Ex-Husband Wants Badly To Resume Their Marriage novel Chapter 77

The next day, just as Jameson went downstairs, Jacob ran over to him swiftly and said, "Mr.Proctor, something happened!"

Whether it was before or after their engagement, Martin had always been cold to Erica, and their families only regarded their marriage as a business cooperation, not caring about their feelings.

The only one who took this engagement seriously was Erica.

She was afraid that Martin would dislike her and reject this marriage, but after the engagement, she had nothing to fear.

Sharon's pregnancy was like a thorn in her heart, and she blamed Martin's indifference and alienation on Sharon.

Sharon didn't get pregnant during the three-year marriage with Jameson.

How could she be pregnant after their divorce? Erica thought that Martin was likely to be the baby's father.

Early this morning, Erica made a scene at the dining table.

However, she was very smart.

She did not mention Sharon's name.

She only said that there was a woman who was pregnant with Martin's child, and she wanted Albert to help her get rid of the woman.

Even if Albert found out the woman that she talked about was Sharon, it had nothing to do with her.

When Albert heard Erica's words, he was ablaze with anger.

In fact, he didn't care about whether Martin and Erica loved each other.

However, Martin's affair would be a discredit to his family.

Moreover, it happened a few days after Martin and Erica were engaged.

At this critical juncture, it would affect the cooperation between the two families.

Jacob said, "Mr.Proctor wants an explanation.The Mortons are on their way to the old mansion."

Jameson asked calmly, "How did Erica know that?"

"I'm not sure yet.I'm going to investigate now.’ 

"No need."

Jameson walked out as he said in a cold voice, "I'll go ask her."

In the Proctor's Albert sat on the sofa silently with the walking stick in his hands, his face cold.

Erica, who was sitting opposite to him, was crying bitterly.Albert became impatient after a while.

"What's the use of crying now? You were determined to marry Martin.You know he doesn't like you.It is normal that he has an affair.’ Erica sobbed, "That woman has been pestering him, and now she is pregnant.They don't care about my feelings.’ 

Albert shouted angrily, "Don't worry about the baby! Martin would not dare to have it!"

Evie glanced at the door and chipped in, "You are right.Not every illegitimate child has such a good luck."

After she finished her words, Jameson came.

A servant greeted, "Mr.Proctor.’ Jameson nodded.

His face was expressionless.

The dining hall went quiet, and the moment turned sour.

Erica stopped crying anymore and sobbed.

Just then, Jeffery went downstairs.

He said with a sigh, "Jameson, come with me to the garden.I have something to say to you.’ 

After they left, Albert frowned and asked, "Do you have to provoke him now?"

"She is a friend of mine.I admit that I like her, but she has rejected me,’ Martin explained.

Then he said to Erica, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Erica did not expect that Martin would admit he liked Sharon in front of everyone.

She became angry from embarrassment.

"I knew it! I knew you liked her! What's so good about her that she has fascinated you? Even my cousin...’ Halfway through her words, Erica realized that she had spilled the beans, so she covered her mouth.

Albert frowned.

"Erica, tell me clearly, what happened to your cousin?"

"What's wrong with me?"

Jameson's cold voice came from behind.It sent a chill down Erica's spine.

Erica was terrified.

She stammered, "No, nothing..."

Jeffery said, "Erica, since Martin has explained everything clearly, stop making a scene.Apologize to Mr.Morton and Ms.Keira."

"But..."

Jameson said indifferently, "You were just engaged.You can call off the engagement at any time if you want.’ 

Erica stopped talking, but obviously, she was unwilling to give up.Jeffery apologized to Morton and Keira to subside their anger.

Although Jeffery had a low status in his family, he was the gentlest and most courteous.

If he wasn't disabled, the Proctor Group wouldn't be under Jameson's sole authority.
