Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 977 - 977 The child is not mine number 3

Chapter 977: The child is not mine, number 3. Chapter 977: The child is not mine, number 3. After a good rest, Grand Lady Johnson’s body finally recovered.

Looking at how Arnold Johnson clearly understood everything, Grand Lady Johnson felt as though she had swallowed a fly, nauseous and uncomfortable.

Why did the person she despised and resented the most know everything?

“Rest assured, no one will let this secret out. Aside from telling you, I won’t mention it to anyone else. I spoke up only because I think some things are better dealt with directly between us.” Arnold truly was tired of dealing with these troublesome matters.

“When did you find out about this?” Grand Lady Johnson asked with a somewhat pale expression, sadness lacing her tone.

Arnold answered: “It was many years ago, I don’t remember exactly when.”

Many years ago? Had this detestable man been silently watching her make a fool of herself for so many years? Watching her act?

“It seems that you also know you’re not my son. If that’s the case, why didn’t you say it earlier? If you didn’t disclose it before, why bring it up now?” Grand Lady Johnson asked hysterically.

Arnold replied indifferently, “I didn’t say it earlier because I didn’t feel it was necessary. Moreover, when dad and my elder brother died, they both asked me to take care of you. I’m bringing it up now because you’ve been pushing me too frequently. I thought it would be best for us to clear the air, so there would be no need to bring it up in the future. I won’t go back on my promise to Dad and my elder brother. As long as you behave, I’ll naturally treat you like a mother.”

By behaving, he meant not causing him any trouble!

“I have never regarded you as my son.” Grand Lady Johnson said coldly, teeth clenched.

Arnold, not surprised by her words, calmly stated, “I’ve always known.”

“Since you know that, then you should also understand that I hate you. If not for Chloe’s deep love for you, I would have wished for you to completely vanish from this world.”

“I know, which is why you’ve attempted to assassinate me so many times, and I’ve never held it against you.” All of this, Arnold was aware of.

Grand Lady Johnson suddenly laughed to the heavens, “What a joke… I should have focused on killing you from the start; it would have spared me all these troubles. Perhaps if I had cut off Chloe’s affections earlier, she wouldn’t be living so miserably now.”

Arnold didn’t interrupt Grand Lady Johnson’s complaints.

All these years, she had harbored this hatred toward him.

If not for his presence, perhaps Grand Master Johnson would not have died so soon, Christopher would not have died so young, and might be still alive to support the facade of the Johnson Family.

So, he owed Grand Lady Johnson, because, after all, her biological son had indeed died trying to save him.

Originally, the one who was supposed to die was Arnold.

“Arnold, do you know why I hate you? Not only did you indirectly cause the death of my husband and son, but you’ve also made my daughter suffer from her unrequited love for you all her life. Yet, you put on this facade of righteousness, wanting to take care of me as if I were your mother. If you truly were so righteous, why didn’t you just satisfy me by fulfilling Chloe’s request? That way, I would have become your mother in both name and reality, and our relationship wouldn’t have become so strained. With all this said and done, you’ve played both the good and the bad guy.”

Grand Lady Johnson accused him word by word.
