The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 528

The thought of what may follow got Jennifer's cheeks in a hot flush.

Should I give in if Donald were to make a move on me?

While still mired in indecision, Jennifer produced the keys to unlock the door.

“Huh? Why are the lights on?”

The two of them entered the house only to discover Leonard and Linda inside the living room. Kevin, Jennifer's younger brother, was there as well.

“Dad, Mom. How did you get in here?”

Jennifer was stunned. Though she had not changed the locks to their marital home since Donald moved out, she was the only one who held the keys.

Linda's expression instantly stiffened when she saw Donald standing behind Jennifer.

“How did we get in? I have the spare set of keys to this house!” said Linda as she stood up from the couch. “Were you going to allow Donald to stay for the night if we hadn't shown up?”

“This is between me and him. It has nothing to do with you,” replied Jennifer in a sullen voice.

That got Linda incensed. “I am your mother, so you tell me whether that ought to be any concern of mine! Shouldn't it be obvious to you by now what sort of man Donald Campbell is? If it isn't enough that he's always stirring up trouble everywhere he goes, he's also constantly messing around with other women out there. Lord knows how many of them he's gotten himself mixed up with, and most importantly, he even tried to...”

“Mom, that's enough!” Jennifer snapped with displeasure written all over her face. “I've already told you that Donald only did it to save you that time. He wasn't trying to do anything else to you. What's more, he isn't interested in you at all.”

“How dare you speak to your own mother that way!”

Leonard approached with a hand raised, poising to strike at Jennifer.

He had not anticipated that Jennifer would not only decline to evade but also voluntarily present her own face to him. “Do it. Hit me, and I'll cut ties with you.”

“You! You'll be the death of me!”
