Falling for the rejected son-in-law のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

The room was filled with tension as Andrew and Jada locked eyes in a silent standoff. Mr. Hudson's face contorted with frustration as he tried to mediate the situation. "Enough, both of you!" he barked. "This is not the time or the place for this confrontation. We will address these issues in due time, but for now, I demand that we all calm down and leave this meeting." But Andrew was too embarrassed to back down. He had sworn that he was going to get justice, but instead, he was being humiliated even more, and his little bruised ego wouldn't allow him to let go. "Father, you either make Jada knee, or I will." Andrewlashed out, and a scoff left Jada's lips at how ridiculous he sounded. Clutching the chair arm a bit tighter, Mr. Hudson looked at his son with exasperation and disappointment. The tension in the room had reached its peak, but Jada was not flinching at her uncle's flaring nose. "Andrew, I understand your concerns, but this is not the way to resolve our family issues,"

As Andrew groaned out in pain, refusing to answer her, Jada looked at him with a mischievous glint in her eyes as she leaned in closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "So, Uncle Andrew," she said, her tone exaggeratedly sweet, "do you think I should break up with Chase?" The question hung in the air for a moment, and the room fell silent as she added, "Which is which? You want me to dumb him or him to leave me... But honestly, either way, you will be getting your wish, right?" With her head held high, Jada stood at the center of the bustling lobby of ADs Group, her heart pounding in her chest. She had just uttered a provocative question to her uncle, and she waited for him to argue. Suddenly, her tone shifted from mockery to sincerity. "I love Chase," she declared, her gaze fixed on him. "More than anything or anyone in this world. He's the reason I smile every day, the person who fills my life with laughter and joy. And I'm not letting go of him for anything." When Jada and he

In the silence, Jada, Rolex, and Rob stood frozen in the dimly lit living room, their eyes locked onto Chase, sitting there, his glare piercing, sending shivers down their spines. As the adrenaline that had surged through their veins moments ago began to subside, Rob and Rolex exchanged uneasy glances. They were faithful to Chase and devoted to their roles as his most trusted guards. But now, under his intense scrutiny, they felt like they were walking on thin ice. "Master, we are loyal to you," Rob stammered, his voice quivering with anxiety. Their words seemed to fall on deaf ears as Chase remained silent, his stern expression unyielding. The room seemed to grow colder, and fear tightened its grip on both Rob and Rolex. Jada watched the tense exchange, her thoughts racing, and she pondered, 'It seems like he's not mad at me but at them. Why though? Rob and Rolex seemed to be his best men because he trusted these two to carry me places without requesting more men to go after me.

The sun dipped below the rolling hills of the Napa Valley, casting long shadows across the lush vineyards as Andrew drove his black BMW car down the winding road. Even though he was not invited, he was still headed to a wine-tasting event hosted by his close business friend, Lucas, because he figured his invite got lost in the mail. The event was held at a magnificent chateau nestled amidst the vineyards. Andrew's heart raced as he pulled into the grand driveway, surrounded by luxury cars and elegant guests. He had been absent from gatherings like this for far too long, especially since the accident took place between Jada and him, and he felt a surge of ego boost as he approached the entrance. Inside the opulent tasting room, the atmosphere was electric. Glasses clinked, laughter filled the air, and the room buzzed with conversations about mergers, acquisitions, and market trends. Holding his head high, Andrew scanned the room, searching for familiar faces. He spotted Lucas, Stel

Keeping her silence, Jada's internal struggle weighed on her as she looked into Chase's eyes and then glimpsed at the sky with a deep sigh. "Nothing important," she finally replied, forcing a smile that didn't reach her eyes. She leaned in and kissed him gently, hoping her affection would mask the unease within her. "Just thinking about work. I have a big presentation today, and it's been stressing me out." The way she couldn't meet his gaze had Chase studying her with a knowing look, and then he let it go, saying, "You've been working long hours, Jada. I worry about you. Don't forget to take care of yourself." His concern touched her, but it also added to her guilt. She kissed him again and said, "I promise, once this project is over, I'll take a break. But for now, I've got to go." Reluctantly, Chase released her, and Jada went into the bedroom to get ready for work. As she dressed, she couldn't help but replay her conversation with Chase in her mind. The weight of her secret, an
