Chapter 827 Quentin Finds Out About the Pregnancy
The pregnancy test report was real.
The name was also real.
But that report was from a few years ago, when Grace was pregnant for the first time and went to see Ruby.
Grace never expected Ruby to keep that pregnancy test report and preserve it so well.
The pregnancy test report Ruby posted online was edited, with the most important date erased.
But the netizens wouldn't care about that.
What they cared about was that a single female celebrity was pregnant out of wedlock, and the timing didn't matter at all.
Grace sat on the bed in despair. She was extremely tired and didn't want to say a word.
Her phone was ringing like crazy, with messages from Linda, Susan, friends in the entertainment industry, and of course, Quentin.
Grace simply put her phone on silent.
Quentin looked at Willie with a gloomy expression. "Give me your phone."
Grace soon saw Willie's name flashing on her phone. She was extremely annoyed and turned off her phone.
It seemed like this way, no one could disturb her, and she could pretend that nothing had happened.
But only she knew that she had indeed carried a baby in her womb.
She was so excited and full of anticipation.
But she was set up by Ruby, which became a permanent pain in her heart.
After several unanswered calls, Quentin was about to head to Kenneth's place.
But Willie stopped him.
"Mr. Taft, since Ms. Morgan chose to turn off her phone, she must be in a bad mood right now."
"Moreover, you two have been having conflicts these days. If you rush in like this, the result will definitely not be what you want to see. In my opinion, it's better to give Ms. Morgan some time."
"Maybe if you wait for her to contact you, there might be a turnaround."
Quentin thought for a moment and found some sense in it.
"Alright, arrange a meeting with Linda. She is Grace's agent, and she must know something about Grace's pregnancy."
"Okay, I'll do it now."
Willie immediately made the call, but Linda didn't come until the evening.
When she saw Quentin, her expression was very cold.
Ever since Quentin abandoned Grace, Linda had harbored deep resentment towards him.
"Mr. Taft, such an honorable person, how do I have the honor of being summoned by you? It's really my privilege," Linda said sarcastically.
"I've seen the trending topics on Instagram, so I don't want to beat around the bush. Regarding Grace's pregnancy, I hope you can tell me everything you know."
"Mr. Taft, I'm really sorry. I only found out about Grace's pregnancy today through the paparazzi's report."
Linda's words were extremely sincere, and her expression was very genuine, leaving no trace of deceit.
But even so, Quentin didn't believe her.
"Do you really not know?"
Linda looked into his eyes and spoke firmly, word by word.
"Mr. Taft, I seriously and responsibly tell you, I really don't know."
"If I'm lying to you, may I be struck by lightning!"
Linda had said this much, so Quentin had no choice but to let her go.
"Willie, what do you think?"
Quentin looked at Willie.
Willie thought for a moment and said, "I don't think she's lying. If she had known in advance, she would have had an emergency plan and wouldn't have let things escalate to this point."
"As far as I know, Ms. Morgan's current agency is already in chaos and can't handle it."
Quentin nodded, "So I have to ask her myself. Prepare the car."
Grace had locked herself in the room for almost the entire day.
Kenneth had just finished work and returned when someone came to report.
"Mr. Powell, you're finally back!"
Hearing the urgency in the servant's voice, Kenneth didn't even take off his coat and rushed upstairs. "Did something happen to Mark?"
"No, Mr. Powell, Mr. Stoll is fine. It's Ms. Morgan. Since you left at noon, she has been in her room all day."
"No matter how I knock or talk to her, she doesn't respond. I'm really worried that something might have happened to her."
Kenneth, equally anxious, ran upstairs, but his steps changed direction.
"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"
"We didn't want to disturb you while you were working at the company."
"Don't follow me. Go find Ford and have him bring the key."
When Kenneth arrived, Grace's door was still closed.
"Grace?"
Kenneth knocked on the door and called out.
As the servant said, there was no response from Grace.
"Is something wrong? You can tell me, and I'll do my best to help you."
"But you can't stay in the room forever."
As soon as he finished speaking.
The butler, Ford Baker, hurriedly ran up with the key. "Mr. Powell, I'm here, I have the key."
"Should I open it now?"
Kenneth stopped him.
Although Grace was staying here, he wanted to respect her privacy and rights.
He had Ford bring the key just in case something happened to her inside.
Perhaps hearing Ford with the key, Grace opened the door herself.
Seeing that Ford was just holding the key and hadn't done anything, she looked at Kenneth gratefully. "Thank you!"
"You're welcome. I'm just glad you're okay. If you need anything, you can call me anytime. I'll be downstairs."
As soon as Kenneth finished speaking, a servant hurriedly ran up. "Mr. Powell, Mr. Taft is here and wants to see Ms. Morgan."
Kenneth didn't panic but calmly looked at Grace. "What do you think? If you don't want to see him, I can keep him out."
"Let him in!"
After all, she had been with Quentin for so long, and she had some understanding of his character.
If he didn't see her today and didn't find out about the truth, he wouldn't let it go.
Since they had to meet eventually, it was better to let him give up sooner.
"Let him in!" Kenneth ordered.
Grace looked over. "Mr. Powell, can I ask you not to let anyone come up and disturb us?"
"Okay, as you wish."
Grace waited in the room.
About three minutes later, Quentin's familiar figure appeared in front of her.
Seeing him this time, Grace was much calmer and could control her emotions well.
But her face was extremely pale.
Her whole body seemed as thin as a sheet, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.
Quentin looked at her with heartache and couldn't help but call out, "Grace!"
Grace interrupted him, "I know why you're here. If you have questions, just ask directly. No need to beat around the bush. I'll tell you everything you want to know."
