Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1456

Jacqueline, "I really thought Steven was into that girl. He divorced her, I assumed he was over her, and had a reality check, so I started hooking him up with other girls. You know what he told me?"
Kenneth, "What did he say?"
Jacqueline went, "He said he divorced because that girl Hannah wanted to. He said he's gonna get back with Hannah sooner or later..."
Kenneth, "When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
Jacqueline said, "It was the second week after he divorced that woman."
Kenneth, "If that's the case, we can't let Hannah stick around anymore."
"Kenny, what are you talking about?" Suddenly, Steven's voice came from behind.
Steven's parents were both very surprised. They simultaneously turned around to look at him. Steven was standing there with his arms crossed, grinning at them.
Jacqueline was kind of flustered. She quickly laughed and walked towards Steven. "Steven, you're finally back. Have you had dinner? If not, I can ask someone to make your favorite..."
Before she could finish, Steven cut her off, "Mom, do you love my dad?"
Jacqueline instantly replied, "Of course, I love him."
Steven walked towards Kenneth. "Kenny, do you love my mom?"
Kenneth, "You finally decided to come back? Come with me to the study, I need to have a serious talk with you."
Steven, "Kenny, I asked you a question. Don't dodge it. Answer me first."
Kenneth replied, "Isn't that obvious?"
Steven said, "Love or not, is it so hard to answer with such a subtle difference in words? Are you feeling guilty and dare not answer?"
Steven's words made Kenneth very angry. "You little rascal, what are you talking about? Come with me to the study right now. We need to discuss the board meeting next week."
Steven was like, "Kenny, you're really unfair. Your wife, my mom, has been so loving and caring to you all these years. Can't you even say, 'I love you'?"
Jacqueline was like, "Son, your dad definitely loves me. He's just reserved and not into saying those words."
Steven laughed. "Mom, don't you want to hear my dad say, 'I love you' to you?"
Jacqueline of course did, but she knew Kenny wouldn't say it, so she didn't want to push him.
Kenneth knew his son's character. He wouldn't let it go today if he didn't say it. "Your mom and I grew up together. We have a strong bond, and I married her because I love her. We've been married for more than thirty years, do you think I love her or not?"
Steven was like, "I asked you a question, why are you asking me now? Kenny, is it really that hard to say, 'I love you' to the woman you once loved deeply?"
Kenneth was like, "Of course, I love her."
Steven laughed again. "You really love her, huh. You love her so much that you betrayed her. Your mistress' child is ten years old."
Kenneth's face immediately changed. He looked at Jacqueline worriedly. "Jacqueline, don't listen to his nonsense."
Jacqueline stared at Steven, then turned to Kenneth. She didn't need to ask, and the truth was clear. "Kenneth Dixon, tell me, is what Steven said true?"
Kenneth was like, "Jacqueline, let me explain."
Jacqueline was like, "I just want to know, is what Steven said true or not?"
