Chapter 1552 Gossiping Is Human Nature
Genevieve could understand Jessica's anxious feelings. However, all they knew for sure was that Charlotte was
alive; they still hadn't found out where she was.
She couldn't reveal the truth to Jessica. She wouldn't be able to handle it.
Seeing Genevieve hesitating to speak, Jessica, who had developed a sharp mind from her work, said, “Even if Lottie
eloped with someone, I'd still hope you could tell me, so I don't have to imagine things.”
“It's not exactly eloping. I was figuring out how to tell you,” Genevieve recalled the gossip Camilla had asked her
about and organized her words in her mind.
After a moment, Genevieve whispered to Jessica, “Lottie is pregnant, but she doesn't want this matter to be known
by the media and blown out of proportion. It could affect her future work. Coincidentally, she also wanted to travel
abroad. Her boyfriend decided to leave his work and accompany her overseas. The plan is to come back after
they've had the baby.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJessica seemed shocked and struggled to find words for a while. “I know my little sister well. She's neither willing to
get married nor willing to compromise her beauty, so how could she ever agree to have a child?”
When Jessica gave birth to her daughter, she gained more than ten pounds. Even with a cesarean section, she went
through quite a bit of pain.
When Charlotte had taken care of her at the hospital and saw her state, she kept talking about how she would
never get married. She'd rather spend half her life with money than go through the hardship of having a child.
That's why Jessica didn't entirely believe Genevieve's words.
Knowing that convincing Jessica wouldn't be easy, Genevieve continued, “You also know that Lottie is carefree, but
she's been on and off with her current boyfriend for years without breaking up. It's evident that she loves him very
much, and he adores her, always accommodating her. If Lottie wanted to have a child, it's not impossible.”
Jessica recalled the day she helped Charlotte organize her bag and saw a pair of Cartier wedding rings inside.
If Charlotte didn't love the other person, why would she buy wedding rings?
Jessica remarked, “If the person she's with truly cares for her, even if they're a celebrity, I wouldn't object. But must
she disappear to another country without a word, refusing to answer her sister's calls?”
Genevieve grinned and responded, “You know what they say about elder sisters being like second mothers. Perhaps
she's worried about receiving a scolding from you. Let her lead her own life.”
Once Genevieve managed to assure Jessica that Charlotte was safe, the latter's concerns seemed to subside.
After Jessica left, Johanna, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation, expressed her surprise. “So,
Charlotte is really pregnant and went abroad with Jerry to have the baby?”
“It would be a relief if that were the case,” Genevieve sighed.
“What's really happening?” Johanna's curiosity grew, sensing the seriousness in Genevieve's tone. “And where did
Charlotte go? Even Jessica was asking Timothy about Charlotte's whereabouts when we crossed paths while I was
moving.”
“See? It's hard to resist the temptation of gossip. And Mando says I'm too curious,” Genevieve cheekily remarked.
Then, she proceeded to share with Johanna all the details Armand had relayed to her.
Johanna, just like Genevieve when she first heard the news, widened her eyes and took a moment to process the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏminformation. “So, if Timothy knows about this, why hasn't he told me?”
“It's probably because it's not a pressing matter,” Genevieve explained. “Moreover, you've been through a lot
mentally, and he might want you to have some peace.”
Having experienced a traumatic event like being kidnapped, Johanna's mind had conjured up many unsettling
possibilities. “Do you think Jerry's uncle might have tricked him and sold Charlotte somewhere?”
“It's quite unlikely,” Genevieve reassured. “Mando mentioned that Jerry takes extreme measures to ensure
Sebastian tells the truth, even using force on Sebastian's men when necessary. If Sebastian is trying to save
himself, he'd likely break under pressure and change his story. But he's still adamant that Charlotte is deceased.
There might be something he doesn't know, perhaps an event that occurred after the ship left.”
Johanna leaned her chin on her hand, lost in thought, then turned to Genevieve and inquired, “If we manage to
locate Charlotte, what do you think will happen between her and Jerry?”
“We're all aware of how her father passed away, but who would dare to break that news to her?” Genevieve
sighed. “And Jerry knows Charlotte's temperament well, so he wouldn't dare reveal such news to her.”
She looked at Johanna earnestly and advised, “Jojo, it's important to sort out your own feelings toward Timothy
instead of getting overly preoccupied with others' matters.”
