Chapter 981 Are You Pregnant?
However, some netizens supported Joseph: [Oh my God, a relationship not worth ten billion dollars. If it does, please grant me such a relationship.]
[Megan must be made of gold. Ten billion dollars? Not even the world's most beautiful woman is that expensive; not even the richest man in the world spends that much on a relationship.]
[Alright, I used to sympathize with Megan; I must have been an idiot; Megan is the luckiest woman in the world, okay?]
[I used to call Joseph a playboy every day, but I won't anymore. A breakup fee of ten billion dollars, who wouldn't want to date Joseph?]
[The point now is that Joseph wants to get back the ten billion dollars, which shows Joseph isn't that generous. Everyone seems to have misunderstood.]
[Come on, if it weren't for the Hernandez family's financial troubles, Joseph probably wouldn't be trying to get back the ten billion dollars.]
[I think Megan taking ten billion dollars is indeed excessive. She should at least return half.]
[Even if she returns half, there're still five billion dollars left, enough for a lifetime of luxury, but I doubt Megan will. Otherwise, why would Joseph send a lawyer's letter?]
[Why do I suddenly feel Megan is so hypocritical? Does she really love Joseph? She probably went for Joseph's money.]
Cassie was very surprised, thinking, 'Joseph actually went to ask Megan for the ten billion dollars breakup fee back? It's so strange. Isn't Joseph the kind of man who, even if he were poor and in debt, wouldn't go to an ex to get back a breakup fee? Especially from Megan, would Joseph bear that? I dated Joseph, had his child, and ended up with nothing after the divorce. Forget it!'
The more Cassie thought about it, the more upset she got.
What made Cassie even more depressed was that while netizens were discussing, Joseph publicly issued a statement: [Megan and I have been together for over ten years, and during these ten years, we never had a physical relationship. Initially, it was because I was focused on my work, and I was too young when I started dating Megan, so we always maintained a pure friendship. In the last three years, I had health issues, and I even underwent both psychological and physical examinations because of it. Here are my medical records from the past three years. I didn't intentionally waste Megan's youth. During these three years, I realized my health was poor and suggested breaking up, but Megan refused multiple times. Now, I just want to get back the ten billion dollars after the breakup.]
Joseph then posted several medical examination reports from the hospital, with conclusions written by the doctors, including specific dates and hospital names.
Netizens started discussing again: [So it turns out Mr. Hernandez is infertile. I was scared.]
[Mr. Hernandez is willing to do anything to get back that ten billion dollars.]
[The point is Mr. Hernandez spent ten billion dollars for Megan to live a high life and never even touched her. Does Megan have the nerve to take that ten billion dollars?]
[Why wouldn't she? Megan didn't mind Mr. Hernandez's health issues. She clearly went for the money. If Megan loved Mr. Hernandez so much that she didn't need to sleep with him, I don't buy it.]
[No, I'm curious if Mr. Hernandez only had no reaction to Megan, or was it the same with Cassie?]
[Yeah, Mr. Hernandez took Cassie away last time, did he just look at her?]
[Probably, Cassie didn't sue Mr. Hernandez either. Anyway, Mr. Hernandez is infertile, yet his love life is so complicated.]
Being dragged into this relationship again, Cassie really didn't know what Joseph was trying to do.
Not only were netizens curious, but Laura, as a good friend, was also passionately curious and quickly called, "Cassie, I'll treat you to dinner tonight. It's been a while. I miss you."
Cassie sarcastically said, "We just met a few days ago, so I don't miss you at all."
"Don't be like that. I'll treat you to the most expensive cuisine in Whisperlyn City," Laura said slyly.
In the end, Cassie still went to the appointment.
Laura respectfully poured her some water. "Is it true that Joseph is infertile?"
Laura was so direct that Cassie almost spat out her drink. "Enough already."
"I'm curious what is Joseph trying to do?" Laura said in a low voice. "This has been out for two days, and Michael hasn't shown up. I heard from Joseph's secretarial staff that Joseph has been contacting top lawyers worldwide these days."
"And then?" Cassie asked.
"And then no one is paying attention to Joseph."
Laura gloated. "Top lawyers serve the world's richest people, but some top lawyers did come to recommend themselves, probably thinking Joseph lost the last lawsuit to the low-tier lawyer you hired and assumed Joseph is no longer what he used to be."
"Michael is probably trying to find a lawyer for Megan to fight the lawsuit." Cassie shook her head. "This lawsuit would fail. First, the amount is too large, and second, Joseph has no evidence that he didn't touch Megan. They don't have a marriage certificate, so the judge might not order the full ten billion dallars to be returned to Joseph, but Megan might keep a little over 100 million dollars at most."
"Yeah, ten billion dollars. Joseph must have been out of his mind to give that much." Laura shook her head.
"What frustrates me more is that Michael, that idiot, is helping Megan find a lawyer. Isn't Michael afraid people will accuse him of colluding with Megan to take Joseph's ten billion dollars?" Laura said while picking up a piece of sashimi and putting it in her mouth.
However, after just one piece, a huge wave of nausea hit her.
Laura quickly grabbed the trash can at her feet and threw up everything.
"What are you doing?" Cassie looked at Laura with a bad feeling. "Are you pregnant?"
"Are you crazy?" Laura impatiently glanced at Cassie. "I took birth control pills. Maybe I'm just not feeling well."
"You used to be able to eat a whole plate of sashimi." Cassie, experienced, tightened her face. "Not all birth control pills are effective. Sometimes, there's still a chance of getting pregnant. Let me ask you, did you get your period this month?"
Laura turned pale at Cassie's words. It was late by more than a week this month, but she sometimes had irregular periods.
"Stop eating." Seeing Laura not responding, Cassie took away the sashimi in front of her and replaced it with cooked food.
