Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison

Chapter 122 Robert’s Father

The person behind the door was Jennifer. After being humiliated by Robert, she ran out of the Murphy’s

in tears.

Jennifer didn’t want to go home, because she was afraid that she would be scolded by her parents for

losing face in public.

So, Jennifer went to the nearest hotel to try to forget her sorrow with drinks.

But drinks could not help. Jennifer was drunk in the hotel room after she drank a lot.

When she woke up, she went out for buying more drinks.

But soon after she went out of her room, she found that Jason was in the hotel.

Jason was Robert’s good friend. With curiosity, Jennifer followed Jason secretly.

Jennifer found that Jason forgot to close the door after he came into a room. She quietly stood at the

door and eavesdropped on the conversation from the room.

Jennifer wanted to hear about Robert, but she felt shocked when she heard Jason and Selena’s painful

conversation.

Somehow at this moment, Jennifer had an evil idea.

She could neither let go of Robert nor watch him being happy.

She had loved Robert for more than ten years. She had been obsessed with Robert too much. Now

that she could not have him, she would manage to destroy him.

Thinking of this, Jennifer turned around immediately and drove to the Murphy’s.

The Murphy family had been through a messy day and was still in a mess. Jennifer quietly walked into

the Murphy’s and asked a servant.

“Where is Jasper’s room?”

The servant was confused. But this was Miss Johnson, the servant pointed to a room upstairs.

“That is Mr. Holland’s room.”

Jennifer nodded and smiled.

Then she asked the servant to open Jasper’s door and walked into the room.

Jasper was still lying on the bed unconsciously. Jennifer smiled.

She took off all her clothes. Then she lay on the bed and held Jasper.

Jasper didn’t wake up, but his body reacted.

Jennifer felt she got mad.

But she wanted a pregnancy.

Now that she could not marry Robert, she wanted to be his friend’s woman. When things happened

today passed, his parents must force him to marry her.

Jennifer believed that Jasper could not get rid of it.

Maisie just arrived home and a group of people gathered around her immediately.

“What happened to Robert? Who is against our Simpson family?”

One of Robert’s grandfathers asked on his crutch. He was the oldest one with the highest seniority in

the Simpson family and the cousin of Robert’s grandfather.

“We haven’t found out who kidnapped Robert.”

Maisie explained to the elder politely. He had a good temperament and stayed out of the Simpson’s

business.

“Maisie, is there still no news now? Where is Ivan? Didn’t he go to the party?”

Ivan’s mother, Joanna Wallace asked.

Hearing Joanna asked about Ivan, Maisie thought of that she couldn’t get through Ivan. She was a bit

unhappy. Maisie answered with indifference.

“Ivan left at the middle of the party. I heard that he was arguing with a person and Robert asked him to

leave ahead of time. I don’t know where he is. I tried to call him several times, but he didn’t answer my

phone.”

Joanna got worried at hearing Maisie’s words.

“Is there something wrong with Ivan, too?”

The Simpson family thought there must be someone who went against them. So naturally, Joanna was

afraid that Ivan would be another victim.

Ivan’s father, Marcel Simpson also began to look worried.

“My dear, don’t be afraid now. Let’s try to call Ivan again.”

They were comforting each other. But Maisie didn’t want to see them.

Other people of the Simpson family were whispering. Robert’s uncle, Alex Simpson walked to Maisie

and asked.

“Now we are trying our best to find Robert. He was missing from the Murphy’s. The news had gone

round, and the stock must go down tomorrow. Apart from finding Robert, we must choose a person to

run the company.”

Maisie cast a cold look at Alex as he said these words.

“What do you mean, Alex?

Alex pretended to be worried and explained.

“Maisie, it’s urgent. Of course, we have to find Robert back. But we could not ignore the company. If

other families join together and seek chances to go against us at this time, if each of them attacks our

family, we would be in danger. We have to assure the investors. So, we should let them know that

Robert is missing and another person from our family will be in charge of the company.”

Alex’s words made sense and other people nodded.

The old Mr. Simpson who talked to Maisie just now went over.

“Maisie, it’s not the time to be willful. When Robert comes back, he still has the position. He has made

a great success these years and we all know it. But now we couldn’t let other families take the chance

to attack us. You have to make a choice.”

Other people all nodded. Maisie looked at Ivan’s father, Marcel.

“Marcel, could you take over the company? Robert is missing. And now only you can take his role.”

Marcel wanted to say yes, but Alex interrupted.

