Forbidden Love with His Uncle

Chapter 4: Cheating Right Under Will's Nose

Even as he joked, he didn't forget to put his arm around Hailee's shoulder, completely unaware that he was making a joke about the woman he was currently holding in his arms.

Depp showed no intention of continuing the conversation, and he coldly lit a cigarette, the familiar scent drifting into Hailee's nose. The scent was as intense and seductive as Depp himself, and she couldn't resist it!

Hailee lifted Will's arm and got up. "Excuse me, I need to go to the restroom."

If she stayed any longer, she might suffocate. As she went to the restroom, she messaged her best friend Mary on her phone. Before she could even type the word "underwear," she saw Depp, dressed in a trench coat, leaning against the railing at the entrance, leisurely smoking.

The large crystal chandelier illuminated him, making his broad shoulders and narrow waist even more dazzling.

She wanted to hide, but Depp happened to see her. This time, his gaze didn't leave her; he seemed to be waiting for her to come over and greet him.

Hailee could only maintain a smile, pretending to be gracious as she walked over to him, saying with a smile, "What a coincidence running into you here, Uncle Depp."

Depp said nonchalantly, "It's not a coincidence; I was waiting for you."

"Waiting for me? For what?" Hailee was taken aback.

Depp extinguished the cigarette and accurately flicked it into the trash bin on the opposite side. With his hands in his pockets, he stood before her, looking down at her from a higher vantage point, "Why are you still wearing last night's clothes?"

Anticipating that he would ask this, Hailee pretended to be aggrieved, "I lost my room card in your room, so I couldn't go back to change."

"And?" Depp paused, then pointed at Hailee's legs. "Is that the reason you're not wearing any underwear?"

Hailee's face turned pale in an instant, and she asked in surprise, "How did you know?"

Frowning, Depp reached into his pants pocket and directly stuffed a pair of panties into her coat pocket, commanding in tone, "Go the hell in and put them on."

She was immediately shocked and reached into her pocket to pull them out to take a look, "How did they end up with you?"

"Don't you know why?"

Depp had no intention of paying her any attention. Seeing that she didn't move, he had to add, "They got stuck in my clothes. I was in a hurry when I left last night, so I didn't notice."

She brushed him off with a perfunctory response and quickly rushed to the restroom with her legs tightly closed. After putting on her panties, she instantly felt a sense of security.

Thinking about Depp saying he had left in a hurry last night, she started to feel uncomfortable. How desperate was he to leave her side? He showed no affection after he finished, indicating just how heartless of a man he was!

Back at the table, Will happened to be on the phone. From the content of the conversation, Hailee could tell it was Emily calling, checking on his whereabouts.

This "mother and son" relationship was truly disgusting.

In the end, Will said, "I'll call you back once I'm done here, bye sweetie."

As if he had found something incredible, Johnson pointed at him with an excited expression. "Yo, buddy, you got a situation."

Will calmly raised his phone and showed Johnson the call history. "It's my mommy!"

Witnessing all this, Hailee's face flashed a cold smile. She suddenly reconciled with herself and forgave her own foolishness.

Actually, she couldn't blame herself for not noticing Will's strangeness all this time. With all these men at the table, each one shrewd in his own way, so who would suspect that Will was having an affair with his own mother?

Emily, with an even more fitting identity than Hailee, could easily get Will's whereabouts without raising any suspicions. People would only see her as a good mother.

Just like Johnson, s soon as he realized it was Will's mother, the bright light in his eyes disappeared instantly.

Who would be interested in a mother and son?

At first, Hailee really thought that Emily and Will were truly mother and son, so she didn't dare to speak up or directly ask Will. She endured it for two days before finally telling Mary, who helped her investigate and found out the truth.

Emily wasn't Will's biological mother at all. His real mother had died long ago, and his father didn't care about him. He had lived as an orphan for a long time.

When he was twelve or thirteen, he ran away from school and ended up in this city. With nowhere else to go, he was taken in by the ten-years-older Emily.

And then they started living together, calling each other mother and son.

During their university years, Hailee and Will got together, and that was when she knew he came from a single-parent family. He rarely mentioned his parents, so she naturally had no knowledge of his mother's actual relationship with him.

It wasn't until last year, their sixth year together and the age when marriage was being discussed, that she accidentally discovered that he called his mom Emily.

At first, she didn't react, but when Mary brought it up, she felt that something was off.

She always knew that Will had a powerful younger uncle named Depp, who was the heir of the Leo family.

According to logic, her mother's surname should also be Leo.

Realizing this issue, she immediately asked Will, but his answer was that Depp wasn't her real uncle.

Then he changed the subject, and she thought there might be some conflict between him and Uncle Depp, so she let it go.

Until a few days ago, she was watching a show on Will's iPad when she accidentally opened his photo album out of curiosity. To her astonishment, she saw intimate photos of him with Emily. There were not only pictures of them sleeping together on the same bed, but also ones of them embracing and kissing. And a video of their s*x in difficult postures.

These photos were all taken during her relationship with Will.

She couldn't believe that those were poses a normal mother and son would do.

So, in the middle of the night, braving the rain, she went to find Will.

Then she caught him and Emily having s*x.

She quietly left without making a scene, pretending as if she hadn't seen anything. But only she knew how shattered she felt at that moment.

It wasn't the pain of being deceived or betrayed, but rather the unwillingness to face her own foolishness.

Hailee sat beside Will as if she knew nothing.

Will naturally put his arm around her shoulder and smiled tenderly. "With my Hailee by my side, what more could I possibly need?"

"She’s the only woman I love in the world.. How could there be another woman." He tried to kiss Hailee's cheek, but she dodged it and pretended to be shy.

Frand took the opportunity to tease them, "Little Hailee is shy."

James immediately chimed in, "If it weren't for Hailee being so shy, I would have thought the woman in Depp's room last night was Hailee. Their voices were so similar."

Hailee froze on the spot. She could not imagine how clearly this man heard her last night. He even recognized her voice.

She started to doubt herself. Was I really that loud last night?

She subconsciously glanced at Depp, but Depp seemed to hear nothing and was calmly slicing a piece of pork chop. The pork chop oozed fresh blood, and like him, it was chillingly cool.

This time, even Will, no matter how slow-witted he was, couldn't help but feel suspicious. He remained silent for two seconds and jokingly asked Hailee in front of everyone, "Babe, were you the woman in Uncle Depp’s room?"
