The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 305

Jacob Shelby immediately stopped and looked at the man with a calm expression.

The man could not help exclaiming, "The internet of today is truly quite terrifying. I changed my phone number three to four times and I moved to a few different places for the past few years. Yet, I was still found. The world is truly unsafe."

Jacob refused to engage in small talk with the man but he still said, "Don't worry. It's not as unsafe as you've imagined. There are less than five people in the entire nation who are capable of going to the extent of what I’m doing. On the other hand, I was only searching for 50 to 60 people and you were the only person whose contact number and address I got in the end. The information related to the others all vanished in time space. You are the only hope. Thus, I hope that I'm able to get some useful information from you.”

This time, the man's curiosity was piqued.

What sort of questions would make the man before his eyes exert so much effort and pay such a huge price just to get answers?

"Go ahead and ask," said the man as he glanced at the 10,000 dollars.

Jacob nodded, then went straight to the point. "25 years ago, did my mother give birth to a girl when she was working at the construction site?"

As he was speaking, he looked at the man nervously.

The man slapped his thigh and assumed an expression of enlightenment. "So it turns out that you're here for this. If you're here to ask me about something else, I may not remember clearly because it has been such a long time since. However, I still remember this."

"Please tell me." Jacob's entire person tensed up.

"The girl is adopted actually," said the man.

Adopted... Jacob's pupils constricted abruptly.

"Frankly, you will know just by thinking about it. The owner of the construction site is an exploiter. He enjoys assigning women to work on men's tasks while men were to work on animal labor. How could he possibly keep a pregnant woman? Thus, your mother wasn’t pregnant and the child was not her biological child," said the man.

Jacob felt his throat getting parched at once. He spoke through clenched teeth, "Please describe it in detail."

The man looked at the pile of money on the table.

Jacob pushed over all the money to him right away. "A s long as you're able to explain the matter clearly, all this money will be yours."

"Great." The man was delighted. One hundred thousand was a year’s worth of salary for him.

He dared not digress anymore but he hastily said," This is the case. On that night, the few of us got off work and we had a day off the next day, which was rare. We went out for drinks to relax and we spent the night drinking and chatting in a hole in a wall bar until dawn. By then, the few of us were drunk so we walked to the construction site slowly along the moat. We were walking when we suddenly noticed a black shadow doing something sneakily by the river! We called out aloud which startled the black shadow and i t ran away. We made our way to the riverside and found a newborn girl placed in the river. We hastily fetched the baby girl from the river. She choked on quite a lot of water at the time and her face turned blue. We performed first aid on the baby girl and rushed her to the hospital. The baby girl was saved after receiving a series of emergency procedures."

At this point, the man slapped his thigh once again. "A t the time, we had only realized that the black shadow we startled was trying to drown this baby girl! It was fortunate that we rushed over in time, only then the baby girl was saved. To be honest, we may be brutes but we have consciences at the very least. It was such a small infant and yet someone was actually trying to drown her ruthlessly. This was simply heartless. If we captured that black shadow, we would have certainly beat him up beyond recognition."

Jacob's face was slightly pale. "So, that baby girl...is m y younger sister?"

The man heaved a sigh. "That's right. If not, why would I say that your father is a great man, huh? At the time, we had albeit pitied the baby girl, but every one of us had financial difficulties. How would we have extra money to raise a child? We wanted to send her to an orphanage but it was your father who took pity on the baby girl because he found her adorable. H e proposed to adopt the child. I still remember that your mother objected to it at the time. Your father got into a huge fight with her because of this matter. Afterward, your mother agreed to keep the baby girl under your father's persistent request. Of course, the construction site would never take in an infant. So, your father and mother applied for leave and sent the child back to their hometown."

As he was speaking, the man looked at Jacob strangely. "Why, have they not told you about this matter before?"

Jacob shook his head. His face was ghastly pale. "No, Father said that she was their child."

The man heaved a sigh once again after hearing that." That is why your father is a great man."

The man was still thinking about the matter while Jacob felt like he was in a disturbed state of mind.
