Chapter 601 Trouble

Tristan raised an eyebrow at Laurence’s response. He hadn’t expected him to respond that way to the disturbing news."Aren't you worried? Sarah's mother is frantically searching for her. If something happens to her, you might regret it,” he urged. Tristan may have sounded well-meaning, but only he knew his ulterior motives.Laurence wouldn't have known about Sarah’s disappearance if Tristan hadn't mentioned it. The man pulled a poker face and kept to himself. It was hard to tell whether Laurence had been joking before. "Didn't her mother report her missing to the police? Where am I supposed to look for Sarah if the police can't locate her." Laurence had never been one to mince his words, but his reaction to Sarah's disappearance was out of character. Tristan curled his lips to smile, but all he could muster was a forced one. It slipped his mind that Laurence was too sharp to fall for his little act. He quit playing games and said, "Jasmine suspects Zoey is behind the kidnapping.

Chapter 602 Bastard

Laurence saw no need to bring up something Zoey wasn't involved in, as they were unrelated. It was clear that Sarah's disappearance had nothing to do with Zoey, but he couldn't say the same for Jason. Zoey must have told Jason what Sarah had done at the hospital. His niece saw him as a kind gentleman, but he was ruthless in other ways. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to establish himself so quickly. Besides, as Tristan said, Sarah was Miss Popular. She always carried a smile and hardly stepped on anybody's toes. Laurence could count the number of people she had a beef with on one hand. There was no question about who did it. Before heading to Zoey's place, Laurence sent his men to “have a chat" with Jason. He might get some useful answers out of Jason through discreet inquiries. Of course, Laurence would be lying if he denied having tried to make things difficult for Jason. Zoey would be pissed and probably would hate him more if she found out he messed with her uncle again

Chapter 603 Owe

Zoey fell silent for a bit before speaking her mind, "Isn't it something you’ll do anyway?" The remark packed a punch. Although Zoey slapped his hand away, Laurence put his hand back on her belly. The warmth from his palm seeped into her skin while his other arm circled her waist, making them look like newlyweds on their honeymoon. She gave Laurence an attitude. "The child isn't yours. Why are you touching my belly?" Laurence couldn't feel the baby kick, probably because it was not his. He didn't feel the love or sense of wonder that came with being a father. The child was nothing more than a bastard, and it only got on Laurence's nerves that Zoey was so careful in tending to the child. Still, Laurence had wised up. Even if he despised the child, he must, in no circumstances, show it in the presence of the child's mother. "The baby should be cute when it's born," Laurence said, forcing out the fake compliment as he struggled to please Zoey.He wasn't incapable of making peopl

Chapter 604 Made His Bed

Paying no heed to Jason's question, Laurence asked, "Okay. I won't ask you where she is. Is she alive?" Jason replied, "I don't know. I don't have the answers." Laurence couldn't fire his gun at Jason like before, as he had reservations. Still, it wasn't as if there weren't other means he could use on Jason, but the image of Zoey hissing her hatred at him with tearful eyes haunted him. How couldn’t Laurence be affected by her hatred for him? Her opinion of him mattered a lot. Laurence was at breaking point and couldn't endure any more of her resentment. That was why he couldn't harm the people she cared about. Laurence's relationship with Zoey was like a broken mirror, its shards too sharp to be repaired. He tried to piece it back together, but the jagged edges only cut him deeper.The security detail dispersed at the wave of Laurence's hand. They walked out of the conference room and stood in the hallway outside the door. Laurence believed Sarah was still alive somewhere. If she

Chapter 605 Didn't Come Our Way

Zoey was rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night, and things were not looking good. She may have to deliver her baby prematurely. Zoey hadn't always been in the best of health. Although she was not sickly, her health couldn't handle much stress. Jason scowled with furrowed brows as he waited in the hallway. After some time, a doctor wearing a medical mask emerged from the ward. "The mother isn't doing well. We need to keep her under observation for a while. We recommend an urgent Cesarean if her vitals don't improve." At least the surgery was the best chance of survival for the mother and the baby. Nothing else mattered more to Jason than his niece's life. He asked, "How risky is the surgery? Can you guarantee my niece's safety?" The doctor had thought the guy was the pregnant woman’s husband since he looked so young. It turned out he was her uncle. He replied, "We can't promise that because any surgery comes with risks. We’ll do everything we can to ensure the safety

