Chapter 310 Implementing the Plan
Hospital, Sebastian's ward.
"Are you kidding me? Are you sure you're not seeing things? This is serious. You could get into big trouble for saying the wrong thing." Megan answered the call, her eyes showing fake tension, making sure Jennifer noticed but pretending she didn't. "Alright, got it. I'm on my way."
Hanging up, Megan clutched her phone nervously, walked over to Jennifer, and whispered, "Mrs. Kingsley, I need to step out for a bit. Something urgent came up, and it seems pretty complicated."
Jennifer frowned, clearly annoyed, and asked, "What is it? Let someone else handle it. You're pregnant. Aren't you worried about the baby?"
Brian was lounging on the living room sofa, reading a document. His sharp eyes caught sight of Jennifer and Megan, and he said, "What's going on? Spill it."
Megan glanced cautiously at Sebastian, who was resting with his eyes closed, bit her lip, and gave the two of them a look, signaling that it wasn't something Sebastian should know about.
Jennifer had a hunch; it had to be something about Brooklyn.
Using the sofa to help herself stand up, Jennifer said, "I'll go with Megan. You stay here with Sebastian."
Brian stayed silent and kept reading his document.
"Is it another scandal about Brooklyn?" Once outside, Jennifer asked, her tone dripping with disgust and her attitude ice-cold.
Megan linked arms with her, trying to cover for Brooklyn, whispering, "I don't know if it's true or not. Someone just called me, saying they saw Brooklyn in a lounge on the top floor, and that lounge belongs to Zach."
"What did you say!" Jennifer's eyes widened instantly.
'The media just exposed Brooklyn hugging some random guy, and now she's messing around with Zach? Unbelievable!' Jennifer thought.
"The top floor, right? Follow me!" Jennifer was furious. She couldn't stand the humiliation Brooklyn brought to the Kingsley family anymore. She wanted to catch Brooklyn herself and kick her out of the family for good!
Megan took a timid step back and said, "Mrs. Kingsley, I'm scared to go. Brooklyn's jealous of me and hates that I'm carrying Sebastian's child. If I go, she'll definitely try to hurt me."
"I'm here. What are you afraid of? If she dares to mess with you, I'll make sure she regrets it!"
Megan's lips curled up slightly as she lowered her head, gently holding Jennifer's arm and smiling sweetly. "Thank you, Mrs. Kingsley."
The elevator went straight to the top floor, and Jennifer stormed out, heading directly to Zach's lounge. "Brooklyn! Open the door!"
Jennifer pounded on the door so hard that it felt like the whole floor shook.
Megan coyly hid by her side, softly saying, "Mrs. Kingsley, this isn't exactly a glorious matter. You should..."
"Not glorious! If she dares to do it, she should be known! The Kingsley family's reputation has been completely ruined by this slut." Jennifer said angrily.
Hearing the loud knocking, Brooklyn rubbed her head and opened her eyes. The night sky outside was already filled with stars.
She had slept too long, and her whole body felt heavy.
'Is it an illusion? Am I still groggy from sleep? Otherwise, why would I hear someone calling me, and the voice seems somewhat familiar.' Brooklyn thought.
"Brooklyn! Come out here!"
The knocking became clearer, and Brooklyn realized it wasn't her imagination; someone was indeed knocking.
'And it's Jennifer's voice! Why would she be here?' Brooklyn thought.
A wave of unease swept over her, and Brooklyn threw off the covers, got out of bed, and shook her head several times to focus her vision.
Turning the doorknob, she hadn't even seen who it was before Jennifer's hand landed a fierce slap on her face!
The slap was so forceful that it almost knocked her out. Her face already had a scratch from a previous hit, and this slap not only caused excruciating pain but also reopened the wound, with blood oozing out, making her pale face even more ghastly.
Brooklyn looked up in shock, and even Megan was startled.
"Jennifer, what are you doing?" Brooklyn didn't have time to cover her wounded face. Her expression turned icy, the chill reaching her heart, almost breaking her.
Jennifer had certainly thrown a lot of slaps today!
"Brooklyn, you've become shameless to such an extent. I'm truly impressed. Sebastian is lying in a hospital bed, and you're hiding in another man's arms! Is the man in the news Zach? When did you start messing around with Zach?" Jennifer's words were like sharp knives stabbing into Brooklyn's heart. Forget about dignity; she felt like her heart was being torn apart.
