Chapter 79 irrelevant Outsiders
Chapter 79: Irrelevant Outsiders
The word “irrelevant” was so poignant that it made Jennifer’s face pale. The original sadness and hurt at the moment were getting worse.
She did not matter?
In his heart, is she only deserving of this word?
In the past four years, was he not moved by her feelings even a little bit?
“Who is irrelevant? How can you say that?”
Mrs. Smith became worried. “Don’t you have any feelings for Jennifer?”
Hearing this, Mark’s already impatient face sank, adding a touch of coldness to the bottom of his
wavy eyes.
Seeing his deep eyes narrow slightly as he looked at Mrs. Smith, his voice grew much colder. “Mom, do you know what you’re talking about?”
Mrs. Smith’s heart trembled, and Jennifer immediately felt bad and rushed to say, “Mark, Auntie… Auntie, he doesn’t mean that. He means that… we… Aren’t we friends?”
Jennifer looked at Mark with a hopeful face, but the implied love in her eyes could not be hidden.
Though she had always been very decent in front of Mark over the years, not daring to do anything too obviously out of line, she did not believe that he was really oblivious to her feelings for him.
Mark turned to her, his caustic expression showing no sign of softening. “So what? Did I have the PR department clarify something wrong?”
He asked rhetorically, and Jennifer knew that what little patience he had left was running out.
She opened her mouth to speak but didn’t know where to begin.
“But…”
“It was because you said you and Mae weren’t divorced that Jennifer was called a mistress!”
Mrs. Smith was furious. “It’s been four years, why haven’t you signed with Mae yet?”
Speaking of which, Mrs. Smith felt frustrated. If it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have been shamed in public that day, allowing that little bitch Mae to be so arrogantly pleased.
The patience in Mark’s eyes was completely exhausted, and a biting coldness broke out. “That’s my business, Mom. You should not mind it too much.”
He remembered the video on the Internet that day, the frigidness in his eyes thickened even more. “Even if Jennifer was really scrutinized as a mistress, it was you, Mom, who brought it to her.”
Hearing Mark’s determination and ruthlessness to the point where he didn’t care about her being humiliated, Jennifer’s face turned even whiter. Some water mist built up in her already reddened eyes.
“Auntie, Mark, I… suddenly remembered I have to catch an announcement later. I’ll go back first.”
She quickly picked up the bag on the sofa. “I… I have to go.”
“Jennifer! Jennifer!”

Chapter 79 Irrelevant Outsiders
Seeing that she couldn’t call out to Jennifer, Mrs. Smith hurriedly called out to the housekeeper to send a driver to send her away. She then looked at Mark, who was always expressionless. She wanted to say something but was afraid of really upsetting his bad–tempered son. She could only sigh and soften her tone in the end.
“Do you want Jennifer to be a widow for the rest of her life?”
Mark may not have had much experience in relationships, but that did not mean he was so ignorant that he could not hear what his mother was thinking at that moment
Suppressing the impatience in his eyes, he looked at Mrs. Smith and said:
“I never asked her to be a widow. She can marry whenever she wants. As for the child in her womb, I only need her to give birth properly. If she wants to raise it, then give it to her. If she doesn’t want to, then let the child stay in our family. We will raise the child for life. In short, the Smith family won’t treat her badly.”
After hearing that, Mrs. Rebecca knew what Mark meant. He really didn’t have the slightest intention of marrying Jennifer, and immediately became even more anxious.
“But… but Jennifer she…”
“And…”
Mark impatiently interrupted Mrs. Smith’s words. “Mom, since you are so close to her, then you will be the one to tell her this. She better not think about taking Mae’s position.”
Seeing him say it so openly, Mrs. Smith froze for a moment. Her face was a little unsettled.
Although her son hadn’t called her by name, she felt that his words were not only telling her to talk to Jennifer but also telling her not to get any ideas.
“It’s hard to believe that you really can’t let go of Mae. Do you still want to keep Mae as your wife for the rest of your life?”
Speaking of which, Mrs. Smith suddenly didn’t know what she was remembering and laughed a little. “The way I saw her that day. She was really itching to divorce you.”
She saw that Mark’s face had obviously sunk a little more than before.
Her eyes lit up for a moment and she said with more force. “The ten billion dollars you had back then didn’t satisfy her appetite. She wanted to split hundreds of billions with you… Mark, she’s that kind of woman. Do you still really want someone like her?”
Seeing her son’s increasingly sullen face, Mrs. Smith still wore a bright expression.
She just wanted her stupid son to realize what kind of person that little bitch Mae really was.
Back then, she could easily climb into her son’s bed to marry into the rich family, so there was nothing else she couldn’t do.
“Enough.”
Mark interrupted Mrs. Smith impatiently. The irritation under his eyes turned biting cold, startling her mother.
She had always known that this son of hers wasn’t the type of child who would casually listen to his mother, and sometimes even she as a mother had to look at his face with caution.

Therefore, when she saw that her son’s face had darkened, she didn’t dare to provoke him and reluctantly closed her mouth.
“Alright, I won’t say it anymore. Just think about it yourself.”
Originally, she wanted to add a sentence to let him consider Jennifer. If the two of them got married, the child could still be raised under his name. Wouldn’t it be killing two birds with one stone?
But looking at her son’s face again, Mrs. Smith finally decided to shut up.
Mark lowered his face. “If there’s nothing else, I’m going back first.”
“Where are you going back to?”
Mrs. Smith suddenly remembered something the moment he turned around. Her eyes were shining incredulously as she asked:
“You said you lived elsewhere during this time. It wouldn’t have been in your marital house, would it?”
Remembering her son’s unmoving and defensive attitude when he mentioned Mae just now, Mrs. Smith felt that she had guessed right, and the disbelief in her eyes grew stronger.
“Don’t tell me you’re really in love with Mae.”
Mrs. Smith’s voice increased subconsciously. How could she allow that arrogant little bitch to return to the Smith family?
In the past, it was just a matter of her son not being in love with this woman, but once he was in love and began to support her, would there still be a place for her in the Smith family?
Mae, that little bitch, would not be able to take advantage of the opportunity to climb on top of her head.
Mark’s handsome yet impatient face was slightly stunned by his mother’s words. Then, his eyebrows. knitted. “You’re thinking too much.”
With that, he took big steps out the door and left the Smith family mansion.
When he returned to the Hartwell Courtyard, the irritation in his heart still hadn’t dissipated. His mind kept circling back to what her mother had said. His heart was feeling strangely conflicted.
