Chace sends information of her to the agent and tells her his name, "You can call me Chace. Stay here, and I will buy you a cell phone and ask the servant to come over."
"Thank you." Jessie says gratefully, "If you need help, just tell me. I will definitely do what you say. You are such a kind guy, but why can't you find a girlfriend?"
Chace sighs, "Yeah, I'm as kind as God. Why can't I find a girlfriend?"
Then he looks at Leigh, that bastard.
Damn it, he has such a bad temper yet he has a wife, and their baby will be born!
Because he saved Jessie and arranged for her accommodation, Chace spent four days in Country Y.
On the fifth day, he returned.
When he returns home, before his mother Dahlia lectures him, he takes out a photo. "Mom, don't scold me. I have a girlfriend. She is pregnant and is nourishing the fetus in Country Y!"
Dahlia grabs him and says, "Pregnant? You really spare great efforts to deceive me!"
"Mom, I didn't lie! I took her to the hospital to have a check-up. The child was indeed mine. Do I have to do that to comfort you?" Chace shouts as he is beaten up.
"If you don't believe me, talk to her!" Chace dials.
After getting through, he immediately hands the phone to his mother.
Dahlia is doubtful. She always feels that Chace is lying to her, but she doesn't know that the reason why Chace has been discussing the details with Jessie a few days ago is to prevent her from asking questions.
Jessie speaks as if she really knows Chace for a long time. Because she has no other way, she has to make up with Chace, and she acts properly.
After chatting for ten minutes, she completely dispels Dahlia's suspicions.
In the end, Dahlia gently instructs, "You stay there and take good care of the baby. I will come to see you in a few days."
"Okay, Mom."
After hanging up the phone, Dahlia catches Chace and beats him up again. "Well done, you made her pregnant but didn't know, and you want her to look for you. Gentle as your father, how can he have a son like you? You even kept her abroad. Is she a shame to you? I feel so ashamed for you!"
"Mom, it hurts. I'm your son!" Chace shouts.
He doesn't understand why his mother looks so elegant yet she is so strong and is on par with Leigh's mother.
"It's not that I didn't want to bring her back. It's that she just got pregnant for a few months and she's not in good health. What if she suffers a miscarriage? Then, who will you complain to?"
Dahlia thinks about it and stops hitting him. "I have to tell your father to book a plane ticket to see his daughter-in-law."
With that, she turns around and goes upstairs.
"Father isn't at home. What are you doing upstairs?" Chace asks curiously.
"Change clothes and go drink tea with Mrs. Lewis!" Dahlia's voice sounds from afar. "She used to show me how good her daughter-in-law was. So what? I have one, too!"
Chace is speechless.
They made comparison between their sons and now, daughters-in-law. Aren't they bored?
Chace also remembers that he has to look for Leigh, so he goes up to take a bath and changes his clothes, then hurriedly heads for the Lewis Group.
"Mr. Leon."
When the receptionist sees it is Chace, he greets him and whispers to him, "Mr. Leigh is in the office. However, he has been in a bad mood these past few days. You have to watch yourself."
"Alright, I know it." Chace waves his hand and quickly walks to the elevator.
Leigh's temperament changed a lot a long time ago. He looked gloomy and didn't come out for a drink.
During this period of time, for some reason, he was even more irritable, and no one dared to ask him out.
In the elevator, Chace thinks of taking Leigh to YX Group's presidents that day.
At that time, he felt that something was wrong with Leigh.
The next day, when he read in the newspaper that the boss of YX Group died in a car accident, he felt that the accident was not simple. It might have something to do with Leigh. However, the presidents of YX Group had no grudge against Lewis Group.
