Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO’s Plaything - Chapter 789
Michael got up from the bed and slowly walked over to Greta. The man gave her no chance to escape at all. Even though he was distended and his build could be said to be the shortest in the Petersson family, that didn’t mean he was shorter than Greta.
“Do you think I’m stupid? I know what’s mine, and what’s not.” Michael said quietly.
He grabbed Greta’s chin and moved it left and right, “You’ve always told me that Oscar is Peter’s real son, his flesh and blood. But I won’t believe it until we do a DNA test.”
Greta was the only woman he really knew. Even Michael knew Greta better than the back of his hand. After having been in a relationship for 10 years, despite the on and off, Michael was very well-acquainted with Greta, down to the small details about her.
Like… how she couldn’t stop wetting her lower lip when she was nervous. How her body shook violently when she was lying… Or how can she not see his eyes when she’s lying. And many others. Michael knew her by heart.
“Even though you are Oscar’s real father, I’m sure he won’t think of you as such. Because Peter is so much more promising as a father than you can ever be.” Greta replied.
The corners of Michael’s lips lifted upwards, “Are you sure? Anyway, you have no right to say that. If Oscar is really my biological son, I will not treat him arbitrarily. Of course one day the Petersson Communication will fall into his hands again.”
“For now, if he is really my child, I will treat him well and give him a promising job at the company.” Michael continued.
After saying that, he let go of his hand on Greta’s chin and wanted to walk out of the woman’s bedroom. But before he could really touch the doorknob and leave the woman alone, Greta grabbed Michael’s wrist.
She was running to Michael like a rocket, and her heart was already beating so fast that her ears could hear the sound of it beating.
If Michael told Peter that Oscar wasn’t his son, Greta couldn’t imagine the consequences.
The Petersson family would never forgive for what she did with Michael decades ago. They all would surely humiliate Greta and most importantly, they would pity Peter for always treating her well.
Then, everything Greta had painstakingly fought for would definitely be taken away. There would be nothing left for her but feelings of regret and sadness.
Even though Peter loved Greta very much, even saying that he was willing to die for that woman, if he knew what Greta had been doing behind his back, he would throw her away.
Having such thoughts made Greta imagine what would happen in the future. Because to be honest, she doesn’t have a single penny that comes from her hard work. All the wealth that she owns belongs to Peter.
Greta also knew that Oscar wouldn’t want to take her anymore. She also has no relatives she can turn to for help. If Greta wasn’t allowed to stay in the family, she’d have no one else.
After living for decades without having to be confused about what she would eat tomorrow or what she should do for a living, Greta didn’t want to fall into poverty because of her stupid actions!
“Michael, please, help me,” Greta pleaded in a pitiful voice, “Please don’t tell Peter about this. If this matter is found out by others, I can’t live in this house anymore! Not just that, Oscar would definitely be considered an illegitimate child, and my son’s reputation would definitely be tarnished. Do you have the heart to see him being treated like that by other people and his own family?”
If Oscar finds out Peter is not his real father, Greta can be sure that she’s better off killing herself! All happiness, wealth, and everything will be taken away from her.
Hearing Greta whimper made Michael dumbfounded. The man frowned and looked at his ex-lover with confused eyes.
“If Oscar is really my biological son, I won’t let other people hurt him. Besides, I won’t give him a miserable life. I also will train him to be a strong man!”
“Whatever, it’s up to you what you want to do. Anyway you can’t tell the others about this matter! If Oscar finds out about this, I’m afraid he’ll be in serious shock and might fall ill. I’ll do anything for you, as long as you keep your mouth shut! I will do anything!”
Again, for the umpteenth time today, Michael was taken aback by Greta’s words. Then his expression changed to smooth after seeing the confused look on his ex-lover’s face.
After a long time Greta was no longer in his arms, basking in wealth and pampered by Peter, she finally came to him and begged for his help again. Ah, things like this reminded him of their relationship several decades ago.
Greta actually still has a place in Michael’s empty heart. Until then, her name is still engraved in his heart. Even though Michael knew that she didn’t really love him, and that she only loved his money.
Besides, if Greta and Michael could continue to work together like this, Michael would be even more successful in the future!
Having such thoughts made Michael smile widely. He let go of Greta’s hand on his wrist, and touched her chin again.
“I know. I know that you can really count on me for things like this. I also know that you are not a stupid woman,” Michael said softly while stroking Greta’s cheek. “Follow all my words and I guarantee your life will be fine. Oscar is my son, so you can sit quietly. How could I hurt my own child?”
Hearing Michael’s words made Greta feel relieved. The woman nodded her head slowly and tried to believe what she just heard.
At the same time, Oscar stood frozen in front of Greta’s bedroom door. Of course he listened to all the conversations between Greta and Michael from start to finish.. Their voices were neither soft nor too loud, allowing the man to hear everything clearly.
