Chapter 797 A Collection of Peculiar Jealousy

Brian nodded and confidently promised, "Terence, you have nothing to worry about. We just need to cooperate with their investigation. But let me reassure you, it wouldn't be easy for them to find out anything that they don't need to know."

"Thank you, you've worked hard."

Terence said while he leaned on the back of the chair.

Brian chuckled as a response. "Anytime. You don't need to be so polite with me. Besides, I'll get my bonus by the end of the year!"

Terence glanced at him and smiled. "You know so much about money and nothing but money. Did you only work with me because you liked my money?"

Brian laughed once again before saying, "I wouldn't deny it. You're right. If I hadn't been interested in your identity, I wouldn't have given up studying abroad and followed you."

Looking at his deep and bright eyes, Brian was stunned for a while and then faked a cough to cover his feelings. "But then again, Terence, you'd better tell your father that someone must take responsibility for this.

If this escalated to something that we wouldn't be able to handle, I'm afraid that Rhys has to be responsible for it. You also have to be prepared."

Terence's smile faded. Of course, he perfectly knew that. How could he not? When his familial responsibilities was on the verge of interfering with their business?

But Marcus was already in jail. If anything happened to Rhys, Terence was worried that Edmund wouldn't be able to take it.

"I know. Go ahead with your work. Call me if anything out of the ordinary happens,"

Terence thoughtfully said.

Brian nodded, took one more look at him before leaving the room.

When he passed by the living room, he saw Carla and Carol watching a movie.

Brian glanced at Carla, gently nodded, and went straight for the door.

Carla took a sip of the hot milk in front of her and looked at Brian who was leaving through the door. She then looked upstairs where Terence was, even though she couldn't really see him from where she was sitting.

Since Carol had mentioned it to her, she had been feeling that there must be something between the two men as if they were having an affair behind her back.

Although she believed that Terence was completely straight, Brian also looked masculine and didn't act feminine at all. Perhaps she just hadn't seen his feminine side or maybe, not all homosexual men were girlish.

"Ma'am,

both entered the bedroom.

Terence's body stiffened when he heard what she said. He immediately turned to her with eyes that could freeze the entire planet.

"What did you just say? Say it again!"

Carla laughed, walked past him, and went to their bed.

However, she was suddenly carried by Terence. Of course, he was still careful to avoid her belly. He held her waist with one hand and pulled her back into his arms very tightly.

"Carla Ji, do you want me to teach you a lesson? How dare you talk to me like that? Do you really think that I won't do anything to you?"

Carla gazed at him with her bright eyes and held back her laughter. She continued to tease him. "I didn't say anything wrong. If we really have a son, I'll definitely love him, just like you love Sally!

Don't the elders say that a daughter is her father's previous lover, and a son is her mother's lover?"

Terence's anger gradually faded away. He thought for a while but resolutely stated, "No way. Even if we have a son, you can't like him more than you love me."

"Really? Terence, are you jealous of your own unborn son?" Carla bit her lips and asked with a glare.

"Absolutely! Even though we have a son, I'm the only man that you should love in this whole world." Terence declared.

Just like him, no matter how much he loved their daughter, he still loved Carla the most in his heart.

Carla cleared her throat. Even though she knew they were just joking, it suddenly seemed all too real for her. She pondered to herself, 'Oh, if baby turns out to be a boy, Terence might always be jealous of him.'
