Chapter 387
“Dad. I’ll go back first.”
Tim Grimm was having his coffee. When he heard that his son was leaving so soon, he looked
displeased. “It’s rare for you toe back. Stay for a few days before you leave!”
Jaydon Grimm said in a grave voice, “No, I still have to settle some matters in Greyport. After the
wedding. Joann and I wille back to stay for a while.”
Tim frowned slightly but he still consented. “Alright then!”
“Then I’m going” With that, Jaydon left the study.
Thereafter, the couple bade farewell to the elders one by one
After saying goodbye to everyone, Jaydon and Joanna left the Grimm family’s vi and prepared to
return to Greyport.
On the way back, Jaydon’s expression was clearly much more subdued, and he looked as if he was
very restless and uneasy.
“What’s wrong. Jay? Did something happen?” Joanna could not help asking again.
Jaydon came back to his senses and put his arm around Joanna’s shoulders. “Nothing’s wrong.”
The suspicion in Joanna’s eyes intensified. “Jay, no matter what happens, you must let me know.”
She was worried that Bruce Everett had caused trouble again.
Jaydon bit his dry upper lip andforted Joanna with a smile. “Indeed there’s a small matter!
However, you don’t have to worry. I can handle it.”
When she saw that he was unwilling to say more. Joanna tactfully shut up and did not continue asking.
By the time they returned to Greyport, it was already past 10 pm.
The car stopped at the entrance of the Ona ce neighborhood.
Jaydon looked at Joanna affectionately “Joann, let me send you to the door!”
“No need! It’s already sote. You should hurry back and rest.”
Jaydon did not insist anymore. “Alright then!”
“Goodbye”
“Good night!”
Jaydon kissed Joanna on the cheek before driving off to his home.
He had to settle the matter with Carmel Basil as soon as possible. It had not been easy for him and
Joanna to get to where they were today. He could not afford to let anything go wrong again.
The next day, Carmel arrived at Nephelene Manor early in the morning.
In the past, she often came here to spend the night, so she was familiar with the ce.
Jaydon had just woken up when the servant, Zena, came in to report to him. “Mr. Grimm, Miss Basil is
here.”
Jaydon frowned when he heard that. He had told her yesterday he would meet up with her but he did
not ask her toe to
his house.
To his dismay, she actually came to his house.
“Take her to the living room!”
“Sure!”
Jaydon hurriedly put on his clothes and went downstairs.
In the living room. Carmel was still dressed provocatively and looked alluring as usual.
She was wearing a spaghetti–strap dress and high heels. She had exquisite makeup on her face and
was wearing a strong perfume. She did not look like a pregnant woman at all.
“Why did youe to my house?*
“Mr. Grimm… I miss you so much!” Carmel pouted her tiny mouth and leaned close to Jaydon.
Jaydon pushed away her attempt to embrace him in annoyance and subconsciously stared at her
abdomen. “You’re not lying to me, are you? How are you pregnant when you look like that?”
When Carmel heard this, she opened her bag and took out a test report. “Let me show you the
hospital’s test report. It says it’s almost a month now.”
Jaydon took the pregnancy test report and took a look. It did show a pregnancy in the early stage.
That’s impossible. The child can’t be mine!”
Jaydon had always been very cautious about such things. He would always take safety precautions
whenever he did it!
When Carmel heard this, she pouted her red lips and said in an aggrieved manner, “Mr. Grimm, you
mustn’t wrong me! My body and mind belong to you alone!
“If you don’t believe me, wait for the child to be born and do a paternity test. If the child isn’t yours, I’m
willing to ept any punishment!”
When he saw Carmel’s confident look, Jaydon became even more furious.
“Did you tamper with the condom? Are you deliberately plotting against me?”
“Mr. Grimm, how can you say that? Condoms cannot 100% guard against pregnancy. This child is a gift
from the heavens to
us!”
“You’re spouting nonsense. You must have tampered with it. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have gotten
pregnant so easily.”
Jaydon was no fool. Although condoms were not 100% effective at preventing pregnancies, the
efficacy could reach 99%.

“Mr. Grimm, it’s useless to say anything now. I’m already pregnant. What do you think we should do
now?” Carmel looked at Jaydon with a pitiful expression.
There was a trace of hope in her heart whereby she fantasized that Jaydon would change his mind and
marry her for the sake of the child.
Obviously, this was just wishful thinking on her part!
Without a second thought, Jaydon replied icily, “Go and abort the child!”
Although she had expected this oue, Carmel’s heart still ached as if she had been pierced by a
needle when she heard Jaydon say this without hesitation. “No, this is our child.”
“Do you know that I’m getting married soon? You can’t keep this child.”
Carmel also decided to risk it all. “It doesn’t matter to me whether you get married or not. I only want
our child.”
“No!” Jaydon objected harshly.
When she saw that he was so determined, Carmel swallowed her pride. She could only make a
concession and continue to
be his lover.
As long as he agreed to let her keep the child, she was willing to ept this arrangement even if it
meant hers would be an illegitimate child.
“Mr. Grimm, why don’t… I give birth to this child? Don’t worry. I won’t affect your marriage. I just want a
child for both of
us…”
Carmel hugged Jaydon tightly from behind as she spoke.
Jaydon struggled for a while and pushed Carmel away viciously. “Get away from me!”
Carmel’s high heel twisted and she fell onto the sofa. “Argh! It hurts!”
“Name your price! How much do you want for the abortion?”
