The person on the phone was naturally Lillian.Lillian was taken aback when she heard the female doctor's words; her worst fear had actually happened. After all these years, the baby girl she had discarded had returned to Perona's side. If Perona found out that Judy was her daughter, Amelia's true identity would be exposed.Lillian panicked; she could not let Perona find out. The best way to ensure this was to prevent Judy and Perona from having any contact. Behind Judy was Lewis, and she could not touch Judy. This predicament truly puzzled Lillian....After the examination, Judy and Lewis were about to leave when they ran into Perona in the corridor.Judy was surprised, "Aunt Perona, what are you doing here?"Lewis noticed Perona's presence and thought about the time Perona had asked him about Judy's prenatal examination date and the hospital. The encounter was definitely not a coincidence.Perona smiled, "I'm here for a full-body checkup. I come every year for a checkup, Judy. Are
Judy called John after Serina left, "John, there's a performance by Serina two days later, I have three tickets, do you have time to go and see?"John asked, "The day after tomorrow? What time? If it's in the evening, I can make time.""At 7:30 PM," Judy heard car horns in the background when John spoke, and asked, "Are you outside?""I'm going to the orphanage to visit Bob, the director. I haven't been back to the orphanage in a long time, so I thought I'd drop by today and buy some things for the kids." John replied."You should definitely pay them a visit." Judy said....At the orphanage.In the office,"Bob, the director." John knocked on the door.Bob smiled and said, "John, what are you doing here?""Bob, I came specifically to thank you for what you did. I wanted to say thank you." John said.Bob asked, "Where are your parents now? Haven't they caused you any more trouble? They were quite heartless to sell you back then, and now they're slandering you. I'm quite angry; how can
Lewis didn't say anything: "Alright, I see. You and Linda have been working hard tonight, so stay a bit longer."After giving the order, Lewis hung up the phone.Antonio never takes care of company affairs, so why did he go to the company today?Lewis couldn't stop thinking about it and decided to call Antonio.Antonio hadn't slept yet and was delivering late-night snacks to the naive Philip. Seeing the incoming call, he quickly answered, "Lewis, why are you calling so late at night? Is something wrong?"Without beating around the bush, Lewis asked, "You went to the company today?""Yes, I did," Antonio admitted. "I took Philip out for a walk today, and we passed by the company, so I went to check on you. Linda said you hadn't come, so I left. What's up?""Did you see a data report on my desk when you went to the office?" Lewis asked in a serious tone."What report? I didn't see it, Lewis. Did you lose something?" Antonio said, "I didn't see it; I just went to the restroom and then le
Dave quickly dug up several earthworms from the flower bed."Sir, here are the earthworms you wanted. Are you going to use them for fishing?" he asked.Isabella also thought the worms were for Philip's fishing and said, "Lewis, why are you so nice to him? He tried to kill you before, don't you remember the wound on your back?"Lewis looked at the wriggling earthworms and, due to the fertile soil of the flower bed, they were quite large.With a cold gaze, Lewis stared at Philip: "The doctor said you've become stupid. Today, I want to see if you're really stupid or just pretending. Eat these worms, and I'll believe you're truly stupid."Hearing this, both Isabella and Dave were taken aback. Were these worms meant for Philip to eat?And upon hearing that he was expected to eat worms, Philip almost vomited. Seeing the writhing earthworms, his scalp went numb. Eating them was practically a death sentence.Philip was genuinely terrified.But if he didn't eat them, his act of pretending to
Pizza PlaceJohn knew Judy was at the pizza shop, so he went to find her, have lunch, and ask about the birthmark."Judy, do you have any birthmarks or anything like that?" John asked."Yes, I have a blue birthmark on my waist, shaped like a crescent moon. I've had it since I was born," Judy replied."Really?" John felt a knot in his stomach. This could mean that the person Lillian was looking for, mentioned by Bob, was very likely Judy.Just as John was about to ask Judy if she knew Lillian, Avery approached and said, "Judy, Lillian is here again. She wants to have lunch with you."Hearing Lillian's name, John became even more certain that this Lillian was Judy's mother. She had come to see Judy multiple times, which must have been to confirm her identity.John also wanted to meet Lillian to find out if she was genuinely acknowledging her daughter, so he said, "Let her join us for lunch."After a while, Lillian entered.Lillian was now almost certain that Judy was the baby girl from
John's words had an interrogative tone, aggressive and forceful.Judy looked at John in surprise but didn't think much of it, assuming that John was just defending her.Lillian was at a loss for words when asked.John's gaze was fixed on Lillian as he continued to press: "If your own daughter was right in front of you, could you really bear to not acknowledge her?"Lillian felt uneasy under his intense scrutiny, thinking subconsciously of Amelia.With her own daughter right before her, she had to be ruthless and could only let Amelia call her aunt.Lillian was thinking of Amelia, while John was referring to Judy. Although they were not on the same wavelength, Lillian's reaction and facial expressions matched the situation.Seeing Lillian lost in thought and looking guilty, John became even more certain of his guess that Lillian was Judy's biological mother.Judy sensed the tension and felt strange about John's strong emotions towards Lillian during their first meeting.What kind of st
John turned around and saw Judy, which startled him: "Judy, why you come out?""I noticed you seemed upset, so I came out." Judy raised her eyebrows, "Truthfully, do you know something?"Lillian had just left, and John was about to as well, which definitely seemed suspicious.John scratched his head. In front of Judy, he couldn't lie, but he also didn't want to upset her, so he spoke ambiguously: "I just heard that when I went to see Dean Bob, he mentioned Lillian had visited him.""Does Lillian know Bob?" Judy was curious, "Lillian isn't married, yet she has a daughter. I didn't expect her to be quite the player. Do you know who her daughter is?""I don't know." John stammered, "How would I know, Judy? I have things to do, I'm leaving now."Since Lillian didn't acknowledge Judy, John naturally didn't dare to speak out of turn.John left in a hurry, and Judy didn't have the chance to press further.She was still curious, wondering who Lillian's daughter was....A few days laterOn th
Judy also found it strange that if Lillian really had a daughter, there would be no reason to hide it.Even if Lillian was a single mother, no one would have anything to say about it, as she had the ability to support her child.The fact that even Lewis didn't know about this made it even more peculiar.Judy said, "John told me that Lillian has a daughter. Lillian should have visited the orphanage I was at before. She went there to find her daughter.""If you're curious, I'll ask my mom later," Lewis said, "or I can ask Perona.""I was just curious."...The next day.Judy went to visit John at the hospital after having breakfast.When Judy arrived, Susan was taking care of John in the ward."Judy, you're here," Susan smiled and said, "I heard John was hospitalized, so I took a leave and I can take care of him here."John felt a bit embarrassed. He didn't want Susan to take care of him, but Susan said she needed to repay her debts of gratitude.Since Susan had already taken leave, Joh
