Chapter 288
Chapter 288
Jack abruptly took a step to the side, which put even more distance between him and Naomi. ‘What happened?’ The reporters and guests all wondered. ‘The two had a quarrel?!
Naomi’s heart welled up with a loss. ‘In front of all these people, Mister Daddy did it on purpose.’
But, after all, she was the one who got him angry. She wouldn’t mind it.
Naomi hung her head down and tried to keep her eyes from reddening.
At that moment, Jack glanced at Naomi from the corner of his eye, and from his perspective, he only saw Naomi looking nonchalant.
Immediately, Jack withdrew his gaze. His eyes became more detached and indifferent.
“Mr. Hough and Miss Green, please come to the stage!” As soon as the host called, Naomi raised her head and walked on stage first, and she pulled out the chair for Jack.
“Mister Daddy, please sit down!”
She worked out a smile at Jack and made a gesture of invitation.
However…
Jack didn’t even glance at her. He walked right past her to the other side of the table. Then he pulled out the chair himself and sat down.
Naomi’s smile froze on her face. She gripped the back of the chair.
One second, two seconds… Everyone in the hall could sense something was wrong.
The crowd began to whisper. No one noticed a man in a black suit with a black hat and mask slipped in through the entrance and was quietly approaching the stage.
“Mr. Hough and Miss Green, please sign your names!” The host announced before the atmosphere had completely cooled down.
“Mister Daddy, here’s the pen.”
Naomi didn’t give up. She held the pen up to Jack, She was determined not to put her hand down until Jack took it.
But then Jack turned his head abruptly to Anna, who was standing on the side of the stage.
“Pen.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Here it is!”
Anna involuntarily curled her lips and immediately trotted to bring the pen to Jack. When she handed Jack the pen, her nail “accidentally” scratched Jack’s palm slightly.
Immediately, Jack’s eyes welled up with disgust. He wanted to throw the pen away.
But he caught a glimpse of Naomi out of the corner of his eye, so he held back his disgust, took the pen, and quickly signed his name.
With that, he quickly tossed the pen on the table!
Anna was thrilled to see that Jack showed no disgust.
Naomi was sitting across from them. She saw everything. Her hand, held in the air, finally came down.
It seemed Jack would not forgive her…
She made a bitter smile with a touch of self-deprecation. She then was about to sign her name.
Just at the moment Naomi was about to sign on the paper, an eerie voice rang out through the hall. “Wait a minute! She’s a liar. How can she sign the contract on behalf of Green Corp?”
Naomi immediately looked up in the direction of the voice. Even though the man’s face was entirely covered up, she recognized him at a glance.
It was her father, Scott!
“Uncle Zach!” Naomi immediately winked at Zach.
And Zach quickly caught Scott with several men. They removed his hat and mask and revealed Scott’s face.
“Scott?”
“Isn’t he in jail? Why is he here?” As the crowd wondered, Zach shouted, “You bastard! How dare you break out of jail and make trouble here? I’m taking you to the police right now!”
Zach and his men then tried to take Scott out of the hall.
However, Scott didn’t panic at all. He gave a calm, somber smile.
“You want to put me in jail? I bet you can’t!”
After that, all the screens in the hall changed and displayed a paternity test report.
In the column of identification results, the conclusion was written in a bold and enlarged manner, “As identified, Scott and Naomi are not father and daughter.”
Immediately, everyone was shocked!
