Chapter 8 Nephew's Ex-girlfriend

• After Jayden and Carol eloped this morning, they went their separate ways. Jayden was surprised to run into Carol at Hensea Group.
• Even more surprising for Jayden was the revelation that Carol and David used to date!
• Feeling the tense atmosphere in the car, Hugo sat in the driver's seat, holding his breath.
• However, he mustered the courage to ask, "Sir, I believe that woman over there is Julia. Isn't she William's wife? How did Miss Willick end up with her?"
• Jayden narrowed his eyes, emitting a silent and intense gaze.
• In a deep voice, he said, "Conduct an investigation about Carol and David."
• Jayden trusted Bianca so much that he didn't feel the need to perform a background check on Carol. He had assumed that Carol was just like Bianca, a wealthy heiress. Jayden didn't expect a surprise to be waiting for him.
• Carol turned out to be his nephew's ex-girlfriend!
• Jayden had heard of David's affairs when he joined Hensea Group, although he had yet to meet David.
• David's scandalous reputation and messy personal life involved many female stars and models.
• Before going on a business trip, Hugo informed Jayden that a pregnant woman had come to find David. David had given her money and sent her away.
• Now, let's consider this...
• Bianca mentioned that Carol had recently broken up with her boyfriend. What a coincidence.
• Did they really think I was foolish?
• Jayden's face turned serious, and he seemed even colder.
• Hugo's investigation results came in, and Jayden checked them on his phone with a cold expression.
• The first line that caught his attention was that Carol and David had been in a relationship for three years...
• It turns out that her ex-boyfriend was David!
• Jayden took a deep breath and rubbed his temples.
• Jayden was sure he couldn't break free from his grandfather's control due to Carol's background and questionable past, making it seem that this absurd marriage was about to end.
• "Sir, Mrs. Thomas has expressed a desire to meet with you multiple times. Should I arrange a meeting with her?" Hugo asked.
• Jayden waved his hand and said, "No need, let's go."
• The Rolls-Royce entered Hensea Group's underground lot discreetly and unnoticed by Julia and Selly.
• "Mom, the wedding planner sent the proposal this afternoon. Would you like to review it together?" Selly asked.
• "Great! I'd be happy to give you some suggestions." Julia suddenly remembered and asked, "When should we officially meet your father and have a meal together? Both you and David are engaged."
• Selly appeared surprised at first, then quickly regained her composure.
• Julia looked down on the average backgrounds of Willick and Carol.
• Selly's mother worked as a maid for the Willick family in Dystron. She was familiar with the affairs of the Willicks. She had heard that the head of the family, Bob, had a daughter.
• When Selly's mother began working as a servant, she discovered that the daughter she had heard about had already left. Apparently, the daughter had a disagreement with Willick and ran away. Selly's mother never had the chance to meet her.
• There was no information about her in the upper-class circle, so Selly pretended to be the rumored Miss Willick.
• Later, things went very smoothly. Julia was delighted with Selly and changed her attitude towards her. Selly also successfully got engaged to David.
• Selly glanced down at her tiny belly.
• She had no choice but to depend on her pregnancy to secure her position.
• Selly snapped back to reality and smiled gently. "Mom, my father's recent charity work has kept him busy. Let's schedule a meeting when he's available."
• Julia's brow furrowed slightly.
• Julia received several photos from Selly, including many pictures of Willick and Selly's picture with Bob. Furthermore, Julia recently learned about Bob's involvement in charity work. This made Julia feel reassured.
• Julia let out a sigh of relief and showed understanding by nodding. "I completely understand. We can wait until your father's schedule clears up to meet. Take your time."
