Chapter 736 Your Child is Alive
~~*****~~
As Vincent finally revealed himself, a surge of intense emotions overwhelmed Jane. The deep-seated resentment she harbored against this man, the source of her past suffering, ignited within her. Almost instinctively, Jane\'s hand reached for the knife on the table.
The room fell into an alarmed hush as Jane rose from her seat, approaching Vincent with determination. She gripped his collar tightly and held the knife against his neck.
"Stay away from my King!" Speed moved to intervene, but Hanabi swiftly stepped in, capturing Speed from behind. Meanwhile, Jack, sensing the rising tension, pulled Alexander to a corner, shielding him with his body. Tatsumi positioned himself beside Jane, keeping a watchful eye on Jack. The room crackled with an escalating sense of danger.
"Should I protect and save him? Just give me the word," Jack whispered to Alexander.
"No, stay put," Alexander firmly instructed as they observed the unfolding scene.
Vincent, however, remained surprisingly composed under the threat of the knife pointed at his neck. Unfazed, he looked into Jane\'s eyes.
"Have you recovered your memories?" Vincent inquired, sensing Jane\'s palpable anger and disgust.
Jane\'s body tensed at Vincent\'s question, a confirmation that her forgotten memories were resurfacing.
"I want to kill you," she muttered through gritted teeth.
"You can\'t kill me. If you do, you won\'t see your child again. Your child is alive," Vincent declared, dropping a bombshell revelation that left Jane in disbelief.
"W-What did you just say?" Jane asked, stunned.
"I\'m the father of your child. And I saved our child," Vincent revealed, shattering the silence that had settled in the room.
Alexander: "..."
Tatsumi: "..."
Hanabi: "..."
Speed and Jack: "..."
The revelation that Vincent and Jane had a child sent shockwaves through the room. Each person present grappled with the same question: \'They have a child?\'
Jane found herself caught in a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. The gravity of Vincent\'s words left her uncertain about how to respond.
"You\'re lying," Jane uttered in denial, her grip on Vincent\'s collar loosening.
Vincent gently touched the hand that held the knife. "I\'m telling the truth. I can prove it to you when you see her."
Before they could fully absorb Vincent\'s shocking revelation, another unexpected figure entered the room. A man in a waiter\'s uniform, holding a tray of food, witnessed the intense scene. Recognition flashed in his eyes as he first spotted Jane and then the man standing in front of her—Vincent.
\'What are they doing here?\' Nathan wondered as he noticed Alexander\'s presence. His protective instincts kicked in, and without a second thought, Nathan rushed forward. The tray crashed to the floor as he threw a punch, connecting with Vincent\'s jaw.
Thud!
Jane\'s focus returned when she saw the man she never expected to show up in that place.
"Nate? What are you doing here?" Jane inquired, her eyes widening in both shock and disbelief.
Instead of responding, Nathan seized her hand, pulling her to his side. "Just say the word and I\'ll kill this guy for you."
Vincent and Nathan exchanged intense glares, both displeased to find themselves in the same place.
"No. Stop, Nate. You are not supposed to be here." Jane suddenly grew worried about her father encountering Nathan. He might do something impulsive.
Without a second thought, Jane hurriedly led Nathan out of the room. Vincent watched their retreating figures with clenched fists. Once the two disappeared from view, Hanabi and Tatsumi also left the room.
"I told you! This is a waste of time!" Speed complained. "They disrespected you, my King! We should leave now."
Vincent rubbed his jaw, still feeling the impact of Nathan\'s fist. He showed no intention of leaving.
"Is it true? You and Jane have a child?" Alexander raised the question, curious about the history between the two.
"Do you think I would lie about that?" Vincent responded nonchalantly, and Speed and Jack silently observed their bosses, both surprised by Vincent\'s revelation.
"So what are we going to do now? It seems that the Godfather\'s daughter has no interest in negotiating with us. She just left together with the waiter." Speed sighed deeply. She was the only one who didn\'t recognize Nathan Sparks.
"Let\'s wait for the Godfather to come," Alexander suggested. "For now, we should inform someone to clean the mess." He turned around to leave.
"My Lord, where are you going?" Jack asked, trying to stop him.
"Just stay with them and keep him safe," Alexander ordered Jack as he pointed his finger at Vincent. "I\'ll just talk to someone."
He didn\'t wait for Jack to respond. He just stepped out of the room with a goal in mind. He wanted to follow Hanabi and talk to her.

Meanwhile, Jane brought Nathan to the Branch Leader\'s office. She locked the door, ensuring that no one would disrupt them.
"Nate, why are you here?" Jane asked him, holding his shoulders.
"I should be the one asking you. Why did you meet Vincent and the Dragon Lord? You never mentioned this to me." Nathan\'s voice carried a trace of jealousy.
"Does your father want to join hands with them? I don\'t know how long I will be able to endure this. Your engagement announcement is already bothering me so much." Nathan vented out his frustration. The tension in the room was palpable as unspoken emotions hung in the air.
Aside from jealousy, Jane could see Nathan\'s distress and anxiety. To comfort him, Jane immediately engulfed him in her warm embrace.
"I\'m sorry, Nate. You have to hear and witness those scenes." Jane hugged him tightly, expressing her feelings.
"No matter what happens… I\'ll always choose you, Nate. I won\'t marry anyone. Trust me. Okay?" Jane\'s words brought a sense of relief to Nathan\'s troubled heart.
"Don\'t be upset. I have to confront Vincent and Alexander. I didn\'t mention this because I knew you would react this way," she apologized once again.
"There\'s something I need to check with Vincent. He told me—" Jane abruptly paused, a hint of worry crossing her face as she recalled Vincent\'s last remarks. She glanced at Nathan, unsure of how to tell him about Vincent\'s revelation regarding her child.
"What did he say?" Nathan urged her to continue. He saw the changes in Jane\'s expression when Vincent\'s name was mentioned.
\'I can\'t tell him unless I\'m certain about it. I don\'t want to add more troubles in his mind,\' Jane thought to herself.
"Let\'s talk somewhere. First… we need to get out of here. You don\'t want my father to see you here, right?"
Nathan hesitated for a moment. After careful consideration, he bobbed his head. "Is it okay for you to leave without saying goodbye to your father?"
"Don\'t worry. I\'ll let Hanabi and Tatsumi handle this." Jane reassured him.
Without wasting any more time, Jane guided him to the exit. Tatsumi was already waiting for them. Tatsumi and Nathan locked eyes for a few seconds.
"I\'ll accompany you so that our Godfather won\'t suspect anything," Tatsumi explained to the couple. He already anticipated that Jane would need his help.
Jane smiled at him gratefully. "Thanks. I truly appreciate this."
Tatsumi ignored Nathan\'s cold glare as he smiled back at Jane. "I\'ll bring you to my place."