Chapter 606 All Thanks To You

"Does Laurence know you were hospitalized?"Zoey shook her head. She had never been one to initiate contact with Laurence. There was no way she could've told him about the incident. She couldn't wait for the day she’d never have to see his face again. Laurence had been messaging her for a few days now—only concise, to-the-point texts—but she never replied.Rose was puzzled. How odd for him to suddenly appear at the hospital when he hadn't been there for days. "Could he have fallen really sick?" she speculated bitterly. He showed no signs of sickness earlier, though. He was still his usual sullen, unsympathetic self. He paced so fast, almost like a shooting star in the sky. Even the doctors behind him struggled to keep up.Zoey lowered her head and said, "He does go for a physical checkup once a year."Additionally, the Scotts had their own family physician—they would catch even the tiniest change in their health early. Rose felt Laurence's name no longer ought to be mentioned in

Chapter 607 Evil Deeds

Rose cursed herself internally for letting the cat out of the bag. Why did she have to be so talkative? What use was sarcasm in front of Laurence? He obviously did not care or sympathize.The messages Laurence sent Zoey the past two days had gone unanswered, and his calls suffered the same fate as she had blocked his number long ago. No wonder he hadn't seen her out and about the past couple of days–she had been in the hospital the whole time.To think, she hadn’t even bothered letting him know that she had been hospitalized. If it weren't for Rose, he would have remained completely clueless. He didn't care when the unborn child would be brought earthside. As long as it came out safe and sound. The timing didn't matter to him—it would just be the same as any other day. It was true, children are a hassle."She's here in the hospital?""I've said too much. Just pretend you didn't hear anything from me. It never had anything to do with you anyway. Just stay here and keep an eye on you

Chapter 608 Deaf or Dead

Sarah's most serious injury was not on her leg but her face. She flaunted a conspicuous scar that stretched across her left cheek. Although the wound had already scabbed over and had started to recover, the pink scar was still impossible to ignore.It was a devastating blow for a girl whose vanity formed a big part of her life—especially Sarah, who took pride in her looks. Since her hospital admission, she hadn't looked in the mirror. She couldn't bear seeing the prominent scar that now adorned her face.That day, she had been taken away by a taxi. Looking back now, she must have been set up. As soon as she got into the car, she began feeling drowsy and disoriented, and it wasn't until she noticed the scenery growing increasingly desolate did she realize that something was amiss. Sarah had no doubt those people were after her life that day. If she hadn't used her brains, she would have long sunk into the cement.Recalling the incident still sent shivers down her spine. Turning into

Chapter 609 Looks Like Me?

It all happened so suddenly.Zoey was pushed into the operating room. Her only option now was a Cesarean section. As the anesthesia kicked in, she drifted off drowsily, unconscious of her surroundings.Rose, scared and confused, paced back and forth by the entrance to the operating room. Taking a moment to calm down, she quickly called Jason to inform him about the surgery. After getting off the phone, she let out a heavy sigh. She clutched her phone tightly, debating whether to inform Zoey's mom. She recalled Janet’s poor health and feared the news would be a big blow to her. But something like this ought not to be kept secret.Rose fumbled around her contacts for Janet's number. It took her several attempts before she got through. Suppressing her trembling voice, she explained that Zoey was about to give birth. Janet still couldn't walk for long periods of time, but as she rushed to the hospital, that was the last of her concerns. This was a brand-new experience for Rose, and sh

Chapter 610 Paternity Test

Her daughter's hospitalization due to the risk of disfigurement did not hinder Jasmine's plans.She had long kept watch over the nurses in the department. She was certain at least one or two of them kept unspeakable secrets, and swapping babies would be a piece of cake for them. It was this young nurse's first time doing something such as this. She was so nervous she felt like she could empty her guts on the floor.The family members of the mother were all present at the hospital, and each one appeared more influential than the last. She couldn’t afford to provoke any one of them. She instantly regretted her foolishness and greed for some quick bucks.Her timidity looked like it was there to stay. When Jasmine approached her, it immediately spoke for her and expressed her change of mind.Jasmine didn't expect the nurse to be so spineless as to chicken out like this. Her face fell, and she dropped the pretense and niceties. "Who gave you permission to back out of something you agree
