My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 395

Chapter 395

Berry Furnishings was being closed down because of a tax evasion incident.

Their assets were seized, and they could not cover the huge amount of taxes they owed.

Berry Furnishings had been losing money over the years, and their income had never been enough to cover the expenses. Dixon’s insignificant investment was only enough to relieve Berry Furnishings of their urgent needs - it never solved the root of the problem.

The company’s seizure only added to the problem and angered Dixon so much that he threw the documents onto the ground.

“Horace’s useless!”

“At least Ashlyn agreed to the operation, didn’t she, Mr. Haddock?” Sienna lowered herself to pick the documents up and place them in front of Dixon.

The handsome-looking man stared blankly at the documents with his coal-black eyes before breaking the silence, “Leave me.”

“Understood.” Sienna quickly pushed the door open and went out.

As soon as she went through the door, a sudden feeling took her by surprise. She felt discomfort in her stomach as if she were about to throw up.

Could it be?

Sienna’s face turned pale. She dared not waste another second standing still. After dashing to a stall in the bathroom, she did nothing but dry heave, so much that she almost vomited stomach acid.

After a moment, she patted herself on the chest as she walked out of the stall.

Sienna was a thirty-six-year-old woman, so she knew to take birth-control pills because Dixon cared not about taking any safety measures.

She had no plans to have children as her husband was disabled, so it would not make sense for her to be pregnant.

If she got pregnant, that would mean that the baby was illegitimate. It would be a bastard child of the aunt and her nephew.

Principal Potter looked up from the file before handing it over to Mr. Granger. “Take a look at this, Granger.”

Mr. Granger took the file with a puzzled look on his face. “What’s this?”

“Just look,” instructed Principal Potter softly.

Five minutes later, Mr. Granger opened his eyes wide in shock as his hands trembled, “How is this possible?”

“It really is her,” sighed Principal Potter, “I thought she was familiar the first time I saw her at the Haddock Charity gathering.”

“She really was the one who wrote the paper that took the medical world by storm! Not only did she publish several first-level theses, but she was also a guest editor at a world-class medical journal. How is that possible? She’s only how old? Wasn’t it said that the medical genius disappeared after publishing a paper four years ago? It was a great loss to the medical community,” exclaimed Mr. Granger as he found what he read in the file to be unbelievable.

“My brother is the dean of the institute of medicine in Maredania. This file he sent has to be correct. He said that the genius got poisoned and that it was the incurable kind. However, he never gave up searching for the child. His only fear is that she might have fallen,” explained Principal Potter as his eyes turned red.
