Chapter 556

Sammy was stunned.

She was not stupid. She understood what Zeke meant immediately.

After all, there was only one pregnant woman in the residence.

“M-Mr. Zeke, don't tell me you—please don't. Ms. Gourd is pregnant with your child. The child is also a descendant of the Shurmer family. I've been with the family for many years. How can I let you harm the eldest grandchild of the Shurmer family?”

Of course, she was afraid she might bring trouble to herself if she accepted the job.

Won't Mr. Shurmer and Mrs. Shurmer kill me if they find out that Mr. Zeke ordered me to get rid of the eldest grandchild of the Shurmer family?

Zeke tapped the table gently.

He was not one to wear his heart on his sleeve. Although he was sitting there silently, he could see through everyone.

The Shurmer family name had been passed down for many generations, but there weren't any outstanding descendants.

It was not until this generation that one, Zeke, was born. In a few years, he had pushed the family business toward the international market, making the Shurmer family one of the most famous and prestigious families worldwide.

“I won't tell you anything more. You should know who's in charge of the family now. I'll only ask you one question. Will you do it or not? If you will, I will personally increase your monthly salary tenfold so your family can live a wealthier life. If you won't, pack your things and leave the Shurmer residence. Remember this: I, Zeke Shurmer, don't support useless people.”

As she fell to the ground, Sammy trembled in fear and begged, “M-Mr. Zeke, if you don't mind me asking, why can't you accept the child in Ms. Gourd's womb?”

“Because I don't love her, nor do I want to marry her. If there is a child, I will be forced to marry her. I would rather be alone for the rest of my life than be tied down by marriage.”

Sammy paled at that. She knew Zeke's personality. Since he was determined, there was nothing that a housekeeper like her could do to change his mind.

“A-All right. I'll agree to help you create an accident that will cause Ms. Gourd to miscarry.”

“Okay. I'll wait for your good news.”

Meanwhile, at the Hoffman residence, Juliana was sitting on the couch and reading news about Zeke and Shirley on her phone.

The news wrote: The head of the Shurmer family, Zeke Shurmer, has given tacit confirmation that Shirley Gourd of the Gourd family is pregnant. The couple is suspected to have gotten married due to an unplanned pregnancy. According to relevant sources, Ms. Gourd is pregnant with a son. A mother's status becomes elevated through their child. Ms. Gourd is set to become the matriarch of the Shurmer family.
