Chapter 619: Chapter 619: Being Manipulated by My Son (Monthly Ticket Additional Release)_1
Norman Douglas was stunned and took a while to co to his senses.
Purple Sumrs had guessed right again…
Ever since Riley Montgory moved into that house and started leading a secluded life with the child, the private tutor’s little maneuvers also increased.
Sotis she would bend over to pick sothing up in front of him, revealing the beautiful view of her chest, other tis her clothes would get wet, accentuating the curves of her body.
Once or twice, he might think it accidental, but as it happened more often, he began to feel that this private tutor was up to no good, such crude seduction tactics were really not to his taste.
Besides, he was already distressed and agitated over his wife and daughter’s situation, where would he find the mood to flirt with other won?
Norman Douglas was proud to consider himself an upright gentleman. Although he found the teacher’s behavior improper, seeing how much his son was attached to her, he pretended not to notice and didn’t dismiss her.
Looking back now, her bending over to pick things up seed to be because his son’s toys happened to fall, and her wet clothes were from being hit by a water gun while playing with his son…
…Was it all just a coincidence?
His innocent and adorable son once asked him, “Daddy, doesn’t Mommy want anymore?”
He comforted his son, “Mommy is just sick…”
“If Mommy doesn’t want anymore, can you marry Ms. Lulu to be my new mommy?”
His son’s childish talk had amused him, but now, connecting it to what Purple Sumrs had said and thinking about it in depth, it was downright chilling.
“I didn’t expect that you would dismiss the private tutor,” said Purple Sumrs. “But I guess dismissing her wasn’t really your intention, was it?”
Norman remained silent, looking at Purple Sumrs in front of him with a complex expression.
Since she had walked into this room, she had taken control of the situation. His yelling, anger, shock—all his emotions were within her expectations, which is why she remained calm…
Norman’s heart felt heavy, as if a huge stone was pressing on his chest, suffocating him.
Dismissing the private tutor was indeed his son’s suggestion…
“She teaches stuff I already know, and I don’t like her forcing to eat vegetable salad, I prefer potato salad,” his son had said to him.
He had laughed and replied, “Teachers teach you not to be picky with food.”
Even so, he still went along with his son’s wishes and dismissed the private tutor.
So, what was really going on?… Was he being manipulated by his own eight-year-old son?
Norman tugged at the corner of his mouth, his expression rather unpleasant.
Purple Sumrs said, “I never spoke up because there was no evidence. I think that must also be Ms. Montgory’s concern. She can’t bring herself to say it; she can’t even believe it herself… afraid to wrong the child, and afraid to anger you, so she endures in fear.”
“All of this… is nothing but your speculation,” Norman said, his voice hoarse and his whole being feeling bewildered, “…It might not be true.”
Purple Sumrs was silent for a mont, then replied, “Actually, getting evidence is simple. I have a hundred ways I could test for it, but I don’t want to do that. Mr. Douglas, I only investigate cases; I can’t sentence an eight-year-old child. How to raise your child is your responsibility as a father, and you have more authority on that matter than anyone.”
Their conversation ended there.
anwhile, Marcel Jefferson and the female lawyer brought by Norman had been arguing for a long ti, unable to reach an agreent, neither willing to give in.
If they could not co to terms, this divorce case was bound to go to court for a further dispute.
Before leaving, Purple Sumrs said to Norman, “I have a good friend who has often been invited to your ho recently. If Young Master Douglas invites her again, I sincerely hope you will step in and refuse. Young Master Douglas should be looking for a new mother, and I really don’t want to see my good friend beco one of the candidates.”
Upon hearing this, Norman knew Purple Sumrs was talking about Jane McCain.
He remained silent, keeping the matter in mind…
