The woman’s pregnancy 37

Chapter 37
“I don’t know what happened in Elsie today. How could she be so he less and strike ine so hard?”
Missy hadn’t even finished her sentence when Ronald let go of her.
Ronald’s deep voice resonated, “You’re pregnant, Go home and rest.
Missy’s heart skipped a beat. Was Ronald actually concerned about
She looked touched and hesitated, “Will you take me home then?”
But Ronald just walked past her, moving forward.
His serious voice lingered in the air, “I’m here to see Mrs. Forbes. You can take a cab..
Missy stomped her foot in frustration.
When she got home, any trace of grievance was gone, replaced by a mug expression as she dialed a number.
The phone barely rang once before it was
“Josie, did you get it?”
answered.
It was Josie on the other end. “Of course I did. When have I ever let you down? Hold on, I’ll send it to you now!
In no
time, a video was sent to Missy’s tablet.
She played it, and the clear audio of her argument with Elsie at the Hospital entrance filled the room.
The angle was so cunning that it made it look like Elsie had pushed Missy when she fell.
Josie’s voice came through the phone, brimming with pride, “How’s that, Missy? Pretty good, right?”
“That bag you gave me was totally worth it, huh?”
Missy’s satisfaction and happiness were evident. “Alright, I get it. You want that necklace, right? I’ll get it to you in a couple of days.”
“Okay, I have to go. Got things to do.”
After hanging up, Missy watched the video several times, feeling more pleased each time.
She was certain that this would bring about Elsie’s complete ruin.
After a bit of editing, she leaked the video to an internet media influencer.
A few days later, Ronald had to go on a business trip abroad.
During those days, whenever he had a moment to himself, he could stop thinking about Elsie’s resolute figure as she left the hospital.
It was affecting his sleep and appetite, and he couldn’t figure out wir

Thus, he resolved to depart the country in pursuit of a better state minil.
What he didn’t expect was that Missy somehow found out and followed him, checking into the same hotel.
The moment Ronald’s assistant saw Missy, he tactfully excused himself, leaving Ronald and Missy facing off in the lobby.
Ronald’s face was full of impatience. He was dressed in a custom-made dark sult, every crease perfectly fitting his body, exuding a
cold nura.
“Missy, what are you doing here?”
“Don’t tell me it’s a coincidence. I won’t believe It!”.
Ronald’s words cut off Missy’s attent
off Missy’s attempt to claim it was fate.
Missy was wearing a white dress with a strapless design, lace accents on the chest, and her slightly protruding baby bump hidden by the folds of the
e skirt, making it impossible to tell she was pregnant.
Ronald, how can you say that? ? Aren’t you happy to see me here?”
Ronald frowned, clearly not in the mood for a conversation. He picked up his suitcase and started to leave.
But before he could go Mim
go, Missy grabbed his arm.
Ronald turned to see Missy’s tear-filled eyes,
“Ronald, please don’t leave me alone. You’re the only one I can rely on here. Don’t abandon me, okay? I don’t want to be apart from you!”
Ronald suppressed his anger, shook off Missy’s hand, and walked forward.
His voice was cold, “Follow me.”
In a foreign country, he couldn’t just leave a pregnant woman alone.
Ronald requested two presidential suites at the hotel front desk.
The receptionist raised an eyebrow, giving them a look that said, “I don’t get it, but I respect it, and quickly checked them in.
The receptionist thought, There are several rooms in a presidential suite. Even if they aren’t romantically involved, they could each choose a separate room. Is there really a need to book two presidential suites?
Ronald had his reasons.
He escorted Missy to her room and then left on his own.
He wasn’t
n’t there for leisure; he had work to do.
A few days later, it was time for Monica to be discharged from the hospital.
Elsie arrived at the hospital room early, smiling and greeting the nurse inside.
This
s nurse k knew a bit of sign language, and they had a good rapport, with one willing to teach and the other eager to learn.
But today, Elsie noticed that the usually kind nurse was ignoring her

Elsie stiffened, her smile falling slightly Elsie noticed that the doctor and nurses who were unally polite to her were suddenly cold.
She didn’t understand what had happened.
But ever since she was diagnosed as mute, she had often faced such coldness.
She had learned to take it in stride.
Percy arrived with the car, and they helped the stubborn Monica, who insisted on using her cane, into the vehicle.
Elsie sat next to Monica, and they all headed back to The Forbes Villa
The villa looked the same as always, unchanged.
After helping Monica to her seat, Elsie sat close by.
Monica held Elsie’s hand, “Elsie, are you still staying at Dr. Valois’s sanatorium?”
Elsie nodded, signing. “Yes, I’m still there for now.”
She suddenly realized she had been staying there for too long.
And she wasn’t always receiving treatment; it had become more of a place to live.
In a way, it felt like home.
But she knew it wasn’t right to stay there indefinitely.
She signed, “I’m only there temporarily. I’ll find a place to rent soon
Upon Elsie’s arrival, the helper who understood sign language promptly stepped aside and assumed the role of interpreter.
Monica tightened her grip on Elsie’s hand, speaking earnestly, “Elsie, can’t you come back to The Forbes Villa? Just to keep company?”

Elsie refused without much thought.
Her memories of The Forbes Villa from her
her youth were cold and unfeeling.
To be frank, she harbored no fondness for that place.
Monica saw the resistance in Elsie’s eyes and didn’t push further.
