Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run

Chapter 76

The boy sprang up, snatching a nearby glass of water, and bolted over to Jade's table. His mom had assured him that once they duped this man, they'd become a family, and he would be the only child since they wouldn't want any more kids.

"Mom!" he yelled, dousing the man's head with water. "Mom, are you really going to ditch me after marrying this guy?"

Jade's makeup was impeccable, but panic flickered in her eyes. The drenched man stood up, furious. "Whose kid is this? Why's he calling you 'mom?""

The boy was used to causing a scene. He clung to Jade and wouldn't let go. "Mom, say something! Are you really going to abandon me?! I'll kill you both!"

Jade was distressed and pulled him away. "Let go! I'm not your mom!"

Just then, the man's phone beeped with a message. His face darkened as he read it, and he slapped Jade. “Jade, how dare you trick me?! Are you trying to make me the dad of your bastard? Dream on!"

Jade had been sweet-talking this guy for half a year. His family was worth millions, the best she could find. "Let me explain," she pleaded.

The boy wouldn't stop calling her mom. Everyone in the restaurant was watching, and the man felt utterly humiliated. He was ready to leave.
