NovelEnglishChapter 69 Chapter 69 After all, before knowing that Nyla couldn't have children, Jordyn wouldn't have dared to provoke Nyla while pregnant. Clark hadn't exposed Jordyn's clumsy acting in front of Nyla just now simply because she was carrying his child. That didn't mean he was a fool.
Jordyn's fingers trembled as she bit her lip, tearfully looking at him. "Clark, I didn't mean that..." Impatience flashed in Clark's eyes. "You better really didn't." Jordyn bit her lip, sounding disappointed. "Were you... Usingto test Ms. Jayston just now?" Clark knew she had plotted against Nyla but hadn't exposed her. She had thought he had feelings for her, but it turned out she had deceived herself.

Tears fell from Jordyn's eyes as she watched him leave. Subconsciously, she touched her abdomen. Although she knew she could not beat Nyla now, she had a trump card with this baby.
One day, she and the child would weigh more than Nyla in Clark's heart. He hadn't paid any attention to Nyla while they were hospitalized together because she was feeling unwell from the pregnancy.
As Jordyn thought about it, determination flashed in her eyes.
In another VIP ward on the shospital floor, Lucia was infuriated upon hearing that Nyla had been discharged. They had both fallen down the stairs, but why had she ended up with multiple fractures, bruises all over, and a moderate concussion, while Nyla only had minor scratches and a mild concussion" Lucia had initially thought about using Nyla as a shield when they fell, but instead, she had ended up being the one sacrificed for Nyla. The more she dwelled on it, the angrier she became..
A series of knocks sounded on the door. Irritated, Lucia asked, "Who is it?" The door opened, and Kenneth walked in with a fruit basket and an ingratiating look. "Ms. Pollard, I heard you were hospitalized, so I cto see you." Lucia was already annoyed, so her mood worsened at the sight of Kenneth, “What are you doing here?" Even her service staff wouldn't accept such a shabby fruit basket, let alone her.

My wife's medical bills...I can't keep up with them..." Lucia frowned coldly. "I gave you 15,000 dollars, and you're tellingyou're out of money in just a few days? Do you think I'm an ATM?" Kenneth, feeling guilty, awkwardly replied, "I thought I shouldn't always bother you... so I took sto the casino to try my luck. If I had won, I wouldn't have to cto you again. I didn't expect my luck to be so bad..." Chapter 69 +25 BONUS Lucia snickered. "What does that have to do with me? Given my relationship with Mabel, giving you 15,000 dollars was already more than generous."
Kenneth scowled as Lucia refused to give him more money. "Ms. Pollard, are you planning to cut us off? Don't planning to xut forget, Mabel went to jail for helping you. If she hadn't done so, I wouldn't have needed to cto you for money. "If you cut us off, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep quiet about what Mabel and I did for you."
Lucia's expression grew cold, and a murderous intent surged in her eyes. A middle-agedeman with no background dared to threaten her now. Keeping her head down, she suddenly devised a plan. If executed correctly, she could deal with both Nyla and Kenneth.
She looked up at Kenneth with a smile.
"How could I cut you off? It's just that I don't have much money myself. But if you're willing to listen to me, I'll make sure you get more money than you could ever spend in a lifetime." Chapter 70
