Chapter 110
In a certain private room of Lithern Club, Trevon sat on the sofa and drank silently, one glass after glass without stopping.
After a while, he looked at Frank coldly and asked, “You have long known that she has children?”
Frank did not answer and shrugged instead, not going to deny it. After thinking about it for a moment, he said, “You only asked if she was back. You didn’t ask about her children”
Trevon couldn’t say anything in response to Frank and only continued drinking in silence.
Seeing the scene, Hackett was a little flustered. He turned to Frank and said, “Frank, shouldn’t you stop him? If he drinks like this, he might have to die from alcohol. What happened? And why is Trevon eager to get drunk? You just mentioned the children. Who are they? Hackett muttered inwardly. “Trevon asked me to have fun late at night. However, is he going to show off his alcohol tolerance in front of me now?”
Frank was expressionless. He held a cigarette between his fingers and looked at Trevon who was about to get himself drunk “We just talked about Natalie’s children”
Hackett was dumbfounded and did not understand the implied meaning in Frank’s words. “What the hell? Is Trevon cuckolded? Didn’t he go to Sapphire City seven times a month? How can he be cuckolded?” The frequency of Trevon going to Sapphire City should be considered high.
“Seven plus twenty-five. Since he didn’t see her, it was normal for her to cuckold him or leave him.” Frank meant that the bird that Trevon wanted to control had flown out of his control.
Trevon had been to Sapphire City seven times every month, and it lasted for twenty-five months, which was the meaning of “seven plus twenty-five”. Moreover, he was stopped outside the gate of the training base 175 times.
Hackett was angered by Frank’s words. He cursed impatiently, “Can you fucking make it clearer? What the hell ‘seven plus. twenty-five’ is? I have been poor in math since I was in school. Explain it clearly to me!”
Frank did not care about Hackett’s quick temper. He crossed his legs leisurely and said unhurriedly, “You can ask Jim beside you.”
Jim was rating the fruits quietly, completely stunned when hearing that. He knew the best about “seven plus twenty-five”. In fact, he wanted to add that Trevon had also tried to enter the training base by climbing over the wall thirteen times. However, he did dare to expose Trevon’s secret.
Jim thought to himself. “In the afternoon, Mr. Wilson asked me to investigate if the little boy was Edward’s child. Heavens! I almost failed to digest the results.
“At that time, I held the document and handed it to Trevon with trembling hands.
“The main point is, Mrs. Wilson didn’t give birth to a single child, but a pigeon pair. According to the medical records, the two children’s birth date was September 20th, and the column about their father’s information was blank. After reading it, Mr. Wilson came to Lithern Club to drink. Clearly, his actions proved that the children weren’t hus.”
Jim did not know when Trevon and Natalie had had sex with each other. Except for Trevon, no one knew about it.
Jim whispered into Hackett’s ear and recounted succinctly what happened in the afternoon. He didn’t mention that Natalie’s children were not Trevon’s
Even if he didn’t say it, anyone with a discerning eye could tell.
The fact that Natalie had two children was shocking enough to Hackett, and he almost forgot to breathe. He asked in confusion, “Isn’t it a good thing? At least, it proves that Edward is not the children’s father. Why does Trevon seem to be unhappy and drink so much?”
Frank uncrossed his legs and leaned on the sofa. He turned his head and looked at Hackett, thinking that Hackett was quite a stupid guy. “Trevon is not the children’s father, either.”
Hackett didn’t know what to say. He said inwardly, “Damn it! I forgot about it. So, Natalie has cheated on Trevon? It can’t be. Since she has divorced Trevon, it is her freedom to have children with another man.”
Trevon ignored their discussion. He drank until he felt a little dizzy. Without saying a word, he grabbed his coat and walked out. Seeing that, Jim threw away the fruit platter and quickly followed him.
“Fuck, is he crazy? He called me here to drink. I didn’t even take a sip of wine, and he left just like that!”
Frank stood up and put on his coat. He picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp. “Go home and rest early
At that moment, Hackett was speechless.
