Rodney spoke, “We never intended to make a big deal out of it. If you have to blame someone, blame your son for indulging Linda and letting her cause a scene. She must have thought that Canberra was the same as Melbourne. Just by crying and making a fuss, everyone would sympathize with her and pity her. But the political world isn’t a place to play house. When you go in, you either win or your life comes to an end. Understand?”
Mr. Jackson shrunk back in pain.
After a few minutes of silence, he seemed to have aged several years.
“I understand. We’ll… leave now.” Mr. Jackson helped Mrs. Jackson up.
“What do you mean?” Mrs. Jackson was in tears.
“Save him?” Mr. Jackson smiled mournfully. “How can we save him? Give up. If we keep pestering them, we won’t even be able to live the rest of our lives in peace.”
Mrs. Jackson was pulled away by Mr. Jackson and they left the Lynch residence in a muddled state.
Mrs. Jackson broke down and cried. “Alas, if I had known that this would happen, I wouldn’t have gotten so close to the Shelby family back then. I shouldn’t have told Patrick to have Linda work in Jackson Corporation.”
” It’s useless to say all that now. We’ve chosen our own paths. You might not know this yet, but the Kramer family has already fallen. Minister Kramer and Nathan Snow were competitors for the election, but the Kramer family collapsed just two days after the incident.
“I heard that several dignitaries who had previously formed alliances with the Kramer family were arrested for some reason. Nathan has started to fight back. This time, he’s not planning to let anyone who offended him off. We’re lucky that Patrick is the only one he took from our family.”
Mrs. Jackson was stunned. She still could not figure out who lent Patrick the courage to go against the Snow family.
“We need to accept fate.” Mr. Jackson sighed.
The night was cold.
At 8:oo p.m. in the Lynch residence, Mr. Lynch made arrangements. “Mireya, go to your room to rest if you’re tired. Young Master Snow, you can sleep downstairs tonight in the first guest room on the left.”
Rodney was stunned for a few seconds before brazenly clearing his throat and saying, “Dad, Mireya and I are already husband and wife…”
“Mireya told us that you only got married to resolve the Snow family’s crisis. It’s not a real marriage, so there’s no need for you to share a room,” Forrest interrupted him coldly. The implication was that it was impossible for Rodney to take advantage of his little sister during their stay here.
“You can get divorced in a few years. ” Mr. Lynch nodded. “You don’t have to call me ¡®Dad’ either. “
Rodney was speechless. Most parents did not want their children to get divorced after getting married.
“Dad, a marriage is a marriage. There are no real or fake marriages, and our marriage license is legitimate. I don’t have any intentions of divorcing after marriage. As I said, I did a lot of bad things before, but I’ll give Mireya and the child a complete home. It’s not good for a woman to get divorced either—“
“What’s bad about it? The Lynch family doesn’t care about our reputation and we can afford to take care of our daughter. Even if we grow old, she still has a brother to take care of her.” Mr. Lynch snorted.
Rodney was sullen. “But Forrest will also get married and have children in the future…”
Forrest corrected him, “I don’t plan to get together with a woman who can’t accept my little sister living with us.”
Rodney, “…..”
The Lynch family was really dedicated to protecting their daughter.
“Dad, Brother, I love you.” Mireya was moved to tears.
“Good girl, go rest.” Forrest coaxed her.
“Cate, let’s sleep together tonight. ” Mireya pulled Cate upstairs with her.
When Cate entered the room, she saw Rodney downstairs with his head hanging low. He looked like an abandoned husky.
After closing the door, she said enviously, ” Since I was young, I’ve always envied your family. Your parents love each other, and you have an amazing, handsome elder brother who spoils you.”
“You don’t have it bad now either. You have a pair o f twins and a maniac who dotes on his wife.” Mireya laughed. “Hey, do you want to go to that place we always used to have supper at? We haven’t been there in years.”
“Sure, let’s go after showering.”
After they showered, it was almost nine.
Cate and Mireya secretly went downstairs. After unlocking the car and getting ready to leave, they suddenly heard Rodney’s voice behind them.
“Where are you guys going in the middle of the night?”
He had probably also just finished taking a shower. He wore a pair of gray cotton pants and a white T- shirt. His black hair was draped lazily across his forehead. His red lips and white teeth made him have a bewitching aura.
“None of your business,” Mireya said in an unpleasant tone. “Go to sleep. I’m going out with Cate.”
” I’m not worried about you. I’m worried about the child.” Rodney snorted. “Don’t think I don’t know that you two must be sneaking out for supper.”
“How did you know?” Mireya’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
Rodney smirked. “Shaun reminded me to keep an eye on you two at night because you’re both gluttons.”
Cate and Mireya blushed.
Rodney saw their expressions and knew that he had guessed correctly. He took away the car keys in Cate’s hands.
“I won’t object to eating supper once in a while, but I’ll have to go with you. After all, you two are beautiful, so at least I’ ll be able to protect you in case something happens.”
No woman would dislike being complimented on their beauty.
Mireya glanced at him. “Then we’ll give you a chance.”
Rodney drove, and they soon arrived at a street with restaurants.
The car stopped at the entrance of the restaurant Cate and Mireya often went to.
Although they had not come for several years, the owner of the restaurant could still recognize them at a glance. “Oh, you two haven’t come here for years.”
“We went abroad.” Cate smiled. “Your business is getting better and better.”
“Yes, I even rented the shop next door to expand the business.” The boss glanced at Rodney and teased Cate. “Is this your boyfriend?”
Then, he turned to Mireya. “Why didn’t you bring your boyfriend over?”
Cate and Mireya looked embarrassed at the same time. Rodney pondered over the words and seemed to understand something. He then deliberately pointed at Mireya with a dark expression. “I’m her husband.”
This time, the boss was the one who got embarrassed. “My bad, my bad. I forgot that it’s been several years. Your husband is much more handsome than that guy.”
“It’s fine.” Mireya smiled.
“Take a seat. I’ll bring you some bacon soon.” The boss told them to sit.
Cate looked around and thought that there were too many people inside, so they decided to sit a t a table outside.
“You’ve been here with that trash Patrick before?” Rodney asked with a cold grunt.
“Yeah, it was a long time ago. I haven’t been here since we broke up a few years ago, ” Mireya said.
Cate added, “The food here is really good. Mireya and I used to come here all the time when we were in university. Sometimes, we also brought… “
“Brought who? Patrick?” Rodney saw the two women suddenly frown and stop talking, so he could not help but ask.
“No, you know her too. It’s Cindy, ” Mireya said sullenly. “Back then, Cate, Cindy, and I came here a lot. We always ordered a few bottles of beer whenever we came.”
Rodney froze.
He knew that Cindy used to be very close to them. In the past three years, he had always heard Cindy say that Cate and Mireya would act like big missies and look down on her, who came from an ordinary background.
Of course, he knew to believe in Mireya and Cate now. He also knew that he had misunderstood them a lot before.
“Hey, heroine, what a coincidence? I never thought we’d meet again.”
Suddenly, a tall man walked up to the table. His handsome face was full of joy when he saw Cate.
Cate looked up. It was the young man she had saved this morning.
This time, Matthew was in a black short- sleeved shirt. He had thick eyelashes and azure eyes that were as charming as the sea of stars. Besides, he had a sexy Adam’s apple. Although he was only 21 years old, he gave off an aura that made women go wild.
