Mr. Ward and Brent also saw the message on the mobile phone.
The two men paled.
The father-in-law rushed to call at this time, did he already know about it and came to punish him?
“Hey, Dad.”
Jack Hughes picked up the phone and forced a smile.
“Jack, why can’t I get through to Amber Knight’s phone?”
On the phone, Steve Knight had some doubts, “I called her several times, but her phone was powered off.”
“I think it was turned off when the battery went dead... What can I do for you, Dad? I’ll pass it on to her later.”
Jack’s heart was slightly certain that Amber had not told her mum and dad about what had happened.
But the guilt towards Amber grew stronger and stronger in his heart.
This silly girl, always bore it all by herself!
“Haha ... that's fine, first of all, congratulations on your big harvest today.” Steve smiled and said.
Jack said, “Also thanks to Dad’s great help.”
“I am just making a slight effort then, that boy Yael Quinn is very capable and with the help of Grand Freemasons, I said it is helping, I will rather say it is to take advantage of son-in-law to make money.”
Steve smiled and replied with his suddenly complaining tone, “But you and Amber keep this secret well too, so why don’t you inform us immediately the good news that she’s pregnant? Your mother and I will punish both of you tomorrow!”
They were coming over tomorrow?
Jack’s gaze froze.
Now the misunderstanding between Jack and Amber had not been solved.
If Steve and his wife flew over tomorrow, wouldn't that ... be a big deal?
But before Jack could reply, Steve said on the phone, “That's all for now, your mother and I will come over tomorrow, you and Amber don't have to pick us up, we'll go to your house ourselves, now back to TM Villa District, right? I heard Amber mention it last time.”
Snap!
The phone hung up.
Jack’s mood was bad.
He put his phone down and leaned back on the sofa, rubbing his face in annoyance.
Mr. Ward and Brent had also heard his conversation just now.
“Young Master, it’s not good for Steve and his wife to come over now.” Mr. Ward reminded him in a deep voice.
It was just a misunderstanding.
It was a matter between Jack and Amber.
If they took time to unravel it, Jack and Amber could reconcile.
But if Steve and his wife knew about it, it would become a problem between the two families.
It would really make a big trouble after this.
Once it broke up, it would affect the relationship between Jack and Amber later.
After all, it was impossible for anyone to remain calm once they found her husband was messing around with other girls.
“But the decision has been made and there's nothing I can do about it.”
Jack was filled with helplessness and subconsciously glanced at the upper floors, “I wonder if Amber has calmed down now."
Mr. Ward was a little anxious, “Maybe you can make up a reason for Steve and his wife to come over a bit later?”
“It should be too late, right?” Brent said.
In the living room, there was an abrupt silence.
The three of them looked at each other in a state of bewilderment.
Even a good governor cannot make a clear judgement on family affairs. Even if Mr. Ward was quite experienced in business, even if Brent was full of glory after experiencing numerous wars, but they were still anxious when facing the current difficulties.
“Let’s wait for the them to come tomorrow first, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are also rational people and won't mess around.” Jack stretched out and said tiredly, “Take a rest all.”
…
Inside the TM Villa District.
Rena Yales sat on the sofa with a huff, her towering chest heaving violently.
Beside her, Carlos Juan Yales snickered, “Silly girl, still angry? You’ve been angry for a few hours already?”
“Grandpa, can I not be angry? That guy Jack, he’s really pissed me off!”
Rena retorted instantly, “He asked me to kneel down in public, for goodness sake, I, Rena Yales, have never been so grieved in my life before!"
