Ex-husbands love novel (Sharon and Fameson) -
Chapter 77: Misunderstanding
The next day, just as Jameson went downstairs, Jacob ran over to him swiftly and said, "Mr.Proctor, something happened!"
Whether it was before or after their engagement, Martin had always been cold to Erica, and their families only regarded their marriage as a business cooperation, not caring about their feelings. The only one who took this engagement seriously was Erica.
She was afraid that Martin would dislike her and reject this marriage, but after the engagement, she had nothing to fear.
Sharon's pregnancy was like a thorn in her heart, and she blamed Martin's indifference and alienation on Sharon.
Sharon didn't get pregnant during the three-year marriage with Jameson.
How could she be pregnant after their divorce? Erica thought that Martin was likely to be the baby's father.
Early this morning, Erica made a scene at the dining table.
However, she was very smart.
She did not mention Sharon's name.
She only said that there was a woman who was pregnant with Martin's child, and she wanted Albert to help her get rid of the woman.
Even if Albert found out the woman that she talked about was Sharon, it had nothing to do with her.
When Albert heard Erica's words, he was ablaze with anger.
In fact, he didn't care about whether Martin and Erica loved each other.
However, Martin's affair would be a discredit to his family.
Moreover, it happened a few days after Martin and Erica were engaged.
At this critical juncture, it would affect the cooperation between the two families.
Jacob said, "Mr.Proctor wants an explanation. The Mortons are on their way to the old mansion."
Jameson asked calmly, "How did Erica know that?"
"I'm not sure yet. I'm going to investigate now.'
"No need."
Jameson walked out as he said in a cold voice, "I'll go ask her."
In the Proctor's Albert sat on the sofa silently with the walking stick in his hands, his face cold.
Erica, who was sitting opposite to him, was crying bitterly.Albert became impatient after a while.
"What's the use of crying now? You were determined to marry Martin. You know he doesn't like you.It is normal that he has an affair.' Erica sobbed, "That woman has been pestering him, and now she is pregnant. They don't care about my feelings.'
Albert shouted angrily, "Don't worry about the baby! Martin would not dare to have it!"
Evie glanced at the door and chipped in, "You are right. Not every illegitimate child has such a good luck."
After she finished her words, Jameson came.
A servant greeted, "Mr.Proctor.' Jameson nodded.
His face was expressionless.
The dining hall went quiet, and the moment turned sour.
Erica stopped crying anymore and sobbed.
Just then, Jeffery went downstairs.
He said with a sigh, "Jameson, come with me to the garden.I have something to say to you.'
After they left, Albert frowned and asked, "Do you have to provoke him now?"
Evie sneered, "I didn't provoke him.I was just telling the truth."
Then she turned to look at Erica and continued, "Erica, you should never underestimate a man born out of wedlock. It is possible that in the near future, he will snatch away everything you have.' Erica knew nothing about what happened in the past.
She nodded and was more determined to get rid of Sharon and her child. Not long after, Morton and his wife Keira came with Martin.
Albert stood on his walking stick and tried hard to suppress his anger.
"Tell me. What happened? And who is that woman?"
Martin looked coldly at Erica and replied, "Nothing happened.'
"You don't have to deny it.I didn't meant to denounce you. Instead, I want a solution."
Morton began in a deep voice, "I know my son well. He would never do such a thing."
Keira asked, "Martin, is there a misunderstanding?"
Erica stood up from the sofa and yelled, "How could it be a misunderstanding? I saw it clearly with my own eyes! They met each other many times in private, and Martin always protects that woman!" Keira said helplessly, "Erica, don't jump to a conclusion based on what you saw. Prove it."
"Can't the baby in that woman's belly prove their relationship? Alright, I won't pursue this matter further. If she has an abortion, I'll pretend that this never happened."
"Erica, are you done?"
Martin couldn't bear it any longer.
Erica burst into tears again.
"Look, he is still protecting that woman. If he had nothing to do with that woman, and that child was not his, would he react all that much?"
Keira pulled on Martin's sleeve and frowned.
"Martin, calm down. Speak properly. Since Erica has already said so, there must be such a person. Just tell us what happened.'
"She is a friend of mine.I admit that I like her, but she has rejected me,' Martin explained.
Then he said to Erica, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Erica did not expect that Martin would admit he liked Sharon in front of everyone.
She became angry from embarrassment.
"I knew it! I knew you liked her! What's so good about her that she has fascinated you? Even my cousin...' Halfway through her words, Erica realized that she had spilled the beans, so she covered her mouth. Albert frowned.
"Erica, tell me clearly, what happened to your cousin?"
"What's wrong with me?"
Jameson's cold voice came from behind. It sent a chill down Erica's spine.
Erica was terrified.
She stammered, "No, nothing..."
Jeffery said, "Erica, since Martin has explained everything clearly, stop making a scene.Apologize to Mr.Morton and Ms.Keira."
"But..."
Jameson said indifferently, "You were just engaged. You can call off the engagement at any time if you want.'
Erica stopped talking, but obviously, she was unwilling to give up.Jeffery apologized to Morton and Keira to subside their anger.
Although Jeffery had a low status in his family, he was the gentlest and most courteous.
If he wasn't disabled, the Proctor Group wouldn't be under Jameson's sole authority.
