Chapter 879 Winnie Sought Comfort
As soon as Lynn thought that Olivia might be sick, she became immensely interested.
The flames of jealousy in her eyes gradually flared up.
Today, she came to the OB-GYN director to forge a medical record stating that she was infertile due to a miscarriage in her early years.
A couple of days ago, after Jeremy and Lawrence achieved great success in the business world, Jeremy immediately abandoned her.
The past half month of being coerced into pretending to be in love and getting engaged had pushed Jeremy to his limit.
He just wanted to ensure that Lynn wouldn't leak the news that he was still alive.
It turned out that the enemy he and Lawrence wanted to take down was Rock.
She learned from the TV news that Jeremy had another mysterious identity: the heir to NexaCore Group, aligned with the President of Veridiania!
What a position of power and influence.
Lynn had only known Jeremy as a formidable person, the heir to the DeRoss Family, ruthless and capable.
Now, Jeremy had an added aura, making him even more dazzling than Lawrence in some respects.
Blinded by power, Lynn found it even more impossible to give up on Jeremy!
These past two days, Jeremy hadn't been monitoring her at the hotel and even threatened to annul their engagement once he returned to Lymington, citing her promiscuous lifestyle and his lack of feelings for her.
Lynn was furious and at a loss, suspecting that Jeremy was in such a hurry because he wanted to break off the engagement and then go after that bitch Olivia.
At this moment, any negative news about Olivia would be advantageous for her!
Lynn sneered coldly, pondering as she walked to the nurse's station and asked, "What illness did that woman have just now?"
"Who?" The nurse looked up at her.
Lynn put on a bright smile, "Olivia, I'm her cousin. I'm here to visit her."
"Why don't you ask her yourself?" The nurse's attitude was cautious, "We have the right to keep the patient's condition confidential."
Lynn's eyes cooled, but she didn't get angry. She leaned closer to the counter, smiling, "How about this?"
She slipped a bank card from under her sleeve.
The nurse looked over and her eyes froze.
"Tell me, what shameful illness does Olivia have?" Lynn arrogantly tossed the bank card.
The nurse took it, glanced around, and lowered her voice, "She's just pregnant, not sick."
Lynn's mind went blank for a moment, then she was dumbfounded.
Her expression became more complex in the next instant, "Did you say Olivia is really pregnant?"
"Absolutely, she's been pregnant for over a month."
Lynn's breath caught, and she immediately thought of Jeremy, her face stiffening.
But pregnant over a month ago? Based on what she knew, Jeremy was faking his death and missing at that time, and Olivia was looking for him. Where could they have met?
An illegitimate child! Lynn's lips curled into a sinister smile, her mind racing with excitement.
Could it be that thug Sam raped Olivia, or was it another man?
In any case, the child was unlikely to be Jeremy's, which was fantastic news that she had stumbled upon.
Lynn couldn't hide her cold smile, thinking, 'Olivia, does Jeremy know you're pregnant?'
Lynn's mind was racing, a sinister chill seeping into her eyes.
She glanced at Olivia's hospital room, "Thank you. How could Olivia be so reckless at such a young age? Do you know how long she'll be hospitalized?"
"The patient was brought in because she fainted from abdominal pain. Her friend was worried and arranged for her to stay for two days."
"That's good." Lynn couldn't stop her cold smile, squinting her eyes, "By the way, don't let anyone know I came to inquire. Just do your job well."
The nurse was startled by the ruthlessness in Lynn's eyes. Wasn't she claiming to be Olivia's cousin?
She didn't even go in to visit, just spent money to find out about such a private matter.
The nurse felt that she shouldn't take the bank card, but she eventually nodded.
Only then did Lynn feel at ease, striding away with a sinister eagerness on her lips.
By the coffee vending machine in the hallway, Winnie heard Lawrence's busy, deep voice, "Winnie, why are you calling me during work hours? What's up?"
His rich voice inexplicably calmed her restless heart.
Winnie took her coffee, sipped it, and barely regained her composure.
Leaning slightly against the window sill, she spoke softly, "Can I bother you for a moment, Lawrence?"
The line went quiet, and Lawrence's steady footsteps could be heard.
He left the conference room, and only his male breathing remained around him, "What's wrong, Winnie?"
His low voice made Winnie unable to hold back. She sighed, "Lawrence, be my listener for a moment, no need to give your opinion. I'm telling you, Olivia is pregnant. She was just brought to the hospital and found out."
"The situation now is that she doesn't know, but when I told her after she woke up, she didn't accept it. It's very troublesome. She's hiding the cause of her pregnancy and the identity of the child's father! I kept pressing her, but she wouldn't say, and I have no way to find out."
"Mia is not even three years old, and Olivia has been single for three years. Where did she get a child? It must have been an accident with some man. I don't know what she's worried about or what she's thinking. What does she plan to do? I have no idea, but she's like my family."
Lawrence could hear her sadness and anxiety.
Olivia was probably like Lena to Winnie, closer than family despite not being related by blood.
However, Lawrence was still shocked by the news of Olivia's sudden pregnancy.
Although he had no feelings for women other than Winnie and didn't care about them, his shallow impression was that Olivia was a very disciplined woman who almost never interacted with men.
The only person she might have been close to seemed to be Jeremy.
Lawrence was stunned by his own thoughts.
On the other end, Winnie was also thoughtful, moving on to her next point, "Olivia doesn't have any men around her, I'm very sure of that! The only men she interacts with are her work colleagues and Jeremy."
"She avoids that bastard Sam like the plague. And if the child's father were Sam, I don't think she would have reacted the way she did just now. I want to ask you, Lawrence, did Jeremy ever tell you that he was recovering on Azure Isle after he got injured?"
"Adam, his uncle, also confined Olivia on Azure Isle over a month ago. I want to know, was Jeremy on Azure Isle the whole time, and did he and Olivia meet during that period? Have you asked him about these details?"
