CHAPTER 66: CHAPTER 66: YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHEN YOUR WIFE IS GETTING DISCHARGED?

These two people both hurt her deeply.

If things could still be kept under control, Shayla Randall thought, Serena wouldn’t want them to know.

The illness had progressed to this point, and she knew that although she could temporarily have a caregiver look after her, notifying the family was inevitable.

They underwent treatment that day.

This is a highly confidential private sanatorium, and because of Serena’s deliberate concealment, no one else knew about her condition until she was discharged.

Upon discharge, Shayla Randall advised Serena to take her medication on time, have regular check-ups, and comforted her, saying she could relax and unwind.

Serena didn’t say much and simply returned to her newly rented apartment.

The miscarriage and the fall had somewhat healed, and while Aeston First Hospital was processing her discharge papers with Bianca Lynch’s help, Serena didn’t have to worry about these things.

For a moment, she didn’t know what to do or what she was doing.

Later, it was Jasper Ford who found her.

...

At the Ford Entertainment practice building, Serena was preparing for the third stage of "Heavenly Sound."

Her phone vibrated, and when Serena checked, it was a call from Julian Lawson.

Technically speaking, they were still in the divorce cooling-off period, still legally married, so she should discuss certain things with him.

However, before long, she might have nothing to do with Julian Lawson, so...

After thinking about it, Serena didn’t answer.

The Lawson Corporation.

President’s office.

Julian Lawson listened to the busy signal on the phone, pursed his lips tightly.

Without hesitation, he grabbed his car keys and was about to leave.

But just as he stepped out, he heard whispers—

"Did you see the gossip online? It’s about the madam taking a child to school."

"I saw it, I saw it, such big news!"

"What do you think is going on? Is that child President Lawson’s and the madam’s?"

"I don’t know, didn’t you see Secretary Chaucer busy running around all day? I guess he’s dealing with this issue."

"What do you think the madam is trying to do? Declare her sovereignty? Or something else?"

"I don’t get it either, but having the child show up now, there are only a few possibilities: one, declaring sovereignty; two, fighting for the inheritance."

"I wouldn’t have thought of that if you hadn’t mentioned it, about the inheritance!"

"Isn’t it? Haven’t you seen it in TV dramas where an illegitimate child shows up to split the inheritance? Now that President Lawson is with Vera Hansen every day, it’s understandable if the madam wants to take something and leave in the end."

Suddenly, someone noticed Julian Lawson coming out and immediately called out, "President Lawson!"

Everyone else stopped talking and bowed together.

Julian Lawson just glanced at them and then took the elevator down.

What exactly is Serena trying to do?

Is this her new tactic?

Earlier, he thought she had learned to be sensible, but now it seems she’s just changed her approach.

She’s still causing trouble!

In his mind, he could seem to hear Vera Hansen’s broken sobs.

Julian Lawson got into the car, wanting to find Serena to get some answers, but for a moment, he hesitated.

Because he didn’t know where to find her.

Since their last encounter at the hospital, they hadn’t seen each other again.

Previously, when he went to the hospital to see her, it was only through the ripple glass door that he saw her silhouette leaning against Ethan Lynch.

Is she still in the hospital?

Thinking this, Julian Lawson started the car and headed toward Aeston First Hospital.

After so many days, he finally came here again.

But after inquiring, he found out Serena had been discharged.

The person he asked seemed speechless during the inquiry.

The nurse said, "You don’t even know when your own wife got discharged?"

Julian Lawson pursed his lips tightly, said nothing, and turned to leave.

Back in the car, Julian Lawson called Serena again.

She didn’t answer.

Then, he called Bianca Lynch.

Bianca Lynch picked up.

"What’s the matter?" Bianca Lynch’s voice came through.

"Where is Serena?" Julian Lawson asked.

Bianca Lynch retorted directly, "You don’t even know where your own wife is? And you’re asking me? Ridiculous!"

Julian Lawson furrowed his brow slightly.

"Bianca Lynch, I’m being serious with you," he said, "What’s going on with her and the child by her side?"

Bianca Lynch certainly knew what was going on, but she didn’t say.

"Why don’t you ask her yourself? Why come to me?" Bianca Lynch said, "Didn’t I call you before and you said I was stirring up trouble for you on Serena’s behalf?"

"Now don’t come to me, I’m afraid I’ll say something wrong, and then you’ll say Serena and I are conspiring to deceive you."

"I don’t want to take the blame!"

After speaking, Bianca Lynch hung up the phone.

Julian Lawson listened to the busy signal and felt a nameless rage in his heart.

He punched the steering wheel.

"Honk—"

The Bentley let out a loud honk.

Serena.

She’s really becoming more formidable.

Previously, it was just little disturbances, but this time she’s directly brought out a child!

She clearly knows he likes children.

Countless times during their intimate moments, he would gently stroke her belly, coaxing her to give him a child, but...

Taking a deep breath, Julian Lawson calmed himself a bit and tried calling Serena again.

Still no connection.

Julian Lawson got even angrier.

This might be the first time in his life he was so furious.

"Buzz buzz..."

The phone vibrated, Julian Lawson sneered, thinking it was a call from Serena.

But when he checked, it was not; it was a call from his grandfather.

Furrowing his brow slightly, Julian Lawson answered the call.

"Grandfather," he said.

"Come back to the estate tonight!" Caleb Lawson’s voice was full of anger.

"Julian Lawson, don’t think that just because you run the Lawson Corporation you can do whatever you want, I’m not dead yet!"

Julian Lawson rubbed his temple, nodded in agreement.

Finally, he tried to calm his grandfather, "Grandfather, don’t get angry, it’s not good for your health."

"Now you care about my health!" Caleb Lawson huffed, then hung up the phone.

...

On the other side.

Serena looked at the incoming call.

It was from Julian Lawson’s grandfather.

After hesitating for a moment, she answered.

But once the line connected, she didn’t know how to address him.

After marrying Julian Lawson, she had been following Julian in calling him grandfather, but now they were in the cooling-off period...

Without figuring it out, she remained silent.

Caleb Lawson on the other end was silent, and after about three seconds, a long, aged sigh came through.

"Serena, come to the estate tonight, okay?" Caleb Lawson’s voice was gentle, "Even if you’re upset with Julian, you should come see this old man."

Serena gripped her phone tightly, and finally, she nodded.

"Okay," she replied.

She indeed needed to go to the estate.

Many things needed to be addressed.

Time flew by, and night fell.

Parking, getting out of the car.

After many days, Serena stood once again outside The Lawson Estate.
