Chapter 349 Hold Me Accountable
The soup splashed on Daisy, and she angrily shouted, "Lillian!"
"Are you trying to nourish my body? The only thing you want to nourish is the placenta in my belly! I won't drink this soup. Next time anyone dares to bring it to me, I'll pour it on her face!"
Lillian forcefully pushed Anna, who was blocking her way.
Anna grabbed her, and Lillian's cold eyes swept over as she mocked, "Be careful not to hurt the child in my belly; otherwise, who can save Jeffery."
Anna felt frightened and withdrew her hand.
Lillian grabbed her bag and strode away. Behind her, Daisy cursed, "Do you really think you're fearless just because you're pregnant? Look at your background. If it weren't for the pregnancy, Jackson would have divorced you long ago!"
Lillian walked out the door, and Shirley was already waiting.
"Lillian, why do you look so pale?" Shirley frowned when she saw Lillian.
Lillian still felt a strange taste in her mouth, shook her head, and asked, "Do you have any water?"
Shirley opened the car door, took out a bottle of water, unscrewed it, and handed it to her.
Lillian walked to the roadside to rinse her mouth, and Shirley patted her back.
The sunlight made Lillian's pale face evident, and the fatigue between her brows was clear.
Shirley thought of the last time she saw Lillian's eyes were still bright with expectations for Jackson.
It had only been a few days, and Lillian had been reduced to this state.
Shirley cursed, "Jackson supports Wendy while he is with Star. With his capabilities, he shouldn't be a president. Instead, he should just go out and make money by accompanying women every day. That way, he wouldn't feel wrong. For a jerk like him, you have to be completely indifferent. Lillian, you're right to give up!"
Lillian rinsed her mouth, feeling much fresher, and nodded to Shirley, "Having gone through this experience is enough for me. Let's go."
The Frane Mansion.
Daisy was furious, making a phone call to Jackson in the living room.
As soon as the call connected, Daisy couldn't wait to shout, "Jackson, you married a good wife! It's outrageous. I got up early to personally make soup for her and rushed to bring it to the Frane Mansion. She actually smashed the bowl along with the soup and stormed out in a huge rage!"
Jackson had just arrived at the hospital.
Because of Henry, Susan's health had suddenly deteriorated, and she hadn't been good these past two days.
Hearing Daisy's complaint, Jackson became sullen and irritated and said in a deep voice, "Then don't make soup anymore. There are plenty of servants at the Frane Mansion who can take good care of her."
Daisy thought he would at least scold Lillian, but as she heard such a calm response, she was infuriated, saying, "Jackson, what do you mean by that? As a mother, is it wrong for me to care about your pregnant wife? No wonder Lillian dares to defy me and get angry at me. She knows you support her, right?"
Jackson frowned and said, "Mom, I know Lillian's character very well. If you don't actively cause trouble, she won't get angry for no reason. Her emotions are very important during pregnancy. Please don't go to the Frane Mansion unless necessary."
Daisy was almost in disbelief to hear that, her chest heaving. She wanted to continue venting, but there was no sound from the other end.
Jackson had hung up on Daisy and immediately called Lillian.
At that moment, Lillian was talking to Shirley about the upcoming dance rehearsal.
Shirley was a bit worried that her pregnancy might be too much for her body.
Lillian comforted, "Don't worry. I'm not the only professional dancer who continues to dance during pregnancy. I know my limits. If it really exceeds my physical capacity, Taylor is still the most important. I'll manage it well."
The phone rang, and Lillian, still talking to Shirley, answered without looking.
"Did you have a conflict with Mom?" Jackson's cold voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
Lillian's smile faded slightly, and she mocked, "Are you here to hold me accountable?"
