Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1189 - 477: I’ll To Make It Short

Joshua didn't want to know what had happened in the past. If it weren't for the fact that Hazel was directly involved in this incident, he didn't even want to step into the Sloane family.

"Grandpa Sloane, please rest assured," Joshua's face was indifferent and aloof. "Just like you who don't want to have anything to do with me, I don't want to have anything to do with the Sloane family, either. I'm here today just to confirm something."

Grandpa Sloane felt very complicated. He was in a daze as he looked at Joshua. His heart was colic somehow. It turned out his deliberate alienation had made Joshua misunderstand this point?

"Actually, I am not..."

Grandpa Sloane was interrupted by Joshua before he could explain.

"The man who gave sperm to me is Ted King?" Joshua asked in a deep voice.

Grandpa Sloane's face changed slightly, and he looked at him in surprise. "How, how do you know that?"

Joshua's face darkened a little as there was a hint of mockery in his eyes. "So it's true."

From the beginning, he had had this conjecture. But he didn't expect that his father would really be Ted King. Joshua felt only ironic.

Ted King was no one else but Simon King's father, the real owner of the organization. More than 20 years ago, the organization had a great influence in Country Z. Both the illegal and legal forces were scared to hear it.

But after being suppressed, the organization's strength was sapped, and it was almost uprooted. It was at this time that Ted King took over his father's position. He made a prompt, resolute decision, gave up Country Z's market, and went abroad to expand the territory. Even within a few years, the whole organization spread all over the world, even more influential than before.

It turned out that he and Simon King were brothers. No wonder Simon was so surprised when he first met him. Simon should be surprised at his appearance. No wonder Simon had been pestering Hazel. It turned out that Simon had never aimed at her but at him.

No wonder the kidnapper mistook him for Simon when he saw Joshua last night. He didn't unveil Simon's mask for confirmation, but he was sure he and Simon looked very similar.

All this made sense now...

"Did he come to you?" Grandpa Sloane was so worried that he blurted out, "Joshua, he's not a good man. Please don't listen to him! I deliberately alienated you because I didn't want him to find your existence!"

"What?" Joshua was slightly shocked in the heart. He looked at Grandpa Sloane in surprise. It turned out... the Sloane family wanted him?

"I didn't want to tell you the truth before because I was afraid that I would get you into trouble... But now that he has found you, I'm not going to hide anything from you." Grandpa Sloane said in a deep voice, "The story is a bit long. I'll try to make it short."

Joshua hesitated a little before he finally decided to listen to it.

He was not interested in the Sloane family, but he would not deprive Grandpa Sloane of the opportunity to defend himself.

Grandpa Sloane recalled for a while and then said with complicated emotions, "That was about thirty years ago. Back then, when I mistakenly believed one of my distant nephews, who even robbed me of the whole Sloane family. He framed me and put your uncle and me in prison. At that time, your grandmother was seriously ill, and he also forced your mother and your aunt to be his mistresses. Our family almost came to a dead end.

However, your mother suddenly solved all these problems. She saved your uncle and me, took the Sloane family back, and got enough money in time to cure your grandmother.

I have been immersed in the joy of the Sloane family's return, so I didn't really think much about why your mother, a girl who was so weak, would be able to solve such a problem. After all, your uncle and I had been both helpless and had to wait for our family to be ruined before.

But I didn't know until later how much Stacy had sacrificed for the family. It turned out that in her most desperate time, she went to Ted King and became his secret lover.

When I knew about it, I did not understand her and even directly drove her out of the house and cut ties with her. This is probably the most regretful thing I've ever done in my life. If it weren't because of the Sloane family, how could Stacy do that...

Later, although I was a little regretful, I could not pocket my pride to make up with her. But your uncle has always been very close to her. I learned from him that Ted King was good to Stacy, and she was the only woman around him. Your uncle even got Ted King's promise that he would marry Stacy directly.

Our relationship eased slightly, but when I heard that she was pregnant before marriage and gave birth to you... I was so angry that I ordered your uncle to cut ties with her. But I never expected… that before long, you and your mother were in trouble!

Ted King was totally hypocritical to your mother. After your mother gave birth to you, he took you away directly and kicked her out! What he did was just to get a child from beginning to end!

I was stupid. Although I knew Stacy was in a difficult situation, I forbade the Sloane family from offering her any help. Under such circumstances, Stacy came to Ted King several times but was driven out.

Later, she tried to steal you out, but Ted King sent someone to snatch you directly. In the course of the snatch, a car exploded. When we got there, we saw only the fragments of a baby's body and your mother, who had been seriously injured.

I secretly took Stacy back and had her treated quietly until I pulled her back from the jaws of death. But at that time, she had been hit hard and totally could not recognize anyone.

At that time, Country Z was working hard to wipe out the organization. Ted King didn't have time to investigate whether your mother was dead or not. Later, even when we learned that the organization had withdrawn from Country Z, we dared not take it lightly. Your mother uses your aunt's identity, so she can quietly stay in the nursing room.

This… is the truth you want. Joshua, I did want to reunite with you, but I knew how much Ted King values descent and would never allow his children to leave him. I didn't reunite with you because I didn't want to disturb your life. If he comes to you, I hope he won't deceive you."

"He didn't come to me," Joshua said gravely, "but he came to Hazel."

"How, how could that be possible?!" Grandpa Sloane looked at him in surprise. He had a good impression of Hazel. This little girl who cared for Joshua so much had already won his approval. "What happened? Even if he found you, he shouldn't have come to Hazel?
