Chapter 348 Lola Had Fallen into the Trap

Penelope's heart gave a violent jolt. Before she could speak, Zackary continued, word by word, "Penelope, don't forget, that foolish cripple is my, Zackary's, son!"

"Even though I despised him, looked down on him, the paternity test results still showed that he and I were father and son! If I wanted his custody, it would be a piece of cake! Penelope, I have hundreds of ways to ensure that you never see that stupid cripple again in your life!"

"Penelope, be my secret lover obediently. If I don't get your definite answer before tomorrow night, I'll see you in court!"

After saying this, Zackary abruptly stood up, carrying a chill with him as he headed towards the outside of the small apartment.

Watching the small apartment door that he had violently slammed shut, Penelope was so angry that she was shaking all over, and it took her a long time to calm down.

Zackary, who looked down on Ethan, trampled on Ethan's dignity time and time again. Unexpectedly, he even wanted to compete with her for Ethan's custody!

Penelope knew she didn't have much time left. She hoped that after her death, Ethan would have someone to rely on.

But that person, absolutely could not be Zackary.

Zackary was indeed Ethan's biological father, but he didn't love Ethan, he only had Lola in his heart.

Lola was more cunning than she had imagined. Trying to completely bring her down before her death was not as easy as she thought.

By then, she had died, Lola and Zackary were deeply in love, and Ethan was taken back by the Spencer family, he would surely suffer endless pain and torment.

Cornelia was indeed a good elder, but she couldn't possibly keep an eye on Lola all the time. If Ethan was secretly sabotaged by someone, it would be hard to guard against.

Lyman was also willing to take good care of Ethan, but even though he was her biological brother, Dalton refused to acknowledge that she was the daughter of the Hilliard family.

Lyman couldn't compete with Zackary either, and in the end, Ethan was still destined to fall into the demon's den.

Even with Zackary's influence, if he really wanted to sue her for Ethan's custody, even if she was still alive, she couldn't compete with him.

Being Zackary's secret lover, she would absolutely never agree.

What should she do, when she was alive, she could accompany Ethan well, and when she died, she could also provide Ethan with the most solid support?!

Inside the small apartment, Zackary spoke with gritted teeth and cold ruthlessness. But once he stepped out of the door, all that was left on him was a desolate desolation.

He didn't want it like this, he really didn't.

He wished more to hold her Penelope tightly in his arms, watching her act coquettishly with a blooming smile in his embrace.

However, she didn't love him.

She flirted with men everywhere, but she was unwilling to spare Zackary a second glance.

Her lack of love left their romance with no way to survive...

Lyman was really busy today.

Busy tormenting bitches, busy sowing discord between Lola and Ralph, busy making Lola lose her biggest support, how could I not be busy!

Coincidentally, when Lyman was studying abroad, his super close buddy, Timothy Carlson, a well-known playboy in Sea City, had a fling with Lola.

Timothy's family owned mines, and he was willing to spend money on women. Even though he was quite fickle, there were still many women who were devoted to him.

Years ago, before Lola was claimed by the Hilliard family, she was able to play the lead roles in several big productions, all thanks to Timothy, who spared no expense for her.

Timothy, this man, when he was maintaining sexual relationships with women, although he was willing to spend money on them, he really didn't take those women seriously.

In his view, hundreds of women could not compare to a good brother.

Lyman sought his help, and naturally, he would not let his brother's trust down.

Moreover, Lola really gave him a bad feeling. He was fickle, but he didn't like it when a woman he was in a relationship with was also entangled with other men. It made him feel disgusted.

When he was holding Lola, he had caught her in bed with another man.

She had just gotten out of another man's bed and by night, she climbed into his. This gave him a feeling as if he had also slept with that man. In short, it made him uncomfortable for a long time.

A playboy like Timothy had some sort of relationship with a ne'er-do-well like Ralph. Of course, Ralph was unaware of his relationship with Lola.

After discussing the strategy with Lyman, Timothy invited Ralph to the Crown Club.

After having a couple of drinks with Ralph, Timothy dialed Lola's number.

"Mr. Carlson, how did you think to look for me? You haven't contacted me for a long time." As soon as the call was connected, Timothy heard Lola's coquettish voice.

Music was playing in the box of Crown Club, even if Timothy had turned on the speaker, Lola's voice was not so clear.

Timothy saw Ralph still drinking glass after glass, seemingly unaware that it was Lola who was calling him. He deliberately raised his voice and said, "Lola, I'm calling you, of course, because I miss you!"

"Lola, what have you been busy with lately? Have you missed me?"

Sure enough, upon hearing the name "Lola", Ralph put down his wine glass and stared unblinkingly at his phone in his hand.

Timothy remained expressionless on the surface, but inside, he was overjoyed. He continued to speak in a voice filled with obvious ambiguity, "Lola, I've been thinking about you every day recently. Thinking about our wonderful memories of nightly revelry."

"Mr. Carlson, you're so annoying! Who wants to party with you every night?" Lola continued to act coquettishly. Clearly, she was very familiar with Timothy. Her voice made Ralph frown uncontrollably.

"Lola, you couldn't have forgotten, could you? How much we loved each other back then? One night, we even..."

Timothy didn't continue speaking, but what he wanted to say next was self-evident.

"Mr. Carlson, you really have no shame!" Lola's voice sounded extremely shy.

"Lola, don't you just love my shamelessness?" Timothy smirked devilishly, then continued, "Lola, I miss you, so much that I can't sleep. Can you come over and keep me company tonight?"

"Disgusting!" Lola only had Zackary in her heart, but she wouldn't let go of such a big fish like Timothy.

In her view, Timothy was just a typical foolish son of a landlord, spending money on her as if he was throwing it away. He had always been at her beck and call. She happened to want the endorsement of the Carlson family's jewelry. Tonight, if she pleased him well, she was certain she could secure that endorsement.

At that time, her situation in the entertainment industry was really a bit awkward. She hardly had any major endorsements. She was desperately in need of securing a few major endorsements to hold her head high and also to consolidate her position.

"Lola, are you coming to see me or not? If you don't, I will be heartbroken."

"Mr. Carlson, I miss you too," Lola's voice carried a heart-stirring affection that completely shattered Ralph's heart, leaving it irreparable no matter how hard he tried.
