Chapter 168
"Um.." Joseph was very frustrated. On one side, there was Hayden, who could easily be provoked and fall sick, while on the other side was Paige, whom he could never abandon.
It was really hard for him to make a decision.
After waiting in the emergency room for more than an hour, Hayden was finally pushed out. The doctor reminded him, "He's getting old and his heart is weak. It's best if you don't provoke him. Just do whatever he asks of you."
After they sent Hayden to the ward, Joseph sat down on the sofa with a serious expression on his face as he held his phone.
Lucas rarely saw Joseph acting like this. He had always been cynical and did not care about anything. It seemed like today's incident had put him in a tight spot.
Lucas's heart ached for Joseph. He sighed and said, "Sir, your father is fine now. I'll stay here with him so you can go back home and rest."
Joseph shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'll stay here with him."
Lucas saw that Joseph was unwilling to leave, so he did not try to persuade him further. Joseph leaned against the sofa and took out his phone to send a message to Bobby.
"I won't go back tonight. You head back to the villa first. I'm afraid that she might be scared if she's alone."
Bobby read Joseph's text and shook his head. He never expected Joseph to be so sweet to even care if Paige was afraid of being alone.
He replied with a 'sure and he prepared to leave.
A woman and a man walked into the parking space. The woman sounded overjoyed, "Everything is going as planned, wonderful!"
Wasn't this Isabella Martin' voice? Why was she here at the hospital at this hour?
Bobby thought to himself. Then he heard the man spoke up, "Yeah, who would have thought that you're still able to get pregnant at this age! If the child is a baby boy, that would be even better!"
"Shh!" Isabella was very alert. She reached out her hand and nudged the man. The two of them went straight to the car and didn't speak anymore.
Bobby, who was in the car, heard the conversation between the two of them clearly. He was extremely shocked.
How could Isabella get pregnant at such an old age? Wasn't that a little too crazy?
In a rented house on the west side of the city, Sophia was lying on the bed with a pale face.
Ever since she fainted in the hospital that day, everything had changed.
Ethan sent her a cruel break-up message.
Liam rushed to the hospital to hit Isabella out of embarrassment.
This was not the bad part. The worst part was that Liam didn't allow her and Isabella to enter the family house anymore after he knew that Ethan had broken up with her.
Liam was ruthless. She lost her job and her reputation was destroyed. Ethan didn't want her anymore and she miscarried and lost her child. All these series of things made Sophia fell into despair!
She was so dispirited that she could only lie on the bed and not move all day long.
A voice came from outside the door. Isabella pushed the door open and came in with a smile, "Hey, mom has something to tell you!"
Looking at the happy face of Isabella, Sophia did not react at all and she continued to stare at the ceiling emptily.
Isabella reached out her hand and nudged her, "Did you hear me? We're gonna return to the Anderson family tomorrow!"
"Mom, stop dreaming! Now that we are in such a situation, we are completely useless to dad. Dad is so cold-hearted... He could already be so cruel to Paige, do you think he would accept us?" Sophia said in frustration. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
"Hey, we're not at the ends of our rope yet. I have a trump card in store!" Isabella said mysteriously.
Sophia still had no response. Seeing that Sophia was indifferent to her words, Isabella was a little
angry.
"Are you even listening to me?"
"I'm listening! But mom, I don't think your trump card would be useful."
"That's not necessarily true. Your father has always regretted that he has no sons. If I can give birth to a son for him, everything will be different!" Isabella said as she reached out and touched her belly.
"Son? You're pregnant?" Seeing Isabella's movements, Sophia sat up in shock.
