Chapter 653


    Sometimeter, news went around that the Universe Group might be nning to join the theme park


    project.


    Dora also came across the details of the news on a financial TV station.


    She was very shocked.


    These days, most people active in the business world knew that theme park project was a big piece of


    cake, and if you could get it right, you would definitely make a lot of money.


    Originally, the Stone family and the Moran family could have fully taken over the project; thus, even


    though the Todd family was also tempted to take part in the project, they did not want to get involved in


    it.


    After all, it was a really big cake. No one would be willing to share it with yet another person.


    Then suddenly, the Bowman family got involved. This really surprised Dora. She couldn’t stop thinking


    that if one more family was entitled to share the cake, then why couldn’t it be her family? The Todd


    family?


    Wasn’t Wyatt’s rtionship with Maurice as solid as ever? How could Maurice prefer to have Jonathan


    added to this project, rather than give the Todd family a chance to prove themselves?


    Doramented bitterly that the Todd family had missed a golden opportunity to make a big profit.


    As these thoughts reeled through her head, Wyatt slipped into the room.


    “Wyatt, so you still remember the way back home?”


    Dora walked up to him, with a look of dissatisfaction in her eyes. She had asked her son to go for a


    blind date, but he had clearly not gone there.


    Then she picked up the strong smell of alcohol from him.


    “Were you drinking? What happened to you, Wyatt? Why did you stand the girl up?”


    Wyatt nced at his mother with a long face.


    Without warning, he suddenly flung a pile of documents down in front of Dora and angrily asked, “Mom,


    can you exin what these documents mean to me?”


    Dora was confused. She slowly reached down and picked up the documents. As soon as she read the


    content of the documents, her expression changed instantly.


    These were all documents of Nicole’s mother, Kyra, who had been treated for heart disease at a time in


    the hospital.


    It clearly recorded the time when Kyra was sick, the treatment process, and her attending doctor who


    had a deep rtionship with the Todd family.


    “Mom, tell me the truth today. What really happened that time? I want to hear the truth. Why did you


    have to find a doctor for Nicole’s mother?”


    Wyatt kept his gaze fixed on Dora’s face, as if searching for the truth there.


    He knew his mother well. Dora was a profit-oriented person. Every move she made was to her own


    benefit. Every action she took was to ensure that she could make more money. She didn’t know Nicole


    at that time, but she was willing to help her mother find a famous doctor. There had to be an ulterior


    motive for that action she took.


    As a matter of fact, he already had his answer in his heart. It was a vague exnation, but…


    Wyatt asked again, “Mom, did Nicole promise you anything in return? Is that why you were willing to


    help her?”


    Dora dropped the documents and flew into a fit of rage. “Wyatt, you’re my son. How can you be so rude


    to me? Have you forgotten that I’m your mother? Why are you disrespecting me because of this


    issue?”


    “Mom, I just want to know the truth. That’s all I want to know.” Wyatt maintained his stance and refused


    to back down.


    “Okay. I’ll tell you what you want to know.” Dora gritted her teeth. “At that time I did contact Nicole, but I


    also had good intentions and wanted to help her mother recover from that terrible illness that was


    guing her. But this woman was so ungrateful that she left without hesitation when you needed her


    the most after that car ident! I really regret helping her. I didn’t mention this earlier because I didn’t


    want to hurt you. Do you still wish to speak for such a bad and ungrateful woman now?”


    Wyatt’s eyes were filled with disappointment after he heard his mother’s statement.


    “Mom, why are you lying again?”


    Dora’s heart skipped a beat. However, she maintained herposure and asked, “Lying? I don’t


    understand what you mean by that, Wyatt.”


    Wyatt stared hard at her and said, “If all you have said to me is the truth, then you should loathe Nicole


    very much. But why did the Todd family sponsor Nicole’s first movie which made Nicole be


    famous? Why was it sponsored by our family? Mom, I need you to exin it to me. Can you do that?”


    Dora was stunned. How did he find out? There was an expression of shock on her face as she stared


    at her son.


    She had done all these things carefully and without the knowledge of anybody, but she had not


    anticipated that Wyatt would manage to find out everything.


    Now she was stuck. There was no better excuse she could use to cheat him.


    Dora sighed heavily and took in a deep breath. She dropped all the pretenses and said, “It seems that


    you have indeed grown up a lot in the past few years. You now have the guts to question your mother


    in such a condescending manner. Do you want to break away from the Todd family for that woman?”


    His tone softened a little, but the expression on his face still remained very serious.


    “Mom, no matter what you say, I have to know the truth today. I choose toe to you first, instead of


    just going straight to ask Nicole. This is just because I respect you. I hope you won’t let me down


    again.”


    Knowing she could no longer hide the truth, Dora sat down slowly on her chair and made up her mind


    to tell her son the truth.


    “You want to know the truth? Okay, I’ll tell you everything. Get ready, Wyatt. Herees the truth you


    have been craving!”N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
