Chapter 831: Chapter 831: When Jacob Initially Wanted to Get Rid of Her
Making a pregnant woman eight months along wait for two hours, Jacob Clark’s heart was truly callous.
Enna Clark couldn’t imagine what kind of emotions her mom must have been feeling while waiting outside for those long two hours.
The man she deeply loved was actually not at all as he appeared, yet with her belly grown big, she had become the mistress in everyone’s eyes. She had to bear the immense pressure and the disdainful looks from those around her, all just to find the man who deceived her, to demand an explanation.
However, that man treated her with extreme indifference and even left her to go to a meeting.
From beginning to end, there was not the slightest hint of guilt, as if from the start, she somehow deserved it all.
Enna truly couldn’t imagine what that would feel like; if it were her, she surely wouldn’t be able to bear it.
“Your mom came into my office timid and hesitant, I became even more suspicious that she was coerced by her sister to come ask me for money, so my attitude became even worse. But I thought, I did owe her, so I still took a card out of my wallet and gave it to her…”
Upon hearing this, Enna looked at him with a scornful glance.
Jacob Clark feeling sorry? What a joke!
This man gave money to her mom only because he thought her mom was there to ask him for money, fearful that she would make a scene at the company and damage his reputation.
He had deceived her emotionally, taken everything, left someone else pregnant, yet he managed to absolve himself completely, as if he truly was the one seduced!
If it hadn’t been for the accidental eavesdrop on Auntie’s blackmailing call to Jasmine Clark, she would still be in the dark, truly believing that her mom was a mistress, the one who destroyed someone else’s family.
Jacob had done such shameless, unconscionable deeds, yet he could still throw the blame onto an innocent woman for twenty years, and even now, he showed no sign of realizing his own fault, still talking about being asked for money, money…
Is money that important?
She admitted, money is important!
But even if money is very important to every person, it cannot be more important than family, than life, right?
Yet Jacob regarded it as more important than life itself!
For money, he would stop at nothing!
Jacob saw the mockery in her eyes, as if through his few sentences, she had seen through the filthy thoughts in his heart, and for a second he almost couldn’t face her gaze. Then he managed to squeeze out a tiny smile and continued, “But your mom didn’t take the card, she returned it to me. Then, caressing her belly, she told me firmly and gently that she was going to give birth to you, didn’t want me to provide for you, and was planning to raise you on her own. She hoped I would not disturb you in the future, lest the surrounding gossip would affect your childhood and leave you with childhood trauma.”
Enna’s heart felt as though it had been sliced by a knife, aching intensely. She looked at the man across from her and asked pointedly, “So, when you gave my mom the card, besides wanting to shut my mom up, you also wanted her to abort me, right?”
Jacob didn’t expect her to be so clever. He had not said it, but Enna was able to deduce the truth that was very close to the actual facts from his words.
Indeed, when he gave Matheo Lewis money, it was indeed partly to keep her quiet, and partly to eliminate the problem completely by asking Matheo to terminate the pregnancy.
