Surprised Wife With Twins

Chapter 2166: Rupert's Scheme 1

Ivan stared at him for a long time, noticing the mist of tears in his eyes. He knew Spencer had been waiting for this moment for a long time. When Spencer saw Rupert, he must have been anxious too. Ivan was moved by Spencer's childlike demeanor. Holding the documents felt like scoring full marks on an exam. Ivan's lips curved into a slight smile, a relieved ease in his expression. Without saying a word, he looked away, stepped out, and gently closed the door behind him.

Spencer got the evidence and quickly sat down on the sofa, eagerly flipping through the pages. Rupert was even worse than he had imagined! Abroad, Rupert was already drowning in debt to the point where he had no friends left. He borrowed money wherever he could and resorted to deceit when he couldn't borrow any more. His reputation was utterly ruined.

Seeing this, Spencer couldn't wait to share it with Summer! But would Summer believe him? Regaining his composure, Spencer pondered his next move. Rupert had to admit to everything himself. So he began to think deeply.

Night fell.

Mr. and Mrs. Brightwood returned home to find their son suddenly back from abroad. They weren't excited because of Summer's entry into the entertainment industry and the Campell family's attitude; both elders were already very unhappy. So seeing their son didn't bring them joy.

"Son, what do you think about Summer entering the entertainment industry?" Mrs. Brightwood asked in a foul mood. "You can't accept it either, right?"

"I think it's great," Rupert replied calmly, sitting on the sofa.

Mrs. Brightwood felt a heavy thud in her heart.

As he poured himself some tea, he continued, "The entertainment industry pays well. With just a few months of work, she could earn tens of thousands of dollars, maybe even hundreds of thousands if she becomes famous."

Mrs. Brightwood was shocked by

her son's words! She stared at him in disbelief-was this really her son? This person only had her son's face but no soul; her son wasn't like this before.

The room fell silent as Rupert took a sip of tea and noticed his mother staring at him like he was a monster. He paused and realized he had been too blunt. "Mom..." he explained with a smile, "that's not what I meant. Please sit down. I just think that since Summer likes it, we should let her pursue it without making her unhappy."

"So you're supporting this?" Mrs. Brightwood looked at him incredulously. "I wondered how an unmarried girl could be kissing others!"

Thinking about those kissing photos made Rupert uncomfortable too, but it wasn't jealousy; it was possessiveness as her official boyfriend-most men felt that way. "Yes, I support Summer," Rupert said, wanting to protect Summer because he still wanted to play the good guy in front of her and marry her.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Mrs. Brightwood almost fainted from anger and collapsed onto the sofa. "Oh my God!"

"Mom," Rupert said with a smile, delightedly adding, "I just came back from Summer's house. She said she really likes the house you picked out."

"Which one?" Mrs. Brightwood immediately perked up and sat up straight, asking seriously, "Which one does she like?"

Rupert smiled but felt a pang of panic inside because he hadn't paid attention when tossing around the documents earlier.

"The one closest to us," he lied without changing his expression lying having become second nature to him by now. He thought there must be one that's closest there anyway.
