Chapter 58
Chapter 59 A Threat and a Reprieve
Tatiana was trembling violently, her pale lips quivering as she spoke, “I… I didn’t… It hurts…
Chandler shot to his feet, trying to pull Tatiana back. “Jasper! Let go! Can’t you see she’s in pain p>
Only then did Jasper spare him a glance, his voice thin and cold. “Chandler, do you have any idea what the consequences are for hiding someone who belongs to me p>
Chandler’s face was tense. “You’re guilty of false imprisonment and intentional assault! Tatiana is a person, not a tool for you to control p>
Jasper sneered. “What, you’re going to sue me? You can try p>
Try?
How could he?
Even if he filed a lawsuit, the Jackson family had a thousand ways to ensure Jasper was never affected.
No, the lawsuit probably wouldn’t even be accepted.
The Jackson family’s ability to bend the rules was no joke.
In the moment Chandler hesitated, Jasper yanked Tatiana away, completely ignoring her injured feet.
She stumbled after him, her hands and feet throbbing. Fear overrode the pain.
Once she was taken back, she would never have a second chance to run. She would die on that operating table!
Seeing her being dragged away, Chandler snapped back to his senses and shouted, “It’s true I can’t do anything to you, but does Gordon know what you’ve done? Do you think he’ll forgive you for sending an innocent person to that rehab center p>
Jasper stopped, his eyes narrowing, a dangerous glint within them. “Chandler, are you threatening me p>
“It’s not a threat. Since you’re divorcing Tatiana, you have no right to control her. Let her go p>
Tatiana’s heart trembled. She slowly looked up, her voice hoarse. “Jasper, let me go, please? I’ll never… appear in front of you again. I’ll never be an eyesore. I’ll get rid of the child. I won’t bring you any shame. Just let me go, please p>
Chandler was stunned by her words. His gaze dropped to her stomach. She was pregnant?
Jasper turned his head to look at her, a slow, cruel smile spreading across his lips. “Tatiana, you seem to forget, you have never had a choice. From the moment you schemed to get me, you should have expected this outcome. When people do wrong, they have to take responsibility p>
Her breath hitched. A thousand words welled up in her throat, only to die as a sob.
I didn’t do it. I loved him so much, but I never would have used such a dirty trick to get him.

Jasper saw her speechless expression, sneered, and dragged her away.
Chandler tried to chase them but was blocked by bodyguards. He could only watch, helpless, as Tatiana
was taken.
Long after Jasper’s men were gone, he stood there, stunned, until Molly reached out and touched his arm. “Are you okay p>
He turned his head stiffly. The look in his eyes made Molly’s skin crawl.
‘Molly. Was that you p>
A chill went down Molly’s spine. She swallowed. “I… I just made a phone call p>
The next second, he shoved her hard, sending her sprawling to the floor.
Ow p>
‘Molly! What right do you have to interfere in my life? As of now, you’re fired p>
Molly panicked. “Chandler! You can’t do this! I was doing it for your own good p>
‘Get out p>
He ignored their past relationship, threw her out, and slammed the door. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on.net
Chandler wiped his face, a thick wave of frustration rising in his chest. Four years ago, he had been a coward, unable to protect her. Was he going to be one again?
He wouldn’t accept it.
He took out his phone, had someone find Gordon’s number, and made the call.
The moment it connected, he put everything on the line.
Tatiana was dragged back to the hospital.
This time, to prevent her from running, she was escorted by bodyguards the entire way. There was no possibility of escape.
Just as the operating room doors were about to close, Jasper’s phone rang.
He answered it. The roar that came from the other end made even the bodyguards flinch.
They didn’t know what was said, but Jasper’s expression grew darker and darker. His grip on the phone tightened, as if he were holding back an explosion, but in the end, he relented.
“Fine p>
After hanging up, he called a halt to the impending surgery.
Tatiana, having escaped her fate, was completely drenched in sweat.
Under the intense emotional strain, she began to cough violently, the hacking sounds bursting from her throat.
A doctor nearby noticed her cough didn’t sound right, as if there were something wrong with her lungs. He was about to speak up, but seeing Jasper’s thunderous expression, he swallowed his words.
Jasper clearly didn’t care about this woman. Saying anything would be useless and would only bring trouble on himself.
As expected, Jasper paid no attention to her coughing. He just said, “Take her away p>
She was moved again, just like a toy.
This time, they went straight to the old mansion.
Gordon was pacing anxiously, glancing up at the door every few seconds, completely unable to calm down.
He was muttering, “How dare that brat hide something this huge from me! If anything happens to my little great–grandson, I’ll skin him alive p>
The butler stood to the side, smiling. “Congratulations, sir p>
