All Chapters of Marriage Fraud? Fine—I'll Rise Higher!: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Michael had started off with a small business, and Colin had taken over once he was of age. Only then did the business start to grow.Michael had only ever seen photos of George in the news, but he'd never paid much attention to them. That was why he hadn't recognized him at first. He paled when Colin told him who exactly George was."What should we do, then?" Michael panicked at first but quickly calmed down. "Since he's so rude, not being able to work with him isn't really a loss for us. Geri said she can handle the Halston family. As long as they're willing to invest, this project will still work out!"He became more animated as he spoke, almost as if Geraldine had already convinced the Halstons to agree.Colin wasn't as optimistic as he was, though. His expression remained grim as he said, "The Halstons and Walkers aren't just business partners. They also go way back. As long as George says the word, there's no way the Halstons will work with us.""Are they idiots? Don't they

Still, Connie faltered when she heard the doctor say Geraldine was close to four months along. "Are you sure you're not mistaken, doctor? She's supposed to be less than three months along. How can she be close to four months?""The medical report can't be wrong. She's 15 weeks along, which is close to four months." The doctor frowned, not happy about being doubted. "As her family, you should be more aware of her situation. Didn't she have any check-ups done before this? How can you not know how far along she is?"Connie had never seen Geraldine's pregnancy report, so she doubted herself at the doctor's words. She dropped the subject, thinking that it didn't really matter whether it was three or four months. The point was that Geraldine was carrying the Gray family's future heir.Once Geraldine was wheeled to a hospital room, Connie sat by her bed, softening her tone as she said, "What happened today was an accident, and no one wanted it. From now on, focus on resting and keeping the

Cornelia's health wasn't the best, to begin with. Even though she'd only fallen a dozen or so steps, the impact took a significant toll on her body.When Sophie arrived at the hospital, Cornelia was still in the ER. George, Patrick, and Letitia waited outside.Sophie hurried to George. She wanted to comfort him, but she had no idea what to say when she saw his red-rimmed eyes. He and Cornelia had such a strong bond; Sophie knew nothing she said then would make him feel better.However, Cornelia had lived at Walker Manor for 50 years and knew everything there like the back of her hand. Why would she have suddenly fallen?Sophie's gut told her something was off, but she couldn't ask George about it. She went to Patrick instead."Don't read too deeply into this—no one pushed her. She missed a step and fell." Patrick sighed. He pulled out his phone and showed her the surveillance footage. "She's getting on in years, so maybe she was just confused."Sophie remembered that she was supp

"Then we'll leave it to you, George. I'm worried about Terry being alone at home, so Patrick and I should get going. We'll take over from you tomorrow," Letitia said without hesitation.Patrick's expression shifted at her behavior, but he didn't say anything to stop her.Once they were gone, Sophie and George were left alone in the hospital room with an unconscious Cornelia."Grandpa…" Sophie started."You should go, too." George cut in. "I know what you want to look into. Go ahead with it, and be honest with me when you tell me what you find out. I'll watch over Lia, so don't worry about her."He hadn't been the head of the Walker family for so many years for no reason. He was sharp. Some things didn't need to be spelled out; he could see them clearly.Sophie nodded. "I'll get going, then. Let me know if Grandma wakes up.""Alright. Go on," he said hoarsely.Once she was gone, George sighed heavily and reached out to gently caress Cornelia's face. Choked up, he asked, "Lia, do

"I didn't do it!" Jason was agitated. "I never forced Geraldine to do anything! She told me there was a problem with her corneas and that she needed to perform a transplant using Sophie's corneas!""Sophie Walker was your girlfriend at the time. Why did you go along with Geraldine so easily just because she asked you to? How are you two related?" a police officer asked sharply. "Based on our investigation, Geraldine Samson has never had a cornea transplant. She never needed Sophie's corneas!""That's impossible!" Jason cried. "I've seen her medical history. There really was something wrong with her corneas!""We have all the evidence. Whether or not you believe us won't change the outcome!" The police officer looked at him darkly. "I'll ask you this once more—did you orchestrate this whole thing? You'll be given a lighter sentence if you confess your crimes, so think before you speak!"Jason didn't say anything. His mind raced as he processed what the officer had just told him. The
