Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 327 327: I hope this isn't one of his scheme

Jedrick stared blankly at the contract before him. It was surprising that Hayes chose to continue working with them.

The decision was sceptical, but he was amazed that someone like Marcus Hayes believed in him.

After clearing his name, Jedrick was suspicious that Hayes International would back out of the agreement they proposed to Larson's group, but they did not.

"Good, I need to keep them all close to me." He murmured and reached for the coffee cup.

With one leg crossed over the other, he sat back on the couch and took a sip.

"I now need to trick Mischelle into believing my lies. But it will only happen when I am able to contact her," he scoffed, recalling how she abandoned him yesterday.

They were meant to meet, but she did not show up, which derailed his plans.

Jedrick had no idea she was close with the Hayes family until he discovered her daughter was the one Stefan adored. It was a win-win situation since he decided to utilize her as a pawn in his games.

But he didn't anticipate Mischelle would be so difficult to acquire.

"You truly are something, Mischelle," he continued, a smile spreading across his lips as he remembered that night with her.

Though he was high on drugs and needed someone to fulfill his thirst, her so-called friend duped her into sleeping with him. It was the finest sex he'd ever had, but the next morning he found himself in the hospital, only to discover that the drugs had triggered a serious reaction that had cost him his fertility.

Following that day, Jedrick never used drugs again, although he did grow his business without informing anyone. His secret was safe with him; not even those close to him knew.

And he intended to maintain it that way unless he annihilated his so-called brother.

Jedrick tried contacting Mischelle again, but the phone was turned off.

"I cannot let you ignore me, Mischelle. You have to come to me," he mumbled, determined to contact the lady.

Jonathan's eyes were fixed on the reports. No one could tell what was going through his thoughts, but the way he kept cool made him wonder if the finding disturbed him at all.

"He had fooled everyone. How can he be my father if he can't even reproduce?" Eveline asked, capturing her father's attention.

Erna was equally surprised by the latest revelation. She attempted to make sense of everything by forcing herself to think deeply but she couldn't.
