Chapter 611 Blood Sample

When the hospital director heard this, beads of cold sweat began forming on his forehead. Concealing the matter was possible, but it wouldn't change the fact that it was disgraceful."Well, I do understand, but ..." he trailed off. He was in a tight spot. If anyone were to discover anything, it wouldn't end well.Laurence cast a condescending gaze at the director. "Dr. Shipherd, what is stopping you? Feel free to speak up." His tone was gentle, but the words falling from his lips were like ice-cold spears piercing his heart.Dr. Smith wiped at the cold sweat on his forehead. "Once the child is out of the special care unit, we will arrange the paternity test as soon as possible."Yet, Laurence wasn't pleased about waiting. He had already depleted his patience and no longer wanted to brew with his resentment. The more he looked at the child, the more displeased he felt; it was enough to ruin his whole day."Looks to me like something is still stopping you, Dr. Smith."The hospital

Chapter 612 I Don’t Like Hearing It

Zoey paled at his sentence. Her fingernails cut so deep into her palms in her clenched hands that she was starting to get numb from the pain. She inhaled slowly and glared at him, yelling, "Are you crazy?!" The child was young and still in danger, yet Laurence wanted to draw his blood. He looked down at Zoey sitting in the wheelchair and pursed his lips. He tried to erase the tiny bit of sympathy he felt toward her. The corner of his lips turned upward into a smile, but his next words were cruel. "It's not my child. Why should I sympathize with you?" he said, staring at her so he wouldn’t miss even the slightest change of expression on her face. However, Zoey wasn’t a fool. She swallowed and cleared her throat. "Why do you want to do that?" Laurence bent down and stared into her eyes, the look in his deep and unfathomable. "You really don’t know my reason?” Before she could answer, he smirked and said, "It's for a paternity test, of course." Zoey's guess was right, but she

Chapter 613 Lying to Him

"I never asked you to come and see him.”"I can lie to you if you're not willing to hear the truth," Laurence said gently as if Zoey hadn’t just been mean to him. "Your son's really cute," he told her curtly. It sounded insincere and hasty. The false compliment did not make her happy. She was speechless and annoyed at the same time. Why couldn't she stop trying to make conversation with him? She knew she should not have paid him any attention.Laurence turned his gaze to her and said with mock politeness, "You aren't happy with my compliment, are you? What kind of praise do you want to hear then?" As he watched Zoey push her wheelchair toward the entrance, Laurence calmly strode forth and followed her. His tall and slender figure starkly contrasted with Zoey in the wheelchair, catching the eye of many. Human nature was hard to change. Laurence had never been an easy person to deal with. Even when he liked someone, he always had his limits and reservations. He wasn’t one to giv

Chapter 614 Compassion-less

Zoey watched her child very closely, so closely that she was haunted by nightmare after nightmare her first two days upon returning home.Laurence tossed the results of the paternity test in front of her, a faint sneer playing on his lips. Step by step, he closed the distance between them, just as he had when he slammed the pregnancy test report in front of her months ago, demanding to know what it meant.Zoey retreated in fear, feeling suffocated under the pressure the flimsy piece of paper inflicted. Before she could speak, the man grabbed her jaw, sending a sharp pain through her body. She heard him coldly state, "Where do you think you're bringing my son?"The scenes in her dreams always switched up abruptly. In the blink of an eye, she saw Laurence carrying her child away without looking back.She was so frightened that she woke up in a puddle of cold sweat. Even though she knew it was just a dream, the fear lingered. Because of that, she sometimes found herself reluctant to t

Chapter 615 Wallowing

Laurence had had enough of the stupid thing in his arms feeding from his bottle. He raised his gaze to look at Zoey, who was a bundle of nerves, and asked again casually, "His name's Teddy?"Zoey was beyond worried that he would "accidentally" drop her child. She itched to lash out at him, but with the child held hostage in his arms, she had no choice but to swallow her anger. She replied slowly, "No, that's just his nickname."She took a deep breath and slowly stretched out her arms. "Come on. He's crying. Let me carry him."Laurence glanced at the plump baby with fair skin. "He won't die from crying another second or two."Laurence had little to no patience with children, to begin with. He felt that as long as the child was alive, how he was raised didn't matter."But he does make a lot of noise when he's crying."Zoey didn't dare snatch Teddy back from Laurence with force. She tried to regain control over herself; the least she could do was not look so flustered. She asked, "W

