Chapter 752
Trapped in Love
Chapter 752 Are You Accusing Me Evan walked over and gave two serious glances. âEven though the quality is slightly lower than your previous antique collection, itâs still pretty good.â
Franklin sighed. âYouâre right⦠There are things that wonât appeal to everyone, even if theyâre of good quality.â
Evan asked, âWhat are you insinuating. Mr. Price?â
Franklin put down his brush and motioned for Evan to sit on the sofa. He poured a cup of coffee for Evan and said, âEvan, youâre here to talk about the girl, right?â
âYes, Alex loves her a lot,â Evan replied.
âCan love last a lifetime? Itâs just a momentary burst of enthusiasm for now,â Franklin remarked.
Evan asked, âDo you dislike Paige because of her family background or because of her as an individual?â
Franklin explained, âEvan, you know that Alex is my only son. Heâs going to take over Price Group in the future. Every family in Angelbay is watching the three most influential families closely. It will be very difficult for us to get back to our previous position if there is even a bit of a setback. I want Alex to marry. someone of the same social standing for the sake of the family.â
Evan countered, âDo you not trust Alexâs capability that much, Mr. Price?
âFurthermore, if you donât believe that their relationship will last, why not let them be and see how long they can hold on?
âPerhaps they might break up once the initial excitement fades, just as you said. On the other hand, your opposition will only make them more reluctant to part ways. After all, everyone in this world has at rebellious streakâ¦â
Downstairs, Alex and Rebecca sat far apart.
Rebecca glared at Alex and asked, âDo you have anything to tell me?â
Alex had no intention of engaging with Rebecca.
Rebecca mumbled, âWhy? Are you blaming me for slapping that woman yesterday?â
The remark triggered Alex. He turned to look at Rebecca. âPalga is not a seductress, and Iâll say this one last time!â
âIf sheâs not, then who is she? Look at you now. You wonât go to the company or come home! If youâre not drawn to her, what is it? Was I wrong for slapping her?â Rebecca raised her voice.
âSheâs carrying my child in her womb! Are you trying to end my legacy? Alex snarled.
âThereâs no telling who the father of her baby is! Donât you know about her habit of going to bars before?
Does an immodest woman like her have the audacity to carry your child?
âSheâs leeching off you because she thinks youâre rich! Perhaps she might get an abortion later in the pregnancy! Think with your head Rebecca said.
âMother, I wonât come back anymore from now on if you keep talking about her like this!â Alex declared.
Rebecca was exasperated. âHow long are you going to remain oblivious?â
âThatâs enough.â
All of a sudden, Franklinâs voice was heard from the stairway Alex and Rebecca looked up to see him.
Noticing that her helper was there, Rebecca hastily said, âTalk some sense into your son. He has lost his mind from being enchanted!â
âAre you done causing trouble? Do you think yesterdayâs incident wasnât embarrassing enough?â
Franklin lost his temper at Rebecca.
Rebecca was shocked. âFrank, are you accusing me?â
Franklin said, âDonât get involved in your sonâs matters from now on!â
âVery well then, I wonât get involved any further from now on since you say so!â
Rebecca turned and walked away in anger.
Alex couldnât believe that Evan would convince his father so easily. He was still in shock after leaving the residence.
