One month later...
Jennie had long heard that Diana had lived outside on her own not so long ago. She had come and gone freely to nightclubs and several bars and seemed to have made a lot of noise.
Everyone knew that Diana had left the Manoban Family, and because of her pampered habits, she could only rely on her pretty face to hang out in night bars. Still, they didn't expect her to be dragged into an alley behind a bar by a group of thugs last week.
After that, it seemed that Diana had become a different person. Not only was she under control by some hooligans, but she also seemed to have been injected with drugs by some people in the wrong business. After that, Diana had no choice but to hang out with those people.
In the morning, Lisa had to go to the Manoban Group to handle a few things. He didn't want to leave Jennie alone, so he specifically asked Rosé to accompany her to go for a maternity check-up.
When Jennie arrived at the hospital, she saw Diana walking out with a blood test form in her hand and a face as white as a ghost's.
Seeing Diana in such a state, Jennie and Rosé looked at each other.
Jennie only heard that Diana had been harassed by thugs last week, but from her appearance, it looks like she had been involved with some naughty man for the past month. It can't be that she was pregnant, right?
"Jen, stop looking. As the saying goes, bad people will always get retribution. Not that she won't get retribution for what she's done, it's just that the time isn't right yet. I just heard it a few weeks ago that Diana pushed you down the stairs. She deserves what she gets now for what she's doing to you!" Rosé whispered to Jennie on the side while helping support her body.
Jennie glanced at Rosé, then looked at Diana, who had left in the taxi. She shook her head and said, "I don't feel sorry for her. I just feel a little regretful."
"What's there to sigh about? I heard that the Manoban Family has been good to her in the past and no matter how willful she was, Old Man still took care of her and protected her. In the end, she, herself, squandered the feelings the Family has for her, so she can't blame her grievance on others. She can only blame herself for not knowing what's good for her and for being insatiably greedy!" Rosé scoffed.
Yes, what Rosé said was right.
Some people were greedy for money, some were greedy for power, while some people like Diana constantly wanted everyone to love her in order to make up for her inferiority complex. That's why she always thought of ways to snatch everyone's attention and love until she finally walked on the wrong path.
Nancy had always been indulgent since she was young. As a close sister, Diana slowly became influenced. After a long time, the small hesitations and comprehensive considerations in her heart would gradually dissipate until she eventually became Nancy's lackey outside the prison.
Jennie couldn't help but sigh.
Ever since she had entered the Manoban Family, she had been taken advantage of by Nancy's so-called good sister out of jealousy.
After the examination from the hospital, Rosé helped Jennie walk on the side of the road. She then suddenly said, "Oh right, Jen! When President Manoban asked me to accompany you for the maternity check-up, he even told me that if you don't feel too tired, I should accompany you to see your custom-made wedding dress."
Jennie didn't answer her question, she just looked at the passing cars with a relaxed expression.
"Jen? Should we go and take a look? With such a big belly, I wonder what kind of wedding dress the designer will design. My guess is that it will be very special and beautiful." Rosé giggled as she pulled on Jennie's arm and kept talking.
At this moment, Jennie's phone suddenly rang. She looked at the caller and saw an unknown number. She frowned as she looked at the number. Although it was unknown, she could guess who it was.
During this month, Senior Zhou often tried to find a way to see her, but she often turned him down because of her unwell body. Seeing the phone screen continue to flicker, she pressed the answer button and placed it next to her ear. "Hello."
"Hello, Jennie, are you free today? Let's meet. There are only you and me and no grandfather." Unexpectedly, Niki's voice came over the phone.
Half a month ago, the day Bella was seriously ill, the Zhou Family received a notification from a reputable brain hospital in the United States saying that they had found a cure to stabilize her condition. At that time, Niki had called Lisa before she brought Bella back to the United States.
No matter what role Niki had played between her and Lisa's relationship, Bella was just an innocent and cute child. Jennie was glad that she survived.
It was just that she didn't expect Niki to return from America in half a month.
Judging from Niki's tone, she seemed to have relaxed a lot. She was no longer weak and stressed as she was. According to time, Bella should have escaped from danger. Her operation in the United States was a success, otherwise, Niki wouldn't have returned so quickly.
Jennie looked at the time and then rejected it. "Recently, my stomach has been getting bigger and heavier. Lisa will walk with me every day when he comes back from work. I'm not in a good mood. Sorry, Miss Zhou, I can't see you."
"Jennie, I just want to talk to you. You should know that I will never hurt you. From beginning to end, I never tried to hurt you, whether because you are Lisa's wife or my grandfather's granddaughter. I just want to talk to you."
Jennie sighed. "Alright then, what time? Where shall we meet?"
After Niki told her the location and time, she hung up the phone.
"Jen, do you have an appointment today? Aren't you going to see the wedding dress?" Rosé asked.
Jennie gave a soft smile and gently pinched her ear. "You're always curious about these. Aren't you so busy, so how can you go out and accompany me for a maternity check-up? Why don't you come home early and rest? I won't see the wedding dress today."
"Sure, then I'll accompany you tomorrow to see it. After all, President Manoban personally told me to do it. I don't dare to disobey ~" Rosé smiled.
Jennie merely smiled and didn't say anything else.
Seeing Niki, for Jennie, it was a complicated thing. Niki was a woman with higher self-confidence. When faced with her husband's old love, her heart will still be tied a little. But seeing her was a necessary process for Jennie.
Niki had already waited for a long time at the Beidou Avenue Tea House. When Jennie sat down, Niki immediately looked at her and said, "Sorry, I forgot that you're pregnant. Since you can't drink tea, why don't we change somewhere else?"
"No need, I'll just drink water." Jennie called the waiter and ordered a glass of warm water.
Niki drank two sips of tea before she said, "My daughter's life is temporarily saved. The doctor says that she needs to undergo another operation before October. If the operation before the age of ten can be done smoothly, Bella will be able to live well like any other children."
"Congratulations." Jennie smiled sincerely. At the same time, she placed her hand on her stomach.
Seeing Jennie's subconscious actions, Niki pursed her lips and said, "Jennie, I admit it for so long, I look down on you. I thought for years I was with him, and all the good he had done for me made me not believe that he has already transferred his love to another woman. This time, after suffering from watching Bella's illness and a sudden miracle, I finally saw many things."
