Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 626

Chapter 626

I’m calling your son. If he doesn’t come to pick you up, I’ll report him to the police for abandoning his mother. That’ll land him in jail.

Gloria was shocked. Not knowing the law, she thought Aveline was telling the truth.

Besides, Aveline had managed to get Devin, Vincent, and Eileen locked up in a detention center for a few days before, so it was clear she really could do it.

If you dare call the police on my son, I’llI’ll beat you to death, you damn girl! I’m old anyway, I don’t have many days left.

Aveline ignored her and called Jacob.

Just then, a waiter came in with the food.

Aveline stood up and walked out to the balcony.

Jacob didn’t answer the phone, as if he had expected it was Aveline calling.

Or maybe he was worried his mother would tell him to come get her, and he didn’t want to.

Aveline sent him a text, [Jacob, if you don’t come and get your mom, I’m taking you to court for abandoning her.]

Jacob actually hadn’t left Mount Ardwood yet. Since it was lunchtime, he and his driver had found a restaurant to eat at.

He didn’t answer the call, just as Aveline had guessed, but when he saw the text, he had to take it seriously.

He replied: [You’re her granddaughter, can’t you take care of her? You have no grounds to sue me.]

Aveline: [Ask your lawyer. You’re not dead yet, am I the one who’s supposed to take care of your mother?]

Jacob was actually afraid Aveline would take him to court, especially since she was currently suing Eileen.

So he quickly called Courtney to tell her about it.

Courtney said, Can’t you use your brain for a second? Even if Aveline wants to sue you, she can’t do it immediately. It’ll take several days. The court will take some time to process it. By then, you’ll have picked the old woman up, and she won’t be able to sue you anymore.

In the meantime, having the old woman stuck at Aveline’s place will be enough to drive her

crazy.

It dawned on Jacob. Right, right, you’re right. Why didn’t I think of that?

Courtney: Ignore Aveline’s threat. Get back to the city.

I’ll head back after I finish eating.

After hanging up, Jacob replied to Aveline with renewed confidence, [The old woman can rest at your place for a few days. If you want to sue, go ahead.]

Aveline didn’t understand why Jacob and Courtney were so insistent on leaving the old woman with her. Was it just to annoy her?

She asked: [What do you really want?]

Jacob thought for a moment and replied, [I want the Eastwood Park project.]

Aveline now understood Jacob’s intention. She let out a cold snort, didn’t text him back, and returned to the private dining room.

She tossed her phone on the table in front of Gloria and said coldly, Grandma, Jacob is never getting that project.

You can stay here if you want. I’ll just get a room for you. But at the same time, I’ll have my lawyer sue Jacob for failing to provide for his mother.

It’s your call.

After she finished speaking, Aveline picked up her fork and started to eat.

Gloria was enjoying her meal when she heard what Aveline said. She was stunned, then glared at her.

You’re going to sue your own father? You really have no conscience.

Aveline said calmly, I don’t have a conscience. I’d be pretty happy to see you Suttons go to jail one after another.
