Chapter 17: A Ruthless Counterattack

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Cole Stone’s voice reverberated.

Everyone was stunned.

Hearing those words…

They were dumbfounded.

That’s right!

A mere medical report wasn’t enough evidence to suggest that Cole Stone was the biological father of her child!

Everyone started to doubt.

But Jane Smith did not panic.

She looked at Cole Stone with tears in her eyes. “Must you be so heartless?”

“Just what do you want?”

Cole Stone was getting impatient.

Jane Smith sobbed. “I just really want you to come back.”

“If you don’t believe that this child is yours, I can do an amniotic fluid puncture. It’s a paternity test!”

“But you know how big the risk is—”

Her voice grew weaker until it finally turned into a whimper.

“I—I would do anything to make you believe…”

She sounded fatigued.

A few pregnant women in the crowd started to sympathize with her.

She even dared to do an amniotic fluid puncture.

Wasn’t that enough proof to prove her sincerity towards Cole Stone?

Jane Smith reached for her bag.

“Cole Stone, take a look at this!”

Jane Smith took out her real estate certificate. “Even if you can’t come back on account of our child, don’t forget that our names are still written on the house you’ve bought yourself.”

“It is our home!”

The title deed read: Cole Stone and Jane Smith.

Cole Stone’s face darkened.

She even dared to talk about the house in front of him?

Everyone widened their eyes.

They saw the name in the property deed.

The crowd was thrown into an uproar.

A real estate certificate was even here!

This was definitive proof that they were husband and wife.

Everyone glared angrily at Cole Stone.

“Someone as ruthless as you will meet your end sooner or later.”

“Young man, don’t be so cruel to your wife…”

They condemned him.

A medical report truly wasn’t enough proof.

But the property deed with both their names written on it was irrefutable proof of their marriage.

Cole Stone, who was despised by everyone, was not in a hurry at all.

He looked at Jane Smith and said calmly, “In that case, what do you want me to do?”

A hint of smugness flashed across Jane Smith’s eyes.

And as if on a cue…

A voice rang out from the crowd. “Give your bank card to your wife and tell her the password!”

“Give her the greatest sense of security that a man could possibly give to his partner.”

“Men won’t do bad things if they don’t have the money.”

Two or three more voices resounded.

Cole Stone smirked.

He finally understood what was going on.

‘I see.’

No wonder!

The crowd, who usually only watched the show from afar, was so agitated today.

It turned out that Jane Smith had long prepared actors to stir up the pot!

After these few words from the actors.

The fury of the crowd was bolstered.

But what truly added fuel to the fire was Jane Smith’s following words.

Jane Smith bit her lips pitifully. “It’s okay! I just want you to come back. You can keep the bank card.”

This made the neutral members of the crowd sympathize with her.

“Give her the money!”

“Hand over the bank card!”

“Just give her your money already!”

To be able to help a woman deal with her scumbag husband early in the morning was a great thing for the crowd. Naturally, they would be even more enthusiastic in coming up with ideas to further condemn the scumbag husband.

Jane Smith stopped her performance.

She just stared quietly at the Cole Stone.

You could’ve just run away when you had the chance…

But now that there are so many people around here, I want to see how you can escape!

Cole Stone laughed once again.

He suddenly waved his hand and said, “Calm down, everyone…”

“Don’t be too anxious now.”

“I have something for everybody to hear!”

The crowd was astonished.

Jane Smith’s eyes widened and she felt a sense of foreboding.

What was he talking about?

Cole Stone took out his phone and smiled coldly.

“This is our chat history from a month ago. Everyone, listen carefully!”

The crowd fell silent.

They were waiting to see what Cole Stone was up to.

Jane Smith’s face turned pale and she tried to stop him.

She understood what Cole Stone was going to do!

She knew exactly what happened a month ago.

But the voices were already coming out of his phone.

“Jane, I’ve been running around for the whole night. I should be able to earn around 50 dollars for today. There’s a customer who lives on the 25th floor, and the building has no elevator. I’m so tired… Whew! It’s already 11.30 PM. I’m tired, but I’ll be able to buy you that bag soon.”

Cole Stone’s voice was gentle, but anyone could hear the weariness in it.

“Jane, isn’t there a New Year’s break at your school starting today? I’m about to go on a break from work too! With this, we can go back to see Dad and Mom during the New Year.”

“We haven’t seen each other this semester. I’ve been missing you a lot…”

Jane Smith’s face turned ashen.

She did not expect that Cole Stone would keep their chat records.

“Why didn’t you reply to me all night? Are you busy?”

That was Cole Stone’s final message.

Jane Smith finally replied. “I’m going to sleep. I’m tired.”

Her voice was colder than ice.

And there was no follow-up at all!

Cole Stone turned off his phone and looked at Jane Smith.

“You’re not going to tell me that I faked these voice messages, are you?”

Everyone could see that Cole Stone did play the message from their chat.

It could not be faked.

Jane Smith didn’t dare to refute.

She had no power to refute!

The surroundings became deathly silent.

The crowd was composed of adults and they immediately knew what was going on.

The two of them had not seen each other for an entire semester, so why was Jane Smith already one month into her pregnancy?

The answer was clear—she cheated on Cole Stone!

He was so devoted to you that he would deliver food to customers in the middle of the night to earn a few bucks for your bag.

And you actually had the audacity to cheat on him?

B*tch!

“There’s nothing between us anymore. Don’t cling to me like a band-aid.”

Cole Stone calmly stated.

The crowd completely turned to Cole Stone’s side and they flew into a rage after being played like a fiddle by Jane Smith. “So it was this woman who had an affair. What a waste of our feelings.”

“Go to hell! You lied to this buddy here and got your name on the property deed. Now that you already have half of his house, you still want to milk him for all he’s worth?”

“Wh*re! Stupid b*tch!”

“…”

The crowd viciously scolded Jane Smith.

They had originally wanted to stand up for her.

They even wasted their office hours to uphold justice for her.

But in the end, it turned out they were actually being accessories to the crimes.

What’s even worse was that Jane Smith even used them as her weapon to harm the innocent…

If he didn’t have these voice messages, wouldn’t Cole Stone be wrongfully accused today?

The realization made them even angrier!
