Chapter 710
Though Genevieve had her own suspicions when she noticed Vanessa‘s instinctual gestures iust now,
hearing the cleaner confirm it still gave her quite a bit of a shock.
Vanessa is almost Afty years old. How could she have gotten herself pregnant? Being someone who is willing to sacrifice her otun pregnant daughter in order to be able to lead the lavish life of a rich man‘s wife, how is she fit to become a mother again?
The indignant Genevieve was almost tempted to barge into the ultrasound room. That was when she
received a call from Johanna.
Managing to calm herself after answering the phone, she then went downstairs to find Jack.
“I haven‘t seen Jojo for while, so I‘ll be meeting her for lunch.” Genevieve told Jack in the car after they
left the hospital.
With no intention of preventing her from meeting her good friend, Jack duly dropped Genevieve off at
Johanna‘s place.
In order to enable the nanny to take their daughter out at night. Timothy purposefully chose to house
Johanna in a standalone mansion that featured a courtyard, fountain, and a very lovely greenhouse
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJohanna went on to repurpose that greenhouse into her own personal workspace. She could not be
happier, being able to catch a bit of sun while she worked.
Experiencing an explosion of inspiration over the past few days, she had drafted up a few dozen
designs; from the courtly attires of the Middle Ages to uniforms, layered jackets and skirts, and bubble
dresses, she had them for all seasons, with each design irresistibly adorable,
She was all set to commence work on them as soon as the materials had been delivered.
While Genevieve was going through the drafts, Johanna leaned against the side of the desk and asked
her, smilingly, “Don‘t you feel lucky having a fashion designer like me as your friend?”
“Absolutely.” Genevieve was in awe. “Seeing so many cute little dresses inakes me almost envious of
Mandy.”
After she had a tour of the greenhouse, Genevieve and Johanna went out for lunch together.
As Johanna wanted to have Ferropenian cuisine, the pair chose to visit a restaurant that they had
patronized several times on previous occasions. Inside, there was a rooftop garden at which they
would get to dine while enjoying some scenic sights at the same time.
After the waiter went away to process their orders, Genevieve took a sip of warm water. “I saw Vanessa
at the hospital just now.”
“Did she come up to you?” Johanna asked,
“It‘s nothing like that.” Initially. Genevieve did not want to tell lohanna about that vexing matter so as to
spare her the uncase, but she was concerned Oric of these days, that the former might
bump into a heavily pregnani Vaness:
Hesitating for a while, Genevieve then told Johanna, “She‘s pregnant. I saw her while she was going in
to do a color ultrasound,”
Johanna was stunned, albeit brictly
Following that she leaned back casually into her chair and remarked sarcastically. “Still able to
Conceive at fifty? Not bad at all.”
Scrutinizing Johanna‘s expression, Genevieve added, “Timothy probably doesn‘t know about this vet”
Word had it that since taking charge at forlisle Group, Timothy had been so busy that he could not even
make it to his own daughter‘s full moon celebration. Never mind keeping tabs on what was going on at
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe hospital, he even had to get others to help Johanna when she was relocating
*Ms Quayland and I have severed our familial ties since that day at the café,” said Johanna
unflinchingly. Even if she were to conceive quadruplets, it‘d be none of my business. As she‘s carrying
Timothy‘s young brother or sister, there‘s probably nothing Timothy could do even if he know about it.”
“That sort of woman isn‘t fit to be a mother!” said Genevieve with a sneer.
Since Timothy was the only child in his family, the family business would expectedly be handed over to
him one day. Knowing that Timothy and Johanna did not much care for her. Vanessa reckoned that she
would probably not be able to receive much in the way of inheritance. Things would be radically
different now that she was conceiving.
Regardless of gender, the baby she would be carrying was Jeremiah‘s. That meant that the child, 100,
would be entitled to a share of the family estate.
Vanessa really had it all worked out.
Propping her check with her palm, Johanna chuckled calmly, “Right now, she‘s just a stranger to me, so
whatever business of hers is none of my concerni.”
“Why don‘t we talk about something else.” She then moved on to a subject of her own choosing “Is it
true that Sylvie is going to be married to Bruce?
