Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 282

Chapter 282: Chapter 282 Trevor’s Choice

From that single glance, Rose couldn’t quite decipher the deep, inscrutable look in his eyes.

Yet one thing remained unchanged—his indifference.

A moment later, Ryan slowly shifted his gaze toward Trevor and said coldly, "Mr. Robinson, I’m afraid you’ll have your work cut out for you."

Both Rose and Trevor immediately understood what he meant.

Now that Samantha’s identity was about to undergo a dramatic change, and the Robinson and Taylor families were bound by an engagement, preserving the arrangement would become an extremely complicated matter if both families chose to honor it.

Trevor offered no response.

Ryan simply led Samantha away.

Fortunately, none of the other guests at the banquet noticed what had happened.

The incident was quietly swept under the rug.

Dr. Grace left early due to illness, and Rose had already lost interest in staying.

Before leaving, she expressed G.S.’s sincerity by donating three of the company’s robotic tumor-removal systems.

"I’ll drive you home."

After a brief pause, Trevor spoke and headed toward the exit.

Rose had no objections.

The drive back to her apartment took a little over half an hour.

Once they were in the car, Rose glanced at him.

Trevor seemed to read her thoughts.

"We’ve been planning to call off the engagement ever since what happened at the Taylor estate. But the Robinson and Taylor families have too many shared business interests, and several major projects are still in progress. To avoid unnecessary complications, we’ve decided to postpone it."

He paused before asking,

"So... what do you think about Samantha’s situation?"

Rose understood.

The two families’ business interests were deeply intertwined. If the relationship between them fell apart, countless people would be affected.

Delaying the matter was the most rational business decision.

"Business partnerships can always be reorganized," she replied. "But now is the time to seriously consider ending them and put it on the agenda."

Trevor nodded slightly before continuing,

"If the Taylor family decides to honor the engagement, we’ll have to make other arrangements. I’ll handle it."

Rose understood what he meant.

If the Taylors truly found their biological daughter, they would naturally prioritize the family’s interests.

Until then, everything remained uncertain.

She also understood that Trevor was in a difficult position.

"Let’s postpone the wedding for now," she said softly. "Actually... it might be best not to have one at all. Our situation is different."

A wedding would attract far too much attention.

It would only invite unnecessary trouble.

Hearing her speak so calmly, as though she wasn’t concerned in the slightest, Trevor lightly tapped the steering wheel before asking, "Have you already prepared yourself for the possibility that we may never get married? Or... are you simply unsure about marrying me?"

Rose was momentarily speechless.

"...No."

Whether she truly meant it or not, Trevor accepted her answer without question.

"Then don’t worry. I’ll cut ties with the Taylor family as soon as possible."

Rose knew the situation had become far more complicated than before.

Still, Trevor’s sincerity was unmistakable.

Never one to bottle up her thoughts, she suddenly blurted out, "Do you really like me?"

"Mm."

Trevor answered almost instantly.

Their words overlapped with barely a pause between them.

"..."

For a moment, Rose felt a strange chill run down her spine.

She had always been sharp-tongued and straightforward.

But when it came to relationships...

She realized she was completely inexperienced.

Silence settled over the car.

Neither of them spoke again.

*****

Night had fallen.

The Bentley rolled to a smooth stop outside the Hill family villa.

Daisy was the first to step out.

She cheerfully waved at Ryan and Samantha, who were still sitting in the back seat.

"I’ll head inside first and give you two some privacy."

She was clearly in an excellent mood.

Humming happily, she disappeared into the house.

Samantha was equally delighted.

Her life had completely turned around overnight.

She was about to become Dr. Grace’s granddaughter.

That identity alone would open countless doors.

No matter where she chose to work, opportunities would come easily.

After all, influence was far more valuable than money.

She looked up at Ryan.

"Ryan... is this hard for you to accept? Or do you actually believe I’m connected to the Taylor family?"

She smiled self-consciously.
