Tommy watched all that happened. He thought for a while, then ran upstairs to look for Jack. Jack carried Tommy and walked down the stairs. He saw Leia fall to his knees to beg for forgiveness from her mother. "Please forgive me, Mom. I'm begging you, please don't be angry, alright? I don't want the baby anymore. I'll go and get it induced tomorrow. Don't cry." "Are you crazy? I won't let you do that," Queenie exclaimed in surprise. Jack frowned. "What's going on?" As soon as he spoke, the three people in the living room turned their heads toward the stairs. When Leia noticed him, she stood up and turned her body away. As her adoptive daughter for twenty years, Leia knew her father's temperament. If she remained on her knees, Jack would definitely keep her kneeling as punishment. The floor was hard, and she had a bulging stomach. She would not be able to take it. "Dad." Leia shifted her body to hide the bulging stomach from him. Jack had already noticed her stomach. H
When Leia heard that, she quickly fell on her knees. She had to keep the baby no matter what! "I don't want to lose the baby, Dad. I love the baby! Don't you want it to call you 'Grandfather' after it's born?" Jack was finally moved, but it was not because of Leia's words. He knew how it felt to lose one's child. Even though Bianca eventually returned to their side, they had lost a lot of time with her, and the regret lasted forever. He decided to wash his hands of the matter. "You can keep the child, but the child has to have a father," Jack said. That was as much as he was willing to concede. Leia was overjoyed. With their support, she believed that she could convince the elders in the Hilton family. "I'll let Brody know so that he can come over and have a meal with us." "Tell him not to bring any gifts. We can't afford to accept them," Jack said coldly. "Yes." Leia could not be bothered about everything else. She instantly took out her phone and called Brody. Bianca
The door opened five minutes later. Nina thought that the caretaker had returned with breakfast. She continued to pack her bag without looking back. "Thank you, Ma'am. You can put the breakfast on the table." She did not hear any reply after a while. When she lifted her head, she was utterly shocked. The person who had entered her ward was Pierre Mallory, the man whom she never wanted to see again. Every time she saw him, there was nothing but trouble! Nina's body started trembling as she recalled the things that he had done to her. She did not want to show her weakness to him, but the fear was borne from a primal instinct. She feared that devil of a man! The wounds that he had inflicted on her had never healed. Whenever she saw that pair of sinister eyes, she would feel as though her body would break out in blisters from which foul blood flowed! "Heh, you're really in the hospital. No wonder that crazy b*tch Bianca Rayne came to look for trouble!" Pierre was satisfied when
"Bea!" Nina collapsed at that instant, and the sound of glass crashing on the floor made her tremble. If Bianca and the nurse had not come in, the shard of glass would have pierced her neck.Pierre squinted and looked at Nina who was holding Bianca and crying. He felt as though a needle had stabbed his heart.A security guard pushed him and said impatiently, "Why are you still standing here? Do you want us to send you to the police station?"They would usually give them a warning, note down their appearance, and prevent them from entering or leaving the faculty. If the person was a repeat offender, then they would send them to the police.Pierre retracted his gaze, squinted at the rude security guard, and said, "Do you know who I am?"The security guard looked at the man who was dressed in branded clothing. He was not afraid of Pierre. After all, they had seen a lot of men who dressed in counterfeits show up in the wards. He thought that Pierre was one of those fools. "I don’t c
After they were done with groceries, Bianca drove Nina home. She planned to cook, so she parked the car in the villa.Nina got out of the car and stared at the Maserati in a daze."Nina, what's the matter?" Bianca also noticed the Maserati, which she knew was not Nina's car.Nina had a complicated look on her face. "He's here.""Who?" Bianca was puzzled and glanced at the numbers on the license plate. The license plate ended with three eights. The person who owned the car was well to do. Bianca immediately knew who the car belonged to.Percy Mallory."Master Percy of the Mallory family." Nina retracted her gaze. Percy had not called her for a while. She thought that he had gotten bored with her and did not expect him to appear out of the blue.Percy treated her place like a hotel. He came and left as he pleased.Bianca frowned, grabbed the groceries, and held Nina's hand. "Don't be afraid, I’ll go in with you."Nina smiled gratefully at Bianca. She was not afraid, but consider
Bianca was gentle and lovely. Luke felt a surge of warmth in his heart from her words. He nodded and said, "Yeah."Bianca looked into his eyes and touched the screen. She had been doing it a lot recently. As long as they were video calling, she could not stop her hand from touching the screen. It was as if she was trying to touch Luke.She missed him more and more with each passing day. If she were not caught up with her responsibilities in A City, she would not hesitate to buy a plane ticket and fly to New York to be by his side.Before she was together with Luke, she had never thought of herself as a clingy person. At that time, she lived alone and did not rely on anyone.However, she realized that she loved being near him after they got together.Bianca saw Jason appear in the video and asked, "Do you still have work to attend to?"Luke looked back at Jason and asked, "What's the matter?"Jason realized that he had disturbed Luke and Bianca’s catch-up. He shook his head quick
"Dad, Mom, Sister, why are you so early?" Leia knew that Queenie had invited Bianca over. Although she was unhappy about it, she did not show it. She had to behave with poise in front of the Hiltons.Brody greeted them, "Uncle Jack and Aunt Queenie, good afternoon."Jack saw the two but did not see the rest of the Hilton family. He put away his smile and turned serious. He handed Bianca’s phone back to her."Good afternoon." After greeting them back, Queenie glanced at Jack, stood up, and took Leia's hand. "How did the check-up go?"Leia paused, and her face quickly turned pale.Upon seeing this, Queenie was concerned and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"Leia shook her head, returned to normal, and said with a smile, "Mom, I’m just messing with you. The check-up went well, there’s no problem.""Cheeky! You're going to be a mother but you're still so naughty. Sit down." Queenie nodded at her and pulled the chair out for Leia.Leia smiled and felt inexplicably guilty.
Leia touched her belly and said coquettishly, "This is your grandson. We have to at least wait until he’s born..."After three months, her pregnancy was deemed stable but she was still very cautious. She did not allow Brody to touch her even when he wanted to, so she was not willing to take the risk with Julius as well.The Hilton family only agreed to let join their family because of Brody's persuasion and the role that Julius played. He had persuaded Tania to agree to the marriage by bringing up the baby.Leia, on the other hand, had used herself to persuade Julius.Men like him looked like great husbands on the surface, but in fact, he had cheated on Tania behind her back more than once. All she needed to do to win him over was to go along with his likes. Julius's gaze was aggressive as the corners of his mouth curved into a lazy smile. He did not care about the baby at all. "I’ve been waiting for too long.""Can I interest you in other offerings for the time being? What do y
