Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us!

Jane took a good look at the gifts, but she then realized that her father was nowhere to be seen. She wanted to talk to him about the wedding, so she headed to the study to look for him. But then, she was surprised when she found Bradley there with a glum look on his face.

"Why didn't you come over to take a look at all the things that the Murrays have brought over? They've given us a lot of amazing stuff," Jane uttered as she sat herself down opposite her father in the study. Bradley let out a long sigh. "Do you know why they're in such a rush to get married, Jane?"

"I know that Jason's grandmother is about to pass away. But that makes sense, doesn't it, Dad? Isn't it better for me to get married to him sooner, anyway? I'll become an actual member of the Murray Family after that; it's going to benefit our family as well," she replied.

Bradley shook his head. "I feel like there's something odd about this issue. I think we should dig around a little just to make sure of their intentions. The Murrays were simply acting too suspiciously now." Jane gave his words some thought. "Now that you mention it, I do feel like they were acting a little too politely earlier. Selena barely paid any attention to me when I went over to their place, and she even brought up our old grudges. Yet, she was extremely nice to me when she visited earlier," she explained.

"This is just too peculiar. I'll have to ask around to see if I can get any information," he muttered.

Soon enough, the news of Jerry writing his will spread across the whole town. Jerry was an old man, and his wife was nearing the end of her life, so it made sense that he would decide to write his will at a time like that. In the past, he had listed Jason as the sole receiver of all of the property and shares that he owned.

However, things were rather

different now that he had another granddaughter, This news became the talk of the town. Everyone heard that Jerry was planning to leave half of the Murray Group's shares to Selenal This was a justifiable decision-, for Selena was Pierre's wife, and the couple already had three businesses that were listed under their names. Furthermore, Jerry wanted to compensate for all that he had failed to do for his own daughter. Thus, this news generated huge waves of discussion amongst the people.

Bradley had been pacing back and forth in his study, and Jane barged into the room the moment she heard the news. "Something bad has happened, Dad!"

"I know. I just heard," he mumbled.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Jane held her head in her hands.

"This is just absurd! How could Jerry

decide to leave his shares for Selena? What does Jason even mean to him? Jason is his sole biological grandson! How could he not leave the company to Jason?!" Jason had been the only heir to the business all these years; no one would have expected someone else to pop up out of nowhere and snatch Murray Group away from him.

"It's not that surprising, is it? Selena and Pierre are an influential couple, and Pierre's grandfather is Admiral Evan Moody. The Murray Group is going to benefit if it goes to them." Bradley slammed his palm against the table as he sat down on the couch.

"But what's going to become of me

after I get married to him? If all

Jason gets are some pitiful shares, he'd be nothing more than a mere shareholder. Judging by the sort of person Selena is, I don't think she's going to take any care of her cousin. She might even kick him out of the company. What's going to happen to Jason and me then? How are we going to survive?" Jane was worried for her own future.

Getting married to Jason used to be every teen girl's dream, but it wasn't just because Jason was an attractive and charming man. More importantly, he used to be the sole heir of the Murray Group! After all, no one would want to get married to a handsome man if his pockets were empty, right?

"I don't want to live such a sad life, Daddy! Selena is going to laugh at me forever. Oh! I understand now. No wonder she was so nice to me! She was trying to make sure that I would get married to Jason, just so that she would be able to torture me for the rest of my life!" Jane began to cry as she spoke.

"They were probably in such a rush to get married, also because they were worried that we would call the marriage off after we heard about the contents of Jerry's will. I'm sure they were planning to reveal the contents of the will only after your wedding ceremony was over," he said.
