The Villain Mom Awakens — Going Viral by Parenting on a Reality Show

Chapter 438 - 440: Jackson Kensington Vomits Blood from Anger

"A... a paternity test?" Lorraine Warren’s pupils constricted violently. She was clearly terrified to her core.

Jackson Kensington furiously slapped Lorraine Warren. It was the first time he had ever hit her. He felt his very dignity as a man had been violated.

"How much longer were you going to hide this sordid affair with Lee Warren from me? You married him in secret, behind my back, yet you still had the gall to pretend you only loved me? You’re disgusting!"

He spat the words out in a fury.

Lorraine Warren was completely dumbfounded. By the time she came to her senses, Jackson Kensington had already left with Jeanette Kensington.

She chased after them, crying, "Jackson! Jackson..."

*

Jackson Kensington contacted an old classmate who worked at a hospital. The results came back that afternoon. He opened the report with a heart full of trepidation.

’Maybe Lee Warren is just trying to mess with me. If that’s the case, I’ll have to give Lorraine a proper apology.’

He unfolded the paternity test report. In clear black and white, it read:

Jackson Kensington and Jeanette Kensington do not share a biological parent-child relationship.

Jackson Kensington’s world spun. A metallic, sweet taste filled his throat, and he collapsed.

A passerby shouted, "Help! Someone’s collapsed over here!"

*

Jackson Kensington didn’t know how long he had been unconscious. He felt like he was dying, and his last thoughts were of Jeanette Kensington.

She was his pride and joy, the sweet daughter who had always warmed his heart.

When she was little, Jeanette had been so considerate. She would sing nursery rhymes to cheer him up and massage his shoulders when he was swamped with work.

He had cherished the days he spent with her and her mother.

A gentle, thoughtful wife and a sweet, well-behaved daughter—it was the life he had always dreamed of.

"Jackson... Jackson, please, wake up..."

"Dad..."

Faint voices pulled Jackson Kensington back to full consciousness. He looked at the mother and daughter standing vigil by his bed, his heart filled with rage and resentment. "Get out. I’ll have divorce papers drawn up. You and that bastard child can get the hell out of my life. Don’t you ever show your faces in front of me again!"

Jeanette Kensington never imagined that her father, who had always doted on her, who had treated her like the apple of his eye, would call her a bastard.

Lorraine Warren was crying wretchedly. For the first time, she felt such intense hatred for someone. She wanted to flay Lee Warren alive. He had single-handedly destroyed the wonderful life she had worked so hard to build...

Even though she had braced herself for this possibility, now that it was actually happening, all she could do was cry.

’Why couldn’t our happiness have just lasted forever...’

Lorraine Warren covered Jeanette Kensington’s ears, trying to shield her from Jackson Kensington’s words.

"Jackson, please, just give me a chance to explain... I was with Lee Warren back then because I didn’t know you were coming back for me. I had honestly given up all hope. You didn’t want me anymore; you couldn’t expect me to just wait for you for the rest of my life. You know I’m not educated, that I don’t have any real skills. After you left, I was all alone in Veridia with no one to rely on. All I wanted was to marry a decent man and live out the rest of my days..."

"It’s true, Jeanette isn’t related to you by blood, but we’ve been together for so many years... She only knows you as her father. Don’t you feel even a shred of pity for her? Did you buy her beautiful clothes only because she was your daughter? Is blood really that important? The bond we’ve built should be what’s most precious..."

Lorraine Warren’s crying was pitiful.

"Shut your mouth, you lunatic!" Jackson Kensington roared. "So according to you, this is all my fault? How long was I even gone before you couldn’t wait to run off and marry some beggar! You talk about loving me—you love my money, don’t you? You’re uncultured, you can barely even read! Who was it that brought you into a life of luxury? Who was it that let you wear designer clothes and buy designer bags? Without me, you’d still be washing dishes for the rest of your life! And how did you repay me, Lorraine Warren?! You cheated on me! You made me a cuckold for the whole world to see!"

Jackson Kensington’s face was etched with anguish, and his eyes glistened with unshed tears. "How could you betray me like this? All these years... I doted on Jeanette Kensington, treated her like my precious Pearl. Even when I hit rock bottom, I was still thinking about putting on a music recital for her. When she got sick, I borrowed money to pay for her treatment! And in the end..." His fingers trembled. "It was all a lie. Our loving marriage was a lie. My daughter was a lie. Tell me, what part of it was real? Have you ever told me a single shred of truth?!"

Before Lorraine Warren could speak, he cut in, "Get out of here. Don’t stay in my house. Get as far away from me as you can..."

"Dad..."

Jeanette Kensington hung her head, weeping. "Dad, please don’t abandon us..."

She dropped to her knees, causing Lorraine Warren to cry out in alarm, "Jeanette!"

"Dad, I’m begging you. I promise I’ll be a good daughter to you. You’re the only father I have. I couldn’t choose my parentage. Mom feels terrible about this. Please, can you forgive us? We’re a family! How can you bear to throw us away?!"

Jackson Kensington called for the bodyguards. "Get them out of here. If you let them back in, you’re fired!"

*

The news of Jackson Kensington being cuckolded somehow leaked onto the internet, attracting a huge crowd of online spectators eager for some drama.

[Jackson Kensington’s favoritism was off the charts. To think the illegitimate daughter he protected so fiercely isn’t even his own kid. This is karma at its finest! So satisfying!]

[How can something this dramatic even happen?]

[So, that means Mr. Kensington’s only real daughter is our Nina, right? But he neglected and bullied his own flesh and blood for someone else’s kid...]

[Huh? You call that thing a father? All I can say is, what goes around comes around.]

[It really is what goes around, comes around. All the bad karma he built up came right back to bite him. Makes you wonder, doesn’t it?]

[Should Jeanette Kensington be happy or sad about this? After getting her career shelved, she can use this scandal to get famous again!]

[So the family really just fell apart after the paternity test? They spent most of their lives together. Everyone could see how much Jackson Kensington doted on Jeanette Kensington.]

[Jackson Kensington already deleted his previous social media posts about her. It’s obvious he’s trying to cut all ties with Jeanette Kensington.]

...

Jackson Kensington’s tarnished reputation became public knowledge. On top of that, Kenway Group’s stock took another dive.

The shareholders were furious. They called a meeting to elect a new chairman.

Caleb Bishop appeared at the company again, flanked by several bodyguards as if anticipating trouble. He held a significant number of shares, but given his previous despicable actions, none of the other shareholders present looked at him favorably.

Naomi Kenway entered the conference room shortly after. She had been busy acquiring shares all day yesterday.

Caleb Bishop’s expression was unreadable when he saw her. Naomi Kenway had managed to acquire shares from so many old-timers on the final day, and it had indeed caught him completely off guard.

His previous certainty of victory had all but vanished.
