Back From Prison! Chapter 170: As Long As It's Fun!
Once confident that no one could hear their conversation, Leighton stealthily glanced around and said: “Do you think I’m a fool? How much can a small gift from Jonathan be worth? He’s wealthy but stingy with Adela’s relatives like us. I wouldn’t be involved in this matter if I were caring!”“Why did you invite him then? Isn’t that only making matters worse?” Marcelo was even more puzzled.“Have you forgotten? Miss Lydia is pregnant!” Leighton suddenly blurted out.Marcelo blinked: “What does that have to do with Jonathan going to San Diego?”“Of course, it’s related. You need to find out who the child’s father in Miss Lydia’s womb is, do you? That person cannot marry Miss Lydia. But the Harris family’s fortune is enormous, and they can’t let their unmarried daughter have a child. They can’t abandon the baby, so they are looking for...”“A scapegoat?” Marcelo suddenly realized.“Exactly! Although Jonathan is rich, the Harris family has a decisive influence in San Diego. Jonathan’s cond

Over ten minutes later, the two arrived at a large square.The closely packed stalls were adorned with twinkling lanterns, carrying a nostalgic atmosphere.Many customers surrounded each stall."It's bustling, but not as much as before. I remember the last time I came here, it was so crowded, just like an anthill!"Adela looked at the scene and reminisced, a faint smile appearing on her lips."When was the last time you came here?""Probably about ten years ago." Adela said without thinking.Jonathan glanced at her, raising his eyebrows slightly: "Ten years ago?"Adela nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, I came with my father… Don't say more. Let me treat you to some grilled food! When my father was alive, he loved grilled food and beer the most. Last time, my father secretly took me here without telling my mother."Adela pulled Jonathan towards a grilled food stall. Following her, Jonathan finally understood why Adela had called him out so late.It turned out that she was missing someone.As

The birthday celebration ended successfully. When the family took a commemorative photo, the old lady smiled delightedly. Perhaps she never expected that at her age, so close to the end of her life, she would still have her entire family gathered to celebrate her birthday.After Sienna and Adela were expelled from the Kyle residence, Leighton completely cut off contact with Sienna.Over the years, the old lady spoke briefly to Sienna over the phone.“Adela, tonight I have a dinner meeting with a business partner. Can you join me? Oh, and Mr. Wang can come too.”As they were about to leave, a few of Jonathan’s people were departing when Leighton hurriedly chased after them.Leighton knew that if he mentioned setting Adela up, she would definitely refuse, so he made up a story about a business partner.Adela frowned and asked: “Why would I join your dinner with a business partner?”“Now that you’re a senior manager at the M&N fashion company and in charge of the Moonlight brand, my part

"Mr. Wang, if you can't progress with Adela, don't leave her to cease! If you don't like Adela, you must prefer a different type of girl, right? What do you think of Mr. Dermot's sister?"At this point, Leighton said: "Mr. Wang, just look at Mr. Dermot's sister. She's stunning, and she comes from a wealthy family as well. I think the two of you would make a great couple! Why not think about it? Adela with Mr. Dermot as one pair, and you with Miss Lydia as another - it would be perfect!""Uncle, will you stop it!" Adela could no longer keep her calm upon hearing his vulgar matchmaking attempts.However, Lydia nodded as if she was considering something and said: "I think it's a good idea!""The Harris family? I don't like him, so stop daydreaming." Adela said, her anger flaring."Are you upset? Even though I'm not a kingpin in San Diego, I'm not that insignificant either. Jonathan, don't refuse a toast or be forced to drink a penalty! I know you're arrogant because you have money, but l

The following morning,Adela came knocking on Jonathan's door. After he had dressed, he opened the door and invited her in."What's the matter so early in the morning?"Adela hesitantly said: "I told my mom about last night!""Oh, what did she say?" Jonathan asked, sitting down on the armrest of the sofa.This wasn't the first time Leighton had betrayed Adela for his benefit.Sienna must be very disappointed in her brother."From now on, our two families will have no more dealings except with my grandmother." Adela honestly replied.Leighton was a stubborn person."Today, I came to ask when you'll be leaving. My mom doesn't want to stay here any longer." Adela continued.Sienna had been excited to stay with her mother in San Diego for a few days.But who would have thought that Leighton, for his selfish reasons, would push his niece Adela to the brink of disaster?Disappointed, Sienna no longer felt like staying.Jonathan nodded in understanding: "I'll be here for a few more days, but

Two o’clock in the afternoon.Jonathan arrived punctually at the CAB club, where a staff member led him to Jacob’s office.The other man had been waiting for quite some time.“The ocean’s waves push forward, one after another. Seeing Mr. Wang’s demeanor, all I can think is that I’m getting old. The future still belongs to young men like you.” he said.Jacob smiled and stood up to greet him, extending a hand and saying: “Please, have a seat!”Jonathan responded with a beaming smile: “Of course, not a problem.”Jonathan stared intently at Jacob while Jacob glared back at him angrily. Their eyes locked, neither willing to back down or show any sign of weakness.People can also have a rebellious streak.Perhaps Jacob didn’t have strong feelings for Lydia, only having her bear a son.The child growing inside Lydia was the essence of him bloodline.After a while, Jonathan suddenly burst out laughing, breaking the silence.He said: “With Jacob’s current status, there’s no need to fear Whelan
Back From Prison! Chapter 176: Meeting First Love Again.
While strolling, Jonathan suddenly spotted a woman sitting under a tree.She was wearing a thin white coat, a light blue wide-brimmed hat for women, and sunglasses, with very fair skin.Jonathan immediately recognized her, his first love, Esther Thomas.Famous for her sweet beauty, Esther was adored by many children at the time as the sister next door.Jonathan was no exception. He even foolishly thought back then that when he grew up, he must marry Esther.Now, looking back, it was genuinely naive.Of course, it wouldn't be difficult for the current Jonathan to marry Esther. However, the childish wish from the past no longer existed.That was when Esther was seventeen or eighteen years old. About a decade ago, Esther had retreated from the public eye and began to study.It seemed that recently, there were rumors of Esther's return.Jonathan wasn't particularly interested in gossip and didn't pay much attention.Logically speaking, Esther had stopped her activities more than a decade

At this point, Jonathan opened the bottle and took a sniff.Jonathan frowned slightly: "Sedatives mixed with aphrodisiacs."Yikes!Esther's face turned pale.She knew who it was.But she couldn't believe that person would stoop so low!"Jonathan, this matter doesn't concern you, so don't ask too much. I'll handle it myself."It seemed that person had an unusual background, so Esther didn't want Jonathan to get involved.Jonathan didn't want to dig deeper, so he nodded and stood up: "It's getting late, Ms. Esther. If fate allows, we'll meet again."After Jonathan left, Esther murmured: "He said he's my die-hard fan, but as soon as he hears about trouble, he runs away."Although Esther seemed annoyed, she wasn't too upset, as this was a common occurrence.Moreover, if it weren't for Jonathan, she would have been in grave danger this time.Drinking bottled water could have had dire consequences.She couldn't believe Knox would be so audacious. After failing to win her heart multiple time
