Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations

Chapter 957: Chapter 957: Forcing the Car to Stop

”Wow, today’s breakfast is really sumptuous!” Jocelyn Morgan also just arrived at the dining room. She was wearing a black dress today, looking elegant and poised. ”This soy milk is my favorite! My brother likes to drink it too! It’s been a long time since it was made, hasn’t it?”

”Yes, Miss.” The servant replied, ”Because the madam likes it.”

”Madam?”

It was the first time she heard this term at home, so she was a bit surprised, ”My sister-in-law?”

”That’s right.”

”So my sister-in-law likes it too! It seems we have many common hobbies!”

Just as Finn Morgan and Hailey Hale reached the dining room entrance, they heard Jocelyn’s chirpy voice, like a carefree lark.

Hailey envied her a lot, feeling that her happiness probably wouldn’t return. Ever since the incident, everyone’s heart had been heavy.

”Bro, sis-in-law!” Jocelyn saw them and immediately greeted them with a smile, ”You’re up? Come, come, hurry and have breakfast!”

”Jocelyn.” Hailey politely asked, ”Weren’t you traveling? Why did you come back so soon?”

”Didn’t I see your dad’s news?” The girl blurted out, ”It scared me to death, so I rushed back. How is it? Is it easy to resolve?”

After she finished speaking, a brief silence fell over the dining room.

Discussing this topic within the Morgan family seemed inappropriate.

Finn tried to ease the situation, ”Kids shouldn’t worry about adult matters, hurry and eat breakfast, come, sit.”

Jocelyn seemed to realize something as well, and she didn’t pursue further questions.

The atmosphere during breakfast was a bit awkward.

After breakfast, Finn prepared to leave with Hailey after bidding farewell to the family.

”Leaving already?” Jocelyn asked in puzzlement in the yard.

Hailey nodded without saying much, and Finn simply nodded too, then opened the door to the Maybach’s passenger seat.

”Drive safely on the road,” Jasmine advised.

”Okay.”

Hailey and Finn got into the car, and under everyone’s watchful eyes, the car drove away.

”Aunt,” Jocelyn turned her eyes worriedly, asking, ”Will Mayor Hale be sentenced to death?”

”Not sure.” Jasmine replied indifferently, turning to walk towards her room.

Jocelyn exchanged a look with Everett Morgan, and neither spoke.

The white Maybach had just driven not far from the Morgan’s residence when a black sedan approached head-on, moving into the lane Finn was driving on. He quickly stepped on the brakes.

Both cars came to a halt almost simultaneously, their hoods facing each other, and only half a meter apart.

This doesn’t look good!

Hailey anxiously turned to look at Finn, who remained calm, then they saw the driver’s side door open.

Zachary Merce got out of the car wearing simple clothes, with a white flower pinned to his chest.

This made both Finn and Hailey’s hearts sink heavily!

Melissa Merce died??

Both Finn and Hailey almost simultaneously unbuckled their seatbelts and got out of the car.

Zachary’s gaze was icy and carried a hint of resentment, ”Finn, is your heart made of stone? Why didn’t you answer the phone last night?”

Was the call last night from them?

Hailey’s heart sank further as she turned her gaze towards Finn.

However, Finn’s eyes remained fixed on the white flower on Zachary’s chest... He understood, it was Melissa’s call before she passed away.

”The doctor announced she couldn’t make it through the night, she was calling your name all day until she ran out of strength, still softly calling your name till the end.”

Recalling his daughter’s pitiful state, Zachary felt a sharp pain in his heart.

”If it weren’t for Melissa, could you two have gotten married smoothly? Think about it carefully.”

”Isn’t it impossible in this lifetime? With Mayor Hale’s downfall, your dad wouldn’t allow you to be with this woman by your side.”

Hailey’s heart silently clenched for a moment.

Just when Zachary thought Finn would repent and say something, Finn’s phone rang.

He took it out, glanced at the caller ID, and immediately answered, ”Hello, CEO Kingston.”

Whatever Justin Kingston said, ”Okay, I’ll be right there!”

”Uncle Mercer, sorry.” With that, Finn pulled Hailey into the car, reversed a few meters, then turned the steering wheel, and the car sped away!
