Chapter 53
Alison had just been saved, and her vital signs were unstable. A few seconds without oxygen would
certainly seal her fate.
Alison was like a ticking time bomb, and Ada could not allow her to continue to live. Only the dead
posed no threat, after all.
Of course, Ada had another reason to kill Alison. ‘Sophia is teetering on the edge of disaster, and I
just need to fan the mes to drive herpletely out of the Wilson family. It’s Sophia who’s
pushed Alison Into the water. If Alison dies now, all old and new scores will be settled, and I refuse
to believe that Jason will be able to protect Sophia then.”

With that thought, the murderous intent in Ada’s eyes grew more intense, and her mind echoed with
the reminder to finish Allison off
Her fingers clutched the oxygen tube, and she leaned in to whisper, “You old hag, just die.”
With a ruthless squeeze, the tube waspressed, cutting off the oxygen flow, and the heart
monitor next to them began to beep
incessantly.
Staring down at Alison’s wrinkled face, Ada silently prayed for her timely death, and her face began
to contort with malice.
“What are you doin
are you doing?” Jason’s stern voice pulled Ada back from the brink of insanity.
Startled, her body jerked sharply, a flicker of panic shing in her eyes. But she was smart; after a
brief moment of fright, she quickly released her grip on the oxygen tube. Thankfully, the high bed
hid her actions; otherwise, she would have been caught red–handed just now.
Regaining herposure, she mentally cursed herself for acting too rashly. “I must be more careful
in the future. No more taking such risks,” she thought.
“What did you just do? Why is Grandma’s heart monitor acting up?” Jason asked when Ada didn’t
respond, his tone cold.
Forcing down her panic, Ada slowly lifted her gaze to meet Jason’s, her voice choked. “The doctor
took my blood and said I’m having a boy. I thought about how happy Alison would be, knowing it’s
the Wilson family’s eldest grandson, so I couldn’t help but rush over and share the news with her.”
With that, she stepped toward Jason, her voice filled with feigned excitement. “Alison must have
sensed it; otherwise, the heart monitor wouldn’t have reacted that way. Jason, can Ie by and
talk to Alison more often from now on?”
Jason narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing her seemingly joyful expression for any hint of deceit.
Just then, Cam entered. Seeing Jason there, she couldn’t resist a sarcastic remark, “You finally
know what matters most.”
Jason’s brow furrowed, his gaze falling on Alison’s pallid face. “You all go out; I want to stay with
Grandma alone,” he said.
Cam bristled at the dismissal, ready to scold him, but Ada quickly took her arm, gesturing for a
stop. “Cam, you must be exhausted. Let me take you next door to rest
Cam patted Ada’s hand, a pleased smile on her face. “You’re always so considerate. The doctor
told me you’re expecting a boy. That’s wonderful news, a future for the Wilson family”
A blush appeared on Ada’s face. “It’s my good fortune to bear a child for the Wilson family
A sense of unrest brewed in Jason’s mind af he listened to their exchange. The outright discussion
of an illegitimate child was grating to his

cars.
After they left, Jason paced to Alison’s bedside, holding her hand, and asked in a strained voice,
“Grandma, am I right to keep Ada’s child? Sophia minds it terribly.”
Cam had just exited the room when she overheard his words, her expression darkening.
Supporting Ada into the adjoining restroom, she clenched her teeth and inquired, “Has that woman
alreadye to the dinner?”
Ada nodded with a smile. “You can rx, Jason sent her off to someone else’s bed. Their marriage
won’tst much longer.”
“That’s good to hear,” said Cam.
In the hospital, Amanda emerged from
