Trading My Ex for His Uncle

Chapter 1095



"If I don't take him with me, should I just watch him fend for himself?" Jane defended.

Ruth sighed. Wilhelm was her grandson, and she naturally wanted what was best for him. But that shouldn't come at the cost of sacrificing her daughter's happiness for the rest of her life.

"I'm not saying that, but if you want to take him abroad, I absolutely disagree. If it's unavoidable, then leave him here. Your father and I will take care of him," she

said.

Jane immediately refused. "No, I've already arranged for his travel documents. We're flying out together tomorrow morning. I won't leave him here."

Once Pedro and Theo found out she had sold the shares of the Wilkie Group to Damon, they would be furious.

By the time that happened, she wouldn't be in the country, and Wilhelm would just become the target of their anger.

As for her parents, they were Pedro's son and daughter-in-law. He wouldn't mistreat them, and Theo wouldn't dare to, either.

Ruth's anger flared. "Why don't you ever listen? I'm doing this for your own good!"

"Mom, I can make my own decisions. Besides, Gabriel left a lot of money for Wilhelm. He won't be a burden to me," Jane said, her tone softening in an attempt to soothe her mother.

Mentioning Gabriel only made Ruth angrier. If it weren't for him, her daughter wouldn't have ended up in this situation. But now, it was too late to change anything.

"Since you insist on taking him with you, I can't stop you. But you'd better think this through. In the end, it'll be you who suffers," she warned.

Jane's patience began to wane. "Mom, don't worry. Even if things get tough, I won't come to you complaining."

"It's not that I'm worried you'll complain! I'm worried you'll regret this in the future!" Ruth exclaimed in exasperation.

"We'll deal with the future when it comes. I don't want to think about it right now," Jane replied firmly.

Just as they were speaking, Andrew Wilkie emerged from the study.

Seeing their grim expressions, he frowned. What's going on? Our daughter finally comes back, and now you're saying something to upset her? Why do both of you look so distressed?" noveldrama

Ruth turned her head away coldly, refusing to speak.

Jane looked up at her father. "It's nothing, Dad. I just wanted to let you know that I've booked a flight for tomorrow morning. I'm going abroad."

Andrew's expression changed. "Why the rush?"

Jane opened her mouth to respond when the sound of hurried footsteps came from the door.

Everyone turned to see Pedro and Theo walking in, their faces dark with anger.

Andrew looked startled. "Dad, what brings you here?"

Pedro rarely visited unannounced. If something urgent came up, he would usually summon them to his place instead.

Theo sneered. "You should ask your dear daughter!"

He shot a sharp glare at Jane. "Jane, you actually sold the Wilkie Group's shares

to Damon. You must be tired of living!"

Jane hadn't expected them to find out so quickly. Her expression darkened.

Andrew and Ruth stared at her, stunned.

"Jane, what does Theo mean? Is there some kind of misunderstanding?" Andrew asked, his voice laced with disbelief.

Jane couldn't have sold the shares to Damon!

Although the Wilkie Group was

collaborating with Prospectus Technology, they were still competitors. Damon wouldn't be content with just holding a small stake in the Wilkie Group.

"Misunderstanding?" Theo's laugh was cold. "Ask her yourselves if it's a misunderstanding!"
