Chapter 304 Who Was the Daughter of the Lewis Family 1
“Daisy, what time did Dennis go out in the morning?” I said, finishing my cereals.
“He left at dawn, in a hurry.” Nanny Daisy spoke. After a pause, she looked at me and continued, “I heard a few days ago that Olivia Pearson might not be the daughter of the Lewis family. Rumor has it that they made a mistake in the past.”
I was stunned. Did Dennis go out for this?
I didn’t ask further. I was planning to go back to City P, and I was arranging to bring Clarie Bear with me. But I had not been in my best health these days, so I asked Alex to take her for me instead.
I was at YT Community.
When I arrived, Luis was cooking in the kitchen. Alex was holding Clarie Bear in his arms. He saw me coming in, he pouted, “Clarie Bear, look who’s here. Clara, I thought you’ve vanished.”
I said apologetically, “I went to country M and just came back last night. How is Clarie Bear doing these days?”
Alex nodded, seeing Clarie Bear reaching out for my hugs, and he handed her to me, “This little guy doesn’t appreciate formula after she’s been breastfed.”
I hugged Clarie Bear, and she did seem to have gotten a little thinner. I sat on the sofa, looked at Luis, and saw that he was concentrated on cooking.
I couldn’t help looking at Alex and saying, “Are you going to go back to City P?”
Alex frowned, “Will you be going back, too?”
I nodded, “The Gibson’s has a new product to release, and I have been in charge of this project. If I don’t go back, it just doesn’t make sense.”
He looked at Clarie Bear and couldn’t help but say, “Are you planning to take Clarie Bear to live in City P?”
“Mhm-hmm.”
Alex went silent, his eyes couldn’t help looking at Luis, and he said, “Are you planning to go to City P?”
Luis stopped what he was doing and looked back at me, “The credit lending business and my family are both in Newton Town, if anything, I will only be going to City P on a business trip.”
After a pause, Luis looked at me, “About the Gibson’s, you can resign from the job and go back to Newton Town. The George group’s business in Newton Town is basically handled by outsiders, you are the wife of the young master of the George group, it makes sense for you to enter the George group and help manage it.”
I pursed my lips and subconsciously wanted to refuse. He continued, “Dennis has big ambitions, but Newton Town is where the George group was established, so it is definitely better to handle the business by yourselves than handing them in others’ hands.”
I was silent for a while, thought about it, and said, “I left the George group because of a mistake, and now even if I want to go back, I have to at least make a success first. The Gibson group’s AI project is on me, and I haven’t achieved anything yet. I don’t want to make the same mistake again.”
“So, what are your plans?”
“Perhaps after the AI project hit the market successfully. By the way, I saw Hank Gibson.” Claire Bear was probably hungry, and she kept rubbing my clothes with her small hand.
Luis’s eyes sank, “Yank Gibson’s only son, Hank Gibson?”
I nodded.
Alex was confused, “Didn’t he die in a car accident? How could…”
I nodded, “I saw him in Country M, and I still couldn’t figure out what had happened. I had no idea what was going on with him at that time.”
After that, I got up and carried Clarie Bear into the room to breastfeed.
…
I originally planned to bring Clarie Bear back to T Villas, but Alex was worried because he saw me drive here alone, so he asked me to pick her up another day together with Dennis.
After coming out of YT Community, I had nothing to do. Seeing that it was still early, I wanted to go to the cemetery to see Grandpa, Grandma, and Diana.
The car got stuck in a traffic jam halfway through, but fortunately, it wasn’t stuck on the highway.
Because of the long traffic jam, many drivers got out of the car to check out what was going on.
The driver who had figured out the situation turned back and said helplessly, “Why are young people driving so carelessly these days? They crashed so badly. There’s still a pregnant woman in the car, and she’s in labor now. It’s too dangerous.”
“Looking at the man who drove the Maybach, he was only in his twenties, but he had an extraordinary temperament. He didn’t look like an ordinary playboy. How could he drive so carelessly? It might take a while before it could get well-handled for us to drive forward.”
One of the drivers spoke.
I couldn’t help checking the time. The cemetery was extremely far from here, and it was probably too late to get there when the traffic jam was over.
Simply, I got out of the car, looked sideways at the car in front of me that had the accident, and couldn’t help frowning, a black Maybach.
The license plate looked very conspicuous and familiar.
When I realized it was Dennis, my brain hummed, my legs went soft, and I slumped straight on the ground.
“Ma’am, are you okay? What’s wrong?” A cab driver who had gotten out of the car to check the situation helped me up.
Maybe the driver knew how to perform first aid treatments. He raised his hand and applied pressure on my philtrum. The pain came from the nerves, and I recovered.
I stared blankly at the driver and said, “Thank you!”
“Don’t mention it, I’m just glad you are okay!” The driver held me by my arm and said, “Are you having low blood sugar? Should I take you to the hospital?”
I shook my head, let out a breath, and stood firm. I calmed down after a while, then looked at the driver and said, “No, thank you. I’m fine!”
Relieved from the emotions just now, I moved my body and walked forward step by step.
Because the road had been jammed so far, it took a while for the ambulance to get in, and there were people around the accident scene.
I cut through the crowd and walked in.
In the crowd, a neat man in black was protecting the woman beside him with a cold face, holding a phone in his hand, as if he was looking for emergency paramedics.
There was a lot of blood on the ground, and it was from a pregnant woman. Some people who had studied medicine were clearing out a space among the surrounding people, and some people were giving first aid to the pregnant woman.
My eyes fell on the pregnant woman’s high bulging belly. I accidentally touched the blood run down on her legs, and I felt like I was struck by lightning.
My lower abdomen began to throb in pain involuntarily. I subconsciously covered my stomach and couldn’t help but step back.
Dennis, who was on the phone, seemed to have noticed me as well. His eyes darkened and he walked towards me.
Olivia Pearson, who had been guarded behind by him, turned pale.
“Why did you come here?”
My lower abdomen hurt so badly, and I couldn’t help frowning. Looking at Dennis, I said, “I happened to drive by here, are you alright?”
He shook his head, seeing my face turning pale in pain, he hugged me horizontally, and said in a hoarse voice, “Where is your car?”
“In behind!”
Dennis put me back in the car. I felt a bit better, and I was slightly relieved.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
He frowned at me, “Why does it suddenly hurt?”
I shook my head, took a breath, and said, “It may be because I saw the pregnant woman just now, it should be the PTSD sequelae of the last time.”
After a pause, I looked at him and said, “Why… Why are you here?”
Olivia had already followed him to me. I hadn’t seen her for a few days, her face was pale and desolate, and she seemed to have suddenly lost a lot of weight.
Dennis looked calm, “I was on the way to send her to the hospital. And I got distracted on the way, and bumped into someone.”
He said it lightly, but the truth was probably not that simple. Dennis always drove steadily and safely, so it was almost impossible to cause an accident due to distraction.
I looked at Olivia subconsciously and saw that her face was still pale. Her eyes were red and swollen, obviously, she had just cried.
Seeing her look at me with resentment and hatred in her eyes, I couldn’t help frowning – Had I offended her again recently?
When the sound of the ambulance appeared, Dennis raised his hand, smoothed my hair to the back of my ear, and said in a warm voice, “Don’t think too much into this, babe. Go home and wait for me. I’ll come back after I deal with this, okay?”
