Forbidden Passion
Chapter 279 Illegitimate Child

Bishop glanced at the two individuals, quickly weighing the gains and losses in his mind. He was well acquainted with Theodore's temperament; he wouldn't overlook it when his woman was hurt.

He could only swallow his pride and agree to temporarily close down for two months to rectify the situation, allowing Theodore to take away the two individuals. However, before they left, he warned them against speaking impulsively.

Watching Theodore and his companions leave, Bishop angrily smashed a vase that was worth hundreds of thousands in the lobby.

"Damn it, how did you provoke him?"

The lobby manager, looking at his terrifying expression, trembled in fear beside him. He said, "We didn't know that the person Tompson had plotted against was his lover."

Bishop kicked out, hitting the lobby manager in the abdomen. When he fell to the ground, Bishop grabbed him by the collar, scolding, "His lover? That's his wife!"

Lobby Manager thought, 'I was negligent!'

They were quite wronged, too. In the past, it never caused such a commotion when the guests misbehaved. Who would have thought that Tompson had set his sights on the person in charge of QUEEN Entertainment?

Even if they didn't think it through, they should have known that for her to rise to the position of company executive at such a young age, she must have some powerful backing.

It was also their fault for not investigating beforehand.

Now, with a two-month closure for rectification and the loss of tens of thousands in revenue each day, the boss was definitely going to be furious. More importantly, Theodore took the people away.  

Those two individuals know a lot about the hotel, and any careless word from them could spell trouble.

...

Theodore left the hotel with his bodyguards, many black cars driving away, exuding a very intimidating aura.  

In the black Maybach, Theodore instructed Lawton. "Investigate Bishop; I sense he's not simple."

Lawton glanced in the rearview mirror and cautiously said, "Theodore, have you noticed that he looks a lot like you?"  

Theodore chuckled. "So what if he looks like me? Could he be an illegitimate child that my father had outside?"

Lawton was speechless. 'God forbid, don't let Theodore guess right.'

After Theodore spoke, he also had doubts inside.

His father was handsome in his youth, and even now, approaching sixty, he still exuded a charming demeanor that captivated young women who aspired to marry into wealth.  

However, Brandon was like a moral compass; no matter how many women pursued him, he never had extramarital affairs like other wealthy men.  

Therefore, the image he had set for the three siblings was that of a family-loving good man. If Brandon really had such a big illegitimate child outside, how would they cope with it?  

Theodore rubbed his brow, vaguely feeling that Bishop's appearance would bring about significant changes to their family.

Theodore returned to the Imperial Apartment, took off his suit jacket, and draped it over the chair back. After searching the house for a while, he finally found Phoebe in the study.

She was slumped over the desk, seemingly asleep from exhaustion.

He walked in quietly, stopped by the desk, and saw her holding a tablet in her hand, apparently dozing off.

As he carefully approached, he leaned over to hold the other end of the tablet and pulled it out.

However, his movement made Phoebe wake up despite the caution.
