Chapter 390 Do You Think You’re in as Much Trouble as I Am?
Oliver had been staying with Fiona at the Duncan Residence since leaving the hospital. However, Fiona took pity on Jordan, who kept squalling for his mother every single day. Seeing that Scott was unable to calm the boy down, she put him up in her yard so that Scott could get some rest. As a result, though, Oliver felt slighted.
One day, Jordan once again refused to eat dinner. After he sobbed himself to sleep, Fiona made a cup of steaming hot banana oatmeal porridge by blending milk, oatmeal, and bananas together. Then, she popped the baby bottle containing the porridge in Jordan’s mouth while he was asleep. It wasn’t until she had watched him finish half of the porridge that she closed the door with her mind at ease and let him sleep.
Oliver was jealous when he saw Fiona centering her life around Jordan all day long. “Mom, are you gonna forget about your son now that you have a grandson? I’ll be going overseas in a few months, you know?”
Fiona glared at him crossly. “Oh, come on, why don’t you think about how much trouble you’ve caused instead? You knew who Jordan’s mother was from the beginning. Why didn’t you speak out about it?”
Oliver hung his head at the mention of this. “I couldn’t say anything at the time. Well, I did get to speak afterward, but it wouldn’t be right of me to sell Courtney out, right? She’s my sis, after all.”
“Well, in any case, you should’ve at least told me to let us prepare ourselves.” Fiona sat down on the sofa and looked at her son across from her. This time, she was really angry. “Just look at what you’ve done. You secretly helped that starlet dig into Courtney’s background. If it weren’t for you, nothing would’ve happened to Louis. Alex would’ve found out something, and the situation wouldn’t have dragged on until now…”
At the end of the day, Oliver was indeed responsible for everything that had happened back then. If it weren’t for him, the matter wouldn’t have become so complicated in the first place. Perhaps Alexander would’ve managed to pump the truth out of Louis, and everything would’ve been different.
Oliver felt aggrieved as well, though. “Hey, I admitted my mistakes already, okay? And besides, I’ve been avoiding Alex since the eve of the mid-winter holiday whenever he comes to visit Jordan. Judging by how things look, I’m afraid I’m not gonna be meeting him before I go overseas a few months later. Well, it’s fine that I’m not gonna meet him, though. Otherwise, I’m gonna be in trouble if he sees me and is reminded of what has happened.”
Suddenly, a chilly male voice at the door responded to Oliver’s self-pitying remarks. “Do you think you’re in as much trouble as I am?”
“Alex?”
“Alex!”
