Chapter397
But he still hadn’t made any progress, and he still had to find a
way to keep blocking them, for as long as he could.
Terrence went back to the study and texted Michael, telling him.
to find out where Bethany’s father had gone as soon as possible.
He had to find Bethany’s father first, otherwise if Kyson or
Bethany saw Bethany’s adoptive father, they’d easily say that
Bethany wasn’t the Zavala family’s real daughter.
It was very likely to leak the news and make them suspicious.
After sending the message, Terrence looked at the photo album
in his hand and slowly opened it.
Most of them were photos of Daphne when she was little, with
little pigtails, big bright eyes, and a super radiant smile.
The whole vibe was like a well–behaved baby nourished by
love.
Such a girl had gone through so much pain. In that moment,
Terrence’s heart felt hollowed out. He just wished he could
make up for all the love she’d missed in those twenty years.
He actually ignored her for seven years without even realizing
- it. If he had known earlier and given her more warmth, would
they not have ended up like this?
If they got divorced, he might never be able to get this
relationship back.
She was like a migratory bird ready to take off. When the
chance came, she would definitely fly away without a trace.
A sudden phone ring interrupted Terrence’s thought.
It was a call from Lucian.
“Terrence, why haven’t you contacted about that show we were
supposed to make? Don’t tell me you still want that one?”
“Not really,”
Kyson got involved, and he didn’t want to step in again, so he
wouldn’t piss Kyson off.
About Daphne, he already felt really sorry for Kyson. If Kyson
liked the movie and wanted to do it, just let him do it.
“That’s good then. If Kyson wanted to invest, just let him do it. If
you wanted to help Krista, just use that upcoming show.
They’ve almost found an investor and are asking about our
interest. If you wanted to do it, contact them as soon as possible.”
“Okay”
That upcoming movie, since Kyson was his brother–in–law, he
let it go.
He could have given the movie to Krista to produce, and as for what kind of results she could get, it would have depended on
her real skills.
“Heard you didn’t show up in court for the divorce case that
day, and even used Daphie’s news to threaten Bethany?”
“Kyson told you?”
“Mm.” Lucian was quiet for a while, then said, “Well, I feel like
Kyson was giving you a chance. If you kept not saying
anything, he’d probably tell your family, and also tell my
parents. Then both our families‘ elders would definitely go put
pressure on the McConnell family. Did you think about that?”
I thought about it.
How could I not have thought about it?
At worst, I just bit the bullet and kept quiet.
What else could they do to him.
Chapter397
Kyson hadn’t told them until now, probably because he figured
he wouldn’t say anything.
“No problem, if he wanted to push, let him push. I said I’d talk
after a month, so it’s after a month. No one could make me
change my mind.”
“Alright, alright, if you don’t want to say it, then don’t. But just
tell me one thing, is she married now? If she’s married, I won’t
have to worry about waiting for her to come back. My family
was pushing me to get married.”
“Relax, she got married.”
Chapter398
Terrence couldn’t wait to get rid of this childhood engagement
with Lucian.
It really was a headache. After it became a fact that Bethany
was Daphne, more and more things kept coming up that drove
him crazy.
He knew it was a drink poison to quench thirst move, but he
still did it.
“Since that’s the case, just let it out. You already went to file for
divorce anyway. Do you really think there’s still a chance to
save your marriage with Bethany this month? If you keep doing
this, it’ll only make Bethany hate you more. I don’t think you’re
the type to do something that’s not worth it.”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
“I wasn’t making things up, even if you wanted to delay your
marriage a bit more, you shouldn’t use Daphie’s situation as
leverage to threaten. Back then, didn’t Daphie get lost because
she was bringing you a cake? The Duarte family was so
desperate to find her, and Mrs. Duarte was really sick. Didn’t
you feel guilty hiding all this?”
