Chapter 104
Kashton stayed up all night and nearly got himself exhausted.
The three women also received generous compensation to keep quiet about it. As they left, they waved, eagerly
awaiting his next call.
Kashton was left alone in the room, wondering what went wrong.
'Am | using it too much?’ he wondered.
After a night of absurdity, the next day, gentle sunlight filtered through thick clouds, bathing all over Xosa.
Despite the events of the night, the feeble sunlight persisted, and signs of spring were evident with buds
sprouting on the bare tree branches.
Winona drove herself down the straight road with headphones on. She dialed Mildred's number.
"Mom, I'm coming to pick you up. Cwithto the hospital," she said.
After Mildred responded, Winona took off her headphones and threw them on the passenger seat.
Since the last two times she felt sdiscomfort in her stomach, it had beceven more frequent.
She was only four months pregnant, so prenatal checkups weren't very frequent, just once a month. It had been
a while since her last checkup, but feeling increasingly anxious, she decided to go for another checkup, just to
put her mind at ease.
She didn't dare to let anyone else accompany her except her mother.
If anything happened, the consequences would be terrible.
After picking up Mildred, Winona told her about the condition of her stomach.

While listening to Winona, Mildred opened the mirror on the sun visor and adjusted her hair at the forehead. She
looked quite satisfied with the hairstyle she had just permed yesterday.
Huxley had been discharged from the hospital and was recuperating at home, so she had tto dress up and
accompany Winona to the hospital.
"Winona, don't think too much. This is your first pregnancy, and you've been pampered since childhood. It's
normal for the fetus to be a little delicate," said Mildred.
Winona looked at the road ahead, hoping Mildred's words were true.
They arrived at the People's Hospital and went directly to the obstetrics and gynecology department on the
fourth floor.
They went straight to the familiar doctor's office. Since Winona was pregnant, she had obtained a hospital
membership card. From pregnancy to birth, this doctor provided one-to-one services for her. The doctor, Hailey
Henderson, was the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department. She was very famous in this field.
After seeing Winona and hearing about her situation, Hailey directly led her to do a checkup.
Seeing the examination report, her expression didn't bode well.
"Dr. Henderson, is there anything wrong with my baby?" Winona was unusually nervous when it cto her
child.
Hailey put the examination report on the table, glanced at Mildred standing beside her, and said to Winona who
was sitting opposite her, "Have you been angry often recently or haven't had a good rest?" Winona nodded.
Since becoming pregnant, she hadn't been sleeping well. Every day, she kept thinking of ways to convince Jaxon
to keep the baby and how to snatch Jaxon from Mikayla. After achieving all this, she would also want to seize
control of the Ludwig Group.
She was even irritated by Mikayla several times!
"Actually, it's not a big issue, but it needs attention. The baby shows signs of miscarriage. I'll prescribe some
anti-abortifacient for you. You should rest more, avoid exhaustion, relax, and try to stay in bed as much as
possible. As long as there's no bleeding, everything should be fine." Hailey prescribed the medication on the
computer and gave Winona her membership card.
"Okay. Thank you, Dr. Henderson," Winona said as she got up to leave."
"Sure, feel free to contactif you have any questions," Hailey replied.

Chapter 104
After sending Mildred and Winona to the elevator, Hailey went back to her office.
Winona and Mildred went to get the anti-abortifacient and returned to the car.
"Winona, why don't you go back to the Salvatore manor with Jaxon? This way, | can take care of you every day."
Mildred didn't dare to ignore the importance of this child. It was related to Winona's happiness after all.
Winona started the car. "I'll go back to the Lindstrom residence. Jaxon's mother asked us to move back
temporarily the day before yesterday. When I'm in confinement, we can move back to our current mansion."
"Sounds good! I'll arrange for a housekeeper for you. As the pregnancy progresses, it will becmore
inconvenient for you. Having a couple of extra hands will definitely help," Mildred agreed. "I'll think about it.
Jaxon's father isn't easy to deal with. The other day, he even askeddirectly when Huxley would take over the
company." Winona turned the steering wheel and got on the overpass. Regarding this matter, Mildred and Logan
had been planning for Winona to marry into the Lindstrom family. With the support of the Lindstrom family,
taking over Salvatore Group later would definitely make them influential in Xosa. Therefore, even Logan was very
happy that Winona could marry into the Lindstrom family. But unexpectedly, Hugo had other intentions and
aimed for the shares of Salvatore Group. Until now, Mildred hadn't told Logan that Winona had agreed to give
Hugo ten percent of the shares of Salvatore Group.
If she had known it earlier, she wouldn't have agreed to the marriage.

However, Winona was such a romantic. She insisted on marrying no one but Jaxon.
"You should have let your dad meet them in court. After we take over Salvatore Group, you can hold your head
high in the Lindstrom family," Mildred said. She was going to consult a lawyer, but Winona's call had postponed
that.
"By the way, your uncle said that someone from the relevant department seemed to be investigating the car
accident," Mildred continued.
Winona hit the brakes hard and pulled over to the side of the road.
Mildred clenched the armrest and almost hit her forehead. "What's wrong?"
"Mom, do you know what Mikayla is threateningwith?" Winona turned her head and looked at Mildred.
"What?" Mildred touched her forehead and asked. At that time, Winona called and didn't say anything in detail.
She just told them to put the lawsuit aside for the tbeing.
"It's about the car accident at that time." Winona restarted the car and looked ahead. "She knew it from the
beginning, and she even tested me. At that time, | thought she wasn't a threat. | never expected she would go as
far as hiring someone to investigate and use it to threaten me..."
"She hires someone to investigate?" Mildred asked in surprise.
"Who else besides the parties involved would know about this? Who would bother to investigate a case that's
already closed?" Winona glanced at her clueless mother. "Tell your uncle not to cback hfor a while. Let
him stay abroad and enjoy."
"Okay, I'll call him later. But Thalia is ready for an internship. Keep an eye out for an internship opportunity for
her. After all, your uncle can't cback now..." Mildred said. "No problem. Is Thalia studying secretarial
studies?" Winona asked.
Mildred couldn't remember. "I'll ask her later. She just cback yesterday. If you need someone to accompany
you for shopping, you can ask her to help you carry things."
