Chapter 1051

Jonah couldn’t believe Rebecca had actually escaped.
A bitter laugh left his lips.
“Jonah, let’s head back to the office and sort this out,” Justin said.
“Okay,” Jonah replied.
The crowd of reporters pressed in relentlessly. “Mr. Pilsner, please say something! Mr. Pilsner!”
Surrounded by Justin and the security team, Jonah made his way to the door. “I have nothing to say. Pilsner Group’s lawyers will handle this matter,” he stated. Once outside, Jonah climbed into his luxury car and sped off.
As soon as Jonah and Justin returned to the company, Jeremy rushed over.
“Mr. Pilsner, the reporters have already exposed the incident at the club. Everyone knows about your scandalous involvement with Rebecca!”
Justin slammed his hand on the table. “How did the news spread so fast? Jonah, what exactly is your relationship with Rebecca?
“Jonah, please don’t tell me you actually had an affair with her. Your wedding to Ms. Hailey is right around the corner, and she’s pregnant with your child. You can’t be fooling around behind her back!”
In the past, Justin hadn’t been fond of Hailey, but now he was firmly on her side.
Jonah shot him a glance. “Do you really think something happened between me and Rebecca?”
“I didn’t mean to sound like that! But seriously, what’s the deal with you two?”
“Nothing happened. She arrived pretending to bring some soup. Out of nowhere, she started undressing to seduce me. When I didn’t take the bait, she began hurting herself and accused me of trying to assault her!”
“Damn!” Justin snapped, his voice tinged with anger.
“Rebecca really has some nerve. I can’t believe she actually targeted you like this.”
“She knew the reporters were in the club,” Jonah explained. “She deliberately staged the whole scene to throw me into the spotlight.”
“Rebecca is downright malicious!” Jeremy chimed in. “But Mr. Pilsner, the situation is already public. If we don’t handle it properly, Pilsner. Group stock could crash
tomorrow. Billions in market value
could disappear in an instant.”
“Have the legal team make the necessary preparations,” Jonah instructed. “I’m taking Rebecca to court.”
“Understood. I’ll make sure it’s taken care of immediately,” Jeremy said.
After the door shut, Justin spoke up. “Jonah, we should probably keep this from Ms. Hailey for the time being. We don’t need to stress her out or put any strain on the pregnancy
Jonah nodded in agreement. He didn’t want Hailey to be troubled either.
Just then, a soft, melodic ringtone rang out. Jonah glanced at his phone and saw it was Hailey calling.
He put a finger to his lips and answered the phone. “Hey, honey.”
Upon hearing Jonah’s affectionate tone, Justin sank into the couch and took a sip of his coffee.
“Honey, aren’t you asleep yet?” Jonah asked again.
At the villa, Hailey had just wrapped up her design work and taken a bath when she noticed Jonah still hadn’t come home. Glancing at the clock, she saw it was already 9:00 pm.
He rarely stayed out this late, so she decided to call him.
While lying in bed, she gripped her phone tightly in her hand. “Mr. Pilsner, are your business meetings still not finished? It’s already 9:00 pm. When will you be home?”
Jonah’s spirits lifted at the sound of her soft, almost flirtatious tone.
To be honest, he hadn’t been thinking much about Rebecca, but being stuck with that difficult woman had definitely put him in a bad mood.
“Honey, I may have to work late tonight,” Jonah responded, his fingers wrapped around his phone.
“What? Does that mean you’re not coming home tonight?” Hailey asked.
Jonah knew he had to stay at the office to handle Rebecca’s situation. “Honey, I
won’t be able to make it back. You should head to bed soon.”
A slight frown crossed Hailey’s face. “Mr. Pilsner, there’s plenty of money to go around. You’re not the only one looking after the family. I can pitch in too, so you don’t have to burn yourself out.”
