last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
After being cooped up at home for half a month, Nancy finally agreed to do some window shopping with Anna.

Anna was already six months pregnant, so her baby bump was very obvious. Nancy could tell Anna had gained some weight, but she was still not fat. In fact, her chubby face just made her all the cuter!

"Nancy, why don't you like coming out anymore? I wanted to ask you out for the longest time, but Yaacob said you need to rest more because of how sickly you are."

"Yeah. The doctor said there's a risk that I might lose the baby."

"Nonsense, you look healthy. Though your face is kinda pale, that doesn't mean you should stay cooped up at home the whole day. The baby needs fresh air too. Look at me, I walk at least two hours every day, and I look healthier than you."

Anna had been sharing pregnancy tips with Nancy as if she was well experienced, which she was, given how much healthier she looked than Nancy.

However, the reason Nancy had not been feeling that well was because Yaacob

    Wilfred reminded Ain that Yaacob did not have much longer to live. She personally went to Europe and found out the truth about Yaacob's condition.Nikolaus caused his company's stock to plummet in order to lure Yaacob there. He could not let go of Emily's death and once swore in front of her tombstone to bury Yaacob with her.Nikolaus originally planned to hire an assassin to kill Yaacob, but the Getson family was too powerful, and Europe had already become Randall's base, so no assassin would ever accept his request.In the end, he came up with an idea. He sold most of his family property and invested it in shady underground medical research, and finally created a virus tailor-made for Yaacob. The unique properties of the virus were that it could cause those infected to suffer extreme pain before they die.The infected would go through three stages of pain.In the first stage, the virus will destroy the nerves in the brain and the biochemical system in the body, making the infect

    "Umm, I'm really living a good life here, so I don't need you to save me," said Nancy to Benjamin.Even though Yaacob had been acting weird lately, she would not leave him because of that. Similarly, the paternity test could say Benjamin was her father, but the fact of the matter was he did not fulfill his duty as a father.In fact, she had no memory of him at all, whereas Yaacob was always there when she needed him the most. He was the only person who gave her love and stability after her grandfather passed away. Thus, she was not going to leave him just because Benjamin kept egging her to do so.After she hung up the phone, Nancy wanted to read a book to kill time. She went to Yaacob's study and picked up a book about Sherlock Holmes. She sat down on Yaacob's chair and happened to see the locked drawer on the left side of the desk. She did not think it was weird for Yaacob to keep that drawer locked since there were so many nosy family members living together under one big roof.

    It was not until Nancy said it hurt that Yaacob loosened his grip on her wrist."Nancy, you forced my hand. Why would you disobey me?""Then what do you want me to do then? Ignore everything so that you can keep me in the dark forever? Do you think I'd be happy just because you took on all the burden yourself?" retorted Nancy.Nancy did not want to live with her head stuck in the sand like an ostrich! Him hiding things from her would only make her blame herself for being so useless that she could not even help him in his times of need.However, Yaacob did not seem to understand her. Instead, he thought she was kicking up a fuss for nothing. After all, he was convinced that there was nothing Nancy could do to help him, so it was best for her not to know anything.'No. The Yaacob I know will never look down on me like that. For some reason, he has changed to someone I don't recognize anymore!' thought Nancy.In the end, Yaacob forced Nancy back to their bedroom. He even locked the

    Yaacob wanted to call the private doctor over immediately, but the pale Nancy held his hand and said, "I'm bleeding."Thus, he had no choice but to send Nancy to the hospital.After completing a series of examinations, the doctor told him, "Mr. Getson, your wife has an ectopic pregnancy."Yaacob refused to believe him. His throat tightened as he asked, "So?""So, we recommend performing surgery as soon as possible," the doctor told him solemnly."She had already done a few check-ups before, and all said she was fine.""It may not be detected at the beginning, because an ectopic pregnancy usually shows up as the fallopian tube rupturing after 40 days, resulting in excessive bleeding. I'm afraid we have to terminate the pregnancy. We hope you can convince your wife that the surgery must be performed as soon as possible for the sake of her own life."Yaacob did not return to the ward immediately after talking to the doctor.He went to smoke two more cigarettes. It was rare for him

    Nancy took over the media company Yaacob given to her. Although she was relatively young, she had experience in managing a company as big as Getson Corporation, so she was not really that frightened. Plus, with Yaacob helping her behind the scenes, everything went smoothly when Nancy first joined the company. In fact, it went so well... that she found it quite boring.Nancy's mind and heart were not in it at all. She just wanted to take a break from staying cooped up at home and to make herself feel better. However, she discovered that as long as Yaacob was feeling unwell, she would not feel good either.One day, Nancy was just about to get off work when she suddenly received a call from the hospital."Excuse me, is this Ms. Nancy Lawson?""Yes. Speaking.""Ms. Lawson, something happened to Ms. Anna Yale, and she would like you to come see her."Anna was in the last trimester then, so it must have something to do with the baby if something happened."Which hospital is she in?

