Chapter 1741 When We First Met
Chapter 1741 When We First Met
"I've no jurisdiction over this issue. I don't care whether there's a need for law enforcement toward the
entertainment industry. It's a cycle, and both parties are willing to do it.
If anyone is unaware of my way of handling things, feel free to visit Waverly Village and ask around.
Right or wrong has never been my concern. Morality is.
Although certain people have indeed done something that they shouldn't have, but there was a chance
for the victim to refuse. If you quit starring in this film, I believe that you wouldn't have to sleep with an
ugly and sinful man.
As we all know, when a woman feels inclined to sleep with a man, it's actually a pleasurable activity.
However, for money and fame, some people are willing to sleep with strange and hideous men. I don't
think that there should be someone to uphold justice for such people.
Since ancient times, there has not been a shortage of chaste women. Everyone can go and check it
out.
As I always say, it takes two to tango.
It's just like I have a cake and if you covet it, I can give it to you under the condition that you offer me
something in return. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
I'm not trying to justify the odious practices. It's just that such practices are brought upon some people
by themselves.
Fair and above board don't necessarily mean to be leading to failure. If you choose to take a shortcut, it
suggests that you've stooped to dissipation. That is to say, you shouldn't put the blame on others.
Now, you want to point fingers at other people. Is it because the film failed to make you famous? Or is it
because you think that it's disgusting to have paid with your own bodies?
If it's the latter, I can only say that while sickening others, you've also made yourself disgusting.
In this world, living isn't only about money. If you don't understand the meaning of life, don't whine
about how unfair this world is.
The world is impartial, but you don't know how to cherish it!"
...
His speech was met with a round of thunderous applause at the wedding. Just when Jacky was about
to leave the stage, someone continued to ask, "Mr. Scott, is it true that you have two illegitimate
children?"
Jacky stopped and walked back. He glanced at his two sons and Deanna, who were sitting at one side.
Jacky replied, "I have sons, but they aren't illegitimate children. Please treat this term seriously. The so-
called 'illegitimate children' can't be exposed to the public and can only be secretly raised outside. As
for my children, they have always been living an unconcealed life.
Please allow me to present the truth to you, so as not to let others misunderstand my two children and
my fiancée."
Jacky looked at his sons and waved his hand, motioning for them to come over. They walked up to the
stage while the people below couldn't stop taking photos of them.
Jacky raised his hands and patted his sons, who were beside him. "Say hello to everybody."
The two children immediately said, "Hello everyone. My name is Cedric Scott."
"Hi, everyone. I'm Heitor Scott."
...
It was very quiet below all of a sudden. Jacky said, "Let me introduce my fiancée.
A fiancée is the wife-to-be of a man. Even though she hasn't been recognized legally as my wife, she's
my only one. To me, there's no difference whether she is my fiancée or my wife.
She is Rhys Atkinson's daughter, a man of great renown in this city. People have been regarding him
differently. I don't know much. The only thing I know is that he's a kind father and a man who loves his
family.
As a man, if he doesn't love his family, he wouldn't have been reliable. In that case, even if he may look
trustworthy, it will be just an illusion.
I met my wife, Deanna Atkinson, by chance. She had been abducted by kidnappers because she was
too beautiful. As it happened, I coincidentally passed by the scene. That was how we met.
Before Waverly Village and Capital City united, I kept her in the village. We grew feelings for each other
after staying together for a long time.
Following that, she had my children.
However, in the face of the materialistic society, I was not favored and my wife's family felt disinclined
to accept me.
Like all the other fiancés who are being looked down on, I did not give up.
As for my children, their birth made me a father. I have never resisted their existence or concealed it.
They have been living under this sunny world. There's no need to cover up anything. They shouldn't be
associated with the term 'illegitimate children'. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
In your eyes, if the marriage is based on a piece of paper, I admit that my marriage lacks that. But if
you think that a marriage is based on love, then I can tell you that my marriage is perfect."
Jacky patted his two children, who then raced down to look for Deanna. Jacky came down from the
stage and walked over to sit beside Jepherson, who turned around and slightly lowered his head. If it
had not been for Jacky's words, he wouldn't have understood that loving a person had nothing to do
with marriage, which was just a formality.
Jepherson felt the urge to laugh at himself. His pedantry had to be accounted for losing Raeleigh. He
had to travel such a long distance if he wanted to see her. He had to take a flight to see her.
"What's wrong?" Jacky asked after sitting down. Jepherson answered softly, "I'm envious of you."
Jacky glanced at him. "You've been so busy recently."
"I've had to take care of more than one thing simultaneously."
Jepherson drank some water. He turned and his gaze fell on Zorion and his wife who were sitting
down.
He could only envy them.
...
At night, Raeleigh received a call from Jepherson, asking why she didn't come back to attend the
wedding.
Raeleigh replied, "It's a long distance. By the time I reach there, the wedding would have been over. I
would have nothing to do even if I attended it."
"Raeleigh, you really don't miss me at all?"
...
Raeleigh didn't answer. Jepherson took off his clothes and went to lie down. He said, "But I miss you."
...
Jepherson fell asleep while he was on the phone with Raeleigh. Raeleigh didn't say anything more.
However, she didn't hang up immediately even after Jepherson had fallen asleep on the other end of
the phone.
When Raeleigh went to the company the next day, Jepherson made another call to her.
"I will be very busy these days. I may not be able to go there."
Raeleigh just replied that she got it before hanging up.
It had been said that distance made the hearts grow fonder, but sometimes, distance was a source of
estrangement.
Raeleigh got out of the car and walked toward the company. Meanwhile, a car was parked behind her.
When Raeleigh turned around to have a look, the person had already gotten out of the car.
Mr. Fifth came from the car and stopped in front of her.
"Are you surprised to see me?"
Raeleigh did not answer, but her assistant had come over. Seeing Raeleigh, she said at once, "Miss
Anson..."
"I got it."
The assistant's words stuck in her throat whereas Mr. Fifth said, "Please pardon my concealment. I
didn't inform you beforehand because I was afraid that you might misunderstand me."
Raeleigh fixed her eyes on him momentarily. "Your last name is Doyle?"
"Yes, I'm Crevor Doyle. Nice to meet you."
Crevor politely stretched out his hand to shake hands with Raeleigh, but she did not stretch out her
hand.
"I'm sorry that today's negotiation has to end here. I think my opponent in this negotiation is a
representative of Helgen Group, not your Doyle family."
"Helgen Group is a sales company under me."
"Even so, I won't cooperate with you, bye."
Raeleigh turned around and headed for the company. Crevor called out to her, "If you renege the
contract unilaterally..."
"Fifty million dollars, I'm aware of it. I will transfer this exact amount to Helgen Group's account later."
Raeleigh paused and then continued walking forward without hesitation.
