Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 212: Holding Hands
Sabrina Hayes was so embarrassed that her ears turned red. She hurriedly declined, saying, "No... no need, let’s leave it at that, goodbye, Mr. Fitzgerald..."
She was afraid that if she slowed down even a little, Zara would say something even more outrageous, so she hung up the video call immediately, not waiting for any reaction from the other side.
As she put away her phone, Tessa Hughes beside her was laughing crazily, hugging the little one tightly and petting her fervently, "Hahaha... Darling Zara, you are just too cute!"
The little one didn’t understand why, but seeing her godmother laughing happily, she laughed along as well.
Sabrina felt an even bigger headache.
Ever since her little one fell ill, she hadn’t cared about her mother’s reputation, and had been continually taking advantage of Mr. Fitzgerald, making her utterly ashamed.
How can she face Mr. Fitzgerald after all of this!!!
Zara was completely unaware of any wrongdoing but was finally able to sleep peacefully.
On the other side, as Jasper Fitzgerald put away his phone, the image of Sabrina Hayes turning red and wishing she could vanish right before the call ended was still vivid in his mind.
A hint of amusement crossed his eyes.
At that moment, Nash Spencer walked in, looking slightly serious and called out, "Sir."
Seeing his expression, Jasper knew there must be something to report and immediately reined in his amusement, asking, "What’s happened? Speak!"
Nash didn’t mince words, directly reporting, "It’s about the people we have investigating the Quinlan Family in Aethel. Feedback has come regarding the developments of the situation from back then."
Jasper’s eyes froze for a moment, "As I suspected?"
Nash took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Back then, the marriage between Chairman Quinlan and Young Master Quinlan’s mother was not something they were forced into.
On the contrary, it was Chairman Quinlan who coerced her... into having a child."
Dylan Quinlan’s mother was named Carmen; she was a well-known beauty in Aethel when she was young, from a declining scholarly family.
"Young Master Quinlan’s mother originally had a boyfriend they were very much in love, planning to marry if nothing unexpected happened.
Due to Chairman Quinlan’s despicable tactics and oppression, they were forced to separate. After having a child, Young Master Quinlan’s mother perhaps married into the Quinlan Family for the sake of her family’s reputation.
After the marriage, she was understandably miserable, which angered Chairman Quinlan, so during her pregnancy, he continuously had affairs and met his current wife.
You know the things that followed, after Young Master Quinlan’s mother died, the outside world began defaming her, saying she stole someone else’s love and tried to harm his current wife, ultimately falling into the river to her death..."
The more Nash spoke, the angrier he became.
He never expected the truth could be like this.
Shane Quinlan truly was a monster in disguise!
He continued, "The matter of Young Master Quinlan’s mother’s death was concealed and buried by the Quinlan Family, leaving the truth unknown.
However, I discovered something — after Young Master Quinlan’s mother died, all the servants of the Quinlan Family were dismissed and replaced with a new batch...
Considering the things that happened before their marriage, I suspect this was a murder after all. Young Master Quinlan’s mother’s death... perhaps hides another secret!"
After hearing Nash’s report, Jasper heavily frowned.
Although he had long suspected something like this in the event.
He never imagined that the situation was even worse than expected!
Nash, who also had a decent relationship with Dylan Quinlan, couldn’t help but feel indignant, "The Quinlan Family’s tactics are truly filthy, turning black into white, and even after someone’s death, spreading rumors, causing the whole of Aethel to believe it, thinking it was Young Master Quinlan’s mother’s fault!
Even Young Master Quinlan became a victim of this affair! It’s simply unforgivable!"
All these years, Dylan and Carmen have endured all sorts of ugly names.
The Quinlans, however, watched with peace of mind.
Jasper’s expression turned cold, "No wonder Grandpa Quinlan always wanted Dylan to return to take over the family business; he must know some inside information and, feeling guilty, wants to compensate."
Nash frowned even further, disdain reflecting in his eyes, "But after all, he’s still protecting his son. What Young Master Quinlan has suffered over the years can’t just be compensated by taking over the family business?!"
Jasper didn’t reply.
This token couldn’t compensate at all.
Friend, because of guilt, in order to atone for his mother’s sake, has voluntarily stepped away from inheriting the Quinlan Family, even moved away from Aethel to hide in Veridia, becoming a harmless psychology teacher, letting go of his lofty aspirations...
Who would have thought that he and his mother were the real victims?
Nash himself also realized this point.
Yet, there was still something he didn’t understand, "Sir, why do you think Old Master Quinlan, knowing the inside story, would still dare let Young Master Quinlan return?
Isn’t he afraid that in the future, when things come to light, Young Master Quinlan will seek revenge on his father?"
Jasper coldly snorted, "This is precisely where his cleverness lies, raising the person to such a position will make Dylan hesitant.
If Dylan really assumes that position, with so many people under The Quinlan Group, he can’t just disregard everything in the face of pressure.
You think it’s out of guilt or kindness?
But businessmen remain businessmen, even when old, still calculating.
