Chapter 175 Pretend Drunk and Deceive Others, Isn’t He Good at It?


    Jason saw the expression on her face and the corners of his mouth slightly lifted. He deliberately


    asked, “What’s wrong?”


    He was doing it on purpose!


    Don’t think she didn’t notice him smirking!


    Alta felt inexplicably anxious and gritted her teeth, replying, “Nothing!”


    Jason nodded like he hadn’t noticed her emotions and said, “Water.”


    But he didn’t reach out to take it. Instead, he looked at Alta. His gaze was like signaling her to feed him.


    Alta was extremely speechless. She could only assume that he was extremely drunk to behave so


    shamelessly.


    With great patience, she brought the cup close to his lips and fed him the water.


    After Jason finished drinking, he licked his lips with a pleased expression. He said, “This medicine is


    quite sweet.”


    Those words without context left Alta stunned.


    If she remembered correctly, medicine was supposed to taste bitter, right?


    It seemed that this man was truly drunk and started to talk nonsense.


    “Rest well.”


    Alta casually dropped this sentence and couldn’t be bothered to pay any more attention to him. She


    turned around and walked away


    Donovan, who had been ying chess all this while, had been keeping an eye on their interactions.


    When he saw Alta walking away, he chuckled and said, “Good for nothing.”


    Jason heard it but didn’t retort. His thin lips curled up imperceptibly!


    Later, Cindy couldn’t hold up her spirits anymore and started feeling sleepy. She wanted to take a nap.


    Donovan had finished ying chess with Edward and got up to return home.


    Jason left together with them.


    As soon as they got into the car, he leaned against the seat and closed his eyes to rest. However, he


    was scolded by Donovan.


    “Don’t pretend. You’re pretending to be drunk now, and Alta can’t see it.”


    Jason slowly opened his eyes and his gaze was quite calm. There was no hint of drunkenness in his


    deep and cold eyes.


    Donovan confirmed his thoughts and looked at Jason with some disdain. He said, “Pretending to be


    drunk and deceiving her into feeding you medicine, aren’t you good at it? If you had realized it earlier,


    your wife wouldn’t have left!”


    “I was indeed drunk just now.”


    Jason said, his face neither blushing nor breathless.


    Donovan heard him still being stubborn. He snorted and said, “Alright then. After I go back, I’ll have


    someone gather information about the talented young men in the capital. Then, make a photo album


    for her to choose from!”


    Upon hearing this, Jason narrowed his eyes. He nced at Donovan and remained silent.


    Twenty minutester.


    He dropped off Donovan at the ancestral home and went directly to thepany.


    By three in the afternoon.


    Two figures appeared at the entrance of the Hill’s ancestral home.


    It was Eaton.


    He was apanied by a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, walking inside.


    At that moment, Donovan was sitting in the hall and listening to a musical drama. When he saw the


    visitors, he raised an eyebrow in confusion and asked, “Who is this person?”


    He looked somewhat unfamiliar.


    Eaton led the man to approach Donovan. He smiled and replied, “Well, it’s like this. Mr. Hill thinks you


    need someone to take care of your health, so he especially finds a fitness trainer for you.”


    He pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and continued, “This is Master Jeff. He’s a shadow


    boxing master. He used to be a martial arts champion and a national-level boxing artist in his youth. Mr.


    Hill means you could practice shadow boxing in your spare time to stay fit.”


    N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    Practice shadow boxing?


    Seeing Master Jeff in his shadow boxing suit, Donovan’s face was filled with confusion. He was


    bewildered for a while.


    Finally, he remembered what happened at noon. He couldn’t help but burst intoughter. He asked,


    “So, this is his way of retaliating against me, finding a blind date partner for Alta, right?”


    Eaton smiled and remained silent. He looked like “You can interpret it as you wish.”


    Donovan snorted and spoke in an annoyed tone, “Your owner, Jason, requires discipline! Do you think


    finding someone can stop me? You’re thinking too simple!”


    Then, he waved his hand in a shooting gesture. He continued, “Go, go, go back and ry the message


    to that brat. Tell him that even if he finds ten more masters like this, I will still collect photo albums for


    Alta! Let’s see how anxious he gets!”


    When these two sides shed, no one can afford to provoke them!


    Eaton naturally didn’t say much and immediately returned to thepany. He ryed Donovan’s


    words to Jason.


    After he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the office noticeably became tense.


    After pondering for a moment, Jason took out his phone and made a call.


    Soon, the call was connected.


    A voice full of age and curiosity came from the other side, “Why do you have time to call metely?”


    Jason’s tone was unusually gentle as he said, “Teacher, I have a favor to ask.”


    The other person immediatelyughed. He sounded a bit excited, like he found Jason’s plea for help


    amusing. “Rare! Do you even have a day when you need my help?”


    The person on the other end spoke concisely, “Alright, go ahead.”


    Seeing that he agreed, Jason spoke directly, “Donovan has been a bit out of sortstely. Your chess


    skills are superb, so I would like to ask you to visit the ancestral house every day… Of course, just to


    hang out with him, no need to y chess!”


    Eaton pricked up his ears and listened, feeling a bit sympathetic towards Donovan.


    As a chess enthusiast, Donovan was being arranged very well…


    Spring Vi.


    After Jason and the others left, the closed door upstairs finally opened.


    Otto and Nina walked out stealthily. They peeked their heads out at the staircase, looking downstairs


    cautiously.


    Alta found it amusing to watch and smiled. Her lips curved as she said. “Come down, they’re left.”


    Otto and Nina nodded and hurriedly rushed downstairs like they had been suffocating.


    Otto patted his chest. He was still trembling a little and eximed, “That’s scary! Why do daddy and


    great-grandpa suddenlye over like that?”


    Alta also nodded and agreed, “Yes.”


    She was quite scared when she saw those two people.


    Edward looked at them and spoke thoughtfully, “Alta, I think this situation can’t go on like this.”


    If they suddenly visited again and had to hide in such a hurry, it would be exposed sooner orter.


    “I think you should find an opportunity to exin everything to Jason.”


    Alta nodded, agreeing to some extent.


    Sneaking around like this was indeed not a long-term solution. She should find an opportunity to


    exin things clearly.


    However, she didn’t know how Jason would react when the time came, whether he would be


    reasonable or not…


    Watching this scene, Cindy spoke up at the right moment, “I think you can tell Donovan about this


    matter.”


    Alta felt a bit puzzled at the words and looked over.


    Cindy pondered for a moment and exined, “Today, Donovan misunderstood that you have two other


    children with someone else. But it seems that he doesn’t mind that.”


    “So, if we inform him about the existence of the children, he will stand on your side.”


    She paused for a moment. Her tone softened as she said, “To be honest, he has resented Jason in


    these years because of you! He’s also angry and regrets not stopping Jason from divorcing you. For


    the sake of the children’s future, we need allies. Donovan is a good candidate.”


    “Think about it. If this matter is exposed in the future, we have his support in the Hills, who dares to


    take the children away from you?”
