Chapter 151: 151 Cousin takes Zoe to catch a cheater? [National Day Event]
Zoe Bell was busy at Hannah Johnson’s place, dealing with the shop matters continuously and also had to prepare more incense and Incense Cards. Yumi Johnson, apart from seeing her lawyer, spent most of her time at home. Both of them were good company for each other.
They cooked together and went shopping, and their relationship was very good.
This prompted Hannah Johnson to tease:
"Why do I feel like you two are more like mother and daughter, and I’m the outsider?"
"If Zoe is willing, I’d actually like to have another daughter," Yumi Johnson said with a smile, "By the way, Zoe and I are going out shopping this afternoon, and we’ll dine out in the evening."
"What about me in the evening?" Hannah Johnson asked, startled.
"Cook for yourself or order takeout."
"..."
At that moment, Hannah Johnson really began to doubt who her real daughter was.
Zoe Bell’s personality was completely different from that of her own daughter, gentle and quiet, which Yumi Johnson liked.
Hannah Johnson complained to her cousin:
"Ever since your wife came to my house, I feel like my mom doesn’t love me as much as before."
William Hale: "Then give me back my wife."
"No way!"
"..."
"Lately, the two of us have been sleeping together, and believe it or not, she’s sweet and soft, and her cooking is delicious. You’re really lucky, man. She knows how to dance and make incense, totally has my mom wrapped around her finger."
William Hale took a deep breath, "How long exactly do you plan to keep my wife to yourself?"
"I’m not hogging her; I think she’s avoiding you on purpose too. Come on, what did you do to her the other day?"
William Hale rubbed his temples with a headache.
"What are your plans regarding Liam Hugh?"
"Since the rumors spread, all the clients associated with me have cut ties with him."
"He has been surrounded by enemies recently, living like he’s in a constant state of siege."
Hannah Johnson just smiled, "He deserves it for not living the good life and instead, making trouble for himself."
"But William Hale, your way of changing the subject... is really too abrupt. Let’s continue the conversation we didn’t finish just now, what exactly did you do to Zoe..."
The call was cut off before she could finish.
Hannah Johnson expressed her frustration:
How boring.
So dull and uninteresting, I don’t know how Zoe can stand him.
——
Zoe Bell and Yumi Johnson had been out shopping for half the day and bought quite a lot. When they returned home, they found other people there.
Hannah Johnson had arranged a manicure appointment and had just finished one hand. She waved it at Zoe, "Hey Zoe, look at my new nails, how do they look?"
The color was a subdued shade that complemented her skin tone nicely.
"They look nice."
"Want to choose a set for yourself?"
Zoe Bell shook her head, "I need to keep my fingers clean for making incense, so I can’t do manicures."
"Doing nails this late?" Yumi Johnson frowned, "Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet."
"You..."
Hannah Johnson stopped her mother, saying she wanted to take Zoe Bell out for an after-manicure term, after which she changed into a black dress.
"Sister, what are we doing going out so late?" Zoe Bell eyed her, dressed to the nines.
Hannah Johnson leaned close and whispered, "Come on, I’ll take you to see something exciting."
"Huh?"
Between the young girls, there are always little secrets. Thinking her daughter always knew her boundaries in actions, Yumi Johnson didn’t inquire further.

Meanwhile, in an apartment
Liam Hugh was having a rough time recently. A friend suggested he seek a truce with the Hale Family.
Bow down to William Hale?
As an elder and uncle, how could he bow and admit his wrongs to someone younger? Liam Hugh was naturally unwilling," with the company’s recent poor performance, he had no interest in women either.
But Molly Hanson said she had good news to tell him, urging him to come, or else she would visit his company.
Adding personal scandal to his issues would only worsen his situation.
Liam Hugh had no choice but to come and pacify her.
When he arrived at the apartment, he saw it decorated with numerous flowers and candles, a cake on the table, and a bottle of open red wine, and his head exploded.
He had been working hard lately, and there she was, enjoying herself?
"Why don’t you come in? I have a gift for you."
Molly Hanson hooked his tie, leading him through the door.
"I’ve been really busy lately, what’s going on?" Liam Hugh was somewhat impatient.
"I heard... you’re divorcing your wife at home?"
Liam frowned, "Who told you that!"
"It’s all over town, I know your taboo, and I didn’t mean to pry... it’s just..." Just over thirty, Molly had been kept by him for more than two years, not particularly beautiful, with a serpent-like waist and a coquettish voice.
She must have her merits to keep Liam’s heart engaged.
"Just what?" Liam’s face looked quite displeased.
"If you really get a divorce, can my child in my belly have a legitimate status?"
"I don’t mind, but I can’t let the child suffer."
"My wife and I have many ties, divorce isn’t something that can happen overnight..." Liam’s words trailed off, his pupils suddenly dilated, "What did you say? Child?"
"I’m pregnant."
Liam’s gaze dropped to her flat abdomen, "Molly, you’re not lying to me?"
"This is the test result, and I flew to Portland specifically for a blood test to determine the gender, they said it’s a boy," Molly smiled.
A boy?
Liam was overjoyed, he was going to have a son!
This was one of the few pieces of good news he had received recently.
"Molly, I’m really so happy, I don’t even know what to say," Liam was overwhelmed, immediately hugging her tightly, "Don’t worry, my son, I will definitely give him the best."
His divorce from Yumi Johnson was also a matter of time.
Molly frowned, softly pushing his shoulder, "Don’t hug so tight, what if you hurt the baby?"
"Right, right, right." Liam was ecstatic, he finally had a successor, "Molly, what do you want? A house, a car?"
"I want you to kiss me," she said.
"..."
As a skilled seductress, she naturally had her ways with men.
While pregnancy meant they couldn’t go all the way, they could still do other things - inside the house, they were on fire, completely unaware of what they would face next.
The car drove into a high-end apartment in Capital City.
"Sis? What is this place?" Zoe Bell frowned.
Vaguely, she felt she had the answer.
"It’s Molly’s house."
"..."
"Sister is taking you to catch a cheater."
Zoe Bell’s pupils trembled slightly, to catch...
Her own biological father?
"Are we just going up like this?" The Bell Family was strict, she even had no freedom to socialize, always followed the rules, never had she done something so thrilling.
"Are you scared?" Hannah Johnson looked at her with a smile.
"No, just a bit nervous."
Zoe and thought to herself:
Should I inform my aunt or Mr. Hale about this, could there be any danger or unexpected incidents?
She felt it improper, but on one side was a cheating scum father and on the other, a despicable mistress, neither deserving of sympathy, she was anxious yet somewhat excited.
"When do we burst in?"
Hannah glanced at her watch, "It’s about time."
As they got out of the car, Zoe noticed a black business van parked not far away, the window rolled down, revealing a familiar face.
"Sister-in-law," Logan Hale nodded.
Hannah was not one to be at a disadvantage, naturally bringing enough backup.
Those two, one shameless, the other a cheap tramp, even a dog bites when cornered, and if things really escalated, anything could happen.
If she hadn’t been fully prepared, she wouldn’t have brought Zoe here.
Otherwise, if something really happened, she wouldn’t know how to explain it to her cousin.
But what she didn’t expect...
Another head popped out from the passenger seat, grinning at her, "Sis, long time no see."
She and Zoe were both speechless.
Why,
was Wyatt Hale there?
He was always one to stir the pot, Zoe took a deep breath, tonight was going to be quite the spectacle.
