“Patrick… ” Mrs. Jackson cried anxiously. “What are we supposed to do now? Dear, think of a way. We have to save Patrick.”
Mr. Jackson clenched his fist. “How are we supposed to save him? Who will dare to offend the Snow family to save him now? Linda, what the hell were you doing? Why didn’t you stop Patrick from doing such a thing?”
Linda went pale with fright. Not only did she not stop him, but she actually instigated the matter.
She was just miffed that Mireya became Nathan’s goddaughter. She thought that if Nathan’s reputation was ruined, Mireya would not have a good time either.
“We’ll go… and beg Mireya. ” After a long time, Mr. Jackson let out a heavy sigh.
“Then… why don’t we tell Linda to apologize?” Mrs. Jackson asked tentatively.
“What’s the point of telling her to go? So she can kneel? Or cling to Mireya’s hand and refuse to let g o?” Mr. Jackson flung his hand and left.
Mrs. Jackson followed him. After they left the office, she said to her husband, “You went too far just now. I know you’re angry at Linda, but if Jackson Corporation really collapses, Patrick will only be able to count on the Shelby family.”
“Don’t you get it? The Snow family won’t let the Jackson family off, and they won’t let the Shelby family off either. Besides… We’ll talk about it if Patrick gets released. What I’m worried about is that… the Snow family won’t let him off.” Mr. Jackson sighed heavily.
Mrs. Jackson froze.
In the Snow residence.
Mireya had just finished her dinner at the large round table when Jessica received a call and said to Nathan, “Uncle, Patrick Jackson has been arrested.”
“Hm.” Nathan frowned deeply and took a sip of tea. “How’s the situation with the Kramer family?”
“Minister Kramer is claiming to be sick and is not meeting any guests. He has taken a few days off,” Jessica said faintly, “I’m guessing he’ll behave himself with his tail tucked between his legs for now.”
“He’ll tuck his tail between his legs for a short while and then resurface to give me a hard time again?” Nathan looked at Ryan. “I originally thought of letting Minister Kramer enjoy his life in retirement, but it seems there’s no need for that. Rid the Kramer family of all their positions within two days. They can be disposed of.”
“Okay.” Ryan nodded with a sharp look on his handsome face that Mireya had never seen before.
Mireya was stunned. Nathan was always kind in front of her, so much so that she had almost forgotten that no one in politics would be that simple.
“As for Patrick…” Nathan smiled and glanced at Mireya. “Since he offended our family’s little princess, let him spend the rest of his life in jail.”
Mireya drew in a cold breath. “For life?”
Ryan looked at her. ” Since he dared to go against the Snow family, he should be prepared for the worst. Besides, if we don’t teach him a fatal lesson, how will other people know to treat the Snow family with respect?”
“The Snow family always had a good reputation, but it was almost ruined by Patrick Jackson. ” Old Master Snow nodded to agree with Ryan’s words.
Mireya’s red lips moved, but in the end, she did not know what to say.
She hated Patrick, but not so much that she wanted him to rot in prison for the rest of his life.
However, he had offended the future prime minister, whose authority would not tolerate being offended.
“By the way, Rodney,” Wendy suddenly said,” Since you’re married now, you should accompany Mireya back to Melbourne and meet your parents-in- law. Go tomorrow.”
“Okay. ” Rodney nodded obediently and looked at Mireya. “Um… Shaun and Chester heard that I got married and asked me to treat them at the club this evening.”
“Mmh.”
Mireya hummed in acknowledgment. If he wanted to go, then he should just go. Why was he telling her this?
Rodney felt a little uncomfortable with her indifferent attitude. “I’m just telling you in case you think that I’m going to see Sarah.”
“If you dare to see Sarah again, I’ll break your legs,” Jason warned him.
Rodney’s legs trembled as he smiled. “I have nothing to do with her anymore.”
After dinner, Rodney drove to the clubhouse.
Chester arrived first and was sitting on the sofa alone. He was playing with the lighter in his hand thoughtfully.
“What are you thinking of? You’re lost in thought.” Rodney sat next to him. “Where’s Shaun?”
“He should be on the way. When I called an hour ago, he said he would come after playing basketball with his kids. He should be on the road now,” Chester answered casually.
Rodney was speechless. “What’s the big deal about having a woman and kids? But… hehe. I have a woman and a kid too now. Chester, only you and Chase are still unmarried. Well, good luck.”
“I don’t envy those who are married, ” Chester said faintly.
“That’s true. You’d rather hang yourself on a tree, ” Rodney teased.
“You seem quite happy about your marriage. When we asked you to marry Mireya before, you acted as if you would rather die.” Chester glanced at him and gave him a vague smile.
“Am I happy?” Rodney looked confused. “I’m not. “
Chester snorted. Rodney’s face was full of pride, but he did not notice it himself.
“I just feel like… you know, people have to get married sooner or later. Even if I don’t marry Mireya, my mom will keep arranging blind dates for me. At least Mireya is carrying my child. She’s beautiful and talented. My family likes her very much as well, so she’s a good marriage partner,” Rodney mulled over it and said.
“Congratulations. But if it were not for this incident with Patrick, Mireya wouldn’t have married you.” Chester smirked. “You got the good end of the bargain.”
“Don’t say that. I’m not bad either.”
Rodney had just finished speaking when the door of the room was pushed open. Shaun came in with his hands in his pockets. “What are we talking about? Hurry up and get it over with. I want to go home to my wife and kids.”
“You can’t even do it. What’s the point of going back?” Rodney attacked him mercilessly.
Shaun’s expression darkened. ” Rodney Snow, do you want to die?”
Chester smiled. “He got married today, so cut him some slack. Come, Rodney, cheers. I wish you a happy wedding night! “
Rodney stiffened.
Chester secretly whispered in his ear, “A woman’s pregnancy is stable after three months. It hasn’t been easy for you. You only did it once in the 3o years of your life, and you didn’t do it in a state of consciousness either. Do you… want me to teach you a few tricks?”
“Get out!” Rodney jumped up with a red face.
“We’re all men here. What’s there to be ashamed of?” Chester did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Rodney wanted to cry. “You think too much. Before we got married, Mireya signed an agreement with me. I’m not allowed to touch her after marriage. We’re only a couple in name.”
Shaun was happy at his misfortune. “That’s nice.” “Nice my *ss! I’m a normal man—“
“Haven’t you been living like this the entire time anyway? Just don’t touch her.” Chester smiled.
“No. I wasn’t married before, but now that I am, this kind of thing is justified. Why can’t I touch her?” Rodney could not accept this. “Help me think of a way.”
“There’s nothing to think of. She’s pregnant now, so you can’t use force since it’ll hurt the child.” Chester gave him three words, “Hold it in.”
Rodney, “….”
He angrily took a large gulp from his glass.
Shaun also slowly drank two to three glasses. He did not dare to drink too much for fear of getting drunk.
At g:oo p.m., he was going to leave.
“Damn it, Shaun. You’re so boring. ” Rodney was chagrined. “Today is my wedding day, but you’re going back so early.”
“You can learn from me. Get used to accompanying your wife and child.” Shaun smirked and left coolly.
When he returned home, Cate was still reading stories to the two children.
He climbed onto the bed and hugged her from behind. “Cate, I’m drunk.”
Suzie looked at him with disgust. ” Ugh, scummy dad, you’re so shameless. You’re an adult but you’re still acting all pampered.”
“Shame on you!” Lucas also spat out these three words. “What do you two know? It’s natural to act like this to one’s wife.” Shaun hugged Cate without letting go, making the kids feel goosebumps rising all over their bodies from his lovey-dovey side.
