Chapter 10 Vicious Woman

"You... you..." Kane looked at the embarrassed woman and got too mad to speak.

Jo was a tough girl. Although her meetings with Lukas in the past year were few, she still smiled brilliantly in front of him.

The moment when he heard that Jo jumped into the river, his first response was that Lukas must have failed her. Unable to bear it, she jumped into the river.

Mila was upset to see a dumbfounded Kane.

Then, since she did this for the interests of the Jensen family, she no longer felt embarrassed.

To please the old man, she talked harshly.

"Kane, I know that it was all Joanna's fault. Lukas is so busy, and it has been just one year since they were engaged. Understandably, they rarely meet, but Joanna couldn't stand loneness and fool around. She hooked up with others, claimed that she was raped, and hoped that I could keep it a secret. Am I that kind of devious and immoral person?"

Kane said nothing, but his face turned paler and paler. Noticing the rage in him, Mila spoke quickly.

"Even though I'm Joanna's mother, I'm grateful for your kindness to our Bennett family all these years. So... I'm here to tell you about it in case Lukas got cuckolded without even knowing it. People would laugh at him, and the Jensen family would lose face!"

Slap!

Kane slapped the so-called 'ashamed' mother and flew into a rage.

"Mila, what is wrong with you?"

He helped the Bennett family for so many years because he was distressed to see Mila treating Jo like an animal. Therefore, he arranged the engagement before Jo came of age.

He knew that Mila was mercenary and short-sighted but hadn't expected her heart to be so venomous.

"She is your daughter!"

Every mother would be heartbroken to learn about her daughter's rape. What did Mila do?

Mila's mind went blank and her cheeks burned with pain.

She couldn't understand why Kane slapped her while she was all for the Jensen family's good.

Something was wrong here!

He was venting his anger!

Mila set her thinking straight and no longer felt aggrieved.

"Kane, you see, I've told Jo to stay out of my face for the rest of her life. Sam and I don't have such a daughter like her!"

"You... you..." Kane trembled with anger.

Jo!

He didn't believe that the girl could be so corrupt as described by Mila. Eight years ago, she risked her life to pull him out of a car about to explode. From then on, she grew up under his nose.

That kid was so kind-hearted, decisive, and positive, but her heart was incredibly soft...

To soothe the kid, the old man claimed that he believed her. In fact, he didn't believe that someone shoved her off and thought it should be some other reason like Lukas did something wrong and angered her to jump into the river.

Unexpectedly... Kane took a deep breath.

With such a mother around her, Jo was still alive. He believed that God should have protected her.

"Get out!"

Alarmed by the uproar from the study, Kevin Jensen and others rushed over from the living room.

As Kane was covering his chest, Kevin and others changed countenance.

"Dad!"

"What did you tell my grandpa?" Lukas turned around and glared at the dumbfounded Mila.

Mila opened her mouth, but Kane's snarl came from behind.

"Mila, if you dare to mention a word about our conversation in the study, I swear... you, Sam, and Howard Bennett will be living in hell!"

Mila was scared out of her wits.

"I... I see. I... I won't say anything. I don't know anything." She nodded dully.

"Dad, dad... sit down." Kevin supported his father and turned to Lukas, "Lukas, get the medicine!"

"Also, I'm telling you. No matter what happens, Jo will be Lukas's wife!" Kane pushed Kevin away and panted.

Following his speech, he staggered and passed out.

As Kane fell ill, the Jensen family was thrown into confusion.
