Chapter 159 Birthday Banquet (1)
The editor–in–chief was Luna Dempsey, she bent down and picked up the pregnancy test report and
DNA identification report.
Luna was a middle–aged woman in her forties. When she was young, she suffered a heartbreak. She
got pregnant, but the scoundrel of a man she was with started seeing another woman, causing her to
have a miscarriage. This not only hurt her womb, but also made it difficult for her to conceive for the
rest of her life.
Up until now, Luna had never been married. She despised evil and hated irresponsible jerks the most.
Elise had long understood Luna’s temperament, so she deliberately dropped the paper at her feet.
Luna saw the checklist, slightly taken aback, and then handed the paper to Elise. Elise seemed startled
and quickly put the paper into her bag.
Hayden sat at the same table with Luna, noticing that Elise’s face had turned a few shades paler, he
snatched her bag away.
Pulling out the paper from inside, he frowned and said, “Didn’t you say he was going to announce your
pregnancy today, and set a wedding date?”
“Big Brother, it’s okay if he didn’t say anything, I don’t want to put him in a difficult position. Besides,

Hayden interrupted Elise with a stern face before she could finish her words, angrily saying, “You’ve

“He didn’t believe that you were carrying his child and forced you to take a DNA test. Now, he still
refuses to acknowledge the child. What on earth is Rylan thinking?”
A hint of embarrassment appeared on Elise’s gentle and dignified face. She lowered her voice and said
somewhat reluctantly, “Brother, please stop talking. Rylan also has his unspeakable difficulties…”
Luna couldn’t stand it anymore. She couldn’t bear to see a woman pregnant, while the scumbag man
was suspicious and didn’t want to take responsibility for it!
Unexpectedly, Rylan, who appeared gentle and well–dressed, turned out to be this kind of person!
Luna grabbed a microphone from a waiter. As Rylan was helping the old lady off the stage, she asked.
“Mr. Watson has always been praised for his benevolence and medical ethics, and I have always
admired him. But if he is unwilling to give his own

pretends to be virtuous?”
As soon as Luna spoke, the banquet hall fell into a dead silence. Moments later, the entire room
erupted into an uproar.
Rylan, Danna, and Audrey all stayed on the stage.
The guests below had all started whispering to each other, causing a buzz of discussion.
Luna stood up from her seat, like a messenger of justice, she pulled Elise onto the stage.
“As far as I know, Ms. Beltran has been by your side for over a decade,

managing your household affairs, and is a well–known good woman model in the upper circles of Cloud
City! Now she is pregnant, but you refuse to give her a status, and even suspect that the child in her

confirming it’s yours!”
“Mr. Watson, if you don’t give Ms. Beltran an explanation today, I’m afraid this birthday party can’t
continue!”
Luna was the authoritative editor–in–chief of Cloud City, not a journalist from some third–rate
newspaper or magazine. Her words carried a certain authority.
The guests below naturally believed what she said to be true.
Quite a few women had stepped forward to speak up for Elise:
“For over a decade, he didn’t give her a proper status. How is that different from freeloading? I can’t
believe Mr. Watson turned out to be such a jerk!”
“Forcing a pregnant woman to take a DNA test, it’s not just scum, it’s downright cold–blooded and
heartless!”
“It was quite pleasant when he was asleep, but he turned ruthless after waking up. Such a person,
surprisingly, managed two hospitals and even became the richest man in Cloud City. It’s truly
disgraceful!”
