Chapter 396 The Human Is Sinister
After coming out of the police station, Imogen received a call from Layla.
The concerned voice of Layla came from the phone. “Imogen. Oh, why didn’t you tell me what happened these days? I just know that you almost couldn’t come back! Are you estranged from me?”
Imogen said hurriedly, “Of course not. How could I be estranged from you? I just don’t want you to worry. I’m fine now.”
“Hey, I’m not as weak as you think. You hid Leo’s things from me. And now you hid your things from me, too. I’m considered deaf and mute!”
“You aren’t deaf and mute. It’s my fault this time. If anything happens in the future, I will definitely tell you first.”
“You just say nice things to make me happy. Oh… Today Walter called and said that they would come here to apologize tomorrow. Only then did I know that you were almost abducted. Walter’s second wife is your mother. Is the person who intended to abduct you your cousin? She is really a sinister person. So I want to ask you first. If you don’t want to accept their apology, I will tell them
not to come over.”
It turned out that Walter called to the Marshall villa. No wonder Layla suddenly found out about
- it.
Imogen thought of Ivette’s attitude and said, “Layla, there’s no need to call them over. Maybe Mr. Harrington is sincere, but it’s been done and I have nothing to say to them.”
Bullshit!
Layla thought, “If Imogen has no relationship with Troy, she is just an ordinary person. Will Walter personally come and apologize? Impossible!
Maybe he would even take action to save Ivette.”
“Okay, then I’ll tell them there’s no need to come over.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Imogen bought some fruits and went to visit Layla in the Marshall
villa.
But unexpectedly, Judith was also in the Marshall villa.
Seeing Imogen, Judith complained to her.
It turned out that she met Amber in the mall, and she despised Amber and asked Nicolas to break up with Amber. Nicolas agreed, but a few days later when he came home, he suddenly told her that Amber was pregnant!
Judith was so angry.
But her son just couldn’t control himself.
She discussed with Nicolas that she wanted Amber to abort the child and give her hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Unexpectedly, Amber disagreed, neither did Nicolas.
Judith had no choice but to allow Amber to give birth to the child and hold the wedding. But they couldn’t get the marriage certificate. Their divorce would be announced a few years later.
Imogen was surprised. “Nicolas probably won’t agree, right?”

Judith said, “He agreed.”
Imogen was stunned.
Seeing Imogen’s surprised look, Judith smiled, “He is my son, and I know him well. I think he isn’t that into Amber, and that he just wants that child.”
That was also her eldest grandson or granddaughter. If she wanted to keep it, she had to give it a serious family background. So she agreed to let Amber and Nicolas hold a wedding ceremony without getting a certificate. On the overt side the child was a legitimate child.
Imogen was speechless. “How many months is Miss Wade pregnant now? Has the wedding date. been set?”
“It is said that she was pregnant during the Christmas. It’s been more than two months now. I’ve discussed it with Aaron. The wedding date is set for next month. Keep everything simple.”
“Okay, within a few months, you will be able to hold your grandson.”
Judith smiled, “Of course.”
Wesley and Grace were beautiful, smart and cute. Judith was really envious. She
had wished for a long time to have a grandson, otherwise she would not let Amber give birth to the child.
It was just that Judith was not satisfied with Amber. Thinking of Amber’s snobbish appearance, Judith made up her mind that when the child was born, she must educate the child well. She
couldn’t let the child learn from Amber.
After talking with Imogen for a while, Judith said goodbye to Layla and Imogen. She went to the shopping mall and collected rents incidentally.
In addition to Aaron’s catering company, they also had several houses and shops, which had been rented out. Now at the end of the month, it was time to collect rents.
Most of the houses and shops of Judith were in high–end communities and downtown areas. The tenants all had signed agreements for several years. The rent was paid annually or half a year. There was only one ordinary community, which was beside the university. The new tenant was in some financial difficulties and paid monthly.
Judith originally didn’t want to rent to that tenant because of the monthly payments. But the pant was a girl in college with an old and sick father, she was well–behaved and sensible, so
ith took pity upon her and agreed.
cts proved that she was right. The girl was filial and polite. Last time, she even gave her a basket of sweet potatoes. Although it wasn’t a fancy thing, it was a thoughtful gesture.
The old community had a total of six floors. The house was on the first floor, which was very convenient.
Arriving at the house, Judith knocked on the door.
Footsteps sounded. “Coming.” The door was opened from the inside, and a young woman stuck her head out. “You are here, come in and sit down.”
“Hey, Ann, you came home so early today? Doing the laundry?” Judith walked in, looked at the spinning washing machine, sat down on the sofa, and asked with a smile.
Ann poured water for Judith and replied, “There is only one class this afternoon, so I come back to clean up. Please drink some water.”
“Put it here, I’m not thirsty. How is your dad doing now?”

“He’s fine. He went out with a kettle after dinner. He’s very positive.” Ann said with a smile, “By the way, I made some desserts, please try some.”
Her father was almost recovered, but he was still taking medicine. Ann didn’t want to let him. alone in hometown, so she rented a two–bedroom house near the school. They lived together. Her father was conscientious and diligent. Although he still had a lot of money, he couldn’t sit on his hands. He couldn’t do hard work, so he found a job nearby as a gatekeeper, which earned him two thousand dollars a month.

After Ann returned to school, she took care of her father while studying. She also had a part–time job on weekends, so her life was not bad.
Ann went to the kitchen and brought over a plate of desserts. She also put some in a lunch box for Judith to take away.
Judith had a bite and said, “Not bad, I’ll take these away. You are very good at cooking. You don’t know how I wish I had a daughter like you. Unfortunately, I only have one son, and he always makes me angry.”
Ann smiled, “Your son is so outstanding. Many people would envy you.”
She heard from Judith that her son worked in the Marshall Group.
“Stop speaking for him.”
Judith looked around the living room.
The small house was kept clean and tidy. There were several green plants that were growing well on the balcony, adding a bit of vitality to the deserted house.
Ann took out a stack of cash from the room and handed it to Judith. “I intended to send it to you tomorrow, but I didn’t expect you to come here today. Then I don’t need to make a trip.”
After sitting here for a while, Judith left.
She glanced casually and seemed to see a bottle of folacin on the TV table.
A hint of doubt flashed in Judith’s mind, and she glanced at Ann’s belly without any trace. She felt that she was overthinking it.
Folacin should be taken by her father. Elderly people taking folic acid could prevent Alzheimer’s disease.
