Chapter 199

Chapter 199 

Stephanie didn’t sleep well last night. She tossed and turned in bed and finally fell asleep in the early hours of the morning, but she had many bizarre dreams. When she woke up, she found that it was almost 11 AM. 

The apartment was quiet, Stephanie got up in a daze and went to the bathroom to wash up. She remembered that Molly had yelled. Tm going out” before she went out this morning. Molly was not at home because she had an interview today. No wonder it was so quiet 

Someone rang the doorbell. It was not until the doorbell rang twice that Stephanie came to her senses. Stunned, she immediately walked to the door 

“Did you send it to the wrong place?” She looked at the delivery man at the door and said, “I didn’t order any takeout.” 

1 delivered it act 

it according to the address. It’s this place. 

Stephanie looked at the Gordon Hotel’s logo on the lunch box and sanelled the fragrance of skillet hash, thinking, Who ordered such expensive food for met 

Miss, the company stipulates that I have to deliver the food within 30 minutes, or 1 will be charged. Could you please sign for it first!” the delivery man urged Stephanie, looking a little anxious. 

“Oh.” Stephanie readily agreed, holding the lunch box in a good mood. She thought, Timist be the lunch that Molly ordered for me. 

She was very touched. She opened the food box and started eating at the small round table. 

Generally, the skillet hash contained shrimp, cuttlefish, crab sticks, eggs, and pineapple, Stephanie found that this skillet bash had relatively les seafood, and she couldn’t eat too much seafood during pregnancy. The shrimp was very fresh, and the pineapple tasted sweet, What was more. there were no eges. She did not cat eggs 

“Mally is sunable to be a nanny and housekeeper: Stephanie was sure that it was Molly who had ordered the food for her. Except her, who else could know so well that she didn’t eat egg 

Stephanie took a few bites with a spoon, thinking about what had happened last night 

She called Vincem last night to find out something about Dominick, but he hung up the phone for no reason

She ate half of the skillet hash, put down the spoon, and walked to the counter to get her mobile phone. She wanted to call Vincent to ask him, but as soon as she picked up the phone. Vincent called her. 

As soon as Stephanie answered the phone, Vincent asked her anxiously on the other end of the phone. “Stephanie, where did you get the pendant?” 

“What’s wrong with you?” She didn’t understand what he meant. 

Vincent lowered his voice and explained, “The crescent–shaped pendant in your rosewood box 

Stephanie was 

was stunned, and she didn’t reply. The crescent–shaped pendant… The rosewood box… 

“You. How do you know?” Her voice was a little low, sounding hesitant and annoyed. “Vincent, how could you do this! My box is locked, and I left it an Wellington Villa. Why did you…” 

How did Vincent know this? Suddenly, Stephanie widened her eyes. Was it Dominick who took the wooden box? 

You took my things without my permission. You are so rude!” She was angry, 

She would naturally get angry about this invasion of her privacy, and she had never wanted to tell anyone about the wooden box

Even if she didn’t want to talk about it, Vincent would still ask her. He called her in a hurry to figure it out. “Stephanie, the pendant is unique. It is transparent and bright red, and the material is rare. The pendant is crescent–shaped, and there should be two of them, which can be combined into 

incent was quite familiar with antiques, so he found that the pendant was unique when he took a look at it in the wooden box. 

In ancient times, some young people from wealthy families would give a pendant to their loved ones as a token of affection. Nowadays, the elders in the upper clan would give these precious and representative things to their descendants to pass down from generation to genterMION 

Stephanie was shocked because Vincent was right. Thai pendant was a token of engagement. 

“Does it have anything to do with you?” she retorted, not wanting to talk to him. 

Hearing her stulibom tone, Vincent immediately lost his temper and narri. “Dominick luas been bunny recently because of tut pristani!” 

Stephanie held the phone with a shocked expression. She wanted to say something but suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen 

Chapter 199 

The pain made her break out in a cold sweat, and she felt weak all over. 

The phone fell straight to the floor with a bang. 

Vincent was stunned, shouting anxiously. “Hey, what happened to you? Stephanie! Stephanie 

He was terrified. He shouted several times, but there was no response from the other end of the phone. 

“What happened to her all of a sudden? She was fine last night. 

Molly was halfway through the interview when she received a call from Vincent, who said that something might have happened to Stephanie She was so scared that she left the interview midway and rushed back home 

Tm fine, Stephanie said weakly and lay on the hospital bed. 

passed off. He glared at Stephanie and yelled at her, 

“You still have the nerve to say you are fine. Shut up!” Vincent was in a rage, and he was almost pissed “Stephanie, are you an idiot? You dared eat the food from nowhere!” 

He had just been scared. If something had happened to Stephanie, he would have been doomed. 

Fortunately, it was just stomach supset caused by eating the wrong food. 

“It’s not my fault. When I got up. I received a takeout Stephanie explamed, feeling somewhat guilty. In fact, she was also terrified because of the sudden severe pain in her abdomen just now, and she was really afraid that something would happen to her twin sons. It so, she would regret it for 

the rest of her life 

She added, “I thought Melly ordered the food for me. 

dat Gordon Hotel was so expensive, and she would never order such a costly takeout.. 

Molly said with a poker face, “You are overthinking. The food a 

TT be more careful in the future.” Stephanie had no choice but to admit her negligence. She looked up at Molly and Vincent and said seriously, “Please don’t tell Dominick and George about this. Keep it a secret, okay?” 

At least they couldn’t know this matter for now. Otherwise, Stephanie would be poorly scolded. 

Vincent didn’t want to talk to her anymore. He snorted angrily and turned to walk out of the ward. Seeing Stephanie’s normal complexion, Molly breathed a sigh of relief and followed Vincent out. letting Stephanie rest well. 

“Stephanie is sometimes willful, but she knows what she can do. This matter was just an accident…” As soon as Molly left the ward, she whispered to Vincent and explained, speaking up for Stephanie. Otherwise, Stephanie would really be severely scolded by the Wellington family. 

“She will be careful next time. In fact, she is not as arrogant and pampered as rumored. She is sharp–tongued and soh–hearted” Molly spoke righteously and almost swore on behalf of Stephanie 

“Even Dominick can’t do anything to her. What do you think I can do to ber? 

Since Stephanie was fine, Vincent relaxed and put on his usual smile on his face. He bought two cups of hot coffee and handed one to Molly. 

He teased. “You and Stephanie have a good relationship” 

Molly took the coffee and chuckled with a frown when she heard this “It’s my retribution to have her as my friend” 

She took a sip of the coffee. They were really anxious just now, and only then dad they feel thirsty. She thought some rich second–generation prople, like Vincent, were quite reasonable and considerate. 

Vincent asked, “Do you know who delivered the takeout to your apartment?” 

“No” Molly trally didn’t know

Stephanie was fine. Vincent would ask someone to the hotel to check the rest. It was not difficult, but there was another thing that he was more 

Vincent looked at Molly and thought for a while. “You are so familiar with Stephanie. I as she ever mentioned her pendant to your“
