Chapter 235: Chapter 235: I’m Pregnant (39)

Just changed clothes, Stellan Quinn ran back again, "They’ve already gone to catch them, they won’t get far."

"Stellan, I suddenly thought, emergency medicine isn’t 100% effective. If one of them gets pregnant, your family’s assets will be in jeopardy. Why not turn the situation to our advantage?"

"What do you mean by turning the situation to our advantage?" Stellan Quinn didn’t understand.

"Take this opportunity to transfer your father’s assets into your name; it’s the safest move."

"But my father’s assets have already been notarized."

"He definitely has to voluntarily transfer them to you. Listen to me." Grace Hughes whispered a few words in her ear, then looked at her seriously, "Stellan, think about last night, four maids scrambling to climb into your father’s bed, it’s enough to prove that many lowly people covertly want to become your stepmother."

"They’re dreaming!" Stellan Quinn gritted her teeth, "With me here, none of them will succeed."

"Miss." The butler hurriedly shouted from outside the door, "There’s a new development."

Stellan Quinn quickly went to the door to ask, "What happened?"

"That little Fen has audio evidence. Our people tried to bribe her without success. This time, sir might be facing jail time. The lawyer hired is on the way."

Stellan Quinn turned to exchange a glance with Grace Hughes and saw her nodding, then Stellan went downstairs.

"Young Master, evidence is conclusive for Benjamin Quinn’s attempted rape. With our secret assistance, he’s expected to be sentenced to three to ten years in prison. Moreover..." Nathaniel Green paused for a moment, "Grace Hughes called to say Stellan Quinn will soon be able to transfer Benjamin Quinn’s assets into her own name. When the final procedure is done, I hope you won’t break your promise."

Jacob Green didn’t even lift his head from the book he was reading, "I certainly won’t break my promise."

Nathaniel Green was taken aback, "Young Master, are you really letting her come to your side?"

"I may be willing to let her come, but that’s if she can manage to do it."

Nathaniel Green clutched his chest, "Young Master, you’re going to scare me to death."

"Mason Baker is still with the Northriver Police Station. Keep an eye on him, ensure Michael Quinn is imprisoned for a few years without any errors."

"Understood, Young Master. Rest assured, there will be no mistakes."

"Alright, you can go now."

Oliver Green quickly stepped through the door with a joyful expression, "Young Master, great news."

"You found a girlfriend?!"

"Young Master, you’re teasing me again."

"Oh, I thought you might find a girlfriend before Nathaniel." He put the book down, "What’s the great news?"

"Northriver Hospital sent a message saying James Foster has woken up!"

"Really?!" Jacob Green smiled knowingly, "That’s great."

He immediately picked up his phone and sent a message to Lucy Eaton: [I’m going to Northriver later.]

[Didn’t you just go back yesterday?]

[My friend has woken up, I need to visit him.]

Lucy Eaton’s hand trembled with excitement, he finally woke up, not letting her down after calling out to him with Watson every night.

Edited several times before a sentence was correctly entered, [Meet tonight?]

[Meet what? Can’t touch. You only know after contact how much you enjoy playing the game of letting loose then pulling back.]

[I’ll come to find you tonight.]

Nathaniel Green and Oliver Green watched their family Young Master smile broadly and exchanged a glance.

"Young Master, do you have a new woman in Northriver?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Recently, you often smile at your phone alone, looking like you’re in love. Could it be you really...have someone?" Nathaniel Green tentatively asked.

"Do you wish I have or not have?"

Nathaniel Green and Oliver Green didn’t say anything.

"Why did you both fall silent?"

"Both hope you have and hope you don’t have." Nathaniel Green paused, then added, "Hoping you’ll be as happy as before, also hoping that person can still be Young Madam."

Jacob Green continued without a word, but instead instructed, "Prepare the plane, I’m going to Northriver to visit James Foster."

"Alright."

When they arrived at Northriver Hospital, the room of James Foster was already crowded with people.

His relatives, colleagues, parents, and Watson were all there. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Seeing him arrive, everybody left, leaving only a few people in the room in an instant.

James Foster, though awake on the bed, still couldn’t speak like before, only brokenly.

"Jacob Green... it’s Lucy... who called me... awake..."

Mother Foster explained beside him, "Since waking up, he has been saying it’s Lucy calling him. It seems Lucy was thinking of our James even after passing away, hoping he’d get better soon."

Jacob Green knew Lucy Eaton must have come to the hospital several times, "Take good care of your body, recover quickly to how you were before, then she’ll feel more at ease."

James Foster nodded, tears streaming down from the corner of his eye.

After dinner in the evening, Lucy Eaton changed clothes to go out, but Elliot Gill stopped her, "Where are you going this late at night?"

"Just going for a walk, I’ll be back soon."

"I’ll go with you." He changed his shoes, "I’m free anyway."

"No need." Lucy Eaton refused, "I’ll go to the mall to look around and buy something. Don’t go with me."

Elliot Gill raised an eyebrow, "Then I definitely have to go with you, I’m really not comfortable with you going out alone at night."

Lucy Eaton’s plan to find Jacob Green failed. No matter what she said, Elliot Gill insisted on going with her.

On the way to the mall, she messaged Jacob Green saying she wouldn’t be coming.

Jacob Green, who initially expected her arrival, was instantly displeased.

Breaking promises.

Clearly said she would come.

Just when he thought that, he received her second message.

She said Elliot Gill was worried about her going out at night, so she used an excuse to go to the mall.

Jacob Green checked the distance to the nearest shopping mall from Newhope Commons, then went out.

Bumping into each other by chance isn’t hard.

The hard part is acting unfamiliar after meeting, which requires a lot of acting skills.

"President Green, what a coincidence, meeting here."

Jacob Green pretended to be surprised, "Yeah, what are you shopping for?"

"My girlfriend said she wanted to look around, I’m accompanying her."

"Oh, I see." Jacob Green calmly said, "Since we’ve run into each other, do you want to sit and chat a bit later?"

"No problem, you choose the place."

Jacob Green nodded, "I’ll go first then, see you soon."

Elliot Gill nodded, watching him walk away, concealing the hint of a smile on his face.

Lucy Eaton wandered in the mall, her steps halted at the entrance of a traditional clothing store.

A very beautiful red and white sheer neck overlapping long dress was hanging in the window; Elliot Gill’s eyes instantly cooled down when he saw the dress.

Grabbing her hand, he walked away.

"What’s wrong with you?"

He pursed his lips silently, just kept walking out.

Lucy Eaton found him truly strange, "What’s wrong with you? Speak up."

"Nothing, I just suddenly feel some pain in my chest."

Out of medical alertness, "Could it be myocarditis or something, let’s go to the hospital."
