CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

“I don't think the doctor was speaking nonsense. We can easily detect the potential temperament of a baby during pregnancy with the latest technology,” Natalie uttered solemnly.

It was considered a usual checkup during pregnancy in certain countries. Even so, it was usually performed upon request domestically. The domestic hospitals did not implement it widely to eliminate any unintentional abortion due to a potential error during checkups.

“You're right, but Mrs. Graham did not accept the doctor's advice. She refuted that it wouldn't be any problem to nurture her child despite the disorder. However, things did not turn out as expected. Jacqueline caused someone's death indirectly when she was only a child at that time.” Her secretive tone resulted in an ominous atmosphere.

“Do you mean to say that Jacqueline killed someone when she was only a child?” Natalie gasped as her heart skipped a beat.

Lucinda shook her head. “She did not kill anyone but caused someone's death indirectly. Anyway, I'm not sure if all that is true.”

Natalie gulped and asked, “When did you hear about this?”

“Should be eighteen years ago,” Lucinda responded after pondering for quite a while.

In a split second, Natalie was on pins and needles. My goodness! Jacqueline was only a ten-year-old child eighteen years ago, wasn't she? How was it possible for a child to be responsible for someone's death? Just what kind of monster is she?

“Mrs. Brown, who was the victim?” Natalie asked again inquisitively.

Lucinda shook her head again. “I have no idea. The others seem to be clueless about it as well. The wife of one of my husband's friends only mentioned that she overheard Mrs. Graham reprimanding her daughter for repaying someone's kindness with her hideousness instead. Nevertheless, she did not mention the victims' names.”
