Chapter 188

“But I know you’re different from those scumbags. Buy me a big house when you grow up.”

Jacob knew she didn’t believe him–after all, he was just a kid.

“Alright.”

After agreeing, he decided to give Katherine some money tonight since he’d been staying at her place.

Next, Katherine started figuring out how to send Jacob to Maureen’s place.

She had no idea her apartment was already being watched.

Geoffrey confirmed Jacob and Ethan were different children–twins.

Yet one stayed with Katherine while the other lived with Zoe.

What did that mean?

Bitter wind mixed with snowflakes bit through the night, but Geoffrey stood motionless under a tree, numb to the cold.

His bodyguard delivered investigation files overnight. Pages detailed Katherine’s life abroad since leaving.

She’d kept to herself–no boyfriends, let alone children!

Meaning both boys were Maureen’s!

Then why had she lied to him?

Geoffrey lit a cigarette. After two shallow drags, violent coughs racked his chest.

His driver rushed out. “Sir, should we head back?”

“No.”

Perhaps only this biting cold could keep his mind sharp.