“Maisie, I wouldn’t say I’m not agreed on your decision. But these years, Marcel has made five

companies go bankrupt and been out of the business of our family. If you let Marcel replace Robert, the

staff could not be convinced.”

Marcel looked ashamed instantly. He was indeed not good at business.

He had given up since he failed to manage the Simpson’s business. Now he spent time travelling

around the world with his wife and became an idler. He only got a small cut of profits every year.

Fortunately, his son became a world-renowned doctor. Otherwise, he would have been the

laughingstock of the family.

“Not me, Maisie. I’m not good at business.”

Marcel was willing to quit. Maisie glared at Alex.

Maisie could not replace Robert with others except for Marcel. They were ambitious. No one knew what

would happen when Robert came back.

But Marcel’s giving up made her angry and even broke her heart.

She could not force Marcel to take place of Robert now, because others all looked disapproval.

“Alex, tell me what we should do now?”

Maisie asked Alex. She knew his ambition. He was trying to take Robert’s place.

Alex had been ambitious, and his business had gone well all these years.

If it were not Robert who was in a higher place, Alex would have taken charge of the Simpson family,

and she would have yielded to him early. She was proud of her son who brought credit for her the

most.

“Maisie, I know what you’re worried about. Robert is my cousin. Now the company is in an emergency.

I’ll take Robert’s place to run the company. Don’t worry. People in the company all knew about my NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

ability and they will believe me. If the investors know it is me to take over the company, they will feel

relieved. And there won’t be any problem with our stock.”

Others agreed with Alex. Maisie gritted her teeth out of anger.

Alex added.

“Maisie, you are the honorary director, and I just take Robert’s place as a CEO to run the company.

Don’t worry, when Robert comes back, I will return the place to him.”

It sounded reasonable. But no one could tell whether Alex would return the place at that time.

It was like when you lent your house to someone and you could not ask him to leave easily. It was a

hard decision. Maisie knew it well.

But the Simpson family got a lot of enemies. If she did not let Alex run the company, Simpson’s

business would likely be in trouble.

Others all agreed because Alex was indeed capable. Maisie could do nothing but nod with a long face.

“In that case, I will announce on media to let everyone know you are going to take Robert’s place as

the CEO.”

Alex smiled with satisfaction when he heard Maisie’s promise.

“I know you are a wise person. I will take care of the company. Don’t worry, Maisie. As for Robert, we

will work together to get him back. He will be fine.”

Alex made it sound so easy. Maisie could not help putting on a sullen look.

The old Mr. Simpson said.

“Maisie, I’m over seventy. I shouldn’t say this. But Robert’s disappearance is a serious matter. I have to

remind you. What about giving a call to Robert’s father? I heard that he has been powerful these years.

Maybe he can find Robert.”

When he talked about Robert’s father, everyone’s face changed.

Maisie roared with indifference.

“He is not our family anymore and he doesn’t want his son and daughter. Why should I ask him for

help? Aren’t we powerful enough to find Robert?”

No one dared to speak, because they knew Maisie was enraged.

The old Mr. Simpson sighed and didn’t say anything.

Then people from the Simpson family left one after another.

Marcel and Joanna apologized to Maisie.

“I just got through Ivan. He was drunk in the bar last night. It was a staff who picked up the phone. Ivan

is still drunk in the bar. Maisie, I’m really sorry.”

Maisie was in a furry. It was not just because Alex was going to take Robert’s place, but more because

the old man brought up Robert’s father, who she did not want to remember over the past decade or so.

His name mentioned by others slowly brought out Maisie’s long-buried memories, which put her in a

rage.

As for Ivan, Maisie did not care about him at all. Her mind was full of memories of Robert’s father.

Maisie nodded at Joanna.

“Now that you know where he is, just go and ask him to come back soon. His brother is missing. Does

he just want to stay drunk?”

Marcel and Joanna smirked. They nodded hurriedly and left.

Everyone had left except for Alex. He walked to Maisie.

“Maisie, why are you being so angry? It’s been more than ten years. Can’t you get over him? He

abandoned you. But you are the honorary director, and your son is the CEO. The whole Simpson family

is yours. Why you still have him in your heart?”

Maisie warned Marcel.

“Shut up. It’s none of your business. Just piss off!”

Marcel chuckled.

“Maisie. You haven’t changed for so many years.”

Marcel turned around and left.

Maisie stood still with a sullen look.

As for Jasper, he came to himself and rubbed his head to ease his headache. Suddenly, he found that

he was holding someone in his arms.
