"Love? Mr. Lennon, please don't joke with me. The only reason I got together with you was because Brandon needed a father, a complete family. There was never any real possibility for us!" Tania stated coldly.
"You saw it just now. Your father can't stand the sight of me. I practically send him into a fit every time he sees me. For his health, it's best if we end this relationship."
With that, Tania shook off Peter's hand and strode out of the Lennon residence.
Peter cast a cool glance at Jack and smirked. "Welcome back, Uncle Jack. Lennon Group is yours, and no one will take it from you."
After delivering his message, Peter followed Tania out. Jack clenched his fists, his gaze dark and intense, brimming with fury as he stood away from the other Lennon family members.
"Uncle Jack, Peter and Tania must be lying, right? You never married Tania, did you?" Ari asked, clinging to Jack's arm.
Jack, however, shook her off in disgust. "You don't believe them, but do you doubt my words too? Tania is my wife, and no one can change that."
"Uncle Jack, you..." Ari stumbled back, her face paling. "I don't believe it, I—"
"Ari, enough!" Caleb interrupted sternly, noting both Ari's outburst and the fury in Jamie's expression. "Show some respect. Is that any way to speak to your uncle?"
"I..."
…
After leaving the Lennon residence, Tania let out a long breath, glancing up at the overcast sky.
Peter, holding a now-awake Brandon, walked over. Brandon clapped his hands in delight upon seeing them. "Mommy, Mommy, Daddy carried me the whole time!"
Tania's mouth twitched. For a moment, she wondered if she had raised this son for nothing.
