Chapter 1431
While throwing Tiffany's heavy luggage into the living room, Sophia coldly stared at the dissatisfied Tiffany as she roared in fury, “You should hurry up and leave now. If everything goes well, Bailey is going to hold another board meeting to dismiss you once again. You should leave now; otherwise, you might not make it on time.”
It's Bailey, that b*stard, again! It appeared that Bailey had long known about that incident, so he merely played along with Cooper and Sophia to distract Tiffany's attention. That jerk. All he does is take advantage of the situation for his own benefits!
Tiffany left in a huff, so Sophia took the opportunity and threw all her luggage out of the house. Tiffany's men then took the luggage away.
The nanny was carrying Tiffany and Jordan's son in her arms as she asked, “What do we do about him?”
Tiffany cast a glance at the son, as if she was able to see Jordan's disgusting face through him. Jordan's child! Even looking at his face disgusts me! Even though this child was also Tiffany's son, she felt that his father was beyond disgusting.
She found the fact of her actually having Jordan's son extremely unbearable, which made her unable to even look at the child—it disgusted her whenever she set her eyes on him.
It might have been part of Jordan's scheme to use the child to lay his hands on the Adams Family's fortune.
It made her feel as if she had been raped by Jordan, causing her to transfer all her hatred toward him to the child.
She muttered through greeting teeth. “Throw him away!"
The nanny was hesitant as the child was, after all, a descendant of the Adams Family.
The child, who might have sensed his upcoming fate, struggled and cried in the nanny’s arm. His miserable cries annoyed Tiffany even more, causing her to grab the child from the nanny’s arm and throw him into the trash can without even giving him a glance.
The child was thrown into the trash can with a thud. Tiffany then hurried over to the Adams Group in an attempt to stop Bailey. That wretched man!
After Tiffany had left, Sophia, who seemed to hear a child's cries coming from outside her house, went outside to check out the sound, only to find a tiny flesh ball, which was red in color due to the freezing temperature outside, in the trash can. Subconsciously, she picked the child up.
Oh, my! Such a scumbag! She actually abandoned her own child!
Though she had no idea what to do now, she knew that she could not leave the child in the trash can, so she took him back home.
She kept the child in the house, but she did not know what to do with him. After all, the child was Jordan and Tiffany's son, so keeping him around would be a threat. However, the child was innocent —they should not drag a child into the adults’ matters.
After some contemplation, she informed Lucy so that the latter could come to get the child.
Soon, Harry arrived to check out the child. He said that Dana had asked him to come and take a look at the child.
Although Dana's gigantic penis was completely functional, he was infertile, so he and Lucy could not have a child. Since the child's parents had abandoned him, they could adopt the baby.
It was Dana's plan to have Jordan's son call him “dad’!
The situation rendered Sophia speechless. Since Lucy and Dana had requested to adopt the child, she had no choice but to temporarily keep the child at home so that it would be convenient for them to come and pick the child up after some time.
Celine, who was quite fond of the child, would carry and feed him in her arms whenever she had free time.
This child was insignificant to Tiffany—she still had other ova, which allowed her to have other children whenever she wanted. In her eyes, the child was merely a product, which was why she found nothing regrettable in abandoning him. Therefore, she was determined to not raise Jordan's child.
She rushed to the Adams Group in a hurry and was informed that Bailey was indeed holding a board meeting. She then entered the VIP elevator, attempting to stop everything. However, just when the elevator had risen two floors up, the elevator suddenly stopped moving, and a strange fragrance suddenly entered the elevator, catching her off guard. She inhaled the fragrance and fainted.
Later, Tiffany was woken up by a bucket of cold water. When she regained consciousness, she found that she was tied to a chair with both her arms and legs bound, unable to move even a muscle. There was a person, who had a face mask on, pouring gasoline around her.
She was confined in a room. Opposite her was a window, and the view outside showed that it was already night time. It was extremely quiet around, so she figured that they were in a remote place. Amidst the darkness outside the open window stood a man. Although she could not clearly see, she knew that that man was Bailey.
She saw that there were plenty of flammable items in the room, and there was a person pouring gasoline around her, while Bailey was standing outside the window watching everything.
At that instant, she knew that her time was up, and she had nowhere to escape.
Ever since the beginning, Cooper had joined forces with Bailey to take her down.
She, on the other hand, had held on to her fantasy about Cooper, thinking that a child could keep him with her, but she ended up falling into their trap.
She stopped struggling and calmly asked Bailey, who was standing outside the window, “Are you going to burn me to death, just like how I burned your parents and family to death?”
Standing outside the window, Bailey seemed indifferent, as if he was emotionless, but the night breeze sent in his short reply. “Yes.”
It seemed like he had long known about the incident.
However, Tiffany seemed to not feel indignant or fear, as if she had long predicted this day.
On that day, Bailey's parents and brothers, all four of them, were trapped in the car when they were engulfed by the flames.
From the video, she saw the tragic scene of his family struggling in the fire and burning to death. The scene was still fresh in her memory till now.
“Hahaha!” She suddenly burst into laughter. “Looks like you have long known about it.”
She could have stopped Bailey from escaping back then, but she did not do so as she wanted to keep him alive, adopt him, and even legally acquire his parents and brothers’ inheritance. Unfortunately, she was wrong to have underestimated the ten-year-old kid at that time.
Facing the crazy Tiffany, Bailey was as impassive as ever; he was as cold as an emotionless iceberg amidst the darkness of the night.
After going through hell, he had become numb to everything, even though his heart was bleeding at that moment.
The scene of his parents and brothers’ tragic death had been torturing him almost every night. In his dreams, he saw himself helplessly standing in front of that ferocious fire.
He cried in despair until his voice became hoarse, but all he could do was to watch as his family was burned to death.
His family's hoarse and desperate screams were still vivid in his memories to this day.
Tiffany finally stopped laughing. Knowing that she would not be able to escape today, she felt lighthearted instead. When her eyes lay on the peculiar accessory on her wrist, she said to Bailey. “Give me my phone. I want to give Cooper a call before I die.”
Bailey did not reply to her, which probably meant that he had rejected her request.
Without pressing on, she burst into a guffaw again. “Hahaha! Cooper has long known that you were going to take action on me, right? You guys have had everything planned out and have been waiting for this day.”
He did not reply as well, so she assumed that he had acquiesced to her assumptions.
She continued to cackle, but her laughter gradually turned into cries.
She loved him so much, but in the end, she would die under his schemes.
However, she was well aware that she was the one who started scheming in the first place, so everything that happened now was what she deserved!
After laughing and crying, she calmed down a little. The gasoline had been poured around her, and there was a person sealing up the window and all the exits—it seemed like they planned to suffocate her to death before disposing of her body to get rid of the evidence. This way of dying was actually much better than what Bailey's parents had gone through years ago.
Bailey personally lit a fire and threw it into the room. A large fire instantly swallowed up the whole room, together with Tiffany in it.
Tiffany's maniacal laughter could be heard from the fire. “Hahaha! Bailey, pass on this message to Cooper—ask her daughter to go and perform a full-body checkup. There is something in her daughter's body that could threaten her life anytime, and the key is with me.”
