Christopher immediately chimed in, “Exactly, what if she has her reasons? If you knew about them, you could secretly help her out like a prince. Wouldn’t everyone be happy then? But if she turns out to be a fraud, like she’s not pretty-” 

“I don’t mind!” Jake interjected immediately. 

Christopher’s lips twitched. “What if she’s a wed woman? What if… she’s a man!” 

A panic expression crossed Brody’s face, his complexion turned pale, but it wasn’t noticeable due to the dim lighting. 

Quickly, Jake retorted, “How is that possible?” 

Clearly, he was more resistant to the possibility of his online girlfriend being a man than a married 

woman. 

“So, why not give it a shot? We’ll do it on the sly. If she gets mad, we’ll take the blame as your buddies and apologize for you,” Christopher immediately began to coax. 

Even though Brody weakly voiced out that it wasn’t right and was disrespectful to Jake’s girlfriend, even Eula, beside him, also persuaded Jake. After all, she was extremely curious about who the subject of their discussion was. Little did she know, that person was right beside her. 

Isabella could already picture how anxious and worried Brody was. 

Instead of handing over the number for Alexander to have his men trace it, Jake, soft–hearted as usual, said, “I’ll try to reach out again. If I can’t get through, then we’ll discuss further.” 

With that said, he was about to make another phone call. 

Without hesitation, Brody made an excuse to leave the room, claiming he needed to use the restroom. 

Watching him in such a frantic state, Isabella and the other two struggled to hold back their laughter. 

Before long, Jake’s call connected. He was immediately filled with excitement, put the call on speaker, and a woman’s voice came from the other end. 

The voice changer is quite sophisticated and completely unrecognizable. 

Isabella thought admiringly, Christopher and Rosalie shared the same sentiment. Seeing Jake merely utter a few words and immediately being charmed by the other party’s voice and coquettish behavior to the point of grinning, they couldn’t bear to watch. 

However, Brody was indeed impressive. With just a few words, he almost coaxed Jake into hanging up the phone: 

Alexander tapped on the table, signaling him to get down to business. 

Jake brought up the birthday banquet, and the other party fell silent for a moment, presumably too flustered to come up with an excuse on the spot. 

In the end, the other party finally admitted, “Truth be told… I’ve been feeling down lately because my

simply haven’t had the time or the emotional capacity to meet you. I want to be at my best when we meet for the first time, but the timing is really bad as of late. Can we discuss this after my mother is discharged?” 

Holy cr*p, does your mom know you’re cursing her behind her back? 

Christopher and Rosalie were rendered speechless. What kind of person was this? His own mother is right here! 

Jake immediately asked about the mother’s condition with a hint of worry, not doubting the excuse at all. It was no wonder he was deceived for so long. 

Jake threw out assurance after assurance and asked repeatedly if he could help, but after being declined each time, he finally hung up the phone. 

“Wait, do you really believe that excuse? It sounds like a hastily made–up excuse!” Christopher couldn’t help but exclaim. 

“No one would joke about their own mother’s health, would they?” For someone like Jake, who lost his mother at a young age, it seemed like an unthinkable occurrence. 

Isabella said, “Don’t doubt it because it does happen. What you should consider is, if it was a lie, why would she rather lie than meet with you? What exactly is she hiding from you?” 

Jake was taken aback. Initially, Eula shared the same thoughts as her brother, but hearing what everyone else had to say, she couldn’t help but voice out, “Jake, I think they have a point.” 

At that very moment, Brody came back in a rush. 

Isabella watched as he broke into a sweat, probably worrying about their situation with Jake. He’ll be even more worried later. 

Sure enough, as soon as he sat down, he heard discussions about whether or not he was lying and felt incredibly restless. 

As a result, Alexander commented, “Jake, call her again. You didn’t tell her our family has access to the best medical resources. If her mother is truly ill, I don’t think she’ll mind us offering the finest medical care for her mother.” 

Brody was drenched in cold sweat. 

Jake suddenly slapped his forehead, saying, “Right, I’ll call her now.”
