Female Novel
Chapter 691
"Whatever, I don't care,"Jefferey said with a dismissive wave.
All that mattered was that Karen's kids didn't hold a grudge against him. Everything else was trivial.
Jeffrey, a fixture in high society, knew the drill about out-of-wedlock children—it was more commonthan not. People hardly batted an eye anymore.
He had just one; heck, there were families out there with seven or eight. Was he expected topainstakingly raise every single love child?
"You seriously don't give a damn about our daughter? She's your own flesh and blood."
"You had her without my consent, and now you're trying to force me to give her fatherly love? Whata joke," Jeffrey said with frustration. Just the thought of this unexpected child was enough to givehim a headache, let alone any feelings of affection.
Ever since he found out, Jeffrey couldn’t help but think about Karen's reaction.
"You can deny her all you want, but she's still your daughter. Jeffrey, I want you entangled with mefor life. I want that woman to feel the thorn in her side forever."
"Do I look like a pushover to you, Paige?" Jeffrey’s voice was cold as he stepped closer to her.
"What are you going to do to me?"
"Don't test my limits. If Karen leaves me because of this, I don't know what I'll do. Maybe I can makesure you and the kid disappear."
Paige trembled, her skin breaking out in goosebumps.
"You would disown your own daughter for a woman?"
"With a mother so desperate, I can't expect much from the kid. I couldn't care less."
"Jeffrey, you've lost your mind."
He scoffed, straightening his suit jacket. "I'll let you know when to get the DNA test. Don't try anytricks. Think about it—if this gets out, we both lose. But at worst, I lose a fiancée. You, on the otherhand, stand to lose much more."
Silence.
"If the test proves she's mine, hand her over. I'll pay you off, and you can take the money and nevercome back to Eldorria City." he paused, "If she's not..."
He had made it clear. He'd show no mercy to a liar.novelbin
"She's yours. I've never been with another man. You could kill me, and my story won't change. I justunderestimated how cold you are. I thought you'd be kinder for our child's sake. Instead, you wantto take her away."
"Take her away?" Jeffrey laughed bitterly. "Wasn't it you who came to me, desperate? Don’t flatteryourself, thinking I want to bring her into the Turner family. She doesn't deserve it. I just don't wantto be controlled, that's all."
Paige couldn’t imagine her daughter taken away from her, and what might happen.
"Your fiancée is no saint. She'd never treat my child right."
"You’re worrying about the wrong things," Jeffrey said sternly, looking down on her. "Think about it—your family's chain of hotels could collapse overnight because of this. Your Taylor family will paydearly for stealing my seed."
"This has nothing to do with my parents. They don't even know about the child."
"So, stay away from Karen. If she breaks up with me, I'll make sure the Taylor family regrets it asmuch as I do."
