Jack Harlow Parents Novels & Stories

Harald Jake Gardner told his story with an intensity that set the surrounding air on fire. I had already known, in part, what he was going to say, but hearing it from his own mouth was much more brutal than I could have imagined. He started with the name that made me cringe in my seat: Henry Gardner. Jake's father. A man who, twenty years ago, had tried to do what no one else had the courage to do—challenge the Mortons

Everyone is judging the other — the price of their dresses, the brand of their watches, the hairstyle… Everyone is looking for something to criticize the next day. Harvey greets a few parents he knows, and they ask him about his father. Of course, he pretends he and the Chairman have a good relationship and lies saying they make a video call every day since he left for his business trip. Some mothers show off their daughters to impress him. Little did they know, Harvey is as straight as a circle. "Well, well, well!" The last person he wanted to meet stopped in front of him. "Your dad isn't here tonight? Again?" Hunter scoffs.

Calvin said to make Harold feel better, he is a bit awkward. "Father, they are my family, this is my dad, brother Jayden, and sister Sally." Dante introduces them, Harold shakes hands with Grandpa Jarius, Hazel, and Calvin as he makes his way to the couch at the Private ward. "We finally met, I am sorry about what happened earlier between my son and your daughter, I would have come earlier to apologize for his..." "It's fine, I no longer hold grudges against him, after all, he is our son-in-law by the way, call me Grandpa Jarius, and my son, Calvin." Grandpa Jarius stops him, and Harold smiles.

“So what’s the big news?” Mom smiles, looking excited. “Wait, let me do this properly,” Dad says and pauses before looking directly at Harvey. “Harvey, son, your mom and I are done waiting. Five years ago, you were in a different place and didn’t even want to talk about settling down. And we understood. You were going through something and as your parents, we did everything we could to show you that you weren’t alone…” Harvey looks at them suspiciously. “Guys, where are you going with this?”

"Harriet, just look at your father!" The gallery was packed with the heads of powerful families, all eager to watch me, the rebel, get what they believed I deserved. The family lawyer, a man my father paid well, rose to deliver a stirring speech: "John Harlow, a father who gave everything to raise his daughter, to give her the honor of our name. And now, as she enjoys her success, she turns her back on her paralyzed father, breaking the most sacred of vows. Such betrayal is beyond forgiveness!"

She was still obsessed with trying to control other people's lives. Her fellow inmates called her the 'Keyboard Warrior'. Callum had it even worse in the men's prison. He had offended many people while trying to please Sienna and had even helped her handle some shady finances. Now, without the Harlow family's protection, all his past misdeeds came back to haunt him. Meanwhile, the Harlow family finally returned to peace. After everything that happened, my parents seemed to age ten years overnight. They felt deeply guilty toward me, believing their negligence had let the wolf through the door. To make amends, Dad retired early and handed full control of Harlow Corporation over to me.

Kent teased, referring to Jarrel, who also happened to be his friend. Kai knew her relationship with Jarrel wasn’t a secret, but for some reason, her parents never seemed to approve of him. And no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t understand why. Jarrel loved her. He came from a wealthy family. He owned a business. He was a good catch—a husband material, even. Yet, her parents never warmed up to him. “Just like you, that’s why I don’t like that man,” her mother suddenly announced, her words hitting Kai like a slap.

Kane smiled and said, "Well done. Being able to rise after setbacks truly proves you're my son. Oh, and on your way out, please ask Serena to come in." Harvey nodded in agreement and quickly left the Weller family's living room. The moment he stepped out, his loyal smile vanished, replaced by an icy, venomous expression. Outside the hall, an attractive woman in a form-fitting dress waited. Her alluring figure was highlighted by the dress, exuding a seductive charm. This was Serena Halbert, Harvey's stepmother, and Kane's second wife. Upon seeing Harvey, she anxiously asked, "What were you and your dad arguing about? We could hear the shouting from out here."

She just needed a taste now and then to keep her going. My parents came for a visit, and Harlow was the most nervous I had ever seen. She almost chewed a hole through her lip, biting at it. My parents stayed longer than they initially said; they wanted to get to know their son’s mate. They loved her like I knew they would, and she loved them right back.

Tyler’s family, the Grants, had once had deep ties to organized crime. After going legitimate, they turned their old network into a private intelligence and investigations firm, which Tyler now ran. Once Eric had given him the details, he finished his cigarette but made no move to go back inside. Instead, he lit another. A moment later, his expression went blank.
