Love me or leave me (Rebecca and Theodore) novel Chapter 283

Chapter 283 

The woman sped off. Connor came to his senses and panicked. He hurriedly caught up with the woman with his daughter in his arms. “Jessic, what are you doing? I… Aren’t we here to travel? Let’s go somewhere else!” His voice grew anxious as he spoke. 

However, Connor could not stop Jessica at all. Jessica quickly rushed to Carly. She was shocked when she saw Carly’s face and then sneered. 

Connor quickly chased after her with his daughter in his arms, but the next moment, Jessica slapped him hard across the face. “I was wondering who had you so captivated just now. Turns out it was your first love,” Jessica said with a sneer. 

Carly and Ronald were dumbfounded. 

Stacey stood off to the side, watching Connor and the woman who seemed to be his wife. Her mood darkened. “Let’s go,” Stacey said to Carly. She thought, ‘It was so many years ago. There’s no need to dwell on it anymore! 

“Don’t leave!” Jessica’s voice turned fierce as she saw them getting ready to go. 

Ronald quickly stepped in front of Carly, eyeing the menacing Jessica with displeasure. “What do you want?” 

Jessica looked at Ronald and then Connor. After a long time, she recognized the boy. “Are you Ronald?” 

Ronald frowned and said unhappily, “It has nothing to do with you.” Then, he turned to Carly and said, “Mom, let’s go.” 

Wait a minute!” Jessica immediately shouted. 

“Do you still carry the surname Zane?” Jessica asked. After saying that, she turned around and ordered Connor, “Connor, since you have divorced Carly, let’s change Ronald’s surname. Let him take his mother’s surname!” 

Connor was tired of hearing this. He could not help but retort, “Jessica, don’t be unreasonable!” 

Jessica was furious when she heard this. “Am I being unreasonable? Don’t you and your mother dislike me for giving birth to a daughter every day because of this child? Connor, let me tell you today. I want you to change Ronald’s surname today. If he still uses your surname, I will leave. You and your mother can go screw yourselves.” 

Connor’s face was extremely gloomy. He glared at Jessica in disbelief and shouted, “Jessica!” 

When the adults were quarreling, the little girl next to Jessica also stared at Ronald and shouted in disgust, “I hate you!” 

Ronald instantly frowned and was unhappy. However, he was quite tempted by Jessica’s suggestion. He had actually wanted to change his surname long ago. For many years, he had always wanted to follow his mother’s surname. His last name constantly reminded him of his useless father. Ronald thought about it and said to Connor, “Then let’s go change my surname. It happens that I don’t want to be a Zane either.” 

“No way!” Connor’s neck stiffened, and his face turned red. He refused immediately without a second thought. Connor looked at Ronald and took a deep breath before saying coldly, “Ronald, don’t think about changing your surname. You will be a Zane for the rest of your life!” 

Hearing this, Ronald sneered. “Are you dreaming? Stay a Zane for the rest of my life? If it weren’t for needing both my parents‘ approval, I would have changed my last name long ago. Even if you don’t agree, I’ll still change it once I’m an adult.” 

“You!” Connor flushed in anger again. 

Hearing what Ronald said, Jessica glanced at Carly and Ronald with a pleased expression. However, since she didn’t know

Connor refused to let Ronald change his surname, but Jessica said she had a way to convince him. She exchanged contact information with Ronald and told him to wait, assuring hit that she would get Connor to agree. After they parted ways, Carly’s mood remained complicated. 

“Will it affect Ronald’s grades if he suddenly changes his surname after the examination?” Carly couldn’t help but worry. 

“It’s not a big deal. I’ll ask someone to arrange it,” Hayden said.

Hearing this, Carly was momentarily stunned. But she quickly realized that the task would be much easier with Becky and Hayden’s help, considering their status. Then, when she thought about how Ronald could take her surname instead of Connor’s in the future, her heart beat faster, and she was filled with joy. 

The remainder of the trip unexpectedly became enjoyable. They happily extended their stay for a few more days and finally took the Hoggard family’s helicopter back to Strico. They had some fun, and life moved on. 

Ronald and Jeremy also became busy. They were planning to start a game company together. Although the two children had just graduated from junior high school, growing up in a prominent family like the Hoggard family had made them different from ordinary kids. Jeremy, in particular, showed a talent for business. He and Ronald had been close friends since childhood, and under Jeremy’s influence, Ronald had been exposed to various experiences. Nowadays, even Carly, his mother, felt she didn’t fully understand her son. The only thing Carly was certain of was that both children were good kids who would never do anything against the law. In that case, she wouldn’t restrict them too much.

Stacey and Hayden also knew that Jeremy used the summer vacation to start a game company with Ronald, so they didn’t stop him. There was nothing wrong with children developing their own hobbies, as long as it didn’t disrupt their learning. 

Stacey was quite curious whether Jeremy’s company would really succeed. Neither she nor Hayden interfered. They just watched the children move forward. A month later, when Ronald and Jeremy launched the game they had developed together, Stacey and Hayden were surprised and immediately downloaded the game designed, planning to play it themselves.
