Presiden's wild wife

Chapter 185 His Poor Childhood

Looking at their serious expression, Zach clenched his fists, adding, “As I know, he doesn’t get married because his wife, or to be more accurate, his fiancée was dead before their wedding.” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“What?”

“Later Kent was born. Isn’t it strange?” Zach couldn’t figure it out. Since he loved his fiancée so much and was willing to give up marriage for her, how could he have a baby with another woman? That just didn’t make sense.

Elena frowned and felt puzzled, too.

Logan asked, “So you mean that Edward Ford was set up having sex with another woman and then had a baby who was Kent? Is it the reason why the Fords didn’t accept Kent?”

“I didn’t say it.” Zach shrugged his shoulders, “I can’t tell now. I don’t have any evidence.”

Elena took a breath, “Then who is his mother?”

Now that Zach got the clue of his father, he might know something about his mother.

Zach raised his eyebrows, “Well, I have the clue about her. Do you want to know?”

“Don’t beat about the bush!”

“Easy! I am talking!” Zach wanted to make fun of Elena. Before Elena was angry, he started to talk, “His mother died many years ago. It’s said that, she killed herself, by jumping from the top of a building. Just in front of Kent.”

Hearing this shocking news, Elena couldn’t help trembling. How old was Kent? When his mother killed herself before him!

Zach wanted to talk more about that, but Logan stopped him, “Fine. Stop it. I want to know more about the paternity test Kent did in his hospital.”

“I don’t know…” Zach showed his disappointment, “They buttoned up their lips. And the head of the hospital did the test himself. So no one gets the chance to know about it…”

In a word, Zach couldn’t get the test result though he tried every mean. He tried to bribe all related people. And he had checked all the cameras. But he found out nothing at last.

Logan was unhappy about his answer, squinting at Zach, “Fine. What else? Something you have found?”

“Yes.” Zach nodded. “I got some clues. But I don’t know if I should pay all the attention to his adoptive father or the real one.”

One was abroad, the other never accepted Kent as his child.

Zach couldn’t find any relation between them, so it was hard for him to launch a new investigation.

Elena hesitated, and then gave him her advice, “I think you should focus on Kent. I am afraid looking into his fathers right now may just be a waste of time.”

If he worked on both sides at the same time, it would consume Zach more time and energy. So it would be a good idea to just focus on Kent for now.

Logan agreed on it, nodding, “Right. Just do as Elena said. We don’t have enough connections in G City. If we are not careful enough, we may be trapped by Kent.”

“Alright. Since you agree, I will fully focus on Kent right now.” He was breathing a sigh of relief.

Looking at his relieved expression, Elena smiled, “Actually you don’t want to investigate on his fathers, do you? You can tell us.”

“I don’t dare to tell!” Zach said with a wry look, “You know my weakness is Sophia. And she only listens to you. So no matter what you ask me to do, I have to accept it.”

“Are you blaming me?” Elena looked at him, pretending to complain.

Zach didn’t dare to argue with Elena, answering, “No, no. Never!”

“Oh?”

He thought Elena was so scary now. So he gave in at once, “Elena, come on. Don’t scare me! You know I am timid!”

Elena smiled, “Am I scary? Or I have a scary face?”

“Both…”

Elena curled her lips, “Just kidding. Forget it. By the way, I can’t do anything to change Sophia’s mind. If she doesn’t choose you at last, it’s not my responsibility.”

“I know. But…” Zach understood what she said.

Zach knew Sophia didn’t quit the job at once because of Logan. Logan offered her the job here. So, if he couldn’t satisfy Logan or Elena, Sophia might just quit it and left him at once. He knew the truth so well and didn’t complain at all. He just put on a smile and wanted to do his best.

Elena was looking at Zach for a while. Then she seemed to see him through, “Look at you. I did nothing to you. What are you afraid of?”

“No, no.” Zach said, “Thank you for doing nothing to me, Elena. I feel safe now.”

“Well, let’s go home.” Logan said.

“This way!” Zach said in a happy tone, as if he couldn’t wait to see them off.

Elena found it funny and couldn’t help smiling, “OK. Let’s go.”

Zach immediately said goodbye to them. When they left his house, he couldn’t help humming a joyful tune. His expression showed how happy he was now.

Elena turned around and told him in a serious tone, “If you really love Sophia, don’t make fun of her. Now she isn’t really mad at you. But if she can’t bear you anymore and leaves, you will regret it.”

Zach kept her advice in mind, but answered her jokingly, “Come on! I got you! You will help me, right?”

Elena gave him a sharp stare. If she could change Sophia’s mind, they would have been together now.

“Save it. I can’t help. It’s up to Sophia. And you should take action to win her affection.”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Zach nodded, “Please go home now. Look at Logan, he is so impatient. If you still talk to me, he will kill me!”

Logan heard him and stared at him. Zach complained, “Look at you, Logan! You are so mean. I just talked with Elena for a little while. And now you look so jealous!”

“Then stop your bullshit.” Logan said in a cold tone.

Zach didn’t stop talking, but yelling, “Oh, lord! Logan has changed! He doesn’t care about his friend at all! He only cares about his wife. I feel so hurt!”

Logan ignored his bullshit. He held Elena’s hand and left with her.
