Chapter 200
The kind of smile Clara had when she said that was full of sarcasm. The way she looked at me was as
if she was piercing through the facade I was hiding behind. Her expression was telling me one thing-
she was calling me a hypocrite.
“I admit that I’m envious, I’m discontented, and I don’t want to face the fact that my husband has a child
outside our marriage,” I confessed, “But I genuinely care for that child. After all, I have children of my
own. I know how terrified they would be, being taken away so suddenly...” I couldn't finish my sentence,
murmuring, “Why would he do that?”
“Jaylan’s initial intention was simple. He wanted to end the chaos on the internet as quickly as possible.
His biggest fear was that someone would use the child to sow discord between you two, and force him
into a DNA test!” Clara looked at me, her tone confident.
“A DNA test?” I asked.
“Exactly,” Clara nodded. “That night, he came home very late, drunk, his eyes bloodshot,” Clara mused,
recalling the night.
“Which night?”
Clara thought for a moment. “It should be the day you went to the office to deny the rumors to the
press! The day you went to Silverdale City. Jaylan complained that you went to Silverdale City without
telling him. It was a bad sign. Yes, that day! He said in frustration, ‘She is not the docile woman people
see. She is not someone to be manipulated. It's all an act!”
I scoffed, “It seems Jaylan finally sees me correctly!”
Clara continued, “That day, Zora was delighted to see him at our place. Jaylan said you had left for
Silverdale City! Zora even teased Jaylan. Jaylan was distressed, so Zora took him to their room.”
“Looks like Zora has earned her place by Jaylan's side!” I snorted, “So, how did you find out that Jaylan
let Zora take the child away? Do they know you know about it?”
“No!” Clara said confidently. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes!” Clara responded with a disdainful sneer, “Even though Zora watches me like a hawk, I have my
ways.”
She finished with an evil smile and took out her phone, and then flipped to a folder and clicked on it..
I heard Zora and Jaylan's voices from the phone.
“Oh... lie down. Let me prop up your head... What's bothering you? Drinking too much is bad for your
health,” Zora's voice was seductive. I had never thought Zora could be this gentle. This was the first
time I heard Jaylan interact calmly with Zora.
It seemed Jaylan was at his wits' end. Discussing things with Zora showed his confusion at that time.
“Bitch! How dare she betray me!” Jaylan’s voice came, filled with anger and resentment, “I treated her
well!”
I was sure the bitch he was referring to was Marissa.
“Ha! You treated her well? But don’t forget, there are many who treat her well. Do you think all your
women are all as devoted to you as I am?”
“Zora, you better shut your filthy mouth!” Jaylan snapped angrily, and Zora immediately fell silent.
“This bitch! If it wasn't for her personally handling Medsafe Liyah Inc., I wouldn't have let her take
advantage. I didn't expect her to go to Jerome. I really underestimated her.”
“You’re not gonna like it, but I’ve checked into Marissa long ago. She’s not the type to settle down.
She’s never short of men. She’s kept more than one man, not just Jerome. She even had an affair with
a married man, you think she...”
“Enough!” Jaylan roared, probably smashing a glass in rage.
After a while, Zora’s cautious voice came again, “Don't get angry. Dealing with her is a piece of cake!”
There was a silence on the phone, and then Jaylan’s sinister voice came, “What I’m most worried
about right now is Aaliyah!”
