Chapter 474
The policewoman said coldly, “We’ll accompany you here tonight. Rest well!”
Dew said with a pitiful expression, “Now that I’m pregnant, I feel incredibly lonely. Can you call my
parents over…?
When she noticed that policewomen were about to say no, she hurriedly said, “I’m just a suspect, not a
prisoner! I also have human rights! I’m sick and vulnerable , and I want to see my parents. What’s wrong
with that? I don’t care, I want to see my parents! Go get my parents now!”
Although she was throwing a spoiled tantrum, no one could refute what she said.
Even inmates on death row had the right to see their family members. It was understandable that she
wanted to meet her parents.
After an hour, Aaron and Ruby rushed to the hospital.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was only half a month, but the two seemed to have aged a decade. Aaron’s face was full of wrinkles,
and his back was a little hunched over. People could barely recognize him as the famous Daugherty
Corporation’s chairman.
As for Ruby, she looked even older. Ever since Daugherty
Corporation was acquired, she was no longer the arrogant Mrs. Daugherty. She had sought out her
grandparents to beg at their feet and had been scorned multiple times, but she still could not find a
glimmer of hope to bail Dew out. “Dew, what’s wrong?” Ruby rushed over as she said in a trembling
voice, “Did someone hurt you?”
Dew held Ruby’s hand and said gently, “Mom, I have good news. I’m pregnant. You’re going to be a
grandmother…”
Ruby was stunned for a moment before becoming overjoyed. “You’re pregnant? Is it for real? Is it
Duke’s? I’ll find him! He needs to take accountability since he made you pregnant…”
Aaron looked happy as well. “Dew, now that you have Duke’s child, everything can be solved easily…’
“No…” Dew twitched her lips. “The baby is not Duke’s…”
Ruby widened her eyes. “You’ve been together with Duke all these years. Whose would it be if it’s not
his?”
“I’ve been with him for four years, but he never even touched me. There’s nothing I can do!” Dew
clenched her teeth and said, “I’ve been dating another guy. I purposely dated him to humiliate him with
the cuckold!”
‘Well, not only did he not feel humiliated about it, it backfired upon me.’ Dew was extremely furious.
She suppressed her anger and said, “But the child’s father is as powerful as Duke.”
‘Dylan’s clothes, watches, and even cars are as branded as Duke’s…
‘If Dylan were to find out about me, he’ll find a way to ask me to abort the child…’
“Mother, help me contact the child’s father and tell him my situation. He’ll find a solution.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRuby nodded vigorously. This was their last resort. Once she was back home, she took Dew’s phone and
searched for a contact number before dialing it.
Lakeside Villa was a place where the wealthy people in Central City lived. At that moment, the Houghton
family was happily gathered in the living room as they chatted. Suddenly, Dylan’s phone rang. He
glanced at the caller ID and turned the phone over instantly. A young and beautiful woman, who was
sitting beside him, leaned over and asked gently, “Who’s that?”
“That was my assistant. I think there’s a problem in the project again.” Dylan kissed her forehead.
“Charlotte , I need to take this.”
He walked to the balcony before he picked up the call with a frown. “Dew, didn’t I tell you that I’ll be
occupied for the next few days…?”
‘We haven’t contacted each other for half a month. I thought the two of us had cut ties completely. Why
did she call again…?’
