Chapter 473
While Steven and Jalen were in a stalemate, ina came down the stairs. Jalen ignored Steven and
walked over to ina.
He asked, “Are you done with the talk?”
ina nodded and looked at Jalen meaningfully, but she did not say anything.
Jalen could feel the emotions in her eyes, but since she did not say anything, he would not ask, at least
not at this moment.
Not long after, Nitzan came down from upstairs. “Let’s eat.”
Soon, the four of them sat at the dining table. It was unknown whether it was because of ina, but the
atmosphere became a little awkward.
Nitzan knew that ina was unhappy after the talk. He did not try tofort her. This kind of thing
could only let herself think it through. There was no point in trying to persuade her. It would only upset
her more.
Nitzan looked at Jalen. Seeing that Jalen was staring at ina, he sighed helplessly.
Jalen was good in every aspect in Nitzan’s eyes. However, once he fell in love, he lost himself. Nitzan
didn’t know how much Jalen would have to suffer from being with ina.
Nitzan decided to forget it.
The children had their own blessings, so he didn’t want to care too much.
“Ms. Gainsford, my son Triston is working in yourpany. Your help in his career will be highly
appreciated.” Steven suddenly spoke, surprising the other three people at the dining table.
ina was the most surprised. She couldn’t believe that Steven directly admitted that Triston was his
son and didn’t care what Jalen and Nitzan thought.
She looked at Nitzan. Nitzan’s expression was normal and he was still eating calmly. It seemed that he
already knew that Steven had another son.
When ina came back to her senses, she smiled politely and said in a distant tone, “If Triston is
capable, he will naturally be put in an important position. If not, no matter how much you pave the way
for him, I’m afraid it will all be in vain in the end.”
ina was not stupid. She knew Nitzan was aware of everything. Now that Triston suddenly came to
work at herpany, it was most likely rted to her identity.
These people had ulterior motives. She really disliked them.
Steven’s expression changed slightly. Perhaps he did not expect ina to be so rude to him.
ina ignored him and focused on eating the food. She did not care what Steven was thinking at all.
Jalen was secretly delighted and thought that ina did a good job.
After dinner, ina said goodbye to Tyrone. Jalen walked out of the Halton’s residence with her.
On the way back to the apartment, ina did not speak, which made Jalen feel uneasy.
“E, you came today to ask Grandpa about your origin, right?” Jalen took the initiative to speak. He
felt that staying silent like this was not a solution.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
ina retracted her gaze from the window and looked at him coldly. “You know everything, right?”
“Yes.” Jalen did not deny it. He understood that he could no longer deceive
ina. Otherwise, he would only push this woman further and further away from him.
ina chuckled and said with a bit of self-mockery, “Nitzan said that you actually don’t know anything.”
She was actually hesitating about how to ask the question just now. If she didn’t ask properly, Jalen
would probably think that she was suspecting him.
But now it seemed that she was too cautious. In fact, he already knew about it.
“I only found out about itter.’ At that time, he had already fallen in love with ina.
ina did not care about this. She sneered, “Jalen, I was wondering if your love for me also has
something to do with my true family background. I always thought it was strange that the dignified
president of the Halton Group would suddenly fall in love with me.”
She never believed in love at first sight, nor did she feel that she was extremely charming.
From the looks of it, she suspected that Jalen probably had ulterior motives from the start.
