Chapter 328
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
âI wouldnât meet up with her if it wasnât because she was close with your uncle Quentin.â After Cyrene got out of the car, the car suddenly became silent. Chandler was sitting upright, eyes half closed, thinking about something.
After a long time, he asked, âHow are you and Mr. Callahanâs daughter doing recently?â
His voice was as clear as a bell and sounded majestic. Although his face was rough and his hair was gray, there was a bright light behind his eyes as if they were showing his youth.
Upon receiving the question, Jackson unconsciously sat up straight in front of him.
âThat woman is easy. I didnât even have to bait her for her to be hooked. But⦠I donât plan to continue this thing between us. I heard her father is still involved in an old case this year and will retire soon.â
Jackson knew he was not going to get the promotion, so he naturally wanted nothing to do with the marriage.
Chandler frowned. âIs the source reliable?â
âHis daughter is the one who told me it, so yeah. I canât believe I wasted half of my year.â
Chandler furrowed his brows and did not speak. Keeganâs current status in Rivera was not to be underestimated. Chandler had already had some difficulty in dealing with it, so he had to focus on Jacksonâs marriage.
âHaving a powerful in-law can increase my chances of winning in many aspects. If Mr. Callahan is going to retire soon, then this marriage is indeed unnecessary. But, itâs not that easy to find another candidate for Jackson. Although there are many famous ladies in Rivera, not many come from aristocratic families with strong financial resources.â
âDad, I heard that Wenham is back. His youngest daughter fell ill when she participated in a charity event, and she has been recuperating at home recently. Mom and Wenham are still somewhat related.
Shall we go and visit?â
Chandler looked up at him and said, âJaylene is not Wenhamâs biological daughter.â
Jackson chuckled. âHe moved most of his family overseas in order to treat Jayleneâs illness. Is it really that important if sheâs not his biological daughter?â
Chandler was silent for a long time before he said, âLetâs talk about this matter later. Right now, do your job well, and donât let your grandma down.â
Jackson withdrew his excitement and replied in a low voice, âOkayâ¦â
The next day, Aurora took the fertility medication given by Dahlia to Keeganâs place. She deliberately picked a time when Keegan was not around. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw an old man wearing a baggy white tank top and a straw hat, digging soil in the garden with a small hoe.
Aurora was startled. She soon came back to her senses and yelled, âHey! Thief! What are you doing here?â
Arthur flipped the brim of his hat and glanced at Aurora. He then frowned and said, âWhat a rude young lady. Who are you calling a thief?â
âYouâre the one whoâs being rude, you stinky old man. What are you holding in your hand, huh? Why are you digging secretly in my yard?â
Arthur was mad when he heard that. âThis is my great-granddaughterâs home. Iâm planting something here. Who the hell are you to come here and yell at me?â
âGreat-granddaughter..?â Aurora then responded, âSo⦠youâre from the Jewell family?â
