Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 698

Ruby lowered her head and nodded. She did not dare to look into her father's eyes. Hackett almost could not breathe. He confirmed that his guess was right.

Every time this lousy evidence was placed in front of him, something would always overturn his conjecture. Frank Roberts, this bastard even said that he always kept an eye on this Wilson brat. He kept an eye on his daughter so tightly, but she was still kidnapped by that young asshole.

He took a deep breath. He could not flare up in front of his daughter. He had to save this anger for those two bastards. Each of them was racking their brains to kidnap his precious daughter. He had to take revenge on them one day

He could tell that his daughter liked the brat very much. Hackett asked calmly, "Baby, can you tell me why you hid it from Daddy?"

Ruby already knew that her father was lying about those standards. But she and Jasper thought that he was serious, and that's why Jasper tried his best to deserve to be the son-in-law of the Blackwell family. "Because he wants to become the richest man you mentioned. He said that he wanted to meet the conditions before marrying me. I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid that you wouldn't agree. If that happens, you'll fall out with his family."

The relationship between the two families would worsen. If Mom agreed and Dad disagreed, Mom and Dad would argue, although Mom would be angrier and Dad would coax her in the end.

Jasper said that he would apologize until her father forgave him.

Hackett understood his daughter's thoughts. She was probably afraid that he would not agree to her relationship with the brat. Seeing that his daughter's eyes were red, he could not bear to scold her anymore. He snorted softly. "Hmph, I suspect that it's his Trevon who wants to cut ties with me."

Then, Hackett asked in a displeased tone, "Did he already know about it?"

This matter was awkward. She had always thought that they did not know. It was not until this trip that she found their relationship had been open to the Wilson family. It was not appropriate for her to lie now, so she nodded.

Seeing his daughter nod, Hackett understood. He secretly made up his mind to take revenge. "Do you like him? Will you marry anyone but him?"

Ruby continued to nod and gave a positive answer. She said carefully, "Dad is so good to me. He has worked hard to become a qualified son-in-law as you said. As long as you don't agree, we won't get married."

She was a little afraid to say the exact time, afraid that her father would fly into a rage. At this moment, her father's expression was gloomy but it did not seem to be targeted at her, but at his so-called friends.

Ruby was about to comfort him and apologize again when she raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of Hackett's eyes. Just as her lips opened, Hackett spoke. Seeing that his daughter was dating secretly, he felt uncomfortable. His tone relented a little. "Ruby, I can forgive you for your mistakes, but you have to promise not to hide anything from your mother and me in the future. However, don't tell your mother about this first. I still have an important thing to do."

If Sherri found out about this, things would forge ahead. Perhaps she would go to the Wilson's residence tomorrow to discuss the marriage between the two families. Trevon had set a trap for him. He had to take revenge before agreeing to their marriage.

After knowing that Ruby's boyfriend was Jasper, Hackett realized that he was not as angry as he had imagined. He had reason to suspect that he had been assimilated by Sherri. After, she always got Jasper's name on her lips every day.

After understanding his daughter's thoughts, Hackett no longer wanted to know how long they had been together. He was afraid that if he got the accurate answer, it would eat him alive. It had been a long time since his daughter had these subtle changes. He could roughly estimate the time. Previously, he had raided the studio from time to time because he had his suspicions, but he never found any clues.

He even suspected that Jasper had learned about criminal investigation and that was why they could hide their relationship so perfectly.

However, from his daughter's smile, it could be seen that she was very happy. Just based on this fact alone, he became more willing to accept Jasper. His original intention for choosing a son-in-law was to hope that his future son-in-law could give his daughter a happy and carefree life.

After thinking for half a minute, he finally got over himself. Now he was a good father of magnanimity.

Ruby stared at her father nervously and did not dare to disturb him. She held the milkshake in her hand and did not drink anymore. However, after telling him about this, she felt much more relieved.

"Remember what Dad said just now. Other than this matter that you can't tell your mother now, you have to tell us everything in the future."

Ruby nodded and stopped asking her father for the reason. She did not ask how her father knew it was Jasper either. After thinking about it carefully, everything was traceable. When she opened the studio, her father did not come to the studio much. She couldn't remember when her father suddenly came to pick her up. He did not inform her in advance and only said that he did it in passing. He might have suspected it long ago.

She didn't tell her mother because her mother tended to get excited by anything. After thinking for a while, she continued to confess, "Dad, I'm now a designer for OnLy."

After knowing that his daughter was in a relationship with Jasper, he was not so surprised to hear about this matter. He had suspected the name of this company for a while. As expected, Frank still said that he was the son-in-law of a tampon tycoon. He had to buy a box of tampons for him.

"So you're not going to Haililand to participate in the competition this time, but Artroyland?"

Ruby shook her head and nodded. "Both. In Haililand I participated in women's clothing, and in Artroyland it's men's clothing."

He had seen the photo of Jasper receiving the award. He was indeed quite handsome. In terms of looks, this young man could match his standards. "So you didn't go to receive the award to hide it from Dad?"

Ruby shook her head. "No, I didn't. We made the decision together. He didn't want too many people to harass me so I could focus on my designing job."

Hackett didn't look very satisfied on the surface, but in his heart, he was still satisfied with the brat's actions. Keeping a low profile and being mysterious could indeed save a lot of trouble. However, he didn't say anything to praise Jasper. He only took a tissue and handed it to his daughter.

"Take your milkshake."

"Dad, can you forgive me? I promise this is the only thing I've hidden from you since I was born." Ruby did not drink the milkshake. She just held it in her hands. Afraid that her father would not believe her, she raised one hand and swore.

Hackett stood up and stood beside her daughter. He took her hand down. "Daddy believes you."

But he had a fear in his mind. 'Lord, she has always been a good girl who never lies. But once she tells a lie, that is destructive enough to murder me. She must have been led astray by that brat.'

Hackett chatted with his daughter in the office for a long time until it was time to get off work. Hackett asked about how Jasper treated his daughter and that was a test for the young man.

In the end, her daughter shared bits and pieces of the time they spent together. Hackett was satisfied. However, he was still stingy about compliments and did not praise him. He felt stifled and had to vent his anger.

Before going home, Hackett stated his condition. "Ruby, I can agree to your relationship with that brat, but I also have to test him. You and he both did the wrong thing, but from my perspective, he is the one who led you astray. So, you can't tell him we have a conversation today. This is also a test set by me. Do you hear me? You have to go home before nine in the evening from today on."

He was indeed curious when and how Jasper would come to apologize. This Wilson brat committed a bold crime.

Ruby nodded in agreement. Now, she would do whatever her father said. Not to mention going home on time, she would even agree to move the studio home.

"Dad, will you beat them?"

"No, I'm a refined person. I'm not a rough person like your godfather." But there was a bigger chance for Sherri and Natalie to have a fight.
