CHAPTER 292: CHAPTER 292: THE CHILD, LOST BY JULIAN LAWSON’S OWN HANDS

The fifth photo, in the hallway, shows Bianca holding Serena, with a large pool of blood seeping from Serena’s body, staining the floor a deep red.

The sixth photo is a critical condition notice with the mosaic removed, clearly stating that Serena fell down the stairs, miscarried, and suffered massive bleeding...

These photos have tricky angles, obviously taken secretly, or possibly captured from a video.

The public hadn’t yet figured out what these six pictures meant.

User 567 posted another update.

567: That day, luckily Serena was saved, otherwise, it would have been a double death. Retribution is certain; who owes whom a life is crystal clear.

That immediately set off an explosion.

Attentive netizens began analyzing these pictures one by one.

"Firstly, judging from the time on the critical condition notice, at that time, Serena and Julian hadn’t received their divorce certificate yet; they were still within the divorce cooling-off period, so technically they were still married."

"Then, according to the content on the critical condition notice, miscarriage... at that time, Serena was pregnant with Julian’s child!"

"Looking at these photos, it’s clear there was a dispute, Julian pushed his pregnant wife down the stairs for Vera Hansen’s sake!"

"His wife lay in the hallway bleeding profusely, and Julian didn’t even glance back, leaving with a swagger?"

"And Vera Hansen acted as if it was only right!"

...

For a moment, everyone couldn’t believe it.

"Is it real?" That was the most liked comment.

"If it’s real, Julian and Vera are inhumane!"

"Even if Serena didn’t die, it wasn’t a double death, but the child is undeniably gone!"

"That was Julian’s pregnant wife!"

It was beyond comprehension.

Even strangers wouldn’t push another person down the stairs like that, let alone a pregnant wife!

If a stranger saw someone falling down the stairs, they would even try to help, and even if worried about blame, they would call a doctor, and would be anxious.

But Julian and Vera seemed completely indifferent, not even looking back!

"Serena is panda blood!" Someone pointed this out.

"A rare blood type, massive bleeding, oh my, if the blood bank didn’t have her type, looking at those previous pictures posted by user 567, Serena lost so much blood..."

"Serena surviving is truly miraculous!"

With each new piece of information, people found themselves even more shocked.

Moreover, some were constantly searching through past tabloid news, trying to see what else happened on that day.

Then—

"I just found out that the gossip that day was, #Julian Lawson and Vera Hansen left Lawson Tower in the same car#."

"And the next day’s gossip was, ’Julian Lawson and Vera Hansen left the apartment together, and the always meticulous President Lawson didn’t even wear a tie, did he forget or what?’"

What seemed merely gossip at the time now seemed horrifying when put together.

It was hard to believe it was real.

How could it be something a human could do!

Vera’s die-hard fans kept insisting that user 567 was one of Serena’s people, fabricating these images to frame Vera.

Their evidence was that the signature on the critical condition notice wasn’t Julian Lawson’s, but Bianca Lynch’s.

"Can’t even fabricate properly, don’t you know that a critical condition notice requires a signature from an immediate family member or spouse? At that date, they hadn’t gotten the divorce certificate yet, so the signature should’ve been Julian Lawson’s."

User 567 hitherto ignored these comments but couldn’t take it anymore.

replied: Guess why it wasn’t signed by Julian? Because he walked away. I spied for a long time, the doctor called Julian numerous times but no one answered, eventually handled it urgently.

One person was relentless, questioning: Isn’t it that only family can sign the critical condition notice?

replied: Julian didn’t answer his phone or sign it, then should we just leave Serena there to die?

Vera’s die-hard fans were still dissatisfied, messing around, repeatedly claiming Vera was such a kind person, she only had six months to live at that time, and had no need to treat Serena this way, that user 567 was fabricating lies.

...

Meanwhile, at the apartment.

Julian hadn’t slept, he kept trying passwords.

After so long, the response remained the same—"Beep! Incorrect password!"

Throughout the night, he revisited the past.

Remembering the countless ways he had hurt Serena.

Every time he recalled a day, a date, his heart ached anew.

Unknowingly, he suddenly realized he had hurt her so deeply.

Over seven years, he removed the dates during their marriage, trying all other dates one by one.

All of this based on going to ask Bianca about the matter of those three pictures by user 567, Bianca changed her tune, suggesting Julian consider more than just the issue of the child.

All of this led Julian to believe that the three photos were related to the box’s password.

And since he hadn’t signed that critical condition notice, he excluded the time during their marriage.

Just half an hour ago, he even tried including the dates of their marriage.

Starting from a year ago, attempting towards the final date slowly.

Just then, his phone on the side vibrated furiously.

Julian turned his gaze towards it.

Long periods without eating, drinking, or sleeping left him groggy, slightly dizzy.

But he steadied himself and saw Jude Chaucer’s name.

At this time, Jude called him...

Thinking, Julian tapped the answer button.

"What is it?" Julian’s voice was hoarse.

"President Lawson, it’s bad!" Jude’s voice was more excited than ever, "Madam, Madam she..."

Julian immediately sat up straight: "What happened to Serena?"

Jude hesitated momentarily, the situation too complex, he needed to organize his words.

And Julian was already impatient, he checked the time, finding it was nearly noon, just a few minutes away from 12 o’clock.

Julian urged: "What is it about? Is it about her and Vera?"

"Sort of," Jude sent the link to user 567’s post to Julian, "I don’t know how to explain, President Lawson, please read it yourself, Madam... she previously had a massive bleeding and miscarriage."

Jude had been around Julian for many years, well understanding the situation between Julian and Serena.

He always knew that Julian had been wanting to have another child with Serena all these years.

In these days, Julian had gone mad, losing his senses, even wanting to force himself on Serena in the apartment, often thinking, if they had a child, would everything be different?

Serena and the child were Julian’s obsessions.

Jude hung up, mumbling softly, "If you knew, the child you always wanted, you killed with your own hands, even costing Serena most of her life..."

Suddenly shaken, Jude immediately called the assistant near the apartment.

In the apartment.

"Massive bleeding... miscarriage!"

Julian, burning with anxiety, quickly clicked the link Jude sent him.

Because so many people were reading and discussing, the server stuttered a bit.

Julian clicked the link, it spun a bit, then slowly loaded.

The first thing Julian saw was user 567’s id, avatar, then one photo after another loading up.
