? You’re leaving so soon after giving me a ride home. Why don’t you want to stay with me a little longer?” She paused for a moment before she finally said, “It’s fine. I know you’re extremely busy. Just leave. I don’t want to make you stay and bother you.”...On the way home, Jackson’s mood was just like the cloudy sky. It was fine when he sent her home. Now the weather had changed. Soon, there would be a thunderstorm. He knew he was not wrong. That was a man’s brooch. He thought to himself, ‘Whose is it? Is it Alejandro’s? Did Alejandro go to her

Chapter 984 Truth Or Lie

After being persuaded by Mark and Eric, Jackson no longer hesitated and made the video call.Tiffany had just gotten out of the shower and was doing yoga on the bed. Fortunately, she was not wearing any risque pajamas. Otherwise, he would not have let the others look at her. She appeared normal as she asked, “What’s wrong? Didn’t you say that you want to go home early to rest? Why are you in the restaurant? Go home early after your meal and don’t drink.” Jackson took the brooch out and showed it to her. “Do you recognize this?” Tiffany looked at the screen and scrutinized it for a moment before she said, “I don’t. Is it a brooch? Is it yours? I don’t wear such things. How would I know?” He continued saying, “I found it at your place near the water dispenser. It’s not mine, but it’s a man’s brooch. I didn’t ask you at that time. Now that I think about it, it’s better if I ask you about it.” Tiffany appeared shocked. She thought to herself, ‘A man’s brooch near the water dis

Chapter 985 Complexity and Perplexity

His facial expression turned solemn immediately. “We’ll talk about it in the study.”When he passed by the living room, Arianne was changing Smore’s diaper. She did not even deign to glance at him. He was quite upset because of that. So much so that he had to take a few deep breaths to suppress his emotions. After they entered the study, he sat down on the chair. “What did you find out?” Henry, the butler, reported truthfully. “The Smiths did quite a good job in concealing the incident so it’s rather difficult if we want to get to the bottom of it. According to some of the clues we found recently, it seems like Alejandro had a minor accident around half a year to a year ago. It seems that he was admitted to the hospital because of a gunshot. Moreover, the hospital caught fire, and his face was slightly burned. He underwent corrective surgery recently so the burns could not be clearly seen now. Although his appearance might be different from before, the difference shouldn’t be too

Chapter 986 Defier Of Mark

Both sides were at their coldest, least cooperative attitudes, and it was fanning the growing frustration within Mark’s chest.“This restoration project is going to cost at least $100,000 just for the most basic repairs, and this is only the gross estimates! For a house like that, a house worth around $1.5 million, it will demand even more money. It could literally cost millions!” he said.Arianne understood the reasoning behind mentioning the money. He was trying to make her bend under his will! But she would not yield, so she countered, “Oh, I see. Well, I have a couple of hundred thousand with me, so I’ll withdraw all of them for this and borrow the rest of the amount from you. Don’t worry, I’ll repay you. I may not be working, but I have a side income from my café. One day, I’ll return all of my dues.”Mark drew in a deep breath before fuming. “Must you insist on talking to me like this? Who says anything about wanting you to return that money?”“If that’s not the issue, then w

Chapter 987 Confrontations

A while later, Mary returned with bad news. “I tried calling her, but it didn’t go through! She mentioned that she was looking forward to several days of unfettered revelries, so maybe she’s planning to keep her phone offline throughout so that no one can disturb her…? B-B-But what do we do, then?”Mark’s lips quivered as raw emotions slowly took control of his features. “Oh, alright… Brava, brava… But two can play that game! Stay out there! Stay out there and don’t come back! I can take care of my son, no problem! I’ll bring him to my company! I don’t, for one, believe that she’s capable of not coming back to see her baby for a month! This time, I’m not going to plead with her to come back!”Mary had the foresight to duck as far away as possible to save herself. She could see it, as clear as day. The war had begun because both sides refused to concede.It was eight in the morning. As planned, Jackson West appeared before the main entrance of the Smith Enterprise.Alejandro’s was a

