Chapter 163

“Are you sure that Flora Wong’s unborn child isn’t Owen Lane’s child?”

Despite the fact that Flora was having an affair outside, it was still possible that Flora was bearing Owen’s child.

Owen could probably be very happy if he knew that he had another child.

Robert Simpson smiled sarcastically.

“Do you know what Flora asked the doctor after she was informed that she’s pregnant?”

Georgia Lane shook her head.

“She told the doctor that she wanted to have an abortion. She asked the doctor to schedule an abortion surgery. The child was fine, but she still wanted to abort the child, this could only mean that the child wasn’t Owen’s.”

Georgia was getting excited. Ever since she saw that Flora was having an affair, she’d been thinking of how to expose this to the Lane family and throw the family into disarray.

And now, Flora had a child that wasn’t Owen’s. That will be a gigantic embarrassment for Owen. Georgia asked Robert.

“So, what do we do now?”

“We need to come up with a plan to let Owen know that Flora was pregnant and aborted her child, obviously. Before that, I have to cancel my marriage with Emma Lane, to show the public that I had no relations with the Lane family.”

Georgia fell silent suddenly. She didn’t know how to cope with Robert’s statement.

Ever since they were in a relationship, Georgia forced herself to overlook the marriage arrangement between Robert and Emma. She felt like she should place her trust in Robert, so she didn’t question his decisions.

And now Robert was definitely canceling the marriage arrangement for Georgia’s sake.

She asked Robert.

“If you are to cancel the marriage, won’t your mother be unhappy with it?”

Robert hadn’t been in contact with his mother. The last time he tried he could not contact her, and he only received a message from her. He deduced that his mother was travelling abroad at that time.

However, his father, Aidan Simpson had already found out that the Simpson family was the one behind the car stealing incident. Other than that, after reviewing the footage from the dash cam in the car, he was certain that the Lane family was acting shady.

He then looked into the bank account histories of the three perpetrators. As long as there were solid evidence that someone from the Lane family had instructed them to steal the car, Robert would immediately let his mother know about it. With that, his mother would never allow him to have any relationships with Emma.

Seeing as Georgia was very worried, Robert held her hands and told her.

“I know that you’re worrying about my mother’s response to this, but I’m never gonna give you up because of her. Also, she’s not going to oppose me canceling my marriage, as she absolutely hates the Lane family now. I’ve already gathered evidence, except the footage from the car accident site, that shows that Eden Lane was the one behind the accident. Eden is Emma’s sister, and people from the Lane family had been lying to us for the past few years, so there’s no way my mother will accept Emma into our family.”

Georgia squatted in front of Robert.

“I see. But, if you really are going through with canceling the marriage, it would be better if you told your mother first. I don’t want your mother’s impression of me to worsen, as she might think that you’re doing all this for my sake.”

“Very well. I will contact my mother before I do that. Also, regarding the Lane family, my father will take actions against them. He has been getting people to buy out their stocks. As the Lane family is an empty shell, it will go down eventually.”

Georgia had always wanted the Lane family to pay for what they had done, and now her wish had come true, she was unable to communicate her feelings somehow.

“Thank you, Robert. Thank you for trusting me.”

During night time, Georgia went to bed with Annie Cooke in her arms.

Of course, she would spend her time with Annie when she came over.

Robert, alone in his bedroom, he gave his mother a call once again.

This time, Maisie actually picked up.

“What’s going on?”

Maisie asked. Robert then told her everything about the car stealing incident, the video evidence, and messages from Ivan Simpson. With all that, he started to give some advice to his mother.

“Mom, I am certain that Eden was the one behind the incident. The Lane family had been lying to us for the past few years. With that, I’ve decided to cancel my marriage arrangement with Emma. Before that, however, I had to ask for your agreement on the matter first.”

“Do whatever you want, son. Since you have evidence now, you should go and avenge your sister. I’m still not feeling like going back to the country, I wanna enjoy myself here some more.”

Robert wanted to talk about Georgia with his mother, but seeing as Maisie had such a cold tone, he gave up on that thought.

There’s still time, he could wait until his mother to return, then he will try to change her impression on Georgia.

After the call was over, the knife around Maisie’s throat was finally lowered.

Kayden, satisfied, smiled at Maisie.

“Ma’am, that was an impressive performance! Worry not, we will not mistreat you as long as you follow exactly what we say.”

Maisie did not say anything. It was true that ever since she was here, these people had not mistreated her at all.

However, they had always confined her in the room, and she was unable to leave.

Other than talking with the ones that are guarding her, she did not have any other ways to communicate with the outside world. She did not even know who was the one who had captured her.

“What do you want from me? If you’re kidnapping me, just ask my son for the ransom. If it’s not for money, at least make your intentions clear to me.”

Maisie demanded impatiently. Kayden immediately taped her mouth to shut her up.

“Ma’am, you are in no place to ask for anything, you are now our prisoner.”

All Maisie could do was glare at Kayden as she turned around and left.

There were still some muscular men in her room. All four of her limbs were tied up and she had absolutely no freedom whatsoever.

Maisie really wanted to tell Robert that she was kidnapped, but with a knife on a throat, she had to follow Kayden’s script and reply accordingly.

Maisie really wanted him to know that she had went missing.

However, Robert bought Kayden’s lies and believed that his mother was on vacation, which was what pissed off Maisie the most.

After Kayden left Maisie’s confinement room, she walked towards a villa.

Laurence Knight was reading a book in the living room. After Kayden enters the room, Laurence looked at her and asked.

“So, what did Robert say to Maisie?”

“It seems that they had already known the fact that the Lane family were the ones who instructed people to steal the car. After that, Robert and his father will definitely find ways to crumple the Lane family. Before that, though, Robert will cancel his marriage with Emma. Should we tell this to the Lane family?”

