Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 499

Emma watched as his car drove out before entering. She turned around and saw Deon and Bernice walking out from not far away, followed by Stony.

"Why didn't you go with Jaquan?" When Bernice saw Emma, she asked curiously, "He won't take you there?"

Emma shook her head, "He has something to do."

"What's more important than accompanying you?" Deon snorted unhappily.

Bernice discontentedly said, "Well, when you told me that you had something to do, did that mean that I wasn't as important as your affairs?"

Deon was lost for words.

"We're going out to buy some clothes for Stony. Together?" Bernice asked.

Stony shook Emma's hand, "Mom, let's go together. Grandpa and Grandma bought me a lot of clothes, so did Mr. Collin. I also want to buy some for them."

Emma touched his face, "Do you have money?"

Stony nodded, "Yes." As he spoke, he took out a gold card from his pocket.

Emma was dumbfounded.

"Dad, he's still young. You can't give him so much money." She stuffed the card into Deon's hand.

Deon replied with dissatisfaction, "There's only two million in the card." Then he gave it back to Stony and said earnestly, "When your uncles were your age, they would go buy a sports car. You can go and see it later. I'll buy you whichever you like. A man should have a car of his own, no matter how old he is. It is a symbol of status, you know?"

Stony nodded in confusion.

Emma didn't know what to say.

Bernice patted Deon's hand away. "You'll misguide Stony this way. Go away." She held Stony and said, "Let's go buy some stones and see if we can get an emerald. I just want to buy another bracelet."

Emma was speechless.

All she could do was to rescue Stony from her unreliable parents before planning the route. They would first buy clothes in the department store and then went to the luxury shop to choose bracelets for Bernice. Women were always fickle in their affection. For example, Bernice would change at least four bracelets a year.

While Emma had neither decorations nor jewelry other than the cherry hair tie, not even a watch.

Right, now, she finally got a matching mobile phone, which was designed for lovers, from Jaquan, and the pendant was a small stone.

After the car set off, Emma gently touched the stone and asked casually, "Dad, what was Jaquan discussing with you today?"

"Didn't I tell you?" Sensing her implication, Deon immediately found Jaquan's fault and hurriedly complained, "This man shouldn't conceal this kind of thing from you. He is scheming!"

"I didn't ask him," Emma said.

Deon was instantly depressed.

He was okay with Jaquan. He had managed to find his daughter with great difficulty, but now she was about to marry someone else. As a father, he was upset and unable to like Jaquan.

Jaquan said with calmness, "I'm not afraid."

"You have guts." Deon snorted, "Aren't you a lawyer? You can file a suit."

"I can't participate in such a criminal case." Jaquan stood up from his chair. "If you aren't willing to help, I will not insist. I'll think of another way."

"Alright, go think of another way." Deon turned his chair, his back to Jaquan.

These were the facts.

However, Deon wouldn't tell them the details for he knew clearly that once he told them, they would support Jaquan.

"That case is complex. Dad, don't interfere." Emma said softly, "I will tell him."

Bernice also nodded. "Don't get involved in dangerous matters. The results are out anyway, and there's no way to change them. Just wait and see."

Although Deon agreed, when he heard them speak at the same time, Jaquan's sincere words involuntarily appeared in his mind.

"You also have children. Think about it, if it were your children..."

Deon rubbed his temples in frustration. He thought to himself, 'Damn, these words stabbed in my weak points.'

It seemed there was a curse keeping buzzing in his ears as if he wouldn't be able to sleep well for the rest of his life if he didn't help.
