Memories Of The Night 462 Chapter 462: Her Heart Is Full Of Sorrow

Hearing Edward's words, Jane is panicked and shocked. She can't help blurting out, "What?"

Has Aaron promised the engagement?

If Aaron is engaged to Annie, Duke won't have the opportunity to be with Annie or to compete for the succession of the Wilson family.

Jane thinks in her heart.

But she doesn't dare show too much surprise or worry in front of Edward for fear of accidentally exposing her true thoughts.

Jane suppresses her inner panic and draws a slightly stiff smile on her face. She says slowly, "Edward, you're awesome. Aaron has made the decision before. He always won't change it easily. How do you make Aaron promise the engagement?"

Edward raises a triumphant smile on his face, "No one knows a son better than his father. I'm quite clear what matters to him and what does not matter to him. Even if he grows up now, he's still my son. Naturally, I have my own way to deal with him."

"Edward, you're still vigorous in mind. Now it's good. Since Aaron has promised this engagement, we keep our promise to the Johnson family."

On the surface, Jane flatters Edward, but she feels restless in her heart.

Aaron and Annie's engagement is coming soon.

Jane originally thought that if Aaron refused the engagement with all his heart, Duke still could have a chance.

But now…

Aaron has agreed to the engagement.

What should they do to get Annie back from Aaron and get the inheritance of the Wilson family?

In the evening, Jane goes to see Duke on the pretext of delivering his clothes. Jane says in a low voice, "Duke! Your father has succeeded in persuading Aaron to accept the engagement! Come up with your ideas! What on earth should we do now?"

When seeing Jane's eager look, he begins to comfort her by saying, "Mom, don't worry. Actually, I already have a way to deal with it. The engagement ceremony between Aaron and Annie must not be so smooth!"

Hearing the words, Jane looks surprised, "What's the way? Is that useful?"

Duke smiles and answers, "Mom, do you remember what I told you the other day that a woman came out of Aaron's office, crying?"

"Yeah, I remember! What's the relations.h.i.+p between that woman and Aaron?"

"That woman is Aaron's fiancée, and they have a child."

When Jane hears this, she's surprised, "What? A child?"

"Yes. That woman is Katrina Miller, the granddaughter of Eric Simon, the richest man in Abbe City. Katrina Miller has lived outside for a long time and has just returned to the Simon family. After my investigation, I find that Aaron and the woman had a good relations.h.i.+p before. They had a child and have prepared the wedding. Just on the wedding day, Aaron disappeared and fled. Then the woman came to Hadley City, but Aaron seemed to have changed completely. Aaron always ignores her and seemingly doesn't want to see her again."

On hearing Duke's words, Jane even can't believe it.

"Duke, are you serious?"

No wonder she can't believe it. It's too much information.

Aaron used to be with a woman?

Not only did they prepare for the marriage, but they even had a child?

After all, Jane always thinks Aaron is single.

But the fact is that he even has an illegitimate child?

If Edward and the Johnson family know this news...

It's absolutely enough to make trouble.

The news is exciting enough, but she still has to make sure that nothing is wrong.

"Mom, that's true! I have a cla.s.smate in Abbe City. He himself has seen Aaron with this woman. He has also seen Aaron hold an engagement ceremony with this woman. At that time, Aaron and this woman's marriage was very popular in the whole of Abbe City. Few people did not know about it!"

Hearing Duke's words…

Jane finally believes in the facticity of the matter.

Duke has always been serious and reliable.

Since it's his investigation, it must be true. Absolutely true!

Jane breathes a sigh of relief and flashes a smug smile on her face, "Even G.o.d is helping us! Aaron has such a past! We can expose this matter at the engagement ceremony. How will he explain it to Frank and Annie?"

Jane exhorts Duke, "Duke, during this period of time, you must keep a close eye on that woman and do ideological work for her so that she can cooperate with us on the day of engagement. Will Annie marry Aaron when she knows that he has an illegitimate son?"

Duke smiles gently, "Mom! You can rest a.s.sured that I'm already getting ready!"

Coming out of Duke's room…

Jane, who was panicked at first, is now in a better mood.

At this time, a five-star hotel room in Hadley City...

Katrina is packing her luggage and doesn't know what's coming.

Katrina lies weakly in bed after stuffing everything into her suitcase.

Her arm covers her eyes to s.h.i.+eld the dazzling light.

In these two days...

She has visited Aaron's villa for the last time...

The villa where she was trapped. The villa where she tried to escape but failed.

She has gone to a high-end mall for the last time...

The mall where Aaron took her to go shopping for the first time.

She has gone to the amus.e.m.e.nt park in Hadley City for the last time...

She has gone to all the places where she has recollections which are relevant to Aaron.

It counts as the last nostalgia, and also as...

A farewell.

From then on, she really won't appear in front of him. She really won't come back to this city.

This city has brought her a wonderful memory...

At the same time, this city also makes her feel extremely sad.

She has promised her baby that she will take Aaron back.

But now, she's alone.

Her heart is full of sorrow and pain.

This is her last night in Hadley City.

Early tomorrow morning...

She's going to take a plane to Abbe City. She'll go back.

Aaron, goodbye!

From then on, they'll never see again.

Baby...

Sorry, Mom is useless.

Mother can't take Dad back.

Please forgive Mom.

In the future, Mom will love you well; even Mom is alone.
