Falling For My Mysterious Wife

Chapter 15

“Jalen, you…” Kadin wanted to say something, but Jalen interrupted him.

“Aren’t Kian and Marie the cash cows you brought home from the orphanage? You forced them to drop out of school to make money at a young age. When Kian became my bodyguard, he was only 18 years old. Right? When Marie waited tables in the restaurant, she was only 16 years old. Right?” Jalen put on a long face and said bluntly.

“Do you think they don’t know their background? Do you know why Kian only asked me to take care of Marie before he died and didn’t mention you two at all?”

If not for the fact that they two had been pushing their luck recently, Jalen would not have said such unpleasant words.

They are too shameless. Do they really regard themselves as Marie’s parents?

Kadin and his wife turned pale, and their eyes were full of disbelief.

“They… They know about their backgrounds?” Kadin asked. He couldn’t believe it.

Jalen glanced at him and then looked in the direction of Marie’s room upstairs. “Marie doesn’t know. Kian

didn’t want her to be hurt, so he didn’t tell Marie.”

Kadin breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Marie didn’t know, it was fine. Anyway, she was his biggest cash

cow now.

“I said those things because I want you to know that I can tell Marie the truth at any time. And I can let her

cut off her relationship with you. Do you understand?” Jalen put it bluntly. He warned Kadin and his wife not

to be insatiable.

They nodded like chickens pecking food, not daring to refute it at all.

Seeing this, Jalen was satisfied. “Alright, take good care of her.”

With that, he turned around to leave.

“What about the cooperation?” Kadin gritted his teeth and asked. He hadn’t given up.

As Jalen walked out, he said, “Someone will deliver the contract tomorrow.”

“Alright. Alright. Alright. We won’t let you down.” Kadin smiled happily, and so did his wife.

Marie had come out of the room. She looked at her parents with a cold face and complained, “Why do you

ask to cooperate with Jalen again? Didn’t he give you enough?”

“You don’t understand. One project is not enough. Continuous cooperation will bring more benefits. We will make as much money as we want as long as we cooperate with the Halton Group.” Kadin didn’t change his

attitude toward her. He didn’t want Marie to notice anything wrong.

Marie was so angry that she was about to cry. “How am I supposed to face Jalen when I owe him so much? Have you ever thought about that?”

Get Bo

“You will get rich. Why will he look down upon you?” Kadin asked.

But then his tone softened. Kadin said to her, “Marie, we know that you like Jalen, but it’s useless to just say it. You should do something.”

“What can I do?” Marie’s eyes were red. She was sad exactly because she couldn’t do anything.

“A man can never refuse a woman who comes to him,” Kadin said to her. His meaning was very obvious.

Marie suddenly blushed and glared at Kadin. “I am not that kind of a woman!”

With that, Marie turned around angrily and slammed the door.

When Jalen got back to the Halton’s old house, Elaina had left. He looked at the empty living room and frowned.

“Where is my grandfather?” Jalen looked at Takvor and asked.

“Mr. Nitzan is in the study,” Takvor replied.

As soon as Takvor finished, Jalen prepared to go to the study. Just as he raised his foot, he thought of something and asked, “My grandfather had a guest earlier? I heard someone talking at the door.”

Moreover, Jalen felt that the voice was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before. If not for Marie’s mother suddenly calling to interrupt his thoughts, he would have recalled who the person was.

“Yes. It’s Ms. Gainsford,” Takvor replied.

“Ms. Gansburg? Why did she come here?” Jalen’s face darkened. He did not expect a member of the Gansburg family to come to see his grandfather.

Takvor didn’t hear it clearly. He shook his head and said, “I don’t know.” He did not know that Jalen was referring to Jenica instead of Elaina.

Jalen did not ask any more questions. He went upstairs and entered the study.

Takvor did not know what Jalen said to Nitzan, but he could hear the sound of an argument coming from the

study. Takvor felt worried.

Jalen soon came out of the study. His sullen look showed that he was in a bad mood.

“Mr. Jalen,” Takvor asked hurriedly. “Are you leaving?”

“Yes.” Jalen nodded. He looked back at the study and said, “Go upstairs and take care of my grandfather.”

“OK.” Takvor nodded and headed to the study.

“From now on, don’t let some random people see my grandfather, especially those with the surname

Gansburg,” Jalen said to Takvor.

Jalen did not expect that Nitzan would speak up for the Gansburg family. He also did not know how Jenica

talked Nitzan into helping her family.

Takvor was surprised. Was Mr. Jalen talking about Ms. Gainsford?

He doesn’t want Ms. Gainsford to see Mr. Nitzan?

It seems that Mr. Jalen really hates Ms. Gainsford. When they were still married, he acted like she did no see Mr. Nitzan.

Jalen left the Halton’s old house. On the way back, he called Graham and said harshly, “Inform the Gansburg Group that we will end the cooperation tomorrow, and we will never cooperate with them again.”

Jalen was irritated because the Gansburg family went to see Nitzan.

Originally, Jalen just wanted to suspend the cooperation. And he would cooperate with the Gansburg Group if there was a chance in the future, but now…

At this moment, Elaina hadn’t realized that her visiting Nitzan brought nothing to the Gansburg family but more trouble.

When Elaina returned home, she saw Jenica sleeping on the sofa. Just as Elaina covered her with the blanket, Jenica woke up.

“Ella, you are back.” Jenica rubbed her eyes and asked in a daze, “Have you had dinner? I saved some food for you.”

“I’ve had my meal. Go to your room to sleep,” Elaina said.

“OK.” Jenica got up and walked towards the room.

“Right. Jalen…” She seemed to have thought of something and asked.

Elaina walked over. She patted Jenica’s shoulder and said, “Nitzan has promised to help. There should be

news soon.”

“Really? That’s great.” Jenica smiled. In her opinion, there wouldn’t be any problems if Jalen’s grandfather had agreed to help.

However, Elaina did not think so.
