Chapter 111
111 Who to me?
Maverick knew his son even though it doesn’t look like it because at this moment, Valen was so mad
that he was nning to have Jeslyn all to himself for three days straight. He understood that she was
his stepmother, but even so, a child of six needs more attention than a grown man, but why does his
father not know that? 1
To Valen, Jeslyn was not to me but his father. He believed that whenever Jeslyn and his father were
together, it was likely Maverick who called her over to ‘hurt’ her again.
How could the poor child be relieved when he knew that his father was leaving marks on Jeslyn?
He picked up Rex’s phone and called his father a few times but he wouldn’t pick up. “Is he hurting her
again?” Valen frowned.
“Who is hurting who?” Rex immediately asked.

“Mind your business, uncle.” Valen rolled his eyes.
“You called me uncle, yet you are rude and disrespectful. Jeslyn must hear this.” Rex threatened.
Valen stayed silent without saying anything else.
At the hotel, Maverick took Jeslyn to the shower and returned to the room.
At the hospital…
Madam Chen could be seen lying on a hospital bed with a life support system. Mr. Wales, Christine,
and Chi Chi were there staring at the woman with bloodshot eyes. Nobody said anything. Each of them
with their own thoughts.
“Christine, don’t you have a shot tonight? Take Chi Chi home and return to thepany. I’ll be here to
look after your mother.” Mr. Wales suggested.
“I’ll inform sister to see if she can find something to restore the CCTV footage. I don’t believe that this
was a coincidence.” Christine said.
Mr. Wales looked at his elegantly dressed daughter and frowned. “Are you saying I cannot find the
person behind this? Don’t worry about anything. My people are on it… one more thing, Young Master
Ray was there ording to the report from the guards. You can stop by his office and ask him about
what he knows. He might have seen someone or probably, the car’s te.”
“Ok,” Christine rolled her eyes and ordered her assistant to pick up Chi Chi and left the hospital.
After they left, Mr. Wales sat beside his wife on her bed and held her hand while ying with her
fingers.
“Be, what happened to you? How did you suddenly be like this? I thought you were fine when
you left the house?…you never told me…told me you would be getting into an ident.” Mr. Wales’
eyes turned watery. 1
Right now he couldn’t think straight. Seeing his beloved wife lying almost lifeless on the bed gave him
anxiety. Although the doctor said she would be fine, he still couldn’t rx his heart.
12:35
Mr. Wales started to reminisce about how he met his wife.
At that time, they were in the university. Be was very beautiful, innocent, and intelligent. She was
every guy’s dream in the department. He couldn’t approach her because he was shy until the day it
rained cats and dogs. It so happened that they took shelter under the same shade so from there on
they became friends and finally got married.
Be wanted a good life, the type he couldn’t afford and so when the opportunity presented itself, Be
advised him to marry Alice. The n went as they wanted, however, Be became jealous and wanted
the rtionship between him and Alice toe to an end.
What she wanted came through and after Alice died, they got married again but a dent was created in
the rtionship. He tried all he could to fix it but all his effort went down the drain or should he say he
didn’t try his best? Whatever it was, he knew neither of them was innocent of how their marriage
turned.
Even though it happened that way, Mr. Wales never saw anything wrong in what he did; he still doesn’t
feel remorseful for what he did to Jeslyn and her mother. To Mr. Wales, he was only taking what he was
given by the gods.
“I promise, I’ll find whoever did this to you and make them pay!”
At night, Jeslyn was seen resting her head on Maverick’sp while thinking of her revenge. “Maverick,
what should I do to ruin those people? I don’t want them dead.”
Maverick didn’t think before he said: “cheating.” He didn’t even raise his head from the book he had in
his hands.
“Huh?” Jeslyn turned her head to look at this face.
“Their family seems to be peaceful and the man seems to be loyal. Throw in a demonicdy,” He
suggested.
“Mr. Wales doesn’t seem to like women. He is loyal to that vixen which was why he could treat my
mother like that even though she was way prettier, ssier, and richer than that wh*re.” Jeslyn’s face
turned viinous. Thinking of that so-called father of hers makes her want to stab him in the heart.
“When a loyal man cheats, it leaves a stronger impact,” Maverick exined.
Jeslyn nodded, that’s right. She looked at him and subconsciously asked: “Do all men cheat?”
“No,” he replied while turning a page.
“But they are…ehm…all men are…wild creatures, right?” Jeslyn wasn’t sure if he would reply. Yeah,
her question was stu pid, but only she understood.
“Men are wild by nature. But some are weak due to circumstances…I’m sure you know where I
belong.” In thetter part, Maverick shifted his gaze from the book and looked at her pretty face.
“Oh,” Jeslyn blushed. Of course, she knew. But then…she’s not sure.
“Should I get a girl from the club?” Jeslyn returned to the topic while shifting her gaze everywhere in
the room.
“He won’t fall… Get a wild innocent girl.” Maverick returned to reading his book.
“You mean, innocent in appearance but wild in bed?”
“Hmm.”
“Where do I find one?”
“His secretary.”
“You mean she likes him?”
“Hmm.”
Jeslyn giggled. “Perfect. History is about to repeat itself. Just that the vixen is at the hospital, she won’t
be seeing it anytime soon.”
“She could.”
“How?” Jeslyn asked. However, Maverick only looked at her face and said nothing before he continued
reading.
