Chapter 151

Author: Happy Breadwinner
Evan and Beverly gazed at each other from afar. He stared at her deeply for a few seconds, his gaze gentle.

Only after seeing a maid lean close to whisper something to Beverly and noticing something flicker in the latter's eyes did Evan finally leave with peace of mind.

However, anxiety gripped him again once he was seated in the back of the Rolls-Royce.

"Assign more bodyguards to protect Beverly," he ordered.

Meanwhile, Beverly dismissed the household staff for the day and watched them depart cheerfully. Yet, the bodyguards stayed stationed outside her door.

Her expression remained calm as she closed the door and changed her clothes.

When she came downstairs, the law firm's private courier had arrived. She signed the agreement to transfer her shares to a charitable foundation, updated the list of supervising attorneys, and sent the man on his way.

Beverly was now dressed in a plain white shirt and jeans, and she had her long wavy hair tied back in a ponytail. For a moment, she

    Seeing that Beverly was truly angry, Evan softened his voice. "Alright, I'll wait outside the door then. I'll only come in again when you've forgiven me."After the door closed, Beverly walked over to the bed and pulled back the covers. Then, she lifted the entire bottle of prenatal medicine to her lips and downed everything.Her expression was ice-cold as she pressed a hand tightly over her abdomen.Marcus had said that she wouldn't feel a thing, but the stabbing pain from earlier told her otherwise. She'd vomited up half a pill, so the drug might not have taken effect.Meanwhile, in the guest room downstairs, Marcus said, "Mr. Gray, a research organization overseas has invited me to serve as a medical consultant. How would you like me to proceed?""I won't stand in the way of your career," Evan replied coolly. "But when I need you, you must return."Marcus gave a small nod.A bodyguard slipped a check worth ten million dollars into Marcus' pocket. Marcus inclined his head in a

    "Mr. Gray, should I get the anesthetic?" Lucas asked."No, anesthesia has side effects," Evan replied.Since there was no surgery involved, there was no need to put extra strain on Beverly's body.The master bedroom was so quiet that only the faintest rustling could be heard.Beverly's heart clenched. James was already at Alterra, waiting for the chance to take her away.The organization needed her desperately, so she couldn't afford to delay her return for anyone's sake. And yet, the child she was carrying was her only regret and comfort in this lifetime. Beverly couldn't lose her.Her fingers loosened around the pill bottle as she decided to confront Evan directly.The moment she opened her eyes, Evan scooped her up and suddenly pressed his lips against hers.Something foreign slipped into her mouth and brushed the back of her throat.Evan forced the pill down, deepening the kiss so she couldn't resist. Then, he murmured coaxingly, "Be good, honey. Everything will be okay so

    By the time Evan turned to look at the staircase, no one was there. "I'm sure you know the consequences that await you if you mess this up again."Marcus was, of course, terrified. Even so, he still tried to plead with Evan earnestly."Mr. Gray, I discovered significant advancement in medical technology at the symposium I attended abroad. We can now perform a C-section before the baby reaches full term and continue gestation in an external incubator."Even if the baby has heart issues, we can address them early. This way, not only would the risk to Mrs. Gray's health be minimized, but she also wouldn't have to go through the pain of losing another child. Mr. Gray, Mrs. Gray is carrying the daughter she's always wanted."Marcus grew increasingly animated, convinced that he could persuade Evan. After all, what father wouldn't love his own child?Evan's brow furrowed slightly at the word "daughter", and his voice turned colder still. "Does Beverly know she's still carrying a baby g

    By right, Evan ought to be happy knowing that Beverly trusted him. Yet, her calm, indifferent demeanor made it seem more like she didn't care at all.A sense of foreboding gripped him, and he refused to let her out of his sight.He handed the phone back to the sales attendant and told the bridal boutique's manager to fire the two attendants.Within minutes, the video disappeared from the internet without a trace, though it still lived on as fodder for idle gossip.Beverly's composure left Cindy just as puzzled.The latter clearly knew everything. Yet, even with the video exposed, she still hadn't lashed out. If she really loved Evan that much, then…Cindy pushed open the fitting-room door. "Beverly, I'll behave myself and be Calvin's wife. I'll cut ties with Evan completely, and I won't try to seduce him or destroy your family again. So, please—I'm begging you to spare my parents."Beverly fixed an icy gaze on Cindy and said, "When they were carrying on their affair right under

    "It didn't go with the dress," Beverly replied with a detached expression.Just then, a sales attendant brought over a hand chain bracelet and slipped the ring and bracelet onto Beverly's ring finger and wrist, respectively."Will this work, Mrs. Gray?"Beverly gave her a faint smile. "It's perfect."Evan wrapped his arms around Beverly from behind, his large hand clasping hers as it rested against her lower belly. As he admired her in the full-length mirror, he noticed that the faint imprint of her wedding band was still visible on her ring finger.He felt something was off, but since Beverly seemed to be in good spirits, he didn't press the matter. Instead, he paid her a compliment. "Honey, you look in everything."The child in her belly seemed to sense something and stirred slightly. Beverly's gaze darkened. How could there be movement when the embryo hadn't even formed yet? It was only her own heart that had suddenly been stirred.After all, for the daughter in her womb to