    "Nine times out of ten, what you heard is what Kristine wanted you to hear. Most people would prefer to keep their evil plan from others, and yet she revealed her whole plan to you. So I think she must have an ulterior motive," said Nancy."What ulterior motive could she possibly have? Wait a minute… Could it be that she's going to kill Xander because they're not in it together?" said Anna hopefully. However, Nancy did not even need to say anything before she refuted the idea herself. "But Xander didn't turn her down! He must know she's Crystal's younger sister, and yet he pretended he didn't know who she was. So he did lie to me and my dad!"Nancy did not know what to say. It was not her place to speculate or meddle in Anna's family affairs. She had learned her lesson after the incident with Randall and Rowena.Unfortunately, Anna herself did not know what to do, so she kept asking Nancy, "What should I do?""You're a big girl now. You should come up with a solution yourself.""B

    "You've been using me all along, haven't you? From the moment you agreed to marry me, you were actually planning on taking all of my family's fortune for yourself," said Anna."Anna, don't act like you are the victim." Xander lifted her chin, forcing her to look at him, and emphasized, "I deserve everything I have now. As for why I deserve them… Well, you should ask your dad."Anna looked at him blankly. She was mentally prepared to suffer through any consequences of a divorce, but she never expected things to end that way. She was both confused and aggrieved when she saw the hatred in Xander's eyes."I have a question. Have you never..."Halfway through her question, Anna stopped herself. She wanted to ask what most women would want to ask their partner after finding out he had been cheating on her, but she was afraid that it would just make Xander look down on her even more.However, even if she did not ask, Xander guessed what was going on in her mind and answered her, "No, I h

    "What… what are you talking about? I don't understand," said Anna, even though she knew full well what he was talking about.'Does he know? That's impossible… No… How did he know?' thought Anna. Her heart was beating really fast. She quickly put her trembling hands behind her back and took a deep breath to compose herself. Nancy had once told her that Anna's biggest weakness was her inability to stay calm under pressure.Tried as she might, her guilt was still as clear as day for Xander to see. However, Xander did not continue. Instead, he circled back to the original topic of changing the company's name."I'm definitely going to change the company's name, and if you don't like it, you can buy back the company shares. Then you can do whatever you want about the company," said Xander. He knew Anna did not have a penny to her name."Those shares were mine to begin with. You're the one who stole it from me!" complained Anna."Anna, nothing in this world was yours to begin with. You'r

She abandoned her plushie as she rushed to him, hands outstretched and waiting to be carried."Uncle Yaacob!

    Randall and Rowena went to the same motel they had the last time.The boss remembered them as the ones who had broken his window, but he did not give them a hard time, warmly welcoming them instead.After all, the money that Randall had given him for it had been enough to replace the windows of the whole building. This time, Randall flexed his financial might again. He pulled out a wad of cash from his wallet and put it on the counter. "Boss, we want an entire floor.""Sir, do you want one room or two?""The whole floor!"Hearing what Randall said, Rowena looked at him in amazement. "Why so many rooms?""Have you forgotten how bad the soundproofing is here?" Randall replied.Rowena was speechless.The hotel owner was a veteran of this. He immediately put the money into the counter drawer and said, "Okay, I'll give you a key to a room on the third floor. I'll go knock on every door to clear the floor out right now. I assure you that you'll have an enjoyable night!"Rowena fel

    "How absurd!"Randall's words were not meant to demean her. He just felt that it was too dangerous for the child to be there.Rowena, however, felt like she was being blamed for no reason."Why are you in a restaurant with this girl in the middle of the night?" Rowena asked Randall.Randall did not answer. He walked forward to help secure Dorothy before he took the dangerous weapon off her hands."Rowena, you should bring Sandy back for now."Rowena did not move."It's too dangerous for the both of you to be here. Listen to me!" Randall told her.Rowena did not respond. Instead, it was Dorothy who spoke: "Mr. Smith, why do you think she can just come and go as she pleases? I already told my subordinates that not even a fly is allowed out."Even though Rowena had been captured, she knew that they would not be able to walk free if anything happened to her so the man would not touch her so easily."Mrs. Browning, you just wanted to talk with me."Dorothy really liked talking to

    Dorothy and Randall found themselves in a standoff. Suddenly, a hushed report from her subordinate reached Dorothy's ears. "Someone's outside, claiming to have information on Mr. Randall.""Who? Could it be that Yaacob has returned earlier than expected?" Dorothy, determined to prevail over Randall that night, insisted, "Don't let him in; I can't believe he would just barge in!""It's not Mr. Randall. It's a woman, accompanied by a child." The subordinate hesitated before providing more details.Rowena, who had given birth just four months ago, had swiftly regained her pre-pregnancy figure. She wore a navy blue striped shirt knotted at the waist, paired with snug jeans, showing no signs of her previous pregnancy. From behind, she looked slender and youthful, resembling a young girl. Yet, in front, she cradled a baby.The infant, only three or four months old, sported a hat with a few wisps of hair peeking out and a pacifier. The child's intelligent eyes darted around, exploring the

Opting against hiring a nanny, he naturally assumed the responsibility of caring for his pregnant wife.He would juggle the demands of running the company and handling household matters.
