Chapter 344 A Surrogate Lover

But what they didn't expect was something even more disturbing to come.

"Byron?" Rector looked up in surprise, "Why did he get involved?"

"Why else could it be? Because of Chelsea, of course..." Jacob's wife muttered softly.

"He and Chelsea knew each other before?" Janice was also surprised.

"Grandpa, Grandma, don't you guys go online?" Jacob's wife took out her mobile phone, searched for a video, and passed it to the old couple.

The video was about Athena and Byron's past.

Although Athena in the video and Chelsea had vastly different styles, their facial features were almost identical.

Jacob watched it on the sidelines.

And cold sweat began to break out from his forehead.

"No wonder Chelsea looks familiar to me. It turns out she's so similar to Byron's former secretary...

"Byron used to take Miss Newton as a surrogate. Then Miss Newton died in a plane crash, and now there's someone so similar to her that he probably..." Jacob's wife concluded. Byron was as bad as ever.

He must be looking for a surrogate lover!

After watching the video, Rector felt a sharp, stinging pain in his heart. And he immediately covered his chest in pain.

"Take the medicine! Quickly!" Jacob exclaimed.

After taking the medicine, Rector felt better.

"Grandpa, what should we do now?" Jacob's cousin asked, "We can't offend the entire Stella family and Byron for a spoiled little girl, right?"

"That's right. Our design company has just found its feet and started to make a profit..."

"Uncle, you can't be confused!"

"Yes! Maura was the one who did the wrong thing. She crossed the line by throwing Chelsea champagne, insulting Chelsea in front of all those people. Rose is bound to replace out about this. She may be old, but she's as mad and ruthless as Byron!"

"Enough!"

Rector scolded them in a low voice.

Everyone was dissatisfied, but no one continued to speak.

"Rector!" Janice burst into tears.

But Rector didn't look at her.

Instead, he lowered his head and asked, "Jacob, what do you say?"

After all, Maura was Jacob's biological sister.

However...

Jacob had always been struggling in vanity fairs. He was famous now, but he knew that no matter how good he was, the likes of Byron and Rose could tear down his edifice as easily as they lifted a hand. The Campbell family had long been unable to protect him.

Even to some extent, these families would become his burden.

"Grandpa, I love Maura. I do. But she's so spoiled." Jacob said in a deep voice, "Byron's not discussing with us. Give up Maura or take the entire Campbell family down with her; that's the choice he wants us to make."

The faces of everyone suddenly became darker.

"Then hand her out!" The cousin shouted, "She deserves to be disciplined!"

"And if Madam Stella asks about it later, we can say it's punishment for Maura's humiliation of Ms. Stella. Then neither side will be offended," said Jacob.

Janice was reluctant to do so.

But if they had to choose between the Campbell family's future and Maura's safety....

"Then let's do this." Rector decided to be the villain.

After speaking, he got up and prepared to leave.

But his heart was full of anger and anxiety. As soon as he stood up, he shook and passed out.
