I Loved You in the Dark Until Someone Loved Me in the Light novel Chapter 145

Gillian lowered her eyes.

She knew exactly what he meant by that.

How could a child born to her ever be worthy of inheriting The Foster Group?

York just didn't want his own flesh and blood scattered out in the world. When the time came to pass down the family legacy, it would undoubtedly go to whatever child Hailey gave him.

Evelyn's expression stiffened for a brief second before she quickly smiled again, looking at Gillian. "That's fine too. If it is a girl, we'll just transfer your father's hospital to your daughter, and you can manage it for her. That way, there's no rush to demand those shares right now."

"I never agreed to that, and no one is getting a single cent."

Suddenly, a deep, icy voice echoed from the top of the stairs.

It was York's father, Silas Foster.

Silas had always despised Gillian, refusing to accept her into the family. Right now, as he glared at her, his eyes were brimming with pure disgust.

Elite families always demanded matching social status.

In the eyes of the Foster family, the Jordans might have had money back then, but they were still nobody. They were entirely unworthy of the Fosters.

It was only because Gillian's father had saved the old master's life that the grandfather insisted Gillian marry York as repayment. It was the ultimate social climbing.

Otherwise, how could his only son ever marry a woman like this? She had no status and no background.

She couldn't bring the family a single ounce of benefit.

Not bringing in benefits was one thing, but she acted like a leech, constantly draining the Foster family's resources.

Evelyn forced a smile. "Silas, why so serious? We're about to have a grandchild. Aren't you happy?"

Silas's face remained utterly thunderous, completely silent. Evelyn was sharp; she knew exactly what kind of man her husband was. She quickly laughed it off. "Well, it's a bit too early to be discussing all this anyway. The baby isn't even born yet. We can figure it out when the time comes—"
