Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 4 Mr. Park Is Here

Annalise interjected before Kent could finish his sentence, “Yes. I know about Mr. Parks and Abigail’s engagement.”

Half a year ago, when Kent went on a business trip to Jadeborough, he had helped an elderly by chance. The elderly man he helped turned out to be none other than the patriarch of the Parks family, Samuel Parks.

Samuel thought Kent was a kind-hearted man, so he asked if the latter had a daughter and inquired how old she was, as Samuel had a grandson who was still unmarried.

Kent immediately agreed to the suggestion after he knew that the old man was a member of the Parks family. He did not even ask about Samuel’s grandson’s age or health condition.

Annalise remembered how Kent had related the story to them back then. He told them he had helped that old man only because he saw that the latter was clad in expensive clothes and had an extraordinary air about

him.

Seeing Samuel passing out after exiting the bank, Kent had helped the old man up just as over a dozen bodyguards immediately rushed over to protect Samuel. Judging by that unusual scene, Kent reckoned the old man’s identity had to be remarkable.

Hence, when Samuel mentioned marriage, Kent agreed at once.

Initially, Abigail was thrilled as well when she heard that she would be marrying a man from a wealthy family in Jadeborough.

However, she regretted it after she requested her friend to ask around and found out that the eldest son of the Parks family was fifty-two years old and disabled.

“Anna, Abbie and Benjamin are in love with one another. You know that they’ve been sleeping together as well. Our two families are already discussing their marriage, so I have no other choice but to let you fulfill the engagement with the Parks family from Jadeborough.”

Annalise stared at her uncle with an amused expression. “Abbie and Benjamin are in love with one another? You don’t have any other choice but to let me fulfill the engagement with the Parks family from Jadeborough? Uncle Kent, are you talking about Benjamin Quigley when you mentioned Benjamin?”

“That’s right.”

“Riddle me this. Why is Abbie in love with my boyfriend? Is it because we did not announce our relationship to the media, or is it due to the infrequency I’ve brought him home for meals together?”

Kent was stumped. He rubbed his nose awkwardly.

Abigail was displeased. She said haughtily, “Anna, I’m sorry, but Benjamin and I could not contain our feelings for one another. We’ve been together for so long. Perhaps I’m even carrying his child now.”
