NovelTrueChapter 1256:
“I get it,” Alan said softly, his voice low and steady.
He couldn't stand that type of man—the kind who left a woman pregnant and then demanded she end the
pregnancy.
“I'm a little worn out from standing,” Alan said casually, the warmth in his face returning with a faint smile.
“Mind if | cin, enjoy a glass of water, and rest for a while?”
“Mr. Briggs...” Donna's expression was troubled. She didn’t want to drag someone else into the mess. “This isn’t
as simple as it looks. If you get involved, you could lose your job...”
She knew exactly what Kevin was capable of. Even a friend of hers had been fired for speaking up. In Alerith, no
one dared go up against him.
“Well, I've actually been hoping to lose my job,” Alan said with a dry smile, speaking with surprising ease.
“Work’s exhausting anyway.”
Donna looked as though she might protest again, but just then, a voice rang out from inside—chilled, clipped,

“Let's go,” Alan said, unbothered. “No point in keeping him waiting.”

Alan made himself comfortable on the single sofa beside him, tossing on a faint, smug smile. “Been a while,
Kevin.”
Kevin's face twisted. “What are you doing here?”

“I didn’t exactly volunteer,” Alan said, pulling Nina onto his lap. “My sweet niece couldn't bear to be separated
from Jerome. She insisted on bringing him back.”
At that, both Kevin and Donna turned to look at Jerome.
Kevin kept his calm and said coolly, “He's safely hnow. You can go.”
“Yeah, no,” Alan replied, acting as if he didn’t get the message. Kevin froze.
Alan continued casually, “I've got something important to talk over with Jerome’s mom, so I'm not going
anywhere.”
Kevin's eyes narrowed. “What is it?”
