Chapter 1457 

Kenneth held Jacqueline’s hand nervously. “Jacqueline, you can’t just listen to his side of the story, you got to hear me out too. Things aren’t what you think…” 

Explaining was as good as admitting guilt. 

Jacqueline didn’t even let him finish, she got up in a huff and left. “Steven, drive me to Oakhurst Estate.” 

Steven gave a triumphant look to the pale-faced Kenneth, then followed Jacqueline. “Mother, I didn’t park my car in the yard, it’s right at the gate. Let’s head this way. We’ll be out of this sad place in no time.” 

Jacqueline remained silent and just kept on walking. Soon, they both got in the car. Jacqueline sat in the back, and Steven naturally took the wheel. 

The car slowly drove out of the villa area. Steven glanced at Jacqueline in the rearview mirror. “Mother, are we really going to Oakhurst Estate?”. 

Jacqueline’s face was devoid of emotions, and she counter-asked, “When did you find out?” 

Steven played dumb. “Find out what?” 

Jacqueline said, “I carried you for ten months, you might fool others, but you can’t fool me. You better come clean today, or you’re not going anywhere.” 

Steven said, “Right, I’m your son, how could I ever deceive you?” 

Jacqueline wished she could punch him. He was still spouting nonsense at this critical moment. “You brought up Kenneth’s issue now, you want me on your side, don’t you? If you want to change the subject, go ahead, I’ve got all the time in the world.” 

Steven said, “Mom, whether you’re on my side, do you think it matters? Regardless of your approval, I will remarry Hannah. In this life, she’s my only choice.” 

Jacqueline said, “Hannah’s family has always been poor. She’s from a humble background and uneducated. Her mother is a butcher’s daughter. She grew up learning how to slaughter pigs from her grandfather. Hannah herself is not a good student; she’s useless to you and the Dixon Group. I really don’t understand, why are you so obsessed with her?” 

Steven said, “Whether she can help me or not doesn’t matter. As long as I’m strong enough, I can protect her. I married her because I love her, I never expected to gain anything from her.” 

Jacqueline sneered, “Steven, don’t make yourself sound so noble. She may not assist you at work, but I believe at least you have a good marital life. She satisfies your physical needs, and that’s her value…” 

Steven didn’t like this kind of talk, his brows furrowed unhappily. 

Seeing that Steven didn’t refute, Jacqueline smiled faintly, her eyes full of disdain. “For people who use their beauty to gain favor, when their beauty fades, so will the affection of those who love them.” 

Steven said, “Mom!” 

Jacqueline said, “What, upset? Am I wrong? Apart from her looks and figure, what else does Hannah have that’s admirable?” 

Steven said, “Whether she has admirable qualities, I know better than you. Her beauty is her advantage, and it shouldn’t be used as a weapon to attack her. You told me when I was very young, we shouldn’t casually judge a person’s appearance. But now, you’re attacking my wife’s appearance in front of me, are you still the mother I respect?” Jacqueline replied, “For that woman, I’m not even your mother anymore.” 

Steven responded, “You know that’s not what I meant.” 

Jacqueline knew Steven was angry, so she dropped the subject. “You’re grown up now, I shouldn’t interfere in your love life. But as for Kenneth’s issue, I think I have the right to meddle. Now, take me to see the mother and son, I’m curious about the kind of woman who could captivate Kenneth.”
