Max stared intently at the medical report. The final results indicated that the fetus development was delayed compared to a normal pregnancy, alongside other abnormal values. However, compared to the initial checkup, these results showed significant improvement. After flipping through the document, Max darkened his expression. His gaze locked onto the words indicating thirteen weeks of pregnancy.
Jeffrey picked up his mug, taking a leisurely sip before slowly setting it back down. He raised his eyes to look at Max. The office was unnervingly quiet, broken only by the sound of the wind rustling the leaves outside. Suddenly, a single stray leaf drifted in through the window, floating gently to the floor.
An indeterminate amount of time passed before Max finally stood up, report in hand. His cold eyes bored into Jeffrey, his tone laced with warning. "Jeffrey, I have already made concessions. You had better not push your luck, or you will regret it when I turn hostile."
With those final words, Max gripped the report tightly, not lingering for another second, and turned to stride out of the office. Jeffrey watched his retreating figure, his expression completely indifferent.
Once inside his car, Max issued a frigid command. "To the Ross Manor."
As the car slowly pulled away, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number. The call connected swiftly.
"Mr. Hawthorne," Mabel answered, sounding thoroughly surprised. Max had left her his contact information during those few days he spent in Cloudville.
"Did you know about Felicia pregnancy?" Max demanded.
She did not elaborate further, but she was telling the truth. Ms. Ross was genuinely a good person, and very generous. Even though Mabel had only worked for her for less than two months, her wages had equated to half a year pay elsewhere. After canceling their contract, Ms. Ross had even sent her a gift. Employers like that were rare and precious. It was just a shame that Felicia was not returning to Cloudville.
Listening to her, Max did not ask anything else. He ended the call, lowered his phone, and turned to gaze out the window. The chilling aura surrounding him seemed to gradually thaw. Forty minutes later, the car slowly came to a halt in front of the grand gates of Ross Manor.
Inside the living room, everyone was present. Luke was also visiting the Ross family today. When Max suddenly appeared, everyone was taken aback. Darin walked over to him, stopping right in front of him. "What is going on?"
Max said nothing. He simply handed the medical report to Darin. A single glance was all it took for Darin to understand what it was. He reached out, took the paper, and noted the date. He could easily guess that Max had obtained this from Jeffrey. After reading it, Darin looked up at the emotionless man before him. Max did not seem like he was here to interrogate anyone, leaving Darin entirely uncertain of his true intentions.
