Chapter 180
Can’t take Ethan away, leave Jacob behind?
Maureen knew this was a rare opportunity; if they delayed, she might not be able to take Ethan away later.
It seems I’ll have to take Ethan away first; Sean is mistaken, and once he knows it’s not his child, he’ll surely let him go.
Okay, I’ll remind him more now.
Katherine said.
At Seaside Villa, Katherine was already tired of saying it’s not your
son.
She could only try a different way: “Sean, I’ve only slept with one man in my life, and that man definitely wasn’t you.”
Jacob hadn’t been to kindergarten for two days, and Sean stayed home with him while working.
Outside, Katherine was making a huge fuss, but Sean ignored her at first.
Until he heard she threatened to go find Grandpa Albert.
Only then did Sean let her in and agree to a paternity test.
Katherine hugged Jacob, sobbing loudly: “Sweetie, did it scare you?”
E
Jacob had to admit–Aunt Katherine might suck at everything else, but her acting rocked,

He patted Katherine’s shoulder: “Mommy, don’t cry, be good.”
Sean watched them, utterly convinced this kid was his son.

The paternity test would take four or five days, so Jacob had to stay put.
“Sean, you better keep your promise, or I’ll get Grandpa Albert to set things straight.”
Katherine now knew even Karaville’s golden boy feared one person: Albert.
And unluckily for Sean, Albert adored her.
Sean snapped: “Got it. Now get out.”
Katherine hugged Jacob one last time, checking Sean hadn’t hurt him before leaving.
She immediately called Maureen after stepping out.
Maureen got the message and finally relaxed.
Now they just had to wait till tomorrow to leave.
Unbeknownst to her, Geoffrey was currently having someone repurchase the Ramirez ancestral home from Andrea and overseeing the reconstruction of Ramirez Headquarters.
He awaited the completion of all this to surprise her.
Geoffrey even envisioned having another child with Maureen to live a peaceful life.
Yet while one planned for the future, the other planned an escape.
Inside the bedroom.

Maureen packed only a simple bag containing the dolls Ethan and Jacob adored.
She left the gifts Geoffrey bought untouched and didn’t take them.
She called her overseas assistant: “What’s the current balance in the company account?”
“Eight billion.”
That much…
Maureen was stunned.
“Transfer everything to a single account.”
She intended to return all the money to Geoffrey–both to silence him and as–payment for borrowing his sperm.
As if buying it outright.
Maureen entrusted the entire sum to Thomas again.
Thomas was astounded: “Reenie, where on earth did you get this much money?”
“Just some small business ventures. Sorry to trouble you with the delivery,” Maureen paused, then added, “But this time, please draft an agreement stating the return of all dowry Geoffrey ever gave the Ramirez family. We’ll be settled with no further debts.”
“But would Geoffrey even sign it?”
“He can sign it or not, that’s his call. Anyway, I owe him nothing now.”
Thomas noticed Maureen spoke about Geoffrey with no emotional undertones, completely different from before,

“Alright.
I’ll handle it. When should I give this to him?”
Maureen paused. “Two weeks from now.”
She needed to ensure Jacob would leave with her.
“Got it.”
Meanwhile, at the High–End Club.
Geoffrey sat at the head of the table, his friend Larry beside him.
Larry slid the property contract forward. “If I recall right, this is the Ramirez ancestral home?”
Wayne had brought over the Ramirez estate documents earlier, which Larry spotted.
“What’s the issue?”
Geoffrey countered.
“Been too busy for gatherings lately. Wouldn’t be for Maureen, would it?”
Larry studied him intently.
It struck him how unusually invested Geoffrey seemed in someone.
