Chapter 600 The next morning, Gregory had Lucius bring breakfast to the hospital room.
After Christine Jackson and I had eaten, the nurse cin to change her dressings.
Christine didn't wantto watch. "Honey, your goddaughter and you are one and the snow. If you're upset, it could directly affect her development. Let's not watch this, okay?" "Alright." I couldn't argue with her, and just then, Bella called me, givingthe perfect excuse to step outside.
"Jane, where are you? Mom's here to see you. Zoe said you weren't home." I suddenly remembered that my mom had mentioned she'd cto visit.

I thought about lying to avoid worrying her, but then I remembered that one lie often leads to another.
And, with the Taylor family's connections, my uncle would surely end up telling her everything.
If she found out she'd been lied to, that'd hurt even more. Better to just be honest from the get-go.
"I'm at the Ford family's hospital." Half an hour later, Bella arrived at the hospital.
She and Ivy were carrying several bags, probably trying to avoid drawing attention from fans and causing a disturbance, dressed more casually than usual, with masks and sunglasses.
Noticing patients starting to glance curiously at her, I quickly ushered her into my room. "Mom, you didn't have to call this way, I'm really fine." "As your mother, should I wait until something serious happens to csee you?" After taking off her mask and givinga thorough once-over, Bella finally relaxed, seeing I was indeed alright. "I told you, things were going to be rough for a while. I asked you to stay has much as possible, or at least bring more bodyguards if you had to go out." "I did." I sat her down. "But sthings just can't be prevented." I explained everything that had happened, and anger flashed in Bella's eyes. "Victor is as foolish as ever!" "His past antics were one thing, but now he's after your life over sinheritance? Has he lost his mind? Don't worry about it, I'll deal with him." I didn't want her to get entangled with Victor because of me, to spare her the trouble.
"Gregory will handle it. You don't need to confront Victor and get disgusted by him and Pearl." "Don't worry, I have your uncle too. We don't need to step in personally." Bella immediately called Herbert Taylor. "We can't leave everything to Gregory alone; his father isn't exactly easy to deal with either. Let your uncle help out." This time, I didn't stop her, thinking she made a good point.
Even if Gregory was capable, he was just one person and could only do so much.
And my uncle wasn't an outsider after all.

"If there's nothing keeping you here, you shouldn't stay in the hospital too long. Being pregnant in a place like this isn't great for your immune system." "I was thinking the sthing."
Christine emerged from the bathroom just in tto catch the tail end of our conversation and chimed ve in "I can stay and keep an eye on things here. I have to be hospitalized until my stitches are removed anyway."
Speaking of which, Bella beckoned Christine to sit. "I really need to thank you properly. Is there anything special you like? What about the new Hermès bag that cout this year? It would suit you perfectly."
Christine was flattered but quickly declined, "Bella, you don't have to be so formal. If Jane were in danger, I wouldn't hesitate to protect her either." Bella insisted, "That's a different matter. For now, I have to thank you." "Whatever you like, just letknow." After a moment's thought...
What Christine liked but hadn't got was Dailey Clarkson.
But she wasn't one to cling to what wasn't hers; if Dailey had someone else in his heart, she wouldn't pursue him.
With a light smile, she said, "I can't think of anything right now. Maybe raincheck?" Ashburn X
