A Love Trap novel Chapter 851

"They were about the same age, at most four or five years' difference. We never paid any attention to that.

Who knew it would turn out like this."

They never expected that things would come to this.

"So you were clear that Angelina was not from the Gu family?"

Because of what had happened before, the Li family didn't have it in them to lie in front of Jeremy.

"Yes, exactly.

Ah, no. We just happened to know that a while ago.

Well, we stumbled across something when we cleaned up her room last time. Since none of us could decipher it, we took it to the hospital and asked a doctor to shed some light on this matter. We got the shock of our lives when we learned it was a paternity test."

"Where is it? I want to see it," Jeremy said.

"Yes, just go and get it," Jeremy's assistant urged. Jacob gestured Hannah to fetch the paternity test report.

Hannah went inside the bedroom and soon came out carrying it. Quickly, she handed the paper to Jeremy and said, "Here it is."

Jeremy opened it and his eyes ran over the paper.

It was indeed true.

In the corner, he noticed the time. It was done almost at the same time that he was at the hospital.

Handing the paper to his assistant, he said briefly, "Give it back to them."

With that, Jeremy left, barely looking back.

His footsteps wobbled.

Nobody knew what to make of his reaction.

"President Jeremy..."

The assistant looked at Jeremy with concern.

But Jeremy only quickened his pace and soon he was out of their sight.

The assistant took out a check for one million dollars and said, "Here is one million. I want all of you to keep this a secret. Even Angelina shouldn't know that we came here. Just treat her the way you treated her before."

"Fine, okay."

The Li family took the check and watched the assistant leave as well.

Mulling over the assistant's words, neither of them understood it.

As Jeremy and his assistant got out of the Li apartment, Jacob cursed and became a little irritated, "So, now that they know Angelina is not a member of the Gu family, I doubt whether she can extract money from them from this day on."

"It seems so," Tomas said, agreeing to it.

"But how did the Gu family know? Tell me something. Is any of you that snitch?" With his doubtful eyes, Jacob gazed at Thomas and Hannah.

"How could you even doubt that? Angelina is like our bank from whom we exract money. I am not dumb enough to kill the goose that lays the golden egg!"

Hannah just cast an uneasy look at Jacob. He believed she didn't have the guts to make such a rash decision.

"Did you listen carefully to that assistant's last sentence? What did he mean? He asked us to treat Angelina the same way we treated her before."

Does that mean we can still extort a small fortune from her?" Jacob's eyes glowed.

"I suppose so," Thomas echoed.

"Then what are we waiting for? I guess that brother of hers won't kick her out so soon. We need to make use of this opportunity to get more money from Angelina."

"That's a good idea."

Jacob took out his cell phone and began to text Angelina.

Jacob's text message was nothing more but a conundrum to Angelina.

Strangely, it seemed Jeremy was deliberately distancing himself from her.

'What is going on?

Is it because my intentions have become too obvious? Or has Jeremy noticed something already?

No, it can't be!' She finally shrugged off these thoughts.

She had been very discreet about it. There was no way Jeremy knew anything.

Consoling herself was the only way to go now.

She didn't know why, but lately she had been having negative thoughts. Her intuition told her something bad was about to happen.

Ever since Angelina saw Ashley, she had been feeling this way.
