“Speak freely and don’t beat around the bush,” Andrew said, he stood in front of Sarah to protect her, as good as taking her into her arms.
Instead, Sarah sensed a message within what grandpa said and didn’t know how to respond.
“Come in with me!”
He walked with elegance and authority, with the walking stick tapping firmly on the floor. Sarah and Andrew followed closely behind.
As they entered, they saw several servants tidying up the place after the strong winds had ravaged the courtyard.
They stopped once they entered.
“Take a look!”
Grandfather snorted towards Sarah and looked at the person in the house. Thereafter he went upstairs, leaving the stunned Sarah.
Of course, Andrew didn’t leave.
“You… why did you come?”
Bruce was standing right before them. He had a tall and slim body and the chiseled and spotless handsome face. Several of the female family servants kept looking at him.
The man laughed, with an imperceptible smile on his lips, “I came to visit you. I heard that you are pregnant?”
There is no such thing as an airtight window, the news of her pregnancy traveled far and wide!
Sarah can’t help but sigh!
Andrew smirked when he heard Bruce mention that Sarah was pregnant.
“Have a sit.”
Andrew spoke,because that Bruce was a guest.
Bruce looked at him and then back at Sarah, “Answer me, are you?”
What else was there to say, it was real after all!
“Bruce, did you come specially to see me?”
Sarah was nervous as she didn’t know when he came and what he said to grandpa. No wonder grandpa was so angry just now.
As long as he didn’t say nonsense!
Somethings are frivolous and shouldn’t pay attention to it.
Bruce explained, “It’s not considered early, about an hour ago. I thought that you were at home since you are pregnant. Who knew that you went to the office?”
Andrew walked Sarah over to the sofa to sit down. When he heard the last portion, it was obvious from his tone that he alleged that Sarah went to work against her own will.
For a pregnant woman to go to work, she must have been forced. If a person doesn’t have the means to do it, why continue to ask that person to do it?
“No, don’t talk nonsense. It was I who wanted to go to the office.” Sarah immediately explained and didn’t let him continue his nonsense.
Bruce was trying to ridicule but when he saw Sarah anxiously explaining as if she was scared of Andrew scolding her, he can’t help but feel sorry for her.
Her protective actions haven’t changed.
“Okay, I won’t say.”
Andrew watched quietly. His face became gloomy. His eyes was dark and deep.
He didn’t speak and listened quietly on the side.
Sarah noticed that the servants began to look over. She cannot let Bruce remain or she will risk having rumors about her. Furthermore, with grandpa involved, Bruce’s presence was highly inappropriate!
“Today you came to the Bask residence wasn’t it for asking a question? If you want to ask me if I am pregnant, then I’m very happy to reply to you, yes, I am pregnant. But these could have been done over the phone. Do you have anything else that you want to say?”
Hearing this, Bruce clapped and laughed, “Looks like you still understand me.”
Yes, Andrew also heard it, at the moment when Bruce clapped, the eyebrows frowned deeply.
“Take them.” He emphasized again and pressed the things to her embrace, “Take it as my gift to your child.”
“I’d rather you gave him fifteen dollars and not this 1.5 Billion!”
The immense amount was unreal!
“Okay, take it as I gave him fifteen dollars but then multiply it by millions.”
He seemed unbothered by this and simply raised his eyebrows.
Sarah felt her hands tremble and turned soft. She couldn’t hold on to it. This isn’t real! It mustn’t be real!
1.5 Billion…
1.5 Billion…
1.5 Billion…
She desperately tried to count this figure, how many zeros were there in 1.5 Billion?
Six? Wrong!
Seven? Wrong!
Eight! eight!...
She felt that she was about to collapse.
“Sarah, this was just the first gift,” Bruce emphasized.
The paper lay flat on her hands. She didn’t dare to move. She was afraid that if she crumpled the paper its value will drop several tens of millions.
“Ah, it’s unexpected that you all are so generous to my woman.” That document which has a guaranteed value of 1.5 Billion was taken by Andrew.
