“Amber, let me explain.”
Jack Hughes was panicked.
Yet, Amber Knight shook her head, “No, I shouldn’t blame you. I should have blamed my own nose.”
When she said that, the tears in Amber’s eyes rolled down following the corners of her eyes.
At this moment, Amber could not bear it anymore.
She had borne it these few days.
Since the day she had a suspicion, she kept telling herself… it may be a misunderstanding.
Because she knew Jack’s current situation, so she did not want to distract Jack.
However, when Jack came home every day, that unique scent from his body was like giving her heart heavy blows.
Until she saw the video on the internet today, she finally could not bear it anymore.
Looking at Amber’s crying look.
Jack was completely panicked. He immediately hugged Amber, “Amber, don’t be agitated. You have a baby now. I will explain, I will explain to you.”
“Why can’t I be agitated?”
Amber shouted and got out of Jack’s hug.
Her eyes were red and tears could be seen.
Her small body trembled. Her breathing was inconsistent as she was angry. She shouted hoarsely, “The smell of the perfume on your body and this video, aren’t they enough to explain the problem?”
“Jack, I am the one who is your wife!”
“Don’t you think it is dirty for you to cheat on me when I am pregnant?”
The words were almost shouted out hoarsely.
Amber was on the verge of an emotional breakdown.
Her husband cheated on her when she was pregnant. It was not only a betrayal for Amber.
‘Cheating?!’
Jack was completely stunned.
He felt depression in his heart as if his chest was filled with stones and it was stuck.
Looking at Amber’s sad crying look.
Amber’s shout just now seemed to linger around his ears.
Slap!
Jack slapped on his face without mercy.
The sudden move had made Amber’s eyes blink.
Then, Jack said with a deep voice, “Since the moment I stayed with you, I had said that I would not let you lose for wagering your life to me. I, Jack Hughes, no matter how cruel I am, would never hurt my own wife!”
“You came to my side without hesitation when I had nothing. If I cheated on you after marrying you or when you are pregnant, what kind of man am I?”
“Amber, don’t you even have this trust in me?”
“Trust?”
Amber smiled sadly and shook her phone, “I trust you, but I also trust my eyes, my ears, and my nose!’
‘Fuck!’
Jack was completely anxious and he had a feeling of going berserk.
‘Which bastard made up this kind of video and fake news?’
Looking at the crying Amber, Jack had feelings of anxiety and going crazy.
A pregnant woman could not go overjoyed or grief. At this point, Amber’s body would definitely be hurt!
He moved towards Amber again and kneeled down before Amber.
“I really did not cheat on you. But I am wrong if you are crying. Could you stop crying, okay?”
He raised his hands and wanted to wipe off the tears at the corners of Amber’s eyes.
Yet, when his hands just reached close to her.
Slap!
Amber harshly slapped Jack’s hands.
A cold voice was heard suddenly.
“You get out. Starting from tonight, we will sleep in separate rooms.”
Jack was stunned.
“Get out!” Amber shouted loudly.
Seeing Amber getting more agitated.
Jack did not dare to stay. More explanations would only make Amber sadder with her current state.
“I will ask Daisy to accompany you.”
Jack turned away. He suddenly understood why Daisy asked him to hold a durian and come up when he walked past the durian on the table.
Yet, with this kind of matter, could kneeling on a durian solve the problem?
He felt helpless in his heart.
Jack walked downstairs.
Mr. Ward, Brent, and Daisy Hill looked at him nervously.
The commotion just now and Amber’s cries were heard by the trio clearly.
“Young master.”
Mr. Ward got up.
Jack shook his head and said to Daisy, “Daisy, please go up and help me to comfort Amber. Her body would be hurt if she cries like this.”
Daisy nodded and quickly went upstairs.
In the living room, Mr. Ward and Brent looked at each other.
The conflict between the couples had made them disconcerted.
Jack was depressed as he sat on the sofa. He was irritated as he scratched his hair hard.
He was heartbroken when he thought of Amber’s sad and desperate look.
All this happened because of his meeting with Rena Yales.
Slap!
Jack slapped himself in guilt.
Mr. Ward and Brent were shocked.
Mr. Ward quickly advised him, “Young master, this kind of matter could be solved if you explain properly to Mrs. Hughes.”
“Yeah, Mrs. Hughes is educated and reasonable. She is not an unreasonable person.”
Brent chimed in. Then, he said, “However, I heard that pregnant women’s mood swings can be very noticeable. Young master will have to take more effort to explain.”
“As long as I can pacify Amber, I am willing to put in more effort.”
Jack opened his arms helplessly, “But now the problem is Amber does not give me any chance to explain. Every explanation seems like a cover-up.”
“We all believe that young master would not do anything wrong to Mrs. Hughes. However, Mrs. Hughes could not calm down because she was in a state of not understanding the whole matter and in a state of noticeable mood swings of a pregnant woman.”
Mr. Ward suggested and said, “Why don’t… we call Rena here to explain it properly to Mrs. Hughes?”
Those three people confronting each other was obviously the fastest way to solve the conflict.
Yet, Jack smiled bitterly and showed a helpless face.
He seldom got in touch with Rena. Yet, he could see that Rena’s personality was a little straightforward.
This kind of woman who was eager to do well in everything would ignore her extraordinary pretty look to compete for the lieutenant position of Grand Freemasons.
He would agree with Mr. Ward’s suggestion if it was before.
However, he was annoyed by Rena’s harassment and he had ‘humiliated’ her in public when he got off work.
Now, was it possible to ask for Rena’s help to confront and explain?
With Rena’s personality, Jack felt that it would be more likely to add fuel to the fire and make it worse.
“Young master?”
Mr. Ward saw Jack being silent. Suddenly, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
‘Could it be that young master had really done something wrong to Mrs. Hughes?’
They had watched the video on the Internet before Jack went home.
Although it wasn’t spread widely, the view count of the video was quite a lot because of Jack’s identity and Rena’s extraordinary pretty look.
Mr. Ward asked himself in his heart, there should have only a few people who could reject Rena in the video.
Seeing Jack’s look at the moment, Mr. Ward would still feel upset in his heart even though he had clearly known Jack’s disposition.
“I did not!”
Jack guessed Mr. Ward’s mind. He clenched his teeth and explained, “It is because when I got off work just now, I had dealt with Rema. She was extremely furious. Now, I am not sure whether she would help us if I called her to be here.”
“How did you deal with her?”
Jack rubbed his nose, “I used the token with ‘Juan’ generation and made her kneeled down in the public to call me Ancestor.”
Mr. Ward was suddenly stunned and then he gave a long sigh.
Brent beside him also showed a helpless look on his face and murmured, “Young master, you have really made yourself together into this trouble.”
Jack gave a stern look to Brent and he was speechless.
Who the hell knew that karma came so fast?
At the moment.
The phone suddenly rang.
Jack picked up the phone and look.
It was a call… from Mr. Knight!
