“Don’t be angry! It’s not good for your health. Take care of yourself!” Sylvie said. “I still have something else to do, so I need to leave first!”
“I will ask someone to take care of Bonnie. How is the relationship between Marley and you?” Cassius said afterward.
“I think we have reconciled!” Sylvie did not cover up the truth.
“Then, it’s great!” Cassius did not want to talk more because of Bonnie’s incident. “Sylvie, anyway, Bonnie is your sister!”
Sister?!
Sylvie laughed. How would she dare to recognize her as her sister?
“I am sorry. I do not have a sister! I will never treat her as my sister! Also, please don’t ever ask me to inherit the Mccarthy Group. If you didn’t insist on giving Mccarthy Group to me, how would she intend to harm me? Then, what happened today would not happen at all. As for what I really want, perhaps you will never know about it!” Sylvie said it with a sense of sadness and her eyes felt sore.
What she wanted was just a common family love. However, because of the presence of assets, the family love turned out to become a reason to kill among themselves. Instead of having the money, it might be better to not have it!
Cassius was slightly stunned and followed by a deep sigh. “The occurrence of this thing is truly my fault! But, Bonnie is truly not trustworthy. Sylvie, this is an enormous property involving over ten thousand people. They need to live and feed their families too. If I expand it continuously, there are more and more people getting involved. I can directly donate my assets at the moment when I die. But, how could those people survive? Some of them even work for the company for their entire lifetimes!”
“This...” Yes! Sylvie hesitated. Marley and Cassius said this before. All of these were responsibilities.
“I hope that you can shoulder it and let those people survive. This will be my greatest pleasure!”
“You can go and look for someone more suitable for recruitment or something. Talented people are everywhere!” She truly did not want to take up the responsibility. It was too heavy and almost suffocated her.
She did not grow up in a rich family so she did not have the ambition like those rich people. She just desired a normal and peaceful life so she could live her life meaningfully. That was all!
“Do you need me to beg you to let you agree to it?” Cassius preferred her because he thought that she was a potential and talented person. When making decisions, she was calm enough and she was not greedy. Also, she was able to be cruel when necessary. A person like her was suitable to manage a company!
“Then...” After hesitating for a while, Sylvie noticed his expectation at the bottom of his eyes. She nodded helplessly, “Alright!”
Cassius smiled and kindness was being expressed on his old face. “Thank you!”
Without knowing the reason, when Sylvie heard Cassius’s gratitude, she felt extremely heavy at her heart.
“Let the driver send you? Where are you going?”
“No need. I can take a taxi! Take care, Bonnie. I mean that you let her come out only after she is perfectly fine! She is becoming more and more paranoid!” After saying that, Sylvie left.
Hospital.
Sylvie was holding the laboratory report to draw blood.
The doctor asked her to do a blood test but not an ultrasound first. He was afraid that it would harm the fetus since it was still too small. Through the blood test, the biological data could determine the duration of pregnancy.
After drawing blood, she was waiting for the result but the person in charge of the laboratory notified her that the result would only be available at around half past ten.
Sylvie kept waiting for the time but it seemed to be so slow. When the time reached almost half past eleven, she was about to end her waiting.
At that moment, someone was walking from the lobby of the hospital. She was a woman and going to go upstairs but she suddenly saw Sylvie who was in the lobby to collect her laboratory report.
The woman was stunned at first but she dodged afterward.
Sylvie got her report.
On the blood test report, the result of HCG was 15084mIU/mL. Sylvie saw that there was an up arrow besides which meant that it was far beyond the normal range of a normal person.
She was holding the report but she could not understand it. So, she looked for a doctor and a doctor from the department of gynecology and obstetrics told her, “Congratulations! You are pregnant! It was about forty-five days!”
“Can this confirm my pregnancy?” Sylvie was slightly stunned.
“Yes. If you are confirmed that you want to have this child, come back to do an ultrasound after two weeks!”
“Oh! Thank you!” Sylvie’s heart started to beat rapidly at that moment. Was she sure that she had a baby? Since the blood test was not wrong, then she came to do the ultrasound two weeks later. “Thank you! Thanks!”
Sylvie grabbed the report and left happily!
She bumped into a girl accidentally in the corridor.
The report fell onto the ground and the girl picked it up then handed it over to her when she was apologizing at the same time.
Sylvie felt embarrassed because she thought that she was the one who knocked others for being too excited. But, the girl apologized unexpectedly.
She saw that the girl was waiting outside the ultrasound room. Since she was pregnant, she asked subconsciously, “Are you pregnant also?”
The girl nodded.
Sylvie showed a smiley and happy face, “I am pregnant too. My baby is forty-five days old.”
The girl smiled and congratulated her, “Congratulations! Hope that you can give birth to a healthy baby.”
“Thank you and I send the same greetings to you as well.” After saying that, Sylvie waved her hand then left.
Then at a corner, there was a handsome face that belonged to Aila. When Sylvie left, Aila looked at her back and her eyes shined for a while!

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
