Gilbert was burying his head in documents when a cry of grief came, startling him. He looked up, only to see Madalyn walk briskly in with George's help.Davian rushed over to help Madalyn. "What happened, Mrs. Kooper Sr.?""Gilbert, the baby is no more. My precious great-grandchild is no more," Madalyn said with sorrow.Davian's expression abruptly changed." What do you mean? You mean Andrew and Ada—"Madalyn hurriedly pushed Davian away in disgust and shouted angrily, "Shut the hell up! Stop cursing my precious great-grandchildren here." She shot a glare at Davian for good measure.Davian had an innocent look on his face. 'What have I said wrong? It was she who said that her precious great-grandchild was no more, for God's sake.'Gilbert got up and walked over to help Madalyn sit down on the couch. "If it's gone, it's gone. The pregnancy was just an accident, anyway. It is enough that we have Andrew and Ada."He already knew everything that had just happened to Kisa. Now all th
Mia sneered, "What is impossible? Sharon must have hit her harder than you did. Look at you; you are not even as good as that woman. Sharon knocked the baby out of Kisa's belly with just a few blows. You, on the other hand, are just a smarty-pants who did nothing except get yourself into trouble."Shaun still had bruises all over his face and looked a little funny. He looked at Jensen. "Boss, there must be something wrong with this. I saw her bump her belly against the corner of the coffee table, and that blow was definitely harder than the one Sharon gave her—""That's enough." Jensen looked thoughtfully at the photos in the news. After a long moment, he said, "Let's leave it at that and not mention it again."Shaun was about to open his mouth to defend himself, but Jensen had already gotten up and left.Inside the club, Carolyn paced back and forth in the lobby anxiously. After waiting for a long time, she got impatient and asked a bodyguard, "When is Mr. Tanner going to be avail
Christopher frowned and brushed the non-existent dust off his clothes, as if disgusted by the beggar's filth.The beggar had a cigarette in his mouth and snickered at him. "What is the matter with that disgusted look of yours? Your wife has slept with countless beggars like us, yet you still have the nerve to feel disgusted with me?"Christopher was furious and grabbed him by the collar. "What are you talking about? Tell me clearly."The beggar seemed to have suddenly remembered something and quickly shut up, then forcefully swatted away Christopher's hand and ran to the side of the road. He then looked back at Christopher and sneered at him. "Stop thinking you're superior to us just because you are rich. You are now the biggest cuckold in town. Hahaha!"Christopher was so angry that his face darkened. 'Carolyn hasn't come out all night. That b*tch must have been doing something sleazy with Adrien. But I just did not expect that even a beggar would laugh at me. Have I really become
Christopher looked at Kisa's face carefully through the glass window on the door. He found that, just as the director had said, Kisa looked just like a normal person, not a bit like a patient who had a miscarriage.Christopher frowned when he remembered what she had said to her colleague in the studio that day.On that day, he had heard her tell her colleagues that she was not pregnant. 'Could it be...' Christopher's face changed as he thought of a possibility. He hurriedly turned around and headed for the stairs.Jolina coughed awkwardly and whispered to the director, " Even though Kisa doesn't look very bad, you didn't have to say something like that, did you?"The director also seemed to feel that what he had said was inappropriate, so he smiled at Kisa and said, "I didn't mean it like that. I was trying to say you've recovered really well, just one night and you're back to normal.""What is the use of me recovering well, when my 'child'..." Kisa looked down sadly, her eyes fil
In the evening, Jolina carried her handbag and asked Kisa, "What would you like for dinner? I'll go buy it for you."Kisa looked at her. "Actually, I'm not hurt, so you don't have to be here with me.""That's okay. I have nothing else to do anyway," Jolina said, walking toward the door. "I will bring you some barbeque ribs. I tried it yesterday, and it was pretty good.""Yeah, okay." After seeing Jolina out, Kisa then turned around, still looking out the window in a daze. A door suddenly opened. She turned around and was stunned. "It is you!"It was Christopher, along with two strange men. The two men had a camera around their necks, like they were paparazzi. If Christopher had come alone, she would have thought that her father had developed a conscience and had come to see her. But he brought two reporters with him, showing that he was definitely up to no good this time. And it was obvious that they were waiting for Jolina to leave before they came in.Kisa sat up and stared caut
"Mr. Case, you'd better draw from the veins in her arm, or let me do it."Christopher saw he could not really get the blood out, so he pulled the syringe out and handed it to the reporter while he held Kisa's arm down with a firm grip.Kisa gnawed on the cotton cloth, her eyes filled with appalling hatred. She told herself that she would never forgive this so-called father for the rest of her life, and that she never had a father.The blood was drawn and only then did the three release her.Kisa pulled the cotton cloth out of her mouth and glared at Christopher. "Do you really think that if you prove I'm not pregnant, you can sue me for setting up Sharon?"Christopher frowned with disgust. "What are you trying to pull again?""I'm telling you, the fact that I'm not pregnant only means that she hasn't caused me much harm, but it doesn't disprove the fact that she did it to me first! She poured gasoline in my fitting room and caused me to fall, and I have proof of all that. She can
It was dark, and there was no one downstairs. Jolina frowned, feeling unease. "I somehow feel this is quiet before the storm."Kisa laughed. "Fear not even if the storm is coming; we're in the safety of the house. They can't break in, can they?"Jolina nodded. "You have a point."Kisa handed her a new set of sleepwear and patted her on the shoulder. "Well, you must be tired after a long day, so go wash up and sleep."At the hospital, Christopher stared wide-eyed at the laboratory test results handed over by the doctor. "How is this possible? You must have made a mistake." On the lab report, it clearly showed two weeks of pregnancy.'But Kisa was not pregnant! She admitted it herself, so why did the blood test show she was pregnant again? The doctor must have made a mistake.'He looked at the doctors. "You must have made a mistake, or there is something wrong with the instrument. I want a new test.""Sir, our instruments are state-of-the-art. The possibility of an error is almost
Christopher's face sank, and he signaled the two reporters not to say anything. However, those two reporters were bent on getting away from him and were not afraid of his threats.One reporter said to Kelvin, "Mr. Case is the one who told us to write about Mrs. Kooper faking her pregnancy."Kelvin's expression changed slightly. "And then what?""He then asked us to add fuel to the fire by writing about Mrs. Kooper's viciousness and her framing Sharon for her miscarriage.""Mr. Hoover, don't you think Mr. Case is putting us in a difficult position? Mrs. Kooper was indeed pregnant, and Sharon did cause her miscarriage. So how can we cover this up?""Besides, the Kooper family are now in grief and anger. If we write a false story, we'd only be asking for trouble. So Mr. Hoover, please help us talk some sense into Mr. Case.""Kisa was not pregnant. She admitted it herself. She set Sharon up," Christopher said indignantly.The two reporters ignored him and shook off his hand. Just th
