The Revenge of the Mute Wife by Melanie Paulson novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214 

Eric and Samantha were growing increasingly concerned. Ever since Jayden and Deborah returned from lunch with George and his son, they had been acting strangely 

Samantha approached her son to find out what had happened and was met with a shocking revelation: Roger was now intent on being part of James’s life. The worst part was that he had convinced Deborah to let him get close to the baby. 

Naturally, this upset Jayden and caused tension between them. 

Jayden’s parents were also a bit upset with Deborah, unable to understand why she had agreed to this when Roger had never shown any interest in James before. 

As a result, the atmosphere at home grew a bit uncomfortable. 

The weekend arrived, bringing with it the grand opening of the hotel. 

When the Cooper family arrived at the event, many noticed that the young couple didn’t seem as cheerful and harmonious as usual, drawing the curiosity of those eager to find out what had happened. 

The hotel itself was quite impressive. From its facade to the interior, every detail showcased the fifteen floors, which included several pools, a golf course, gyms, restaurants, and a private rooftop garden. 

“Wow the place is beautiful,” Deborah remarked as she took in the finished product. 

“Hehe, I was also surprised by the result,” the hotel’s new owner said. “Your husband is incredibly talented. As soon as I saw his design in 3D, I fell in love with his vision.” 

Thank you, sir,” Jayden said, blushing with modesty. 

“I agree, son, You’ve outdone yourself,” Samantha said, admiring her son’s work. 

“You’re definitely upholding the company’s reputation.” Eric praised. 

“I agree. He’s very talented and shows his passion in his designs,” Deborah said, holding Jayden’s hand and smiling at him. 

“Ah..” James was excited, his little eyes wide as he took in the colorful flowers nearby. 

“Hm…” the owner said happily. “Well, it’s time to cut the ribbon,” he said, apologizing to the couple before heading to the entrance to start the inauguration with a speech of thanks to the Cooper family for creating such a beautiful, functional work of art. Every part of the hotel had its own unique details and decorations. 

After cutting the ribbon, all the guests were invited to the dining area to enjoy the party. 

As they entered the dining room, the Cooper family was seated at a large table to enjoy the event, placed a little further away from the music to avoid disturbing James. 

“We’ll be right back, kids. I’m going to greet some friends,” Eric said, standing up with his beloved to chat with their friends. 

“Go ahead,” Deborah and Jayden said in unison. 

At that moment, Marie arrived, thrilled that her family had received an invitation. It didn’t take her long to

find them 

As Marie approached cautiously, she saw Deborah standing. 

“I’m going to change his diaper. I’ll be right back,” Deborah said, carrying James to the restroom. 

“Be careful.” 

Marie waited for Deborah to enter the restroom before approaching Jayden’s table. “Jayden, what a coincidence ” 

“It seems so,” Jayden replied with an indifferent tone, glancing at her. 

Marie didn’t initially notice her appearance but quickly composed herself. “Um… I know we didn’t get a chance to talk properly last time,” she said, sitting down next to him and taking his hand. 

“I’m not sure what we would have talked about,” he said, pulling his hand away. 

“Well, you know… the old times. Even though we’re far apart, I still haven’t been able to forget you,” she said, sounding both distressed and a bit flirtatious. 

“Really? Then tell me, why did you never answer my calls or messages?” he asked, frowning and looking her in the eye. 

Marie smiled, as it meant he hadn’t forgotten her. “The thing is… AHH!” she screamed as something fell on her head and soaked her. 

“Wah… James’s voice was heard behind her, causing her to turn around quickly and see the little rascal had accidentally spilled his milk on her. 

“Oh no, James… bad boy, that’s not nice,” Deborah said, trying to stifle her laughter. 

“Deborah, we’re in public. That was rude,” Jayden said, frowning as he offered Marie a napkin to clean her face. 

“It wasn’t rude. James just likes to play with animals on the streets,” Deborah explained. 

Marie gritted her teeth at that. 

“Ah.. you know, I think I’m going to have to teach him better to be a decent man.” Jayden said with a tired 

tone. 

“Let me remind you that you can’t do that,” Deborah snapped, frowning. 

“Heh… really? Are you going to accept that idiot’s apologies and take away my right to…” Jayden began, raising his voice and drawing the attention of the other guests. 

“Buaaaa!” James cried out, frightened by the loud voices. 

“Jayden, don’t shout. You’re scaring him,” Deborah scolded, rocking the baby. “It’s okay, sweetheart, Mommy’s here.” 

Tch… I really can’t believe you’re so stupid as to believe his fake apologies and let him get close to my son, Jayden complained, crossing his arms. 

“Who are you talking about?” Marie asked, her curiosity and delight evident as she saw them arguing.

“Deborah, behave and don’t insult Marie.”
