Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love novel Chapter 166

After Alex had said that, Robert flashed a smile at his uncle.

“Uncle Simpson, this is my personal matter. Whether I will terminate my marriage with Emma or me getting together with anybody, I feel like these are things you don’t have any right to interfere.”

Alex’s face immediately darkened.

“What kind of nonsense are you saying now! Previously, you have been kidnapped, which affected the stock price of the company. I have momentarily taken over your position to settle things and calm things down, but now that you’re back, everyone has their eyes on you, on your next move. But contrary to expectations, you churned out so much scandal, and now the netizens are aiming their spears at you. No matter what, Wendy is still my niece, while she was dead because of that woman, you still have the conscience to be together with her. What do you think public opinion would look like? How do you think your mother would accept this? How do you think the Simpson family would receive this?”

Alex said this with such vehemence and authority, but Robert simply laughed.

“Uncle Simpson, don’t you put on such a righteous face in front of me. We both know very well what kind of person we are. If you are really that concerned about that little tremor in the stock market, and if you really care about the shareholder’s feelings, you should organize a shareholder meeting and kick me out of management so that the people in the industry know that I no longer have the qualification to carry on the duties of being the head of the Simpson Group. I know that you really want to get this going.”

Alex’s face began to contort.

“Are you going to go that far for that woman? What about your mother? Doesn’t she have anything to say about this at all?”

“My mother is enjoying herself right now while travelling, Uncle Simpson. I advise you not to be a busybody, or else you might lose the chance to take over my position as the executive president of the company… I am willing to recuperate in silence and momentarily leave aside business matters, but don’t even think for a second that you can now boss over me, or interfere with my personal things.”

“You are really dead stubborn!”

Alex let out a roar.

“You just wait for the board of directors to hold a shareholder meeting. You better don’t regret by then!”

After leaving this sentence behind, Alex turned around angrily and left.

Georgia began to ask with obvious worry in her voice, “I saw that the people commenting on the internet has been criticizing you a lot. Do you think it won’t affect the company at all? Also, will your future be affected?”

Robert held Georgia’s hand.

“While managing a company, if I really care about that little drop in stock prices, I cannot steer this company to a better development… The most important parts of a company is its technological, financial and development departments… and also this company which is raking in fortune has all of my trusted subordinates planted inside. Uncle Simpson is just taking my place at the moment, but it is his delusion if he thinks he can pull me down from my throne. As for the gossips circulating out there, it won’t really deal a detrimental blow to stock prices, unless someone is scheming something… But for a huge company like us, it is normal to experience regular fluctuations in stock prices, besides being assaulted by other financial organizations. You don’t need to worry about this kind of thing, I will make sure to take care of it.”

Georgia didn’t know much about business rules and principles, so she could feel more at ease after hearing Robert’s confident speech.

“Oh right, didn’t you say that we are going to fight back tonight? We can’t be at a passive place all the time, I want to see how the Lane family expose themselves in the eyes of the public.”

Robert revealed a cunning and lecherous smile for the first time.

“Tell me, if I publish the news about Flora’s alleged abortion of her pregnancy on the internet, coupled with intimate photos of her and that man, what do you think would happen to the Lane family?”

“Of course, things would get interesting.”

Georgia was eager to see this drama unfold, but too bad she couldn’t be with the Lane family now.

Or else, she wanted to be in the middle of things to savor every twist and turn.

Robert immediately knew what Georgia was thinking just by looking at her eyes. He smiled at Georgia, “If the timing is right tomorrow, let’s go to the Lanes to check things out. Tell me, do you think the Lanes could still put on an act with a smile on their faces at that time?”

“Wouldn’t we be too evil if we do that?”

Georgia almost lost control of her facial muscles as she thought that Robert was now acting like a devilish third party who was going to aggravate an already worsening situation.

However, she liked him like this.

“Depending on the situation, do you think they would start a fight in the family, or would they forcibly bring her to get an abortion at the hospital?”

“I have planted someone to check things out for me. If there is any new development, we can go there and enjoy the show.”

Georgia could barely contain her excitement to see the drama unfolding in the Lame family.

In order to fully enjoy the show, Robert had arranged for the news to be exposed tomorrow morning instead of tonight, so that they could make sure the timing line up perfectly at the Lames tomorrow morning.

However, just as Georgia and Robert was about to dig into their dinner happily, the doorbell of the villa rang once again. This time, the visitor was Robert’s father, Aidan.

Georgia held Annie’s hand to welcome him but she didn’t know how to address him. In the end, she just addressed him as “Mr. Simpson.”

Robert gave a simple greeting, “Mr. Simpson, is there anything I can help you?”

At that moment, Aidan was directing his gaze at Annie.

“This girl is your daughter?”

Aidan asked Georgia, to which she nodded.

“She is my daughter and her name is Annie.”

After saying that, Georgia lowered herself and spoke to Annie.

“Annie, greet this grandfather here.”

Annie obediently called out, “Grandfather, hello, I am Annie.”

However, Aidan continued to stare at Annie as if in a trance, which made Georgia sense that something was off.

“Is there something weird on Annie’s face?”

“I just feel that…”

Aidan suddenly chuckled.

“Annie here looks so much like my little sister.”

Aidan’s sister would be Robert’s aunt. Georgia had never seen nor heard about Robert’s aunt, so she could only gape at Aidan with doubts on her face.

Robert shook his head at Georgia.

“Do I have an aunt?”

Robert asked Aidan.

“Your aunt passed away because of drowning when she was eight. That’s why you never get to know her.”

After saying that, Aidan lowered himself in front of Annie.

“Can I hug you?”

Annie felt that this elder man was very gentle, so she nodded.

Georgia didn’t stop Aidan from carrying her into his arms. Aidan then asked the two of them, “Isn’t this child yours too? Robert, what is happening between you and Miss Lane? According to my sleuthing, this child is not yours, but Annie does resemble you. Can you see that?”

Robert started to laugh as he heard that.

“Whether or not Annie is my actual daughter, I see her as one anyway. Something like bloodline verification would only be important if you care too much about it, but if I don’t put any attention to it, I wouldn’t care about the outcome of this thing. I won’t change my attitude no matter what.”

Aidan indeed did investigate Georgia and Robert’s past, and according to the evidences he got, the two of them had undergone bloodline verification. The outcome was that Annie was not Robert’s biological daughter.
