Goodbye, Ex-husband! I'm Pregnant with Your Uncle's Child!-Chapter 35 - Rise to Power by Means of Cunning

Julia Land nodded lazily, “Mhm, no problem.”

Stella wore a princess dress, her sweet and lively appearance made her get along well with her classmates.

When she saw Julia Land, she apologized to her classmates, “My sister has come, I’ll go see her first.”

“Stella has a sister?”

“Stepsister.”

A few classmates quietly discussed.

“Sis, you haven’t been home in so long, if I hadn’t asked Mom to call you, you wouldn’t have come back,” Stella linked arms with Julia Land, a sweet smile on her face.

Seeing her sister’s sweet smile, Julia Land smirked, “Didn’t expect you to miss me this much.”

“Of course I miss my sister,” Stella released Julia Land’s arm and instead hugged Grace Land’s arm, “Mom, I’m speaking the truth, right?”

“Right, right, only you miss her, she’s heartless.” Grace Land’s smile was abundant.

Stella was her precious daughter.

The Langston Family had many relatives over today, no guests of notable lineage, just lots and lots of aunts and uncles.

Julia Land wasn’t very familiar with the Langston Family members.

When these relatives came over to congratulate the birthday girl, they also mentioned Julia Land.

“Julia, never thought you would have such luck to marry into the Quarter Family.”

“Right, right, such good fortune, is your husband here today?”

“The Quarter Family is a wealthy family, your family is really blessed.”

This topic made Grace Land’s smile stiffen.

“Aunt, my sister is divorced now,” Stella explained quietly.

The looks that fell on Julia Land were a mix of surprise and schadenfreude.

Julia Land raised an eyebrow, “Doesn’t anyone in your family ever get divorced?”

“…”

Julia Land scoffed.

While the women discussed Julia Land’s divorce, the men were also talking about it.

It was a pity for the Langston Family, having the backing of the Quarter Family could have smoothed many things for them.

Everyone just felt that Julia Land was unlucky.

And then, there were those who speculated maliciously.

Perhaps Julia Land had resorted to despicable measures in the past.

Getting pregnant and marrying into the Quarter Family.

As for why she didn’t have the child, maybe she miscarried.

The gossips had overactive imaginations.

They went to probe Grace Land about it.

“Wasn’t there talk that Julia would receive the Quarter Family’s shares before?

How did they just end up divorcing?”

That was the Quarter Family’s shares, just thinking about it hurt.

Grace Land smiled lightly, “They didn’t get along, so they parted ways.”

Some went to Stella Langston to inquire, “Why did your sister divorce your brother-in-law?”

Stella stuttered, looking somewhat helpless as she said, “My brother-in-law didn’t like my sister, he married her out of compulsion.”

Those who heard this sentence understood the implication.

When Julia Land was eating snacks, she noticed some judgmental gazes from a few aunts.

He despised her.

She was speechless and put down the dim sum.

It was upsetting.

After Stella Langston finished cutting the cake, Julia Land gave Stella the gift Grace had prepared for her and then left the Langston Family home.

From then on, unless Grace was ill, she didn’t plan to set foot in the Langston home again.

Stella Langston watched as Julia Land walked away.

She took out her phone and sent out a message, “Miss Quarter, it’s done.”

**

Julia was woken up by the ringing doorbell in the morning.

It was early.

When she opened the door, she saw Violet.

She was too sleepy to exhibit her usual morning grumpiness.

Violet noticed Julia’s complexion looked fine as he walked in, leaning on his cane,”Sister Land, I bought you breakfast.”

Julia sat on the sofa, squinting and yawning, still wanting to sleep, “I’ll save it for lunch.”

Violet grabbed a blanket and covered her legs with it.

“Sister Land, have you checked today’s trending searches?” Violet opened his phone screen, handed it to Julia, and said, “Sis, there’s trouble.”

Julia opened her eyes and looked puzzled at the top trending search.

“Rising by Pregnancy, Woman Miscarries Again”

“Cunning female secretary, after getting position through pregnancy, gets kicked out of the wealthy house”

Titles like these were catchy, no wonder it got trending.

Julia clicked into it to read more.

The cunning female secretary was her.

The report was detailed, spilled from reliable sources from the Langston Family.

This Miss Land was highly manipulative, becoming Director Quarter’s secretary, used despicable means to climb into his bed, got pregnant, and was then married into the Quarter Family.

Soon after, she miscarried, and the Quarter Family grew sick of her, kicking her out of their home.

The current news report was quite shameless.

Violet couldn’t believe Julia was such a despicable person, “Sis, we have to set things straight.”

Julia watched the word ‘miscarriage’ and her face turned pale.

She wasn’t afraid of these rumors and gossips, but the intentionally forgotten ‘miscarriage’ made her feel suffocated.

The comments below the trending search were almost all scolding Julia for being shameless, cheap, and a terrible woman.

Netizens had even found pictures of Julia.

Her naturally beautiful appearance, when viewed with prejudice by netizens, made them believe she was a bad woman.

“Look at her, she’s such a cunning woman.”

“So skilled in her moves, what a pity.”

That’s how a cyber expose can start.

Julia took a few looks at it, then handed the phone back to Violet, “No worries, I’m fortified, but I find this strange.”

Who wanted to mess with her?

Was it the Langston Family having nothing better to do?

Or someone behind the scenes?

Julia thought of those who hated her the most, Eliza Quarter, Arabella Shaw, Stella Langston.

She then went into her room to get her own phone, registered a Weibo account, and posted a clarification.

“I divorced Noah Quarter simply because there was no love left.

Please refrain from spreading fake news.

Legal supervision incoming.”

While Julia was clarifying the situation online, Violet contacted a lawyer and began collecting the accounts spreading the false news.

“Sister Land, go brush your teeth, wash up, and eat breakfast.

I’ll handle contacting the lawyer,” Violet gestured toward his eye, “You have some sleep in your eyes.”

Julia raised her fist, playfully threatening him.

She then managed a slight smile and went to get herself ready.

No matter what, Julia handled the situation very calmly.

Nevertheless, the trending search remained high.

Julia gave Noah Quarter a call, the best approach being that he also makes a public statement.

When she called, Arabella Shaw’s voice came from the other side, “Julia Land?

You need Noah for something?

He’s not available at the moment.”
