Chapter 357

Patrick rubbed his hands together, feeling the weight of the situation. "The baby's on the way, and Nellie's been cooped up at home. This is a bit of a sticky wicket."

Greta leaned in. "Dad, she's heading to the hospital for her monthly check-up. You're pretty chummy with the head of the maternity ward, right? Just have them slip her some meds that could, you know, interfere with the baby's growth. Nature might just take its course." Patrick was taken aback. "Isn't that a bit too harsh?"

Greta coaxed, "Dad, think about it. If I become Mrs. Dawson, you'd be the father-in-law of someone big in business. With his backing, our company would be unstoppable."

People took risks for wealth just as birds faced danger for food.

Patrick decided to ignore any lingering doubts. "Alright, for your sake, I'll do it this once," he said, a determined glint in his eyes.

However, perhaps it was destiny's intervention, as Nellie managed to carry the pregnancy to term.

Soon enough, Nellie gave birth. She had a baby girl, but the little one had a congenital heart defect.