Chapter 616 Unconscious

Teddy was only a month old. It didn't seem appropriate for him to travel around. Zoey had already chosen a small city she deemed suitable for her and Teddy to live in.Back in university, she had wanted to visit this city in the southwest, but life was difficult back then. The money she earned from her part-time jobs could barely cover her mother’s medical expenses. She’d had no choice but to watch others' online travel guides with envy. Once she started working, she became busy beyond measure. She couldn’t find time to travel. It now seemed like the perfect time. Moving away symbolized an escape from the turmoil in Northwell.That night, Zoey outlined her plan to her mother and uncle. Janet had been in the same position once, so she could see where her daughter was coming from. If they were to keep this up, they would never see the end of their tense relationship. There was no predicting if she would end up yielding at some point. Love grew slowly over days and months, much like how

Chapter 617 Hypocrisy

As soon as the driver saw that Zoey had passed out through his rearview mirror, he diverted from her desired destination and drove onto the viaduct toward a remote suburban area. He wound down the window and the glass partition around the driver's seat to dispel the smell in the car. Only then did he remove his mask.After getting off the highway, he found a spot on the side of the road and pulled over.He wasn't in a hurry. He lit a cigarette and dialed a number. He spoke into the phone, "She's out cold, and the baby's in the car. Where should I take them?"The voice on the other end responded immediately.The man took a drag of his cigarette and answered, "Have the money ready. I'll be there in fifteen minutes." When he was done with his cigarette, the man calmly hit the road again.It hadn't been long since he was released from prison. He rented a nearly abandoned taxi from a car rental company, then attached a fake license plate before heading off. It was the moment he had bee

Chapter 618 I'm Going to the Jenners'

When Zoey woke up in a daze, she had a splitting headache. Her whole body was limp—she felt completely drained of energy. She propped herself up on the ground and slowly got up into a half-sitting position on the ground.Gradually, fuzzy memories began washing over her.Hospital ... Taxi ... Driver ...Baby! Her baby!Color immediately drained from Zoey's face. Her face paled as she frantically looked around, but there was no one else around. Her hands were trembling so much she couldn't even pick up her phone. She swiped at the screen to unlock it and found over a dozen missed calls from her uncle, but she didn't have time to return them now. She had to call 911.When she got through to the police, she spoke at the speed of a tortoise. Her throat was acting up and she could barely gather her voice; this was the only way she could speak at all."My ... my child ... He's been abducted. I passed out as soon as we got into the car. I don't know where I am right now. But I remember w

Chapter 619 Help

Jason braked abruptly and turned back to look at Zoey. He knew he couldn't change anything, so it would be pointless for him to stop her."Okay, I'll take you there."Even though Crescent Constructions had declared bankruptcy, the Jenners didn't sell off their luxurious villa or dismiss a single servant.Jason's car rolled to a stop outside the gate, and the butler began approaching it to inquire about his identity. Before he could blink, a loud bang resonated through the air. The bumper of Jason's car instantly rammed open the wrought iron gate. The black Alando steered into the yard without obstruction.A man was the first to step out of the car, clad in a smart suit and leather shoes. He stood tall, his expression inhospitable. Then, the woman in the back seat exited the car. She looked weak as if the wind could take her with it any minute.The butler trotted over and, upon closer inspection, finally recognized the woman. It was the family's second daughter who hadn't been home

Chapter 620 He Really Is Your Child

It had been a while since Zoey had been to Laurence's office, so she almost pressed the button for the wrong floor in the elevator. There were many missed calls from Laurence on her phone, and her tendency to overthink told her he would be mad that she hadn’t answered his calls in days.With a change of mind, Zoey felt she could apologize and lower her attitude. It wasn't like she had never done so in the past. She couldn't count the number of times she had apologized to him. "Ding!"Zoey snapped out of her daze when the elevator arrived. The people in the office didn't seem to notice her as they focused on their work. Minutes before, Matthew had been shocked to find out she was coming up when the receptionist had called to notify him. Walking over to Zoey, he said, "Mr. Scott is in the office." She nodded, forcing a smile as she gave him a faint response. Then, she paused, politely saying, "Thank you." After that, she mustered the courage, walked up to Laurence's office, and k
