Chapter 276: Don’t Lie Harvey Jones!
A few days later.
Nathaniel Jones called his son Walter Jones and his grandson Harvey. The three of them, accompanied by Martha, sat in the living room.
The living room, which usually felt warm, suddenly became cold. None of them said anything, but the tension was clearly visible in their looks at Nathaniel Jones.
Nathaniel’s sharp gaze was fixed on his grandson, who sat across from him. He was bewildered by all the news from outside. How could Harvey be in a relationship with Serena Philips?
Nathaniel still vividly remembered asking Harvey to bring his girlfriend on his birthday. Still, Harvey replied that he didn’t have one and didn’t even have female friends.
He also recalled that Serena had been pursuing Sawyer a few months ago; she even asked James to approach him to arrange a marriage with Sawyer.
With all the news out there, Nathaniel suddenly had many questions in his mind: Why did the news suddenly report that Harvey and Serena were engaged? Did the journalist only want to spread rumors?
He believed it was just gossip and that the news would fade away. However, his guess was unfounded; this morning, his grandson issued a press release announcing that he and Serena were engaged and would be married on Valentine’s Day.
Thinking about Harvey got him a headache; summoning Harvey here only worsened his headache. After a long silence, Nathaniel warned him again:
"Harvey Jones! Don’t make statements to worsen the situation. Serena is not just any woman you can play with! She is James’ granddaughter!" His voice turned cold and sharp. It was hard for him to believe it, even though Harvey had admitted it a few times.
Sitting next to Nathaniel, Martha shared similar concerns with him. She felt compelled to voice her thoughts.
