Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 291 291: I was robbed

"Sometimes it's best to let people believe what they see. Even if I sought to clear my name, my parents would still not return. If they hadn't consented to me, maybe they would still be alive and not slaughtered in such a cruel manner," Jonathan said, his tone tinged with guilt as he remembered seeing his brother shoot them from the shadows.

"It happened so quickly that not only did his thinking freeze, but his entire body went numb. Their lifeless body still haunts me to this day, and it is what has caused me to hate myself for not being a good son."

Eveline listened carefully and gradually understood what he meant. However, loving someone was not a fault. It was the wrong person who took out his rage on someone who actually treated him as their child. Unfortunately, he was unable to digest it.

Eveline rose up, took a big breath, and approached her father.

Walking around, she threw her arm around his neck from behind and kissed his cheek.

"You are the best son, husband, and parent a girl could ask for. I am so proud of you, dad, but please don't blame yourself for anything that happened since Jedrick would have found another means to fulfill his ulterior intentions," she guaranteed, making Jonathan emotional with her comments.

"I'm sure grandpa and grandma will be proud of you, too," she said, watching him nod in response.

Jonathan's heart was filled with emotion. Every day, he missed his parents' assurance that he could keep going as long as they supported him.

'But don't worry, dad, I'll make sure the person who harmed you is punished,' his eyes gleamed with determination, a newfound resolve coursing through his heart.

After spending some time with their daughter, the Willows decided to leave, but on their way out, Eveline stopped Blake.

"Grandpa Blake, there is something I want to ask you." Blake halted, a confused expression on his face.

"Yes"

"It's about the deal. Did you ask Roger to sign the agreement in your absence?" Eveline enquired.

Blake considered for a bit before nodding."I did, but I was confident Gabriel would not sign it in my absence. So I am delighted we have yet to complete the procedure."

Eveline gave a sigh of relief. She was delighted to hear about it, but she was now concerned that this step of his would land him in problems.

"Grandpa, are you sure you want to work for Winston's?" I mean, aren't you concerned about Jedrick discovering your motives?" She queried, doubtfully.

Blake chuckled at her comments. "He already knows it, which is why he tried to kill me by changing those medicines," Eveline said, gaping at him.

"So it was him-"
