Chapter 506
Chapter 506
Five years later, Marina was having a meeting at the company.
Clad in a professional suit, Jessica sat on Marina’s left with a somber expression.
Here to discuss a collaboration. Peter straightened his tie and stood up slowly.
Then, Peter winked at Marina’s assistant.
Jessica pretended not to see anything.
Jessica even gave him a warning look.
However, Peter did not restrain himself at all.
When he went on stage to give a speech, Peter could walk past Jessica.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was looking over in that direction, Peter ran his fingers down her back.
Jessica’s body stiffened instantly.
However, on such an occasion, there was no way to teach Peter a lesson.
Jessica could only take a deep breath. After the meeting ended, she would definitely make Peter kneel and apologize!
Peter was still unaware of the impending crisis.
After he went on stage. Peter turned on the computer before him.
“Now, let me tell you about our project.”
Actually, with Peter’s status, there was no need for him to personally give a report on stage.
However, it was said that men were the most handsome when they were serious.
Jessica had been working overtime at the company for almost a week.
Since Peter couldn’t see Jessica at home, Peter had to think of a way to charm Jessica at the company.
Thus, Peter had to perform well in front of his wife.
But the moment Peter turned on the computer screen, it began to play a video of Peter being chased around the house by
his mother.
“You brat, I told you before that you can’t leave your socks lying around. How many times do I have to say it before you listen?!”
“Who doesn’t leave their socks around?” Peter retorted stubbornly as he dodged.
Peter was subsequently chased around the house by his mother for his rebuttal.
Everyone in the conference room was stunned.
All of them wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to.
Their stomachs hurt from holding it in.
Meanwhile, Peter’s expression turned ugly. Peter wanted to turn off the video.
However, Peter realized that the mouse in his hand was not working at all.
No matter what Peter did, the video on the big screen showed no signs of stopping.
On the contrary, it began to play in a loop.
“You’re not allowed to look! Get out!” Peter could only chase everyone out of the meeting room in desperation.
In Marina’s office, Evan lowered his head and accepted the scolding from his mother.
“Didn’t I tell you not to play pranks on your uncle anymore?!” Marina’s face was extremely cold.
The scene in the office just now was caused by her precious son.
“I know I was wrong.” Evan admitted his mistake at once.
You are quick to admit your mistakes, but you continue to do them again next time. I think I’ve been too lenient on you. That’s why you are so spoiled!” Marina’s expression did not soften.
Evan lowered his head even more.
Evan had inherited the intelligence of Marina and Simon.
Although Evan was only three years old, he was already very familiar with hacking into Peter’s computer.
Of course, Evan’s ability to cause trouble was also top-notch.
Marina felt that she had lost more hair than usual recently out of frustration.
It was all this little brat’s fault!
“Alright, alright. It’s not a big deal. It’s enough just to teach him a lesson or two, Peter might be the victim, but Peter relented when he saw how pitiful the little guy was.
“Just keep spoiling Evan and he’ll definitely destroy the house in the future.” Marina snorted.
“That won’t happen. Our Evan knows his limits. That video isn’t a big deal, Peter pleaded on Evan’s behalf.
“That’s right. I didn’t even release the video of Uncle Peter getting drunk and hugging the trash can and shouting for Aunt Jessica not to leave him.” Evan raised his head and added.
Peter went silent.
“When did you take the video?!” Peter turned his head stiflly and stared at the little boy before him with a burning gaze.
“Is there a need for me to film it personally? There are cameras everywhere on the streets. I only need to look for them,” Evan said arrogantly.
Peter was speechless.
“Hand over that video!” Peter demanded.
“No!” Evan refused without hesitation.
“Are you sure you don’t want to hand it over?”
“No!”
“Alright!” Peter said firmly.
Then, Peter’s gaze landed on Marina.
“I suddenly feel that children still need to be educated. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
“After all, you can tell what a child can grow up to be when he is young. Evan’s not young anymore. He should be able to withstand the beating.
“Marina. I’ll call my secretary now and have our family rules sent to you.
“We have to let this brat know what rules are. Otherwise, we’ll be embarrassed when we go out in the future!”
“You clearly didn’t say that just now!” Evan panicked when he heard this.