Kayden told him in a careful tone.

Laurence thought for a while, and smiled at her.

“Do you think after we told them about that, could the Lane family prevent the Simpson family from taking their revenge. If Emma knows that Robert is canceling their marriage arrangement, do you think that she could stop him from doing so?”

“It is indeed impossible, Mr. Knight. But, aren’t you cooperating with the Lane family, sir? If you don’t provide some information to them, they might very well disrupt your plan.”

Laurence snickered and said.

“The Lane family is a crowd of incompetent people. I’m allowing them to continue existing only to make Robert and Georgia suffer. If Robert really went all out and destroyed the Lane family, all we have to do is secure Emma. In addition to that, if we intervene too extensively in their affairs, Robert will definitely notice that something is wrong with his mother, and in extension expose us. Thus, it is better if we stay put for now, wait until the Lane family is getting really messed up thanks to the Simpson family, and then they will be even more reliant on our help. By then, they will obediently follow all of our orders and requests.”

Kayden lowered her head and replied.

“I understand now, Mr. Knight.”

“Even so, we should still let the Lane family in on some of this information. Call Emma and tell her Robert is going to cancel the marriage, and she should be prepared for it.”

After she left Laurence, Kayden called Emma and said.

“Miss Lane, we’ve gotten some latest information, I’m telling you this on behalf of Mr. Knight.”

Emma was talking to a child in the VIP ward in the hospital when Kayden called her.

With her phone in her hand, she walked next to a balcony and asked.

“What is it? You can tell me through the phone.”

“Miss Lane, we acquired information that Robert has prepared to cancel your marriage. Mr Knight wanted me to let you know, so that you can prepare yourself earlier.”

Emma’s expression changed instantly.

She had predicted that Robert was going to cancel the arrangement sooner or later, she just never thought that he’d made up his mind that quickly.

She said to Kayden in a mildly infuriated tone.

“Didn’t Mr Knight promise that Robert will marry me? And now you’re not doing anything while I am not getting married. I ask you this, how are we going to continue our cooperation in the future?”

“Miss Lane, timing is crucial for these kinds of things. Mr. Knight will never let you down on whatever he had promised you. As for right now, you can deal with the situation however you wish. Mr. Knight will arrange your marriage later down the line as promised.”

Emma hung up the phone, frustrated as she did not know what kind of timing was Laurence waiting for.

Lately, she had been visiting the hospital to meet the child everyday. That child’s biological parents are Georgia and Robert, which is why Emma was unwilling to care for that child.

However, if she did not pretend to have a child, she would be unable to stand up to Robert, let alone marry him.

The Simpson family had a lot of money and properties, and now Robert was looking to cancel their marriage, thus this child was her only hope.

The boy’s mental state was unstable recently. Emma had already gave him a name, Leon Lane.

His consciousness was not stable, and he would be unable to recognize anyone around him. Hence, Emma was by his side everyday, telling him that she was his mother.

However, she was not making much progress at this, as the boy still had his guard up against her, and appeared to not like Emma.

Emma also understood that even if she were to bring him to see Robert, Robert would still not believe that they had a child together.

Despite this, she had to hold herself back and continue to convince Leon that she was his mother.

After an hour of accompanying Leon in the hospital, Emma returned to the Lane family.

She went to meet Owen immediately.

“Robert is going to cancel our marriage in a few days.”

Emma told him all about the call between her and Kayden. Owen’s expression turned dark, as he felt that the company was not doing well lately.

“Has the boy recognized you as his mother yet?”

Owen asked, then Emma shook her head and replied.

“Not yet, even with a few psychologists helping me, he’s still looking at me with eyes of caution. He’s been cautious around everyone, but I feel if I keep going to meet him everyday, it’s only a matter of time until he recognizes me as his mother.”

“We can’t rely on Laurence Knight alone, we can’t do nothing and be a sitting duck. If Robert wants to cancel the marriage, we will let the whole world know about this. We can’t let Robert play us like his toys, so we will strike first and see what happens.”

Emma was confused as Owen laughed cruelly and continued.

“Georgia had been living in Robert’s villa for quite a while now. Both of them had been going out together lately, so I’ve hired some paparazzi to take photos of them secretly. By then, every major newspaper will be reporting this to the world, and everyone will know that Robert was having an affair, despite already having a fiance.. What’s worse is that the woman he’s having an affair with is his fiance’s sister! I would like to see if he has the balls to cancel your marriage by then.”

“If he insisted on canceling your marriage, Georgia’s reputation will be tarnished beyond repair. Also, hasn’t Percy Chow and her companions completed their preparations? They are about to expose Georgia’s controversial exploits, such as she had plagiarized tutor’s thesis and her less-

than-desirable private life conducts. If we expose these to the world, even if Robert went through with canceling your marriage, his reputation will most definitely suffer.”

“But dad, if we do this, we’re going to flip the table on them and basically sever all ties between us. Do we really have to do this? Is there no other way?” asked Emma.

Owen chuckled and said.

Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison Chapter 162 Flora Is Pregnant The Unexpected Marriage Chapter 251 What's The Use Of You Have I Told You Lately Chapter 147 It must Feel Good to Have Him Drive Me to Work “Do you think that there’s other ways to deal with this mess? If Robert cancels your marriage, the Lane family’s investors will eventually withdraw their investments. If that happens, the Lane family’s gonna go into bankruptcy immediately. You had been his fiance for five years, thus other families in J city that are powerful and rich ain’t gonna marry you anymore. There’s no other way, Emma.”

Emma nodded silently.

At that point, they were really up against a corner.

The next day, entertainment newspaper and website forums were bustling with discussions on the latest news, the news that Robert Simpson was living together with his fiance’s sister.
