Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1881

Nina's eyes flashed with disappointment.

In her eyes, Jean was her son but she was not her daughter…

"Whether or not I'm lying to you, you’ll soon know the truth. In the afternoon, ask the nurse to push you to the hospital’s detention ward. That’s when you’ll know whether or not I'm lying to you." Nina spun around and left the ward after speaking.

Anna's cursing could be heard from behind. Nina was not willing to listen and was not bothered by it.

From childhood all the way to adulthood, she had only ever held a place in Anna’s heart when Jean was still doing alright.

When Jean started walking a crooked path, her status in Anna’s eyes starting falling as well. She could not understand. She had given everything she had to Jean, including the chance to further her studies.

He ultimately failed to become a good person, yet Anna pushed all the blame on Nina.

'Why is this happening to me? Is it because I'm not a son?'

Nina felt her limbs weaken. She sat on the long bench along the corridor of the hospital and took a deep breath.

The thought of it made her sigh helplessly. Her phone rang, and Nina answered the call. "Hello?"

"Hi, I’m calling from the public security bureau. We're informing you that we've moved Jean into the detention ward where he will continue to receive his treatment. Please take note of the visiting hours and location if you wish to visit him." A man's voice was heard.

"Alright, got it." Nina hung up the call. There were specific hours to visit someone who was in the detention ward. If she did not follow the timing, she would not be able to visit Jean.

Currently, she was clueless about what to do next. All she could do was wait for Tyrone to get out of the life-threatening crisis before thinking of her next step.

She wanted to seize the chance to peacefully reach a settlement for Jean’s sake.

As soon as she hung up the call, Nina's phone rang once again. This time, it was a number she was unfamiliar with. She answered, "Hello?"

"Hi, are you Jean's younger sister?" The one speaking was obviously not a police officer. They had an aggressive tone.

"I am. You are..." Nina asked.

"I'm from NX bar. Last night, your brother Jean came to my place to have some liquor and later got into a fight with another guy. He destroyed a lot of things in the bar. Besides, he didn’t pay the bill for the liquor he had either. I got some people to ask the police and there’s no doubt everything is Jean’s fault. So, let’s not delay things or go through the formal procedures as it’ll affect my business and the renovation work that needs to be done. Let’s just settle this privately, alright?” the guy said.

'Settle it privately?

'If we can privately settle Tyrone’s issue, we can definitely settle the bar's issue privately too.'

"I'll have no problems if the compensation amount that you suggest is reasonable,” Nina put forward the condition. She had been in the business field for so many years. Even though she had been well protected by Percy, she would not be easily fooled by others.

"It’s a deal. I've asked someone else to do the calculation. You may come over and I'll slowly explain it to you. Rest assured, I'm just following the market price. I won’t raise the price too high. Besides, there’s surveillance footage as proof. I wouldn’t simply accuse your brother," said the person from NX Bar.

Nina lowered her eyes and agreed to it. "Alright. I'll go over right now."

After ending the call, she checked the location of NX Bar.

She came to an understanding once she got to know the street the bar was located.

Indeed, Jean did not have too much cash on him that he could go to high-end bars. For a bar like this, the compensation wouldn’t be too much.

She thought that she did not need to inform Percy about this and would be able to settle it on her own.

After thinking about it, she immediately drove her car toward NX Bar.
