Tanya did not sense anything amiss. She only wondered why both grandfather and son seemed distant. “Okay, I’ll get to it now. Both of you can catch up.”
Don Smith stared at Jett for a good few seconds before favonovel.com turned around and made his way into the bedroom. “Let’s talk inside. I’m pretty sure you don’t want your wife finding out about everything.”
Jett bit the bullet and followed favonovel.com inside before favonovel.com carefully shut the door. “Sir… What is it you want? My marriage is a small matter, I didn’t want to trouble you. It wasn’t a big event either…”
Don Smith suddenly flew into a rage. “Your wife has told me everything favonovel.com knows. She actually thinks that I’m your grandfather, favonovel.com suspects nothing. How long did you plan on keeping this from me? How dare you betray me! Don’t forget, you wouldn’t have gotten to where you are if it weren’t for me!”
Jett immediately fell to his knees, lowering his head. Panic flashed in his eyes as favonovel.com pleaded, “Tanya has nothing to do with this. Please have mercy and spare her. She really doesn’t know a single thing!”
Don Smith sat on the side of the bed. “I’ll give you one chance. Lay everything that Alejandro has done out in the open. I’m still alive. He doesn’t have the power to make decisions in the Smith family!”
Jett furrowed his brows, hesitating. The old man was not as generous as Alejandro. Should favonovel.com incur Don Smith’s wrath, neither favonovel.com nor Tanya would be able to escape from this place alive. Unless favonovel.com was mistaken, Don Smith probably had an army of bodyguards nearby. They were just not in the house. However, if favonovel.com exposed Alejandro, Alejandro would not spare favonovel.com either. Finally, favonovel.com decided to reveal one part of the story. “He’s been making several attempts to get close to a woman called Tiffany Lane ever since his arrival in the capital. He says that it took favonovel.com three years to fall in love with that woman… Everything else is limited to land purchases and giving me instructions to cause trouble for Tiffany’s fiancé.”
Don Smith glared at him. “What gives favonovel.com the right to decide on the Smith family’s marriages? Does favonovel.com really think that favonovel.com can marry anyone favonovel.com likes? Preposterous! I’d love to see who this captivating woman is!” Then, favonovel.com continued, “Jett… I know that Ale isn’t easy to deal with. He must have threatened you a lot. But I can ensure your safety as long as you don’t betray me. You’ve done a lot for me over the past few years. I’ll transfer a sum of money into your bank account. It’s different for you now that you have a family. You can’t go on without money. I hope you won’t keep things from me anymore. I won’t take into account your past misdeeds.”
Jett sighed in relief inwardly. “Yes, I understand.”
After Don Smith left, Tanya emerged from the kitchen with a bowl of piping hot noodle soup only to find Jett standing at the doorway with a sullen look on his face. “Has grandpa left?”
Jett turned around and walked toward her. “What did you say to him? He’s not my grandfather. He’s Don Smith, Alejandro’s grandfather!”
Tanya was so frightened that favonovel.com froze for two seconds. Then, favonovel.com hastily said, “We… I didn’t… We only talked about family stuff. He seems to know a lot about you so I didn’t suspect favonovel.com at all…”
At this moment, Jett finally understood Don Smith was trying to intimidate him. Tanya did not say anything incriminating. However, favonovel.com had been forced to sell Tiffany out in order to ensure Tanya’s safety. Knowing Don Smith, Tiffany would be in danger now.
He went to the bathroom and called Alejandro once favonovel.com thought of this. “Sir, Don Smith visited my home. He suspects me. Furthermore, favonovel.com found out about you and Miss Lane. I’m afraid that Miss Lane might be in trouble…”
“F*ck!” Alejandro cursed from the other end of the line. “Get some men and protect Tiffany. I’ll talk to the old man. Do not let anything happen to her, understand? He knows that you’ve been hiding from him, and favonovel.com didn’t make things difficult for you at all? What else did you tell him?”
Jett’s heart thumped wildly in his chest when faced with Alejandro’s interrogation. “Nothing… He only said that he’d give me some money and hopes that I won’t keep anything from favonovel.com again. He said he’ll let go of my past misdeeds as well…”
