Chapter 911 Back to the Hastings Family
Pregnancy was not a small matter. Even Oliver, a person who didn't care much about anyone other than Natalie, couldn't help but frown.
His uncle and aunt handed Lilian over to him intact.
He had the right to know about Lilian's pregnancy..
After all, Lilian was only eighteen years old.
Lilian was startled by Lilian's serious expression and seemed at a loss for words for a moment.
"When did this happen. Did you fail to prevent it or was it intentional by Lucas?" If it weren't for her brother's current condition, Lilia would have wanted to go in and give Lucas a beating.
"No, no!" Seeing that the situation exceeded her expectations, Lilian quickly waved her hands. "Actually, I'm not pregnant. Don't worry."
Oliver and Natalie was speechless.
Samuel glanced at Lilian, wondering why she was so unreliable!
"Don't be so serious, I... I just said it to Lucas. Is that not allowed?" Lilian gradually felt guilty.
Although she didn't know if this approach would work.
"Lilian, how can you casually joke about something as serious as pregnancy?" Natalie sighed and rubbed her temples.
Fortunately, it wasn't a pregnancy.
It was not that Natalie didn't want Lilian to be pregnant. It was just not the right time now. Lucas was still sick, and it would be irresponsible for her to get pregnant.
Plus, Lilian was still young and shouldn't be burdened by a child so early.
"I've seen this in TV dramas. Many female leads or supporting roles say they are pregnant to keep the man they like," Lilian said with a grievance, "I'm afraid Lucas won't want me."
"Lilian, did you leave your brain in Forinland?" Oliver was really curious, thinking, 'My uncle and aunt are both cunning foxes, how do they raise such a daughter without intelligence!'
Lilian pouted and glared at Oliver, wanting to retort but without courage.
She thought, 'The TV teaches me the way of talking like that. Why is Oliver scolding me!'
"Lilian, you can't learn from TV dramas. TV dramas are often fictionalized and some are deceiving. Next time, don't joke about such things. You scared us."
"Then did I scare Lucas too?" Lilian innocently said, "I was actually trying to surprise him."
Natalie thought to herself, 'Pleasant surprise? It should be scare.'
Natalie, still worried, earnestly explained to Lilian for ten minutes before letting her back into the hospital room.
Lucas was indeed quite shocked, but after receiving the news, all that left was wonderment.
Although he felt like a beast for knocking Lilian up at such a young age, although the child came too soon, he was capable of supporting Lilian and their future child.
His only concern was his health. After a conversation with Oliver, he had already made up his mind to cooperate with the doctors for all treatments.
Although he didn't quite understand why, despite taking precautions every time and specifically considering Lilian's health, Lilian still got pregnant.
As Lilian entered the hospital room again, Lucas was prepared to make a solemn promise to his future wife Lilian, promising that he would love her and their child well in the future, ensuring that she would continue to live like a little princess, and promising to marry her as soon as his condition improved or he recovered.
"Lucas, I'm not pregnant. I was lying to you just now. I'm sorry."
As soon as Lilian entered, she cut off all of Lucas' words, almost choking him again.
Lucas was dumbfounded, unable to say a word. He was unable to figure out whether to believe Lilian's words from ten minutes ago or her current ones.
He thought, 'Why does it become a lie?'
Lucas was a bit on the edge mentally.
"Lucas, are you angry?" Lilian walked in with small steps, holding his hand, apologizing pitifully with her head down, "I'm sorry. I just didn't want you to leave me. I know what I did was wrong, Natalie has already told me. Don't be angry. It's not good for a patient to be angry."
Lucas covered his eyes, feeling a bit melancholic.
"Little fool, do you know that it's not good for a patient to be angry, and it's not good for a patient to fluctuate greatly?"
Lilian rolled her eyes, pretending it wasn't her fault.
"Do you want a baby?" Lilian asked.
"Not for now."
"Why?" Lilian asked innocently.
Lucas looked into her eyes, with a hint of indulgence and pampering, "Because you are my baby.
"You are my baby, no need for any other babies."
Lilian was very satisfied with this answer, happily spun in place and said, "I don't like it either."
"Why?" Lucas asked, "I thought you would like it. I see you really like Nathan."
"I only like other people's babies. Because if they cry, I can give them back to their parents, and I don't have to comfort them."
Caleb and James were met by Oliver's people at the agreed location as soon as they arrived at the airport.
"Where is Samuel?" Caleb only saw Natalie and Oliver, originally thinking that his grandson would also be here.
"Mr. Hastings is your family, you shouldn't ask me." Natalie pretended to be ignorant, as if she had never met Samuel.
Because Samuel had made it clear that he didn't want to see the Hastings family's elders.
The original words were that they looked miserable!
Miserable was one thing, but Samuel still held responsibility for Caleb. He couldn't cut off ties with them like Natalie, no matter how much he disagreed with them.
Samuel had to support them.
So, it was better not to meet.
Caleb still looked around, thinking that Samuel might secretly follow, but he didn't.
"As you know, my brother is in critical condition, so let's get straight to the point." Natalie took a sip of water. "What do you want?"
"You should know that I, Oliver, never lose out," Oliver said, sitting next to Natalie with a cold expression
He was just reminding the Hastings family that conditions could be proposed, but if they asked for too much, they should be prepared for the consequences.
Oliver's words instantly alerted Caleb, who had originally planned to ask for five conditions, but temporarily changed it to three.
"First, you must restore Susan's clean reputation." Susan having a good reputation was harmless to the Hastings family."
"Agreed."
This was expected by Natalie.
Since the Hastings family was still protecting Susan, they naturally didn't want Susan to be burdened with a bad reputation for no reason, which would only bring trouble to the Hastings family.
"Second, give half of the RisingKing Group's daily necessities market and building materials market to the Hastings family."
Natalie frowned.
Daily necessities and building materials might not seem glamorous, but they were two highly profitable sectors. Natalie didn't know much about the internal situation of the RisingKing Group, but she knew that the daily necessities and building materials sectors were very significant.
Half of the makert was definitely not a small bargain!
Natalie was about to negotiate with him when she heard Oliver's voice in her ear. "Agreed."
Oliver looked indifferent, not bothering to verify or calculate the impact and losses that handing over these two major market segments to the Hastings family would bring him.
His expression seemingly said impatiently, "Hurry up and move on to the next one!"
Natalie wanted to speak but was stopped by a glance from Oliver.
"Third..." Caleb paused, looking at Natalie with a complex gaze. "I want you to return to our family."
"Natalie, I know you have grievances in your heart. Come back! You don't want Nathan to have no grandfather, right? People like Robert Watson are not decent eough." James seemed to have already seen the return of his daughter.
