Chapter 630

Nora hacked into the hospital system and quickly found Cecelia’s medical records.

Cecelia was indeed pregnant. This was clearly stated in the hospital’s medical report.

According to the medical report, Cecelia was already three months pregnant.

Nora initially thought the pregnancy was a fake, but in the end it turned out to be real. This was out of her expectations. Therefore, she thought about it and then checked Thomas’s travel records. When she did, she discovered that three months ago, i.e., the period when Cecelia had become pregnant, Thomas had left the country. Moreover, Cecelia had not gone with him! A suspicion formed in Nora’s heart. She turned off the phone and looked at Thomas. “How long has Cecelia been pregnant?”

Thomas lifted his chin. “Hmph! It’s been over a month!”

It was just what she had thought.

Nora looked down.

Cecelia was lying. By claiming that the three-month-old baby was only a little over a month old, her aim was obvious.

She flashed him a smirk and said, “Oh.”

Then she turned and walked away.

Seeing how she was behaving, Thomas curved his lips in disdain and shouted at her, “Okay, Nora! We’re family, I’m not going to spread the news that your medical knowledge is lacking!”.

After saying this, she looked at Mrs. Livingstone. “Mom, since Cecelia is already pregnant and Helen is infertile anyway, why don’t we just divorce her outright?”

Mrs. Livingstone was still hesitant and in an internal struggle.

Cecelia was not a kind soul-how could she compare with Helen’s well-mannered, sensible, filial personality? Cecelia was a shrew and had long been known in the circle as a rebellious woman.

But when she thought about the fact that Cecelia was already pregnant? Besides, at least she wasn’t a poor girl like the one her son had knocked up in college. No matter, at least it could be said that the two families were equal in status this time.

Mrs. Livingstone made up her mind. “All right!”

The two said goodbye to Elder Mrs. Hunt. How could a person like Elder Mrs. Hunt, who had experienced all kinds of ups and downs, trust a stranger so easily? She asked, “Thomas, is that Cecelia woman trustworthy? You must check everything clearly, okay?”.

Thomas replied, “Yes, yes, I know. Don’t worry, Great Aunt. It’s not that I want to be the father of someone else’s child. I’ve already asked about it a long time ago. We will be able to do a DNA test when I am four months pregnant.”

Hearing this, Elder Mrs. Hunt nodded. “Okay.”

As the two left, Elder Mrs. Hunt looked at the housekeeper. She frowned and asked hesitantly, “Do you think Nora’s medical skills are really that bad?”

If they weren’t good, how would she be able to manufacture the Zabe Corporation’s Soothing Pill?

The housekeeper, however, replied, “Ma’am, who cares if they are good or not? In any case, you’ve got it wrong this time! It just goes to show that Miss Smith merely enjoys a reputation unwarranted by any real ability.”

Elder Mrs. Hunt nodded at his words.

She was right.

She wasn’t going to care whether Nora was an impressive woman or not. In fact, what she wanted was for Nora not to be so impressive. Otherwise, how else was he going to be able to control such a well-known woman after marrying the Hunts?

Nora went straight back to the Smiths’ house after leaving.

Cherry, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch and playing, was looking down on someone. “Hey, the support person, aren’t you the Invisible Man, why are you hiding, have I, a gunner, seen you once in the whole game?”

Hearing this, Pete sighed quietly and continued reading with his head down.

When Nora glanced at the book, she discovered that her son was reading a book on world economics. The corners of her lips tightened a little and she couldn’t help but think that the little guy was indeed a mutant.

He wondered what Xander’s IQ would be – would it be higher or lower than Pete’s?

As she pondered this, Pete, who had noticed her coming in, hurriedly got up. He handed her the glass of water in front of him. Then, he pulled out a pair of pajamas and handed them to her. “Mom, are you tired?”

Nora: “…”

The longer she lived with Pete, the more she discovered that the little guy was actually very loving and endearing. However, his behavior made Nora feel the desire for motherly love from her son.

Indeed, she had very little time to devote to her children.

Thinking about this, she took Pete’s glass of water and took a couple of sips. Then, she placed it on the coffee table beside her and picked up her pajamas. He looked at Pete and asked, “Pete, do you know Helen Stewart?”

Pete’s eyes lit up at the name and he nodded. Then he said with a little embarrassment, “She’s quite nice. Uncle Thomas often visits the Hunts, so great-grandma told him to play with me. He’s very well behaved at first glance, but in private he used to call me a ‘little idiot.’ After he married Aunt Helen, every time he came over, she would bring me toys. When Uncle Thomas would scold me, she would also kindly stop him…”

At that time, Pete had never experienced a mother’s love, nor did he feel anything toward the nannies’ attempts to please him.

But Helen was truly kind and caring. She was also full of love and patience for the children. People like her made Pete feel very comfortable.

When Nora heard what she said, she finally understood why Justin had asked her to help them.

Just because of the way Helen had kept Pete company, she couldn’t let the matter drop. With that in mind, Nora suddenly said, “Pete, I’m going out for a while.”

Pete nodded.

Nora turned around, walked out of the house and headed for Helen’s parents’ house, the Stewart residence.

To be honest, she hadn’t at first intended to bother with the Livingstone problem. After all, Thomas’s paternity had nothing to do with her.

But since Helen had treated Pete kindly, she couldn’t stand by and wash her hands of it.

When she arrived at the Stewart residence, the guards stopped her.

When she said she was looking for Helen, the guard flashed her a wry smile and said, “They’re…kind of busy right now, so it’s not convenient for outsiders to come in.”

Nora frowned.

Just as she was about to respond, a car pulled up beside them. Then, a scruffy looking woman got out. She was a little plump and looked a little like Helen. She said to the guard, “Is this…?”.

The guard explained, “Mrs. Jessica, this is Miss Helen’s friend. She has come to visit Miss Helen, but… Miss Livingstone has come with Mr. Livingstone and they are making a scene in the house, so…”

When Jessica Stewart, the Stewart’s eldest daughter, heard this, she said bluntly, “For her to come for Helen, she must be Helen’s friend. How can you refuse her entry? News of the scandal will spread sooner or later, so what is there to fear? Let her come in with me.

Only then did the guard let Nora pass.

Nora raised her eyebrows, finding the young woman quite interesting.

The two entered the residence together.

They parked the car. Before they were through the door, they could already hear an arrogant Mrs. Livingstone saying, “They have to get a divorce! But it’s all because their daughter is infertile, so we’re not giving her anything! Besides, the Stewarts didn’t clarify their situation before the marriage, so this is a fraud! On top of that, you’ve also wasted three years of our time. Otherwise, the Livingstones would have at least two children in the family by now! They have to make this up to us.

Helen’s mother, Mrs. Stewart, said angrily, “Divorce? So I can make way for that home-wrecker?! Mrs. Livingstone, are you so anxious that you can’t wait another second?”

Mrs. Livingstone scoffed, “Cut the crap. In any case, it’s the Stewarts who are in the wrong! As for Cecelia’s pregnancy, Thomas did not cheat on her. Because Helen is infertile, he went off with another woman!”