His mother was tough on discipline.
“Well, that was before I knew you had been collecting all my humiliating moments!” Peter stated.
Then, Peter grabbed Jessica, who had been standing on the side.
“Marina, since I’ve suffered a grievous injury at your company today, I’m going to borrow your secretary to appease my broken heart.
“She won’t be working this afternoon.” After saying that, Peter pulled Jessica away without waiting for Marina to agree. “Leave Aunt Jessica here!” Evan panicked when he saw that Peter was going to take Jessica away.
Evan stepped forward and prepared to stop Peter.
“Get back here!” Marina shouted.
Evan could only retract his steps unwillingly.
“Why do you have to go against your Uncle Peter every day? He treats you so well. Do you know that you’ll make him sad?” Marina lectured her son.
“But Uncle Peter also made me sad.” Evan was indignant.
“When did he make you sad?” Marina frowned.
Peter doted on her son more than Marina did.
Peter would never make Evan sad.
“Uncle Peter married the person I like, so I can’t be with the person I like anymore. Of course I’m sad!” Evan said as he sat on the carpet and began to throw a tantrum.
Marina Bailey was exasperated.
“Someone he loves?” Marina thought.
“You little brat, you’re actually in love at such a young age! I’ll take you to your daddy now and let him teach you a lesson!” Marina lifted Evan up.
“No, I don’t want to look for Daddy!” Evan panicked when he heard this.
After all, Simon’s form of discipline was even more ruthless than mommy’s!
“That’s not up to you!” Marina picked up Evan and marched towards the door without another word.
However, just as they reached the elevator, it suddenly opened.
Simon carried their obedient daughter out of the elevator.
Emily was wearing a pink princess dress and had a doll in her hand.
Emily’s pink and chubby face was as adorable as it could get.
Simon carried Emily around almost all the time.
Simon was afraid that Emily would be abducted by others.
“What’s wrong? Did this brat make you unhappy again?” Simon’s gentle fatherly gaze changed to sternness when it swept
over to Evan.
“This brat hacked his Uncle Peter’s computer and let the entire company witness the video of him being beaten by Aunt Daisy, Marina said in exasperation.
“Carry your daughter in and leave the rest to me.” Simon handed Emily to Marina Bailey.
“Mommy,” Emily called out softly.
Marina’s heart was about to melt from Emily’s voice.
“Be good. Mommy will take you to watch cartoons,” Marina said as she carried her daughter back to the office.
“Mommy, don’t go!
“Emily, don’t leave me alone!” Evan still wanted to grab onto his last straw.
However, Emily was quietly lying on Marina’s shoulder and gave Evan a sly smile.
Evan was startled.
“What was going on? Did he see wrongly?” Evan thought.
Evan saw his sister smile like the big bad wolf.
Everything clicked in Evan’s mind suddenly.
The person who had given him the idea was his sister.
Emily had told Evan that if Aunt Jessica saw Uncle Peter’s true colors, Aunt Jessica wouldn’t be with Uncle Peter anymore.
“Emily had done it on purpose!” It dawned on Evan.
“Didn’t Emily just eat his dessert last week?! Was there a need to hurt him like this?” Evan thought.
“Daddy, it’s all Emily’s idea!” Evan shouted when he realized what was going on.
“I think you really need to be taught a lesson. How dare you frame your sister? Let’s have a good chat today!” Simon carried Evan and went to the reception room next door.
After that day, Evan realized that the sister that everyone thought was obedient and cute was actually not at all.
However, other than Evan, no one else noticed this.
Evan announced that it was so difficult to be the only one who knew the truth!
As for Marina, she and her daughter sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and drew.
Emily was particularly sensitive to color.
At the age of three, Emily could already accurately capture many colors.
Meanwhile, Evan, who was filled with resentment, was playing soccer in the garden outside.
A child’s temper comes and goes very quickly.
After a match, Evan had forgotten about what had happened.
Evan’s face was brimming with a bright smile.
When Marina raised her head and looked over, Simon’s gaze also happened to wander in her direction.
Their gazes met across the air.
At that moment, Marina seemed to have seen the rest of her life.
With you by my side, my years would be tranquil and peaceful.
With you by my side. I have my happy ending.
