Chapter 710
Kennethâs brows furrowed.
He thought of those days when he was busy round the clock; Jessica had kept asking him for money.
She told him that her father fell seriously ill; her mother was having a heart attack the next day; or her
brother was in trouble. She even claimed that her father was sent to the ICU, which had cost a lot of
money every day. And there were many other expenses too.
After Kenneth gave her over ten thousand dollars, she would make up all sorts of excuses again.
To him, Jessica had always been a simple and innocent woman. He didnât perceive her as someone
materialistic.
Thus, he didnât think of her that way. They were a married couple anyway, so his money was hers as well.
It was just that he didnât have much money in his hands back then, and ten million dollars wasnât enough
to run a company. Jessica would make excuses to take over every project too.
His circumstances were rough, but he didnât even complain once. He even suggested paying her father a
visit, but Jessica told him that it would be enough for her to look after her father because Kenneth was
busy with work.
At that time, he even laid off his driver and assistant to save some money. He took everything upon
himself and worked hard.
One day, he was so tired that he even fainted after meeting a client.
Before he lost his consciousness, Kenneth had thought he saw a woman. But she vanished after he
regained consciousness.
From that day onward, the value of his orders grew. Some of them even forwent a deposit from him and
let him delay the material payment for six months.
In fact, he was able to slog through those rough days all thanks to Janice.
Harold then threw out another stack of pictures again. There were pictures of Kenneth getting drunk after meeting clients, and Janice was kneeling and kneading his legs.
There were also pictures of Jessica going on a family trip. Her bright smile was a stark contrast to his
situation.
Now, Kenneth finally realized that the person suffering with him wasnât Jessica, but Janice!
âDo you think that people will pay you respect once youâre driven out of the family and have moved to a new place? You should be grateful that they didnât take advantage of you. While you were out there working, Janice begged them behind your back so that you could run your business smoothly. And what
was the woman you love doing?
âShe was ready to run away at any time. She was afraid that you might not be able to rise back up again, so she kept wanting money from you to buy houses for herself and her family. She brought them on trips and bought them luxury goods. You see her as your whole world, but she sees you as a cash cow.â
Despite Haroldâs soft voice, it hit home.
Kennethâs head was buzzing.
Jessica hurriedly explained, âHubby, itâs not like that. Dad just hates me so much. Those pictures are
edited. I didnât do those things.â
Kenneth pointed at the dates on the pictures. âAre those edited as well?â
âYes. Editing technology has advanced a lot nowadays. Itâs even able to add a date. You know what kind
of person I am. Donât you believe in me? Besides, itâs not like you donât know Janiceâs character. Why
would she do something and not ask for credit from you?â
No matter how hard Jessica tried to prove herself, it was useless.
Harold snorted coldly. âEdited? I have a lot of evidence like this. Just name it and I can show it to you.â
Edmund added, âYes, Mr. Kenneth. I can vouch for that. After all, Mr. Harold was still worried about you
that year. So I was asked to protect you in the dark. Thatâs why I knew everything that Mrs. Miller and Ms.
Potts had done.
âIf you donât believe it, I can give you the memory card. Other than this, Ms. Potts intervened in a lot of
relevant matters. If Mr. Harold and Mrs. Miller didnât help you out in secret, you wouldâve gone broke
because of Ms. Pottsâ family.â
Kenneth was dumbstruck to learn that that was the truth.
