Madam Ester spoke in a panicked, sharp tone, making Brielle freeze on the other end of the line.“How are we supposed to deal with your problem if we don’t act quickly? We can’t let them hold their wedding reception before we do something!”“W-what?! Aren’t they fighting? And Jenny isn’t even with Jackson! Mother, you must be joking,” Brielle exclaimed after regaining her voice. She had been planning her move for days, and that afternoon she only needed to attend her appointment and then execute her grand scheme.“What would I gain by joking?!” Madam Ester snapped. “Get ready and pick me up right now. We’re going to the hospital immediately. We don’t have much time left!”“That’s impossible, Mother. The appointment can’t be moved earlier. You know how hard it was to schedule with that doctor.”“Then change doctors!” Madam Ester barked, growing more impatient.“I–I can’t, Mother.”Brielle’s voice trembled. There was something she was hiding from her mother, something that made it impos

Andara, startled by how close they’d come to being sideswiped, immediately slowed down and drove more cautiously, following his president’s earlier command. But the same couldn’t be said for the car ahead — the decorated wedding car — which had lost control after being struck violently from behind.A deafening crash echoed in their ears as the decorated car spun out of control and veered sharply off the road.Brummhh! Brasskkk!In an instant, the vehicle slammed into the curb, flipped over several times, and finally came to a halt on the opposite side of the road — completely wrecked and mangled beyond recognition.Several of Jackson’s bodyguards, who had been escorting from behind, immediately gave chase to the car that had deliberately rammed the wedding vehicle. It was just as Jackson had feared — something he had already warned his men about earlier, instructing them to stay alert and act swiftly if anything suspicious occurred.Earlier that night, after Jennyfer had fallen asleep

“Oh my, your wedding reception turned out to be so grand and festive! They said it was only prepared recently, but how could it be this luxurious, Jackson?”Grandma Hima asked, her face radiating pure joy. Her smile hadn’t faded for even a second since earlier.“You don’t really know who Jackson is, Mother. He’s truly an extraordinary man. Andreas is lucky to have a son-in-law like him.”It wasn’t Jackson who replied — Mr. Andreas immediately answered the question with pride.“Hahaa!”Everyone burst out laughing, though it was clear that a few of them laughed without sincerity.“Yes, yes, that’s true. I don’t know Jackson that well yet. But from now on, I’ll make sure to get to know him better,” Grandma Hima said with a soft chuckle.“Of course, Grandma. You can stay at my residence for as long as you wish — that way you’ll get to know me better and we can grow closer. Besides, my home is quiet and not crowded,”Jackson, who had only been chuckling quietly, suddenly spoke, responding

“Yes, I’ve been waiting for this moment on purpose. Obviously, after this, Jenny’s life will end tragically. There’s no way she can accept that Jackson has gotten me pregnant. Hahaa! Clearly, I’m the only one worthy of being by Jackson’s side. When that time comes, I’ll give you money for free every month. I’ll be rich soon, and tens of millions a month will mean nothing to me then. But you must not say anything about our past relationship. Understand?!”Brielle explained at length, listing all the benefits Jacob would receive later.Jacob fell silent again. He nodded after a while, though he looked hesitant about his decision.Ever since he saw the news spreading a few hours ago, Jacob had been in shock. He kept calculating the timeline of his time with Jennyfer and realized it matched the time they had first been together. The sudden news of the pregnancy had truly shaken him. No wonder he had felt something different in Brielle’s body when they were intimate yesterday — and strange

“DNA test?!”Brielle looked startled when her mother entered the room and told her the reason behind Jennyfer and Jackson’s visit that morning.At first, Jackson and Jennyfer had planned to go straight to Bramasta’s apartment. But Jennyfer insisted that Jackson should check her mother’s house first. She knew how much her mother loved her older sister, and she had a gut feeling that her mother already knew everything—and that Brielle must be there right now.As soon as Madam Ester saw Jackson’s car parked in front of her house, she immediately ordered Brielle, who was having breakfast in the dining room, to hide in her bedroom.When the door opened and Jackson saw Madam Ester’s pale, panicked face, he didn’t waste time with pleasantries. He directly asked where Brielle was, saying that he wanted to take her for a DNA test. That statement instantly made Madam Ester’s lips curl into a satisfied smile.Of course she was happy. If Jackson had taken the initiative to do a DNA test, it meant
