Chapter 246

Why Don’t You Give Me a Chance

As it was William’s birthday, and he hadn’t come back for years, the Dunphy mansion had been busy
since early morning.

Even Charlie got up early and didn’t go to the company as usual.

Although the relationship between the father and son was not good, they still cared about each other.
Besides, William’s beloved Cierra had come back, so they couldn’t be

careless.

Cierra didn’t slack off either.

She planned to handle all the food for William’s birthday herself, so she couldn’t take a

break.

Moreover, there were two or, to be precise, three important guests in the house.

After Freddy and Dr. Charles were picked up yesterday, Sarah and Wanda had a long talk and later
Wanda agreed to stay at the mansion.

She had thought that Wanda, with her personality, would hide from Jaquan when she

saw him.

The Dunphy family mansion was spacious and accommodated Joshua and Fanny until they had both
moved out to start their own families and to leave more room for Sarah to

rest.



Only during holidays would they all gather together to liven up the place.

The mansion, which had been almost empty for a long time, suddenly became lively with so many
people around, and everyone was brimming with happiness.

Mrs. Taylor had gotten up early to buy groceries and prepare the food.

Charlie was in the backyard, playing chess with the elders, while Wanda was playing with Will in the
grape arbor.

Jaquan who didn’t want to disturb Wanda was sitting with Mrs. Chester on the other

side. He watched as his mother laughed kindly, her eyes fixed on Wanda and Will.

“Jaquan, I heard from Cici that you have feelings for that girl. When are you going to marry her?”

Jaquan nearly burned himself as he heard his mother’s words, but he quickly recovered and acted as if
nothing had happened.

“Mom, I can’t rush this kind of thing.”

“What do you mean you can’t rush it? Your child needs a good mother. If you don’t act fast, that girl
might run away with someone else. Where are you going to find another girl as pretty and kind-hearted
as her, who will also be good to your child?”

Sarah glared at Jaquan, frustrated with his indecisiveness, and took the cup of tea that Jaquan had
handed her.

“If you really like her, you have to treat her a hundred times better than anyone else. Do you
understand me?”

Jaquan looked up to see Wanda patiently helping Will pick fruit.



Her face was glowing with a beautiful smile, and she was great with Will. He didn’t know what they
were talking about, but she was speaking to Will with great care and

attention.

Jaquan was mesmerized by the scene and nodded his head slightly as he held the cup of tea. He
understood what his mother meant.

As Cierra and Mrs. Chester had warned, if Jaquan didn’t handle the situation properly,

Wanda would likely find herself a husband soon.

After all, if Wanda had already set her sights on someone, she wouldn’t have been alone for so long
and working alongside Jaquan almost every day of the year.

Jaquan had initially thought that Wanda’s excuse last time on the riverbank was just a

casual one.

But after meeting Wanda’s father and understanding her family situation, he had a good idea why she
had refused him.

Wanda had always been a self-sufficient person who preferred to handle everything herself and not
burden others.

Even when she couldn’t handle it, she would rather suppress her emotions than ask for help.

If the man from last night was indeed her father, then Wanda was likely worried that he would
negatively affect the Dunphy family and had refused Jaquan’s proposal because

of that.



If that were true, then Jaquan felt a glimmer of hope.

A hint of joy appeared on his face.

If that was the case, then dealing with the situation would be.

easy.

As his mother had said, if Wanda married him, he should treat her well.

With that in mind, he got up and made his way toward Wanda and Will, who were

playing together.

Wanda had rarely seen Will, except for the two months before his birth.

If Sarah hadn’t told Wanda that she could stay and sleep with Will, Wanda would have

left.

After all, Wanda had given birth to Will. Although she could only occasionally get close to him; it was a
source of joy for her.

Jaquan’s sudden appearance startled Wanda.

Immediately, the smile on her face disappeared, and she looked slightly nervous as she glanced at
Jaquan.

“Mr. Dunphy.”

“You’ve been working by my side for many years. There’s no need to be so formal,” Jaquan said with a
slight frown.



He took Will’s small hand and pinched it.

Children naturally respected their fathers, but they also liked to be close to them. Will unconsciously
moved away from Wanda and leaned against Jaquan.

Jaquan touched his head and said warmly, “Will, go find your grandmother to play. I need to talk to
Wanda. Is that okay?”

“Are you asking her if she wants to be my mom?” Will asked bluntly.

Both Jaquan and Wanda were dazed.

Will blinked, looked at Wanda seriously, and said, “If she’s the one, I can accept her as my mother. So,
Dad, good luck.”

He turned around, smiled at Jaquan, and ran towards Sarah.

Now only Wanda and Jaquan remained under the arbor.

Jaquan smiled, his eyes full of laughter, as if he was still thinking about Will’s words.

Wanda felt anxious. “Children speak their minds. Please don’t take what he said to heart, Mr. Dunphy.”

Jaquan looked up.

His deep black gaze was pressing and overwhelming.

“What if I do take it to heart?” he asked.

Wanda was slightly taken aback.



Jaquan said, “I was serious when I said those things last time, Wanda. I have feelings for you. If you’re
willing, we can try dating for a while. I can give you the best in this world. Is that okay?”

He spoke with a pleading tone, and his whole demeanor was gentle and sincere, unlike a

cold CEO.

Wanda was stunned.

It took her a moment to find her voice. “But Mr. Dunphy, I…”

“You still want to reject me?” Jaquan interrupted before Wanda could finish her

sentence.

“Is it because of Will?” he continued, his tone almost pitiful. “Or do you think I’m too old to have room in
my heart for love?”

Wanda’s emotions were already in turmoil, but the mention of Will added another layer of complexity.
She couldn’t bring herself to dislike Will or Jaquan.

“No, it’s not true,” she replied firmly.

“Mr. Dunphy, you’re still young and successful. And Will is adorable. A good boy.”

She loved Will, in fact. She even wanted to give him all she had.

She didn’t dislike the father or the son.

She just couldn’t show love.

“Then why not give me a chance?”



Jaquan demanded, his tone becoming more forceful.

“If you don’t dislike us, then what’s stopping you from giving us a chance? My assets

are considerable, my son is well-behaved and obedient, and my family is kind-hearted and generous.
Wanda, why not take a chance on me?”

He took a step closer, his demeanor suddenly aggressive.

“I’m rich and not bad-looking, even with a son. And I promise you, my family will treat

you well. So why not give me a chance, Wanda?”
