All Chapters of Pregnant for the Sterile Billionaire: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Benjamin took her other hand and held both of them gently between his own."Don't worry." He said passionately, his eyes on her. "It's been taken care of."His voice was calm, but Petra's expression showed that she was far from satisfied.The answer had not solved anything inside her mind.If anything, it had only created several new questions.She looked at Benjamin carefully, studying his face for any hint.There was something he was deliberately keeping from her.She could feel it clearly.The events at the company had already made everything more confusing.People had listened to Benjamin without hesitation.The staff had been terrified of him.Even the men who followed him behaved differently around him.Then there was the sudden news about her salary.Her money was ready without her requesting anyone to prepare it.The women who had mistreated her had also been fired immediately.None of that looked normal anymore.Petra swallowed quietly before finally asking what had been trou

"You don't have to pay." Vanessa said casually as Petra rushed to her mother. "From now on, this hospital will not take care of your mother."Petra stopped beside the bed, staring at Vanessa as though she had completely misunderstood her words.Her mother's weak condition made Vanessa's statement even more difficult for Petra to accept.She looked down at the old woman before turning sharply towards Vanessa."Why won't they take her?" Petra snapped, turning between her helpless mom and Vanessa, her fists clenched. "You have no right to do that!"Vanessa slowly rose from her seat beside the bed and faced Petra without any sign of concern.She adjusted her short, expensive white gown before folding her arms comfortably across her chest.The confidence in her posture suggested she already considered the hospital her personal property.Petra stared at her, trying desperately to understand how Vanessa could make such a decision.Her mother was unconscious and needed medical attention more

"She's not back yet?" Benjamin asked, his eyes lifting toward the staircase before settling back on the old woman."No." Helen twisted the hem of her wrapper, worry thick in her voice. "I thought she was with you, sir. It is very late now, and she is carrying a child. Could something have happened to her?"Something inside Benjamin's chest tightened at once.It felt sharp and sudden, like a fist closing slowly around his heart.The clock on the wall seemed louder than usual, ticking into the silence between them.He looked toward the window, but the compound outside was empty and dark.He said nothing at first, only clenching his jaw.Then he turned, buttoning his suit jacket with quick, impatient fingers.Without another word, he stormed out of the house, his fury trailing behind him like smoke.Helen stood watching from the doorway, her hands clasped tightly in front of her chest.She whispered a short prayer under her breath, hoping nothing terrible had happened to Petra.*******H

"Sir, I'll take Mrs. Shaw to pick out a car she likes tomorrow." Mr. Kingsland said, his hands folded down respectfully as he stood before Benjamin. "She'll never come home soaked in the rain like today again."Benjamin remained seated comfortably on the couch, one leg crossed over the other throughout the conversation.A black-covered file rested securely inside his hands as he carefully read through its contents.His attention never left the pages despite hearing everything Mr. Kingsland had just reported.The room remained quiet except for the occasional sound of paper turning beneath Benjamin's fingers.His calm expression revealed very little about what he was currently thinking.Helen, who had remained quietly nearby, stepped forward after Mr. Kingsland finished speaking with Benjamin.She had clearly spent time planning something she believed would please both Benjamin and Petra."I've also spoken to the jewelry store clerk." Helen added. "I'll take Mrs. Shaw there to select so

"Why were you at Snowfield Hospital?" Benjamin asked, cutting her off before she could complete her sentence.There was a brief silence from the other side of the call, creating an uncomfortable pause between father and daughter.Vanessa's cheerful expression immediately disappeared as she sat quietly, staring ahead without saying anything.She struggled to decide what explanation would sound convincing enough.She knew her father well enough to understand that lying carelessly could create an even bigger problem.Her fingers tightened around the phone while she carefully searched for a believable answer."I just thought that hospital has potential, so I invested in them." She finally said, her voice subtly shaking. "I also did a body checkup!"The explanation came quickly, almost as though she had rehearsed it inside her head.She hoped Benjamin would accept it without asking another question.Unfortunately, the silence that followed made her heart beat faster.Benjamin didn't immedi
