Second Marriage to Mr. Rich
Chapter 79

Chapter 79

Gregory's mother had lost contact with her family in the country for decades due to issues

with his father. Therefore, Gregory had no idea that Ned was diagnosed with amnesia after the car accident. He only thought he was behaving strangely.

Ned strode out of the hotel. When he saw the valet helping another guest into a cab, Ned pulled the other guest away and got into the cab instead. Amidst the other guest's grumbles, Ned tossed all his cash to the driver.

"To Cloudsville College. Step on it!"

The driver noticed that Ned's arm was injured and wore a grim expression. However, his car zoomed off instantly when he saw the stack of cash.

Angeline tossed and turned on her bed after a shower. She didn't know what to do with her baby.

When she recalled her encounter with Robert in the car, she decided to keep her pregnancy a secret from Sean.

She felt that it was partly her fault for forgetting to take the morning-after pill.

Her phone buzzed on the bedside table.

She reached for her phone and glanced at it. It was an unknown number.

Worried that something had happened to Henrietta, she sat up straight and answered the call.

"Hello-"

"Angeline, I'm downstairs at your dorm. Come down!"

Angeline thought she was hearing things when Ned's commanding voice echoed through the phone.

Ned

grew

frustrated when he received no response from her, though the call was still ongoing.

"Can you hear me, Angeline?" he snapped impatiently.

"Ned, who do you think you are to tell me what to do?" she asked.

If this had happened when she still held hope for him, she would've dashed downstairs the moment she received his call.

She would seize any opportunity to be with him, helping him recall their relationship.

However, this was no longer the case.

"We're divorced, and I moved to Cloudsville to avoid you. You shouldn't have come looking for me!" she spat, unable to hold back her fury.

"Back then, you used to avoid me as if I were a plague, even resorting to the extreme measure of drugging me. Didn't you do all that just to keep me away from you? But look at what you're doing now. Do you have any dignity at all?"

Angeline felt very offended by the way Ned ordered her around. It could partly be the influence. of the pregnancy hormones.

On the other end of the phone, Ned clutched his phone firmly. He was on the verge of cursing at her but suppressed the urge to do so.

Remembering that she was pregnant, he softened his tone and replied, "I'm calling you as your alumni. I'm right outside your dorm. I need to tell you something. Come down."

"There's nothing left to say between us. If you harass me again, I will inform Ms. Dalton about this and have her take you back!" she retorted before hanging up immediately.

Just as she silenced her phone and was about to sleep, Angeline received a message.

****28: "If you don't want everyone to know about your pregnancy, come down now!"

Her heart skipped a beat. However, she got a hold of the situation quickly.

Alva must've seen the pregnancy test strips in the bin.

There were many lab experiments that pregnant women shouldn't participate in. Although Angeline didn't bring it up, Alva would have informed everyone in the lab. She might even remind them to be more attentive toward her, just as they did with Marion.

Since the lab members knew, Ned's cousin, Gregory, must've also learned about this.

Angeline closed her eyes. She got up and pulled the curtain back before looking down.

Ned stood under the street lights. He was dressed in all black. He wore a turtleneck cashmere sweater beneath his leather jacket. He sported a pair of black pants and black boots.

He stood tall and imposing with his six-foot stature, looking particularly stunning under the
