Hypnotizing Love(Love Letters) novel Chapter 888

“Mr. Farrell, is there anything else I can do for you?” Ben asked again, holding back his complaints.

Jared looked down for a moment, “Did you get any strange phone calls or people today?”

Strange phone call? Strange people?

Ben shook his head in confusion, “No, Mr. Farrell. Did something happen?”

“Alice Stockert’s lawyer is the group’s former head of the legal department,” Jared said.

Ben thought back and remembered a face, “You mean, York Wall?”

“Yes.” Jared lifted his chin, “He was hired by Connor Stockert for Alice Stockert, just to try and get me to let Alice Stockert go, but the deal fell apart, so Connor Stockert could have called you and asked you about me, or find someone else to spy on the group.”

All in all, Connor Stockert probably wouldn’t be contacting him easily.

After all, he was Hendrik Farrell’s son.

Who wanted to be in touch with the son of a rival?

“Oh, I see.” Ben nodded, “Don’t worry, Mr. Farrell, I haven’t had any cold calls or seen anyone strange today.”

Jared nodded, “That’s good.”

“Oh, Mr. Farrell.” Ben seemed to think of something. So, he pushed his glasses and asked, “What is Connor Stockert’s relationship with Alice Stockert? Why would he do so much for Alice Stockert? Are they really father and daughter, as we thought?”

Jared scowled and didn’t answer.

Ben’s eyes widened as he realized something from his silence, “Really? Father and daughter?”

Jared let out a sneer, “Just an illegitimate child.”

…

Ben gasped, “Illegitimate daughter… Alice Stockert is twenty-seven this year if I remember correctly. Doesn’t that mean…”

Ben’s eyes widened and he stopped. He felt sorry for Jared’s mother.

He was one of the people who knew about her past.

So, it was hard to be at peace now that Connor Stockert fathered a child out of wedlock in the third year of Mrs. Farrell’s marriage.

What about the deal that he would wait for Mrs. Farrell and never get a woman?

Eventually, not only did he find another woman, he even got an illegitimate daughter.

People at the Capital were still saying Connor Stockert was a good guy, saying that he always loved Mrs. Farrell, and he didn’t get married because of Mrs. Farrell.

But in fact, behind the scenes, he did just everything.

It was foolish of Mrs. Farrell to fall in love with such a man.

Thinking of that, Ben swore at Connor Stockert over and over, then asked with concern, “Mr. Farrell, are you all right?”

He was so angry to hear that Alice Stockert was Connor Stockert’s illegitimate daughter.

Jared, the son of the old Mrs. Farrell, was understandably even angrier.

Now Mr. Farrell’s heart was getting weaker every day, and he must not get too angry or too emotional.

So, he was worried about Mr. Farrell’s health.

“I’m ok.” Jared squinted. His eyes were full of storm, “I had a guess, so after knowing about everything, I was prepared. I’m not that angry to want to kill him, and there is Little Leaf with me, I’m fine.”

Ben’s face was expressionless and he rolled his eyes.

Sure enough, he could not avoid hearing how much they loved each other.

He couldn’t figure it out. He was concerned about Mr. Farrell.

Why did Mr. Farrell brag about how much they loved each other?

That was biting the hand that fed you.

The conversation couldn’t go on anymore. He’d better hang up!
