NovelEnglishThe Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 274: Long-awaited PregnancyJocelyn didn’t notice that her mother was missing until the next day.She had been with Luke in a hotel the previous day.
When she got hand saw that Fiona was still not back, she instantly smelled something fishy.She then asked Bernie
uneasily, "Dad, where is my mom? It’s so late.Why isn’t she back hyet?"
Bernie harbored inveterate hatred for Fiona now that he knew what she had done.Her whereabouts was no longer his business.
With his legs crossed, he glued his eyes to the TV and responded, "Am I your mother’s keeper? I don’t know where she is, and
nor do I care!"
Jocelyn didn’t have the strength to argue with her father.She just slammed the door and left angrily.
Since she couldn’t get through to her mother or find her, she decided to file a missing person report at the police station But the
efforts of the police were also futile.
When they checked the surveillance cameras along the way, they found that Fiona was last seen at the shopping mall.
But then she had suddenly vanished out of sight.
The cops blamed this on blind spots and the busy crowd in the shopping mall.
They indirectly told Jocelyn that there was nothing more they could do.
Since Jocelyn had exhausted all her options, she was forced to ask Luke for help.
"Mr.Turner, please helpthis time." She burst into tears and was out of breath.
Luke still fancied her for the tbeing, so he was prepared to do whatever she wanted.
Luke had the best private investigators on his payroll, so he thought this matter was a piece of cake.
Much to his surprise, his men found no trace of Fiona after combing the nooks and crannies of the city.
"Do you know if your mother offended someone? My men weren’t able to find any clue.Perhaps one of her enemies is behind her
disappearance," said Luke.
The Turner family was one of the most powerful families in Seacisco.
Only a few people could compete with them.
Hot tears welled up in Jocelyn’s eyes when she heard this report.
After a long silence, she remembered that Charis previously said that Jhad the support of Brandon.
She snapped her fingers and said, "Yes, I suspect... I suspect Brandon Larson!"
‘I’m sure that man has a hand in this.
After all, Jhad escaped death by the whiskers.
It seems he’s taking revenge for Jbecause of what happened!’ she pondered.
Brandon was one of the few people that Luke feared.
He didn’t want to get into his bad books.
At this moment, he reasoned that it wasn’t worthwhile to offend such an important person for the sake of Jocelyn.
He said lightly, "Anyway, I’ll continue to help you look for her.That’s the best I can do."
Jocelyn wasn’t born yesterday, so she knew he didn’t want to go all out in helping her.She becmore worried after hanging
up the phone.
All of a sudden, Jocelyn felt sick.
The feeling of nausea went up to her throat.She rushed to the bathroom and vomited.
What’s wrong with me? Why did I throw up all of a sudden? Was it something I ate?’ She was still trying to fathom why she was
nauseous when something dawned on her.
Her monthly period had been delayed for more than two weeks.
Jocelyn rushed to the hospital and did a pregnancy test.
The test result showed that she had been pregnant for a month.It was undoubtedly Luke’s child.
Although Luke had ordered her to take contraceptives whenever they had sex, she didn’t obey him because Fiona told her not
to.
Her mother had said that having a child for Luke would help her becthe new Mrs.Turner.
Jocelyn’s joy knew no bounds at this moment.
Her hope to survive this precarious situation was instantly revived.
‘Wow! This is great news.
This baby cat the right time.
I’ll use my pregnancy to secure a more stable position in Luke’s life very soon! It’s a known fact that rich and powerful families
always attach great importance to the eldest son.Luke only has a daughter now, so he would be glad to have a son.Something
tellshe will showerwith goodies and makehis wife after I tell him that I’m carrying his child.There is no way he will
abandonwith this pregnancy, nor will he wantto get hurt.I won’t be in grave danger even if my mother tells Brandon that I
had a hand in Janet’s accident"
At the thought of this, Jocelyn smiled happily.
Getting married to Luke had been her greatest ambition ever since she started dating him.Now that she was pregnant with his
child, she was confident that she was about to clinch the Mrs.Turner title.