Chapter 988 Facing Up The Patriarch

Jett had to admit that Alejandro thought ahead. He might have given up on removing Tiffany’s baby himself, but he knew what to say to fool Jackson into doing the dirty for him. That little conversation just now was enough to plant the idea in Jackson’s head that the baby wasn’t his, therefore playing on the man’s insecurities and banes.Regardless, the scene from before had made Jett very worried. He had always been Don Smith’s subject, for starters, and though he now answered to Alejandro, he was still expected to work for Don. What would happen to him when the truth of his work was out? Don could want him dead, or Alejandro could make him die. Either way, the only fate that awaited him was death. That was how much of a nightmare both sides were.The worst of all was that Don had been contacting him more and more often lately. This would not bode well.Jett continued to push Alejandro into the building and took notice that the anxiety level within the building seemed to have dialed

Chapter 989 To Make A Decision Amidst Uncertainties

“You never thought of me, your disgusting little bastard grandson, as someone who would one day be by your side as you die, anyway, “ Alejandro said steelily. “What, have you forgotten the crap you’ve done, huh? Now you want to enjoy the life of a grandfather surrounded by his grandchildren? Give me a break. None of your sons are alive, and the only heir you have is a lame grandson who is too busy to be playing balls with Grandpa. Have your bodyguards be your playmate, old man. If you’re done lecturing me, get out of my way. I’ve got business.”Don turned crimson with rage. “Why you son of a—”Jett stepped out and stopped him. “Master Don, Mr. Smith is doing fine. The company is well, too. He has made quite an achievement since he arrived at the Capital. You should relax.”Don stared straight at Jett for a few seconds before replying, “Alright, then. You take good care of him. I’ll be off.”Jett answered him with a hum and hung his head, afraid that Don might find incriminating sig

Chapter 990 Make The Right Choice, Despite The Odds!

Tiffany’s head was thrown into a knot. She could not fathom whatever was in Jackson’s mind. Sure, she wanted to be successful in her career, but she never thought of giving up her baby for that. When she heard about her pregnancy, the emotion that overwhelmed her was genuine, surprised jubilance. Ever since she saw how adorable Smore was, she had wanted a child of her own.Tiffany planned to request maternity leave when she was near her delivery date, then resume working after that leave expired. Never had the thought of abortion crossed her mind.“No. I’m not giving up on the baby. I don’t even think its gonna affect my work in any way, either,” she said.Jackson was quiet for a beat before replying, “Listen to me. Get an abortion.”That was when Tiffany understood that her perspective was never included in Jackson’s consideration.The realization chilled her. “Why? Just, why? Can you at least give me a reason? You can’t—you can’t just tell me to let go of a kid for no frickin’ r

Chapter 991 Tiffany Decides On A Paternity Test

“What are you doing here alone?” Tiffany asked, sobbing intermittently when they met. “Where’s Smore? Can you really leave him at home?”Although Arianne felt uncomfortable, she did not show it. “Don’t worry, his daddy is with him. What’s there to worry about? I’ve decided to come here for a few days to have fun and keep you company. How are things between you and Jackson?”“He thinks that Alejandro is the father of the baby.” Tiffany sobbed. “He wants me to abort it. I hung up on him angrily, and he hasn’t called me back since. He’s going to drive me crazy…”Arianne wiped her tears off. “Alright, don’t cry. Pregnant women shouldn’t cry. The baby can feel it whenever you’re sad. It’s not a myth, it’s true. Suspicion is one’s greatest enemy. It can destroy trust between two people. There are two ways to solve this now; either you and Jackson have a nice chat and convince him that the baby is his, or you take a paternity test and show him the proof. I don’t recommend you aborting the

Chapter 992 Enter Janice Bell

Mark pulled out his phone countless times, feeling the urge to call Arianne. However, he was afraid she would reject his calls again. That, in turn, would only upset him. He had to endure this. He needed to stop spoiling her so much and that included Aristotle. They were both too spoiled.Suddenly, someone gently pushed the office door open. A tall, slender, and pretty young woman dressed in office wear with her hair tied back into a loose ponytail glided into the room. “Mr. Tremont,” she said in a soft voice, “The director has asked me to bring these documents over. I didn’t knock as I was afraid of disturbing the baby. Should I leave these on your desk?”Mark nodded. “Put them down,” he softly replied, “I’ll look at them when I have the time.” As he spoke, he noticed that the woman had taken off her high heels and carried them in her hands when she entered. She did not use the readily-available disposable slippers. “There’s a shoe cabinet at the door with disposable slippers readil
