Chapter 8

"Are you sure you got it right?"

"Yes. Although Naomi's mother had passed away ten years ago, she had always been living with her father, Scott Green."

That meant that it was impossible for Naomi to be at the Spring Orphanage.

"Okay." Jack retracted his gaze. He was no longer interested in the thick stack of documents.

"Sir, wasn't the girl at the orphanage back then Miss May? Why are you still looking into Naomi? Also, this girl…" Sean was hesitant.

"Continue." Jack swept him a gaze and Sean immediately let it all out.

"From what I researched, Naomi is not worthy to be with you! She fights and bullies in school! She drinks, smokes, and fools around! Her father's reputation isn't any better either!

"I suspect she intentionally appeared at that bar to set you up in marriage. I'm guessing she will be extremely demanding later! What well-mannered girl would appear outside the men's toilet at a bar?"

Sean babbled non-stop. Jack furrowed his brows tightly. Coincidentally, right at that moment, a message appeared on his phone on the desk. It was from Naomi.

Jack quickly glanced through the message. When he saw the message that said, [I have things to discuss with you], his cold hard face darkened. Even until the screen of his phone went off, he did not reply at all.

"Sir, this marriage is too reckless. Do you want to…"

Bam!

While Sean was still talking, the office door suddenly opened!

Smith, the butler of Hough Mansion entered and looked at Jack.

"Sir."

Sean raised his eyebrows in shock. "Mister Smith, why are you here?"

Smith was Old Mister Hough's personal butler. He rarely left the Hough Mansion unless it was an emergency.

"Old Mister Hough knows that you're busy, so he sent me to deliver a message."

Jack looked impatient when he heard what Smith said.

"Has he not seen the marriage certificate?"

"He did, he did. He was extremely delighted. It's just that…" Smith immediately replied. He was halfway when he hesitated a little.

He cleared his throat. Then, he imitated Old Mister Hough and pointed at Jack's nose. He roared out angrily!

"Bloody brat! How dare you act before telling me! Bring your wife and let me have a look!"

Three seconds of total pin-drop silence surrounded the office.

Jack's expressions were extremely cold. He was emitting a tyrannical aura that was very suffocating.

Sean suppressed his laughter so much that his face blushed red. He secretly gave Smith a thumbs up.

The poor Smith was sweating profusely. He apologized carefully. "Sir, Old Mister Hough forced me to do it. He said that if he doesn't see his granddaughter-in-law tomorrow at the family gathering, he will refuse to do his checkups and get treated. You know how he is. He is a man of his word…"

"Okay!" Jack's tone was filled with anger. Old Mister Hough was his grandfather and closest family. He had to care about him.

"Then, I'll head home to make preparations." Once Smith got Jack's agreement, he immediately smiled and left.

"Sir, you should get a divorce before Old Mister Hough sees Naomi. She is clearly up to no good!" The moment Smith left, Sean immediately tried to persuade Jack.

Jack lowered his head. The pen that Jack was holding snapped.

"Get Troy."

Sean's eyes immediately sparkled. He said excitedly, "Okay, I'll get him over now!"

Troy Nolan was the head lawyer for the Hough Corp. In addition to corporate law, he was the best at divorce lawsuits!
