Chapter 141 This Is All Just an Accident and Misunderstanding
At the mall, Anna, who picked out over ten clothes at once, turned around and asked, “What do you think, Georgina?”
Looking at her, Georgina smiled and replied absent-mindedly, “It’s quite good.”
Anna then told the salesperson, “Pack this too.”
“Okay.”
Only while paying did Anna look at Georgina and asked, “What’s wrong, Georgina? Are you feeling sick?”
She replied, “I’m not. I was thinking that since we’re out, we might as well buy something for Miss McKinney.”
The mention of Leanna made Anna a bit frustrated. “Georgina, you’ve seen today how that woman acts. You treated her so nicely, yet she did not appreciate it at all.”
Yet, Georgina just smiled in return. “It’s up to her whether she appreciates it or not. As for me, I only want to live without guilt. Besides, the baby she’s pregnant with is your cousin’s child. Since she’s connected to me, I just can’t leave her alone now, can I?”
“You’re really going to care for the child on her behalf, aren’t you?” Anna mumbled, “We don’t even know if she’ll be able to give birth to that illegitimate child.”
Hearing this, Georgina only lowered her head and showed a very subtle smile. “Alright now, Anna, since we’ve almost finished shopping, should we visit Carly? I don’t think you’ve seen her since she gave birth, right?”
This made Anna feel a bit guilty while she smiled forcefully. “I suddenly remembered that my parents wanted me back home today. So, I’ll skip it this time.”
Anna quickly left after saying that.
It was until she had walked away that Georgina’s gaze turned cold.
…
In the ward, Georgina saw Carly sitting on the bed with a dazed expression, not knowing what she was thinking of.
She set down the flowers she had just bought and walked over. “What are you thinking about, Carly? Where’s the baby?”
Snapping back to reality, Carly stated, “My mom brought the baby to do a check-up.”
After that, she then asked, “How are you so free to visit me today, Georgina?”
“I was free today, so I went to the Pearsons. After that, I went shopping with Anna, so I came to see you.”
The mention of the Pearsons showed a brief sign of hesitation in Carly’s eyes.
Noticing her behavior, Georgina sat by her side and asked gently, “What’s wrong, Carly?”
Carly bit her lips and grabbed Georgina’s hands. “Georgina, I really don’t know who I can tell this to. So, you really have to help me keep this secret!”
Georgina nodded at her words. “I will.”
Even though Georgina said that, Carly still hesitated before spilling the beans as this was not a very proud thing to admit to.
With a low voice, she asked, “Do you remember how Aidan’s ex-wife fell into the water on the day of Mrs. Pearson’s birthday banquet?”
