The meeting ended perfectly. At least for Jalen, it was. But for Steven, things were different.
Jalen glanced at Steven, who was sitting opposite him, and sneered in his heart. Then Jalen thought, he probably has not figured out how things turn out like this.
However, I don’t care. What does it have to do with me? None of my business.
Thinking of that, Jalen got up and prepared to leave. It was time to find Elaina and make everything clear.
Of course, before that, Jalen had to make an announcement first.
An announcement of breaking up with Rylie.
The meal between him and Rylie was indeed for them to fake a relationship. Jalen needed to make Steven let down his guard, and Rylie did not want to be forced by her parents to go on a blind date.
Therefore, the two of them hit it off and then announced the news that they had been together.
But now, Jalen no longer had to fear Steven, who was no longer the chairman of the Halton Group and couldn’t cause any trouble. In that case, Jalen knew it was time to end his relationship with Rylie, which was fake anyway.
“Why do you do this?” Seeing that Jalen was going to leave, Steven finally lost his cool and took the initiative to ask.
Steven did not understand. He was Jalen’s father, Steven being the chairman would only be good for Jalen..
Jalen found Steven’s words funny and looked down at Steven. “Why? You should ask yourself what you have done.”
“Do you still ha*e me?” Steven asked.
Jalen smiled, and his gaze became sharp. “You are not even worthy of my attention.”
Steven’s expression changed slightly. He stared at Jalen and pondered for a moment. Then Steven seemed to have thought of something and said, ‘Is it because of Elaina?”
Steven believed that Jalen still hated him. But Jalen didn’t have to do all those things unless it was because of Elaina.
The only possibility was that Jalen feared Steven would do harm to Elaina at any time, with his identity as the chairman and the power in his hands. So Jalen could not stand Steven and wanted to get rid of Steven.
Jalen did not deny it.
Steven laughed in anger. He stood up and stared Jalen in the eye. There was some hatred in Steven’s eyes. “I forced you to break up with her for your own good. What does that woman have to offer? How can she help you?”
“So you left with that woman because she could help you.” Jalen laughed instead of getting angry. He only. felt that Steven was pitiful.
Back then, Steven abandoned his family for a married woman. So Jalen found it rather amusing when Steven tried to blame Jalen for doing the same thing.
“You!” Steven was extremely angry. He raised his hand and wanted to slap Jalen.
Of course, Jalen would not stand there and wait for a slap. He grabbed Steven’s wrist and shook it off violently. “If you want to live a peaceful retired life, don’t let me see you ever again. Otherwise, don’t blame me for dealing with you.”
Jalen felt that he was already showing his mercy. As long as Steven did not appear in front of him, Jalen would not seek revenge on Steven.
After all, Steven was the one to blame for the death of Jalen’s mother. But Jalen still could not bear to k*ll Steven for his mother.
In that case, it would be best if they never met again.
“I did not expect your mother to…”
“S*ut up!”
Jalen became ruthless and punched Steven in the face. “You are not even qualified to mention her name!
“My mother died because of you and that bit*h. Don’t think that I will forget what you did after so many years.
“I won’t k*ll you because I promised my grandfather that I am not going to let him lose his son in his old age. So when he is still here, I won’t do anything to you. You better pray that Grandfather will live longer.” Then Jalen left without looking back.
Steven was knocked to the ground and looked at Jalen’s back as Jalen left. Steven’s eyes were cold, and no one knew what Steven was planning.
