Chapter 132
Even Donald would have been fooled by his words.
Jennifer looked suspiciously at Charles, clearly doubting his words.
Getting forgetful? Gave the wrong card?
Charles chuckled. “Mr. Campbell is the kindest soul I've ever met. He's caring and loving, and he takes pleasure in helping people. It's rare in this era to have a man like Mr. Campbell. I already felt honored when I first met him, and I grew to respect and admire him with time, especially when...”
Jennifer gave Charles an even more doubtful look. She felt that Charles was talking nonsense, but Charles' words did somewhat make sense.
Noticing that Donald's expression had darkened, Charles immediately stopped talking.
“All right then.” In the end, Jennifer still chose to believe his words. “Mr. Langford, please take back this card.” She then handed the card over to Charles.
Charles took the card and said, “I will leave now and not disturb you guys.”
He left the room.
Donald, Jennifer, and Lana sat facing each other in the room. The atmosphere was a little awkward. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Lana leaned casually against the chair, and she crossed her legs on the chair, which would risk exposing herself.
Jennifer glared at her disapprovingly.
Lana chuckled at that. “Why are you afraid when I'm not?”
“Donald is still here,” said Jennifer.
Lana changed her posture and kicked her high heels away, revealing her feet. “So what?”
“Let's go.” Jennifer got up and took Donald's hand as she walked out.
Donald nodded.
The corners of Lana's lips curled up into a smile as she mumbled, “That's interesting.”
Outside the room, Jennifer looked at Donald and sighed. “Kevin has lost tens of millions.”
She felt restless after bottling up everything within herself, and she felt like sharing the burden with Donald.
Donald snickered at that. “We should not pity a gambler like him. He would never turn over a new leaf, and he will sooner or later get you into trouble. So if you're asking for an opinion, I'd tell you not to bother about him.”
Jennifer's eyes turned red. “But he is still my brother, and he is my only brother...”
Donald was unconvinced. “You treat him as your only brother and give him everything you can offer, but what did he do? He drugged you when Harrison was still alive. Yet, he's asking for your help whenever he's in trouble. Fine. Maybe you can still afford to help pay his debt off when he has lost tens of millions this time. But what happens if he loses even more money in the future?”
Jennifer was a little upset to hear that. “I did not tell you that to hear you scolding my brother! No matter what happens, he is still my brother by blood. How can I not care about him?”
“And what happened after everything you've done for him? Don't you know what had caused our divorce?” Donald uttered harshly.
This was also the reason why Donald did not want her to find out his identity that soon.
He knew Jennifer could not keep a secret, and he also knew she would definitely tell Kevin after finding out his identity.
It was a no-brainer to think what Kevin would do after knowing his brother-in-law's true identity.
Kevin would brag everywhere, desperate to let the whole world know that Lord
Campbell was his brother-in-law.
After bragging around, Kevin would then proceed to cause troubles.
Donald knew Kevin far too well.
Jennifer looked up at him and put some distance between them. “Is Kevin that terrible in your eyes?”
“Isn't that obvious?” Donald's expression turned cold.
“It's not like you've done anything for him. Did you ever give him money or buy him anything?” Jennifer sneered.
Donald scoffed, “He's already in his twenties, and he has limbs to feed himself, so why should I buy him anything? Also, wasn't he the one who lost our house and the two million on my card?”
