Mary was genuinely distressed.
The past few months had been too torturous for her.
No one believed her.
She had barely reached the three-month mark and was about to have an amniocentesis with Ellis whenthe reporters threw everything into chaos.
She knew that they had provoked Ellis.
That was why he had done such a thingâ¦
She could even understand Ellisâs actions.â
But she couldnât forgive the harm he had doneâ¦
Mary gave a bitter smile, feeling a heaviness in her lower abdomen. It had been two hours since shetook that pill.
Was her child about to say goodbye to her?
As she was deep in thought, she suddenly heard Keira say, âActually, your child is fine.â
Mary was stunned. âWhat?â
O
Then she scoffed sarcastically. âKeera, you donât have to comfort me. After taking abortion pills, even ifthe child isnât lost, it wonât be healthy, so how could it be
fine?â
Keira coughed. âWell, I switched the abortion pills with
vitamin tablets.â
Mary was dumbfounded.
At that moment, Lewis walked over and explained. âI found out that Ellis had bought abortion pills, so Iwas extra cautious. I told Keera, and she found an
opportunity to go home and switch the pills.â
Mary was flabbergasted. âHow did you find out that Ellis was buying medicine?â
Lewis paused slightly.
Of course, Keira had forced him to have Ellis sign the divorce papers.
Lewis initially didnât want to meddle in their affairs since it was a matter between husband and wife, butKeira pressed him hard, and he had no choice but to have someone check Ellisâs whereabouts andthen stumbled upon this matter.

Lewis coughed. âI saw it by accident.â
Mary, however, frowned. âBut my stomach hurts.â
âThatâs a psychological effect.â
Keira bluntly pointed out the reason.
Mary was speechless.
Keira asked, âDo you feel any different now? Is the pain in your stomach gone, or is it better?â
Mary focused on her belly and realized. âIt is getting better.â
Keira then took her by the arm. âAlright, the choice is yours now. Do you want to tell Ellis this news ornot?â
After pondering for a moment, Mary finally lowered her gaze. âIf I tell him, he probably wonât want todivorce anymore. Better not to say anything.â
Mary didnât want to take advantage of Ellis.
His distrust left her feeling weary in this marriage.
She did want a divorce, especially just now-if not for Keiraâs intervention, he would have killed theirchild.
She wasnât such a saint that she would forgive his

unharmed.
Mary made up her mind and said, âI want to go somewhere no one knows me to get through mypregnancy and live properly.â
âThen go to the South residence,â Keira said. âIf youâre alone in a strange place, Iâll worry too.â
The real story behind Ellisâs azoospermia needed to be investigated.
If someone was targeting Ellis, then would they harm Mary upon learning that her child was fine?
Keira felt that things were getting very complicated.
She helped Mary and got into the car with Lewis.
Lewis still played the driver role; this time, Keira sat in the backseat with Mary.
On the road, Mary bowed her head and shed tears.
Keira didnât know how to console her, so she just gently patted the back of her hand.
After wiping her tears, Mary said, âKeera, Iâm okay.â
Then she looked at Lewis, âThank you for your help this time.â

O
Lewis was about to politely say there was no need for
thanks since he only meddled in her affairs out of
consideration for âKeeraâ.
But unexpectedly, the next moment, he heard Mary say, âKeera, I think you should stay with this gigolo.I honestly feel Lewis, that second-marriage man, is unsuitable for you⦠His wife had just died, and heshamelessly went to the Olsen family to propose a marriage; heâs not a good person.â
Lewis was speechless.
He suddenly regretted helping Mary!
The Gill family.
Austin stormed into the house, heading straight for Lady Gill.
âMom, I was toyed with!â
Lady Gill looked at him coldly. âYouâre stupid. Who else can you blame?â
Austin threw his phone in front of her. âLook, itâs a trap they set for me! It says Ellis has azoospermia,and I believed them! Now look!â

Pointing at the news playing on the TV, he raged. âThe child is his, and the whole scene is a farce,which gives him the opportunity to introduce their new product. They even staged a whole scene,refusing to come out of a car that couldnât be smashed, acting as if the conflict were real, and theirstock price shot up
instantly!â
Lady Gill also felt somewhat frustrated upon hearing
this.
Her face was cold as she looked straight at Austin. âI heard that Miss Keera approached our family fora partnership. She even had someone inquire about us previously, and although I donât know hermotives, this partnership is not happening!â
She angrily picked up Austinâs phone. âAnd didnât you verify this report before releasing it?â
When reminded of this, Austin felt even more aggrieved. âI did verify it! He happened to go for the testsat one of our hospitals. Could our doctors deceive me? Who would have known about this
twist?!â
Lady Gill immediately signaled the butler with a
glance.novelbin
The butler went to investigate right away.
Within five minutes, he returned. âThe doctor, indeed,
works for us. Thereâs no mistake there.â
Austin was puzzled. âThen whatâs going on?â
Lady Gill said with frustration, âThe Olsens have their own hospital. Why would Ellis come to ourhospital to run a test? The samples must have been switched! And heâs been setting this trap for awhole month! What a cunning schemer!â
Austin fumed. âThe people of the Olsen family are so cunning! They look look like decent people, butlook at what theyâve done!â
Lady Gill sighed.
She exited the text message, about to return the phone to Austin when she suddenly caught a glimpseof an unread message from an unknown sender. It was actually sent by Nara. âHello, Iâm the owner ofthe jade piece. May I ask who this is?â
Seeing this message, Lady Gill was taken aback.
She quickly looked at Austin. âWhy havenât you read
this message?!â
Because Austin was very concerned about his sisterâs situation, the contact number left in theadvertisement
was Austinâs.
Austin was stunned, too, and immediately picked up the phone. âIâve been busy dealing with the Olsenfamily stuff, so I missed a lot of messages. Could this be my sister?â
Lady Gill urged him. âMake contact with this person!â
Austin immediately nodded. âRight, it must be my sister! With todayâs advanced technology, thereâs noway someone would impersonate her!â a
