Chapter 339

As the couple returned home from their walk, the atmosphere was warm and romantic.

Ellison answered a call, his originally gentle and doting eyes turned cold when he heard the words on the other end of the phone.

“I got it. Send her back and keep a close watch on her clinic and any movements.”

Hearing the word “clinic,” Joycelyn’s sweet smile faltered. “Is something wrong with Leah?”

“Leah was feeling unwell at the hospital, so the Zoerner family took her away.”

“After all, she is pregnant. The Mason family has raised her for over twenty years. They probably couldn’t bear to be too ruthless,” Joycelyn sighed softly.

Leah stepped out of the bath and sat in front of the vanity, applying skincare.

She appeared completely unaffected.

Leah carefully applied her skincare, treating Quentin as if he were invisible.

After more than ten minutes of silence, Quentin couldn’t hold back anymore and finally summoned the courage to speak.

“Leah… I made you some chicken soup. Would you like to have some?”

“Do you think I still have the appetite for this right now? Take it away. Just looking at it makes me sick!” Leah spoke coldly, her eyes filled with disgust.

“You’re pregnant now. You need more nourishment.” Quentin slowly walked forward.

Leah shot him a glare through the mirror.

Quentin immediately stopped in his tracks.

“Don’t think I don’t know. You and the Mason family are working together to set me up. But don’t worry, I’ll keep this bastard child. At least for now, I still need it to keep myself safe.” Leah’s gaze was laced with venom as she stared Quentin down.

Quentin wanted to explain, but he realized he didn’t dare to provoke Leah any further.

“Take it away and get out!” Leah didn’t bother to hide her disdain. She directly ordered Quentin to leave with the food he had brought.

Quentin didn’t dare to complain, nor did he hesitate.
