Chapter 1011 Not Like That
Meanwhile, Jack was just about to step into the Damaris residence when he bumped into his parents. “Dad, Mom, what are you doing here?”
Ever since he had proven his capabilities in taking over the family business, both Titus and Priscilla started to travel to other places to do their medical consultations.
For some unknown reason, they came home without informing him. Priscilla frowned and shot a reproachful look at her son before asking, “I heard that you are involved with Lucian’s ex-wife?”
His parents must have seen the overwhelming discussions on the Internet which took place a while ago. As a result, they did an investigation on Roxanne and found out that she had two children.
What was more surprising to them was the fact that Roxanne was Lucian’s ex-wife! The thought of her son socializing with a divorcee with children irked Priscilla.
Jack looked at his mother in puzzlement. “How did you find out?” Since Jack did not deny it, then it must be true. Priscilla was displeased. “The online comments went wild a while ago. All of our relatives are asking us about it!”
Jack became even more confused after hearing that. “They know that Roxanne is Lucian’s—”
Before he could finish his sentence, his mother cut him off. “We did our own investigation! Do you want others to know that you are seeing a divorcee!”
Priscilla found it difficult to suppress her anger when she saw her son’s reaction. “I’m the one who brought you up, and I have never interfered in your private life. You can date any woman you want to.”
She stared furiously at Jack before continuing, “But, why can’t you find someone else? Must you date a divorcee with two children? On top of that, her ex-husband is that guy from the Farwell family! You’ll be made a laughingstock once people find out about this!”
After listening to his mother’s lecture, Jack showed no remorse. Instead, a grin appeared on his face. His unrepentant response annoyed Priscilla even more, and she glared at Titus Damaris.
Sensing his wife’s stare, Titus felt helpless. However, under the pressure of his wife, he had no choice but to say something, “Your mom is right. There are so many women out there. Why must you find someone who is in the same social circle as us?”
Both the Farwell family and the Damaris family were prominent families in Horington.
How are we going to socialize with them if our son really ends up with Lucian’s ex-wife?
Titus thought he was stern enough in his reprimand. Unfortunately, he fell short of his wife’s expectations.
He turned around to find that the grin on Jack’s face was even more apparent than before.
Titus frowned. “Why are you smiling? This is a serious matter!”
It was only then Jack walked up to his parents and sat down on a single-seater couch.
It was obvious that he had something to say.
Priscilla exchanged glances with Titus before the two of them turned their attention to their son.
Jack then started to explain slowly, “You’ve got the wrong idea.”
When his parents heard that, they looked perplexed.
The comments on the Internet are going crazy. How can we be mistaken? Have those netizens gotten it wrong too?
“So, are those photos fake?” Priscilla could not help but question him.
Jack shook his head before replying, “Of course not. But, it isn’t what they think.”
Titus and Priscilla still eyed their son with suspicion.
They had watched Jack grow up.
In all those years, they had never once seen their son behaving so intimately with a woman.
