Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 121

August noon, brilliant weather. However, the atmosphere at the Darby Mansion was extremely gloomy.

The clan gathered in the main hall, glancing at Jackson and Rebecca with grim expressions.

"Jackson, have you thought this through?" Drake asked.

"Yes, dad," Jackson nodded. "I have. I fully support Rebecca's decision to have the baby." He looked at Rebecca's belly.

Indeed, she was pregnant. However, she and Jackson had not consummated their marriage. 1

Ever since the wedding where Rebecca was raped, Jackson gave her space to heal from the trauma. After all, it was distressing for her. However, Jackson did not foresee that Rebecca would get pregnant. One does not need to guess who the father was.

The news of Rebecca’s pregnancy spread throughout the entire Darby clan barely within a day.

"Jackson, you're crazy!"

"Yeah, this kid isn't yours. Why are you keeping it?"

"Darryl raped your wife, yet you still want to keep his child?"

Everyone in the family was yelling in indignation.

Jackson clenched his fist tightly.

SLAM!

Yumi hit the table. She stood up and said, "Jackson, have you gone mad? Darryl, that filthy animal has humiliated us all by doing such a degrading thing. Now, if you and Rebecca had the baby-and the world knew of this-it would reflect badly on us! We will live i n shame!"

"Yes, Jackson. You have to think this through," Florian chimed in. He looked exasperated. If they had carried out a DNA test, he would be busted. He had to stop this no matter what!

Yumi felt the same. If everyone knew the truth, Florian would be done for. He would not be able to live in peace for the rest of his life.

"Big brother, Sister-in-law. We've decided to keep the baby. Don't try to persuade me otherwise," Jackson shook his head.

"Rebecca! Jackson's mad, but why are you following in his lead? You should persuade him! You’re pregnant with that b*stard Darryl's child!" Yumi cried in distress.

Rebecca bit her lip, then she said, "Sister-in-law, please do not worry. I have discussed it with Jackson. No matter what, the child did nothing wrong. It is a precious life. Furthermore, he is a Darby..." Rebecca lowered her head.