Auntie Rochelle had no background, to them her death was just a life, nothing compared to the Quinlan Family’s honor?"
Listening to all this, Nash couldn’t help but develop a distaste for the Quinlan Family, "The entire family, except for Young Master Quinlan, are all despicable..."
He truly felt it’s unjust for Young Master Quinlan and his mother!
Nash then asked, "What should we do about this matter? Should we tell Young Master Quinlan?"
The thought of the other party learning this truth, not knowing how he would react, made Nash hesitant to imagine.
Jasper’s eyes grew cold and deep, giving Nash instructions, "Continue investigating Auntie Rochelle’s death. Since we already know there’s something fishy, we naturally need to find evidence!
As for Dylan, I will find an opportunity to inform him of the truth.
The Quinlans have wronged him and must pay the price for their deeds back then."
By the end of the conversation, Jasper Fitzgerald’s eyes were icy cold.
Nash Spencer understood that his master would never allow his friend to suffer.
So, he immediately nodded and responded, "Alright, I will have someone look deeper into it right now!"
Nash Spencer soon withdrew from the room.
...
The next day was Monday.
After having breakfast, Sabrina Hayes took Zara to school.
Zara seemed no different than before, but Sabrina was still a bit anxious.
She felt that the little cub’s current situation was quite unstable, so after dropping her off at school, Sabrina explained the situation to Dylan Quinlan in detail.
"Her illness recurred a few days ago, and I’m not sure if there will be any issues following this, so I hope Mr. Quinlan can keep a close eye on her.
If there’s anything unusual with Zara, please contact me immediately."
She couldn’t help but feel worried.
But as Jasper Fitzgerald had told her before, the little cub needs to go out, socialize, and interact more with other kids.
Keeping her at home constantly would not be good for her condition.
After much hesitation today, Sabrina decided to send her to school.
However, she didn’t mention Zara calling Jasper "Daddy"...
It was just too awkward to talk about.
Dylan Quinlan understood her feelings and immediately reassured her, "Dr. Nash, don’t worry. I will keep an eye on Zara."
After Sabrina left, the ease on Dylan Quinlan’s face faded slightly.
Out of concern for Zara and to better guide the child’s mental state, Dylan Quinlan didn’t hesitate too long and directly called his friend.
"You handled this personally, yet the little cub’s illness didn’t improve, instead relapsed? That’s not scientific, nor should it happen!"
Faced with his friend’s question, Jasper Fitzgerald calmly replied, "I hadn’t expected to encounter her father at the art exhibition, which would stimulate her and cause an emotional transfer deviation."
Dylan Quinlan didn’t quite understand, "What do you mean by emotional transfer?"
Jasper Fitzgerald explained concisely.
Dylan Quinlan listened with a face of shock, "I never would have guessed this..."
He chuckled and couldn’t help but tease, "How does it feel being called ’Daddy’? Who would have thought, my dear Jasper is still unmarried, hasn’t even held a girl’s hand, yet suddenly has such a big child..."
Despite his friend’s teasing, Jasper Fitzgerald didn’t get angry; instead, he coolly corrected, "Held hands..."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Leaving Dylan Quinlan staring wide-eyed at his phone.
What did Jasper mean by "held hands" just now?
With whom?
Wait a moment...
Could it be with Dr. Nash???
He felt his suspicion was correct.
The only woman around Jasper seemed to be Dr. Nash.
Dylan Quinlan called Jasper Fitzgerald again, wanting to confirm, but no matter how many times he dialed, Jasper didn’t pick up.
Helplessly, he had to give up on this piece of gossip.
That evening, Jordan Hawthorne arrived at the school gates with paintings.
When Dylan Quinlan heard the security guard reporting this, he felt something wasn’t right.
Why did this ex-husband come back again?
He was the cause of Zara’s illness over the weekend, yet he had the audacity to show up?
Dylan Quinlan furrowed his brows and immediately called Sabrina Hayes to inform her about it. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Upon hearing that Jordan was there to see Zara again, Sabrina couldn’t suppress her anger.
Hasn’t this ended yet?
Fuming with rage, she instructed Dylan Quinlan, "Don’t let him see her, keep Zara inside for now, I’m on my way!"
"Okay."
Dylan Quinlan also supported Sabrina’s decision, and after hanging up, he instructed the security guard to keep watch.
Sabrina arrived quickly.
From afar, seeing Jordan’s figure, her anger burned fiercely.
However, with so many people at the school gate due to dismissal time, she couldn’t shout loudly.
With a face flushed with anger, she walked up, gritting her teeth, and said to Jordan, "Jordan Hawthorne, we need to talk!!!"
Seeing her appear, Jordan also had a cold look.
He asked, "Talk about what? Planning to block me from seeing Zara again?"
With a mocking tone, he said, "Let me tell you, Sabrina Hayes, I don’t care which man you’re involved with, but my daughter is my daughter. Don’t expect her to call anyone else ’father’!
If you insist on doing so, I’m not against taking you to court to fight for her custody!"
