My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 993:

Jacob offered a polite smile, his voice carrying a note of relief. “You’re too kind, Kody. My wife and I have always admired the Morrison family’s integrity, which is why we came to you first upon arriving in Isonridge.” His smile faltered slightly, and he hesitated before adding, “But this isn’t about business. It’s a personal matter—one that concerns our family.”

But what made this case even more shocking was the fact that Kelsey’s mother had already had children. How could she walk away and leave them behind?
