Chapter 662

“ Ms. Kelly , this is a bit tricky ,” the man replied .
Yalena said impatiently . “ What’s so tricky about it ? Didn’t we do it perfectly last time ? Or is 3 million still not enough for you? ”
“ Ms. Kelly , last time was in Mianara . This time is different . It’s too risky for us to do anything in broad daylight ,”
lena wouldn’t hear any of it . Enunciating each word coldly , she said , “ 6 million dollars .”
After a brief silence , the other party reluctantly agreed .
nan replied .
Yalena hung up the phone . She had it all figured out – after all , once the married Jonathan , she wouldn’t be short of that million dollars .
Valena thought , Jonathan doesn’t like me now , but once kill Teresa and her child , I’ll pretend to comfort him . I don’t believe he won’t fall for me
And then , if the Kelly family ever found out I was a fake heiress , I’d divorce Jonathan , take the family fortune , and disappear
At the Lynn residence , Werner planned to move in with Hayden to better assist with his daily needs .
Hayden snoored , “ Stop pretending to care for me . You’re just a lonely bachelor . I don’t need your help ”
Werner was speechless .
Hayden also mocked Jonathan , saying , “ You’re no better than him . After all this time , you still can’t win your v
wife back . ”
Jonathan shook his head helplessly . He could tell Hayden was seeing red . Then he turned and headed to the dining room , curious to see what Gary was up to .
Gary was busy making coffee . With a smile , he handed a cup to Jonathan and said , “ Jonathan , I made this just for you . Go on, taste it ” He had already held the cup right up to Jonathan’s lips .
“ Is this coffee any good ? ” Jonathan asked skeptically , taking the cup .
Pretending to be hurt , Gary said , “ Jonathan , don’t break my heart . ‘ see you as my friend now , and that’s why I’m being so nice to you . ”
Jonathan lifted the cup and took a cautious sip
“ Come on , finish the whole cup ,” Gary urged , rubbing his hands together eagerly , his eyes gleaming with expectation
“ Just so – so , ” Jonathan said with a raised brow . But out of courtesy , he finished the whole cup .
Gary ! set the cup aside , planning to seal it later . He’d already consulted with doctors . Hair with follicles wasn’t strictly necessary for a DNAs . Any item that could yield DNA would suffice – a used drinking glass , a toothbrush , or even chewed gumi .
Jonathan suddenly asked , “ Did you have something to say at the hospital the other day ? ”
Gary snapped back to attention , his expression tuthing serious . “ Yes .”
Jonathan narrowed his eyes , suspicion creeping into his voice . “ What exactly are you trying to say ! ”
Gary shook his head , “ I can’t tell you now , Jonathan I’m afraid you won’t believe me without proof Knowing you demand solid evidence , I’ve decided to show you the evidence .
“ What tricks are you playing ? ” Jonathan braced his hands on the sink and foxed Gary with a piercing , intense stare .

Seeing Michael clutching his stomach , Teresa immediately dropped her luggage and rushed over to him . His pale face had a cold sweat . She worried that Michael had overeaten . They couldn’t take the seafood from the fridge , so she had cooked it all for him earlier .
Teresa couldn’t eat any seafood herself because she was pregnant , so Michaelded up having it . But Teresa thought he hadn’t water that much .
Teresa poured some water for Michael , but he still clutched his stomach in pain , cold sweat streaming down his face even more . Without hesitation , Teresa dropped everything , scooped Michael up , and rushed him to the hospital ,
While driving , Teresa called Jennifer , a doctor at Nareigh General Hospital , to ask if she could secure a bed for Michael in advance . Teresa was worried they’d get there and find no available beds .
Jennifer didn’t pick up . Teresa hung up the phone and muttered bitterly . “ Why even bother calling her ? ”
Michael whimpered , curling up in his seat , “ Am I gonna die ? ”
Teresa said urgently . “ Of course not . Just hold on a little longer , okay ? We’re almost at the hospital . ”
Jennifer was doing the laundry at home for the first time since she married Donald . Donald’s emotions were tangled . He couldn’t tell if she was trying to curry favor with him or if she just felt guilty .
.Donald wondered , “ Could Jennifer have some shady secret with Gary ? No , she promised she wouldn’t lie to me . I should trust hert
“ I just heard your phone ring . Maybe you should check who it is , Donald said as he walked into the bathroom ..
Jennifer muttered to herself , “ Wonder if the hospital needs me to come back again . ”
Jennifer unlocked her phone and saw Teresa’s missed call . A frown creased her brow , she’d thought Teresa wouldn’t contact her again . She called back . “ Hey , did you just call me ? ” Jenniler asked .
“ Mike has a stomachache , I was hoping you could secure a bed for him in advance , but never mind , Teresa sald curtly , hanging up .
“ Hello ? ” Jennifer stared at the disconnected phone . Hearing the commation on the other end , she wondered , “ is Teresa at the hospital now ?”
Donald hung up the laundry Jennifer had just washed , since they both worked during the day , laundry usually had to wait . Just then , he noticed Jennifer slipping on her coat , ready to head out . “ Where are you going ? ” he asked .
“ Mike- ” Jennifer caught hersell , gripping her car keys . She said , “ Teresa’s sick . I’m going to check on her at the hospital . ”
Donald still had his doubts , but Jennifer was already out the door . He noticed her scarf was still on the table . Worried she might catch a cold on such a cold day , he quickly grabbed his coat and rushed out after her .
Jennifer drove off in her car . Donald followed closely and saw her turn onto Sycamore Road , confirming it was the route to Nareigh General Hospita As he glanced at the scarf on the passenger seat , he felt a sudden wave of regret and thought , I was wrong , I shouldn’t have doubted my wife !
As Donald was about to leave , a car sped past him through the barrier . In that instant , his keen eyes caught a fleeting glimpse of the driver’s profile , and

He then saw Gary pull over to the side of the road , and Jennifer followed suit , Gary seemed to be speaking gravely , and acha wataber his car , Jennifer grabbed his arm , her expression furious .
From where he stood , Donald couldn’t make out their words , but he could see the fury and panic fash like this before , Donald thought , feeling shocked
