Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 1740 An Opportunity to Express His Opinion

It did not make sense. Zorion was also mystified by her pregnancy.

Returning upstairs, Zorion called his two nephews over. He took out a few boxes of condoms from the

nightstand and asked them, "What's going on?"

The two children exchanged looks, as though they were considering whether to tell the truth. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Zorion became serious. "If you guys don't tell me, I'll check the surveillance footage later."

"We poured them out and punctured them with needles," Cedric answered. Zorion paused for a

moment and asked with a strange look on his face, "Who told you to do that?"

Zorion had to get to the bottom of this. Otherwise, Rossie would misunderstand and think that he

taught the two children to do it on purpose. That would be troublesome.

Rossie was lying on the bed. She was just fine, but they had made a big deal out of it and the entire

Atkinson family took her as an important person who needed protection.

Zorion also called the two children over and she was aware of why he was doing this. He wanted her to

know that it had nothing to do with him apart from contributing the sperm.

"When we saw them that day, we took them out to play with them. There was a needle over there. We

put one of them on the finger and pricked it. Later, we found the pricking sound funny, so we continued

to prick them more."

Heitor explained. The two children appeared to be amusing in Rossie's eyes and she chuckled while

listening to their words.

Rossie stretched out her hand to take over the box of condoms. She glanced at Zorion and opened it.

True enough, there were holes on all the condoms.

"Let's just forget it. However, don't tell anyone about it. If you do, Uncle Zorion may be even more

upset."

He had hid it from everyone else and had promised her not to impregnate her within five years. The

purpose of him questioning these two naive children was to give her an explanation.

That said, they hoped the outsiders would not know that he did not persist in this relationship. She had

always been the dominant one in this relationship.

Even if he was not given any chance to decide anything, Zorion was still willing to do it.

Although Zorion and Deanna had different views and behavior in their relationships, they were both

passive. They could give up everything for the one they loved, including their dignity.

Rossie was not a cold-hearted person. She was aware of that he had done for her. With all the love

and concern he had lavished on her, it would be enough to touch a stone, let alone a person.

The two children nodded vigorously. Rossie said, "This is a secret between the four of us. Go now, I will

placate your uncle later so that he won't go to your dad."

Upon hearing this, the two children turned and left at once. At usual times, their uncle wore a

condescending demeanor and was pretty fierce to their father.

The two children ran away. Zorion looked at the doorway briefly before looking at Rossie.

"The baby..."

"I will give birth to it and the baby can take your last name, but..."

"But what?"

"You have to marry me."

...

When Zorion went downstairs to announce that he was going to get married, Deanna looked up at him

and said glumly, "Why are you allowed to get married for the sake of the baby when I've been

forbidden? If you can get married, then I want to get married too. Otherwise, I won't let you do it. Don't

argue that I haven't discussed it with you, I did have a discussion with you. Give me my household

registration book or you can't get married either."

No one paid attention to Deanna. They completely ignored what she said. Everyone sat down together.

Lottie was on cloud nine and she told Zorion, "You don't have to worry about the marriage. I will handle

it with your father. However, you have to decide on a wedding date. I think you should get your

marriage certificate first."

"Okay mom."

Deanna was baffled. Was she adopted? Why were they like this?

She went upstairs furiously. She wasn't going to come down anymore. They were bullying her.

At night, Jacky took his clothes off and went to bed. He wrapped his arms around Deanna's slim waist

and was ready to do business with her.

Deanna was depressed. "I want to move out. I don't want to stay in this house anymore."

Jacky lay naked on one side. He was covered with a quilt as he hugged Deanna. When he heard what

she said, he turned and kissed her. "Where are you planning to move to?"

"Waverly Village."

...

"I'm working in Capital City so I won't be back until the weekend. If you stay in Waverly Village, what

should I do at night?"

"You can drive back or I can pick you up. I'm planning to take the children with me."

Deanna was going to pull out all the stops.

Jacky lay still for a while, "Give me some time to look around. Let's buy a house and move out."

"Great idea."

Deanna was looking forward to it. As for Jacky, he did not stay idle. Indeed, he had been searching for

a new house.

Lottie found out by chance. She hadn't expected them to actually move out from the house.

She purposely looked for Jacky to ask him about this. Jacky just said that they were moving out without

explaining further. He remained silent when she asked him why.

As a result, Lottie started to have sleepless nights.

"Why don't we let them get married at the same time as Zorion?"

Or else, it would remain a source of anxiety to her.

Rhys did not answer as he lay there. Lottie repeated her question, but he still did not answer.

It was not until she fell silent that Rhys said, "He has a different identity from the past. As a mere

gangster, he can get in and out of my place without being noticed. Now that he's a mayor, such a thing

won't be possible again. The important thing now is both of our status.

He isn't afraid of people gossiping about him, but he's worried that I will become the subject of local

gossip.

It won't be easy for him to take away my daughter. All eyes in Capital City are on him.

Regardless of his contributions to the city, some people aren't going to let him off.

Jepherson is the first target, and he will be the second.

He suggested moving out because he wants to keep me out of trouble."

Lottie was astounded. "Rhys, do you mean those people have already targeted Jacky and are trying to

take action against him?"

"Of course! Didn't you hear the news regarding Harvey Group's sexual assault scandal? What do you

think it was?

It's just a warning to them before the showdown begins."

Lottie did not speak and Rhys added, "But I am not a coward. They thought they could hurt me. What a

joke."

"Rhys..."

"Deanna and Jacky can't move out. Once they do so, there's no guarantee for their safety. They can't

get married either. If something does happen, we have to protect Jacky like our own.

As for Zorion, let's hold the wedding immediately."

Lottie remained silent. She had always trusted Rhys's gut.

The preparation for Zorion's wedding was going on in full swing.

The next day, Jepherson held a press conference to publicly admit the mistakes. All the implicated

employees were handed over to the Department of Justice and no one fled.

Their actions had been met with the media's approval. Some people commented online that the whole

entertainment industry was not clean and that the Harvey Group was not the only one involved. For a

time, there was an imposition of media law in Capital City.

In spite of all this, Jacky took no notice of it. On the day of Zorion's wedding, a reporter who was only

supposed to inquire about the wedding had asked Jacky about this matter when interviewing him.
