Chapter 974 - 966: Playing with Fire, Getting Burned 2Chapter 974: Chapter 966: Playing with Fire, Getting Burned 2
Graham Ford seemed completely unfazed by the situation, leisurely taking a cigarette from the pocket of his suit pants and lighting it.
The spreading smell of the cigarette made her uneasy.
Before she could figure out what was happening, the door opened.
Rouge Jarvis pushed the door open and saw Sue Rooney with disheveled clothes. Her eyes dodged briefly before returning to their relaxed state. Gigi smiled playfully, "Rouge, you’re here."
It was sheer provocation.
Rouge’s gaze fell on the exposed shoulder, softly instructing her companion, "It’s chilly on autumn mornings, Miss Sue is pregnant, she absolutely can’t catch a cold, go fetch her a coat."
The thoughtfulness in her words, the nobility in her eyes, every detail exuded Rouge Jarvis’s unique charm and grace.
In this house, she was the mistress, every word and deed was impeccable.
The companion nodded, "Yes."
At this moment, Sue Rooney was more bewildered.
Rouge’s demeanor was even more shocking and inscrutable than Graham Ford’s.
A woman who believes the man loves her like the first day, can’t do without her, and would love her only for life, should collapse upon seeing him spend all night with another woman.
Why is she feeling nothing?
Could the rumors of their love be false? Has she seen enough of her husband being ambiguous with other women, and therefore feels nothing anymore?
If so, that would explain it.
But still, there was some unease in her heart.
She tried to look like a winner at this moment, slightly curled her lips, her smile blooming like a flower, "Rouge, last night, Graham couldn’t hold back and had me accompany him for a long talk through the night. Don’t misunderstand, even if we were to be intimate, it wouldn’t be here at home. Graham said he wanted to save face for you."
The more she said, the more it raised suspicion.
Yet, Rouge seemed disdainful, just lifted her lips, "Miss Sue, you’ve got good taste."
Even in middle age, her smile, her charming fox eyes, shone with brilliance.
Upon hearing this, Sue was again stunned.
Is Rouge praising her for choosing Graham? How could there be such a calm wife in the world?
Graham looked at her with tenderness, "Come sit."
When she approached, he extinguished the cigarette in his hand.
Rouge sat down.
At that time, the companion also brought the coat and handed it to Sue Rooney.
Sue held the coat, remaining in a state of confusing bewilderment.
Rouge raised an eyebrow, "Companion, go fetch a chair."
Uncertain of her intent, Sue swallowed, feeling the strong aura from Rouge that rivaled Graham’s.
The companion returned and placed the chair in front of Sue, "Miss Sue, please sit."
"No, I want to sit with Graham."
She shook her head, looked at Rouge, and continued to provoke, "Rouge, you should sit. Last night, Graham and I were on this couch making love, it’s covered in my scent. Surely, you wouldn’t want to sit."
Rouge toyed with her red nails, her smile gentle, alluring, "Unluckily, I love smelling how fragrant a wildflower is, and if it is fragrant enough to make Old Ford fall for it."
Sue Rooney: "???"
What kind of bizarre wife is this, not hysterically angry, seemingly having the demeanor of picking a woman for her husband.
Just this made Sue feel inferior.
Then, Rouge sighed lightly, shaking her head, "Unfortunately, you’re not worthy."
Sue touched her belly, trying to remain composed, but Rouge’s approach was unsettling, "The child in my belly belongs to Graham, how am I not worthy?"
Rouge raised an eyebrow, "Since you’ve come and done everything, are you planning to produce evidence to prove your child is Old Ford’s?"
"Of course."
Upon saying this, Sue handed over the paternity test.
She glanced at Graham’s attitude, as if none of this concerned him.
Not defending himself, it suggested their marital relationship was indeed poor.
He hadn’t blamed her since waking; perhaps Graham truly had fallen for her at first sight.
Thinking of this, she smiled, "This is a non-invasive DNA test, the child is indeed your husband’s, Rouge Jarvis, when Graham lies next to me, he thinks and dreams only of me."
"Do you have other evidence?"
Sue voiced her displeasure, "Isn’t this enough proof that the child belongs to Graham and me?"
At this moment, she already regarded Graham as acknowledging the child, coquettishly complained, tearfully red eyes, "Graham, she doesn’t acknowledge it, but the child is yours."
She blinked, tears falling, "On the third of last month, when you were on a business trip to Varden, discussing business with a partner, you got drunk, and I was the one who sent you to the hotel room. We had a passionate night; you might forget, but I won’t."
Her words sounded very convincing.
Rouge remembered last month’s business trip of Old Ford, he met Old Man Lawson whom he collaborated with when he first started the business.
That night, he was deeply touched and insisted on chatting with her on video, saying cheesy things.
All night, she watched him drunk but also saw the unchanged heart for years.
Apart from that, she didn’t see Sue in the room.
Sue saw his long finger gently tapping on the watch, appearing to wait for something, indifferent, seemingly discussing others.
Not wanting her efforts wasted, she asked, "Graham, do you not remember? Even drunk, we consummated as husband and wife, now we have a child, I just want a family."
After saying this, Graham looked at her.
Sue felt joy deep inside, she knew this situation because she was there that night, just had a drink and then left.
Graham got drunk, he must thought what she said was true.
Getting closer to becoming his wife.
To her surprise, he simply glanced, then drew Rouge into his embrace, those sly eyes showing traces of cruelty, the smile wicked, "Let me be the father of your child. Rouge was right; your taste isn’t bad."
The sentence sounded like praise, but upon closer look, felt destructive.
Sue’s breath tightened, forcing herself to ignore the suffocating fear, "Graham, are you acknowledging the child? I don’t ask for much, just a place in your heart, and I’m satisfied."
Graham seemed to lose patience, "Preston, go get the surveillance video."
"Yes."
Preston Quinn left.
This period was undoubtedly prolonged for Sue.
She didn’t understand Graham’s attitude at all.
At that moment, the police arrived, came to her without a word, and took out handcuffs, restraining her.
Simultaneously, Tiana Thorne and Aiden Shaw also entered.
