The Wrong Woman

Chapter 1064

Carol's voice was fraught with anger. "If he truly is General Morrison's son, then you're certainly marrying into a different world! How could this possibly end well? Have his parents been informed? What do they think?"

"We didn't inform them earlier. They just found out," Imogen replied calmly.

Carol's fury intensified upon hearing this. She slapped Imogen's arm in frustration, shouting, "You foolish child! How could you disrespect the Morrison family like this!"

Imogen winced, holding her arm in pain.

Jasper became concerned and swiftly embraced Imogen, shielding her protectively. He addressed Carol with a serious tone, "Mom, let's discuss this calmly. There's no need for physical aggression." Startled by Jasper's firmness, Carol quickly stepped back, her voice now timid. "I'm sorry! I... I'll speak calmly, I promise. Please... please don't be upset."

Jasper couldn't help but detect the anxiety and caution in Carol's tone.

Despite being Jasper's parents-in-law, Gregory and Carol now appeared unusually subdued and cautious in their mannerisms.

Their demeanor had shifted to one of increased deference and politeness.

Jasper found this change unsettling.

"Mom, Dad, you don't need to be afraid of me. I'm just a regular person. I'm your son-in-law, remember?"

Gregory swallowed nervously and hastily added, "No, no, you're far from ordinary."

Upon hearing this, Jasper sighed softly in resignation.
