Chapter 484 Wrong Timing

That woman just had to say the wrong thing at the wrong time.

have to look at me like that?

The street cleaning lady watched her get on the bus, patted her chest, and subtly let out a sigh of relief. Why did that girl's gaze seem so frightening? Why did she get mad when I told her she was going to have a chubby boy? Even if she wanted a daughter, did she really Inside the car, Summer instructed the driver to head straight back to Jeahron.

She hadn't been detained for long before she was released on bail, and her visit to Jacaster was due to a summons.

She leaned against the chair, her heart these past days like the persistent drizzle in the north, under a canopy of dark clouds, a steady pitter-patter, dull and oppressive.

Just like her life, her path was blocked by a massive boulder, with no end in sight.

There wasn't much to be happy about.

When she discovered she was pregnant while in the detention center, she could hardly believe it.

Recalling the incident that occurred in the garage that night, Summer felt nauseous, almost to the point of vomiting. She wished she could just abort it right then and there. However, it was impossible.

That was because she still needed to rely on that illegitimate child to be released on bail, to lessen her sentence, and to serve her non-custodial sentencing after the verdict.

She had no choice but to give birth to it.

Summer clenched her fists tightly.

Upon her return to the Hoffman residence, she was invited by friends to a gathering. There, she overheard whispers about her. They called her cold-hearted and ruthless, overly ambitious, a materialist, and shameless.

Ever since that incident, whenever she saw people whispering and murmuring in hushed tones, she couldn't help but feel they were discussing her.

Whenever someone looked at her, she felt as if they were silently mocking her in their minds.

On countless nights, she found herself gazing at her own belly, exerting an unimaginable amount of strength to resist the urge to plunge a knife into it.

Yet, she had no means to alter her current circumstances.

She couldn't do anything at that moment. Otherwise, it would only serve to intensify her sentencing in court.

As a result, Summer truly felt drained. Lenora... If she knew about the state I'm in now, she would probably be thrilled, wouldn't she?

Meanwhile, upon returning home, Lenora found two figures seated on the couch. The older one was engrossed in work on a laptop, while the younger one was absorbed in watching a cartoon.

She paused momentarily. After that, slipping on her slippers, she walked over. "How did you guys get in?" she asked.

"I know the password," Harrietta said with a chuckle.

"Do you know the password?" Lenora paused, watching Harrietta with a subtle smile.

"Yes..."