An hour later, Joy rushed to the hospital hurriedly. “Nathan, hurry up.”
Nathan’s unhurried pace annoyed Joy. He even said, “Safety first. Hackett has already gotten into
be more careful. There’s no hurry?
is be your biological son? Why aren’t you worried about him?”
Nathan replied, “You know best whether he’s my biological son or not. You usually despise him. But now, something happened to him, and you were the one panicking to the extreme. You don’t mean what you say. He only suffered a concusson. Don’t worry
Joy glanses at Nathan in dissatisfaction. “His head has gotten hurt How can I still remain calm! Even when he was normal, he didn’t bring a gul back If he hit himself silly, you can forget about having grandchildren for the rest of your life
Nathan knew that he couldn’t defeat joy, so he chose to slut up.
Soon, they arrived at the Athana Hospital Joy asked a nurse anxiously. “Excuse me, may I know where is Hackett
Nathan could’t bear to look at the flustered Joy and went straight to the front desk. After asking around, he dragged Joy into Hackett & ward
He pushed open the door and saw Hackett’s head wrapped in a bandage. There were two band-aids on his forehead, and his elbows were visibly bruised
At first glance. Hackett looked a little pitiful.
Joy walked forward and checked Hackett’s head carefully with both hands. She extended five fingers and waved them in
front of Hackett. “How many
Hackett was lost tor words.
Seeing that he did not answer her question, Joy was a little anxious. “Nathan, it’s over. Hackett doesn’t seem to know how to count. What should we do?”
Hackett suspected that it he did not speak, he would be dragged to the emergency room later. “Mom, what are you doing?”
Hearing that, Joy said excitedly. “You didn’t become a fool”
Hackett held his forehead and didn’t want to talk anymore. He felt a little dizzy.
Joy was quite shocked just now. She patted her chest in relief and thought to herself, “Thank goodness. I still have a chance to have a grandson.”
Nathan sat down on the sofa in the ward and looked at the injured Hackett. “Why were you so careless? Did you drive while drunk”
“No. To avoid a cat. I turned a corner abruptly and hit a tree” Actually, Hackett was not focusing on driving because he had been wondering who the father of Natalie’s children was on the way. In the end, he reacted a little slower and hit a tree. However, he could not tell his parents about it, so he casually made up a lie.
Joy rolled her eyes and mocked. “I think you should ride an electric scooter tomorrow instead of driving a car. You only had to avoid a cat, and how can you hit a tree? Are your driving skills that poor?”
Hackett suspected that Joy was not there to visit him, but to send him away.
He was a little tired and pinched the space between his eyebrows. “Mom, Im dizzy. Let me sleep for a while.”
Nathan saw through Hackett’s poor acting skills and said tactfully. “Since you are not seriously injured, I’ll go back home with your mother first. I’ll pay a nursing worker for you. Rest early, and ring the bell if you’re feeling unwell.” “I’m fine, and there’s no need to hire a nursing worker. It’s so late. Take my mother back for beauty sleep”
Nathan didn’t say more and left with Joy. However, he still arranged for a senior caregiver to take care of Hackett in the hospital. Under Joy’s request, he found a female caregiver.
Just like Juana, Joy did not care mich about people’s family backgrounds. Instead, in their opinion, girls from ordinary families were easy to get along with and would not have bad tempers and vanity like those young ladies from rich families. Moreover, they may treat others more sincerely.
Hackett was asked to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation. After all, a slight concussion might also cause a big problem and could not be ignored.
Joy came to the hospital early the next morning.
She scooped creamy potato soup and said, “I woke up early in the morning to stew it for you. Drink more to nourish. yourself”
Hackett said gratefully, “Got it. Thank you for your hard work, Mom.”
“Don’t say that. Hurry up and drink it. Hasn’t the doctor come for his ward round this morning?”
The young nurse who had tried to please Hackett last night had said that the doctor would come at 8:30 a.m. today. Hackett recalled it and answered, “Not yet. He will come at about 8:30”
At 8:40, a few medical staff in white coats walked in, and the one who was in the front wat…
