Chapter 1907


    "Don''t worry, I''m fine."


    Cough, cough, cough.


    "I''ll head out to buy you some medicine," Betty Starmount offered and then quickly stood up and ran outside without even putting her coat on.


    Her feet were still bare.


    As soon as she stepped outside, tears streamed down her face uncontrobly.


    It was still snowing as she peered up at the sky. Her crying intensified, the sensation of pain in her abdomen was overwhelming.


    She ced one hand over her stomach and knelt on the ground, her body curled up against the frozen ground in the courtyard. There wasn''t a single maid around.


    Just like that, she lied on the ground and allowed snow to fall over her.


    After a long while, she slowly crawled her way up to enter her luxury car and drove away.

    The next morning, X Quest and Stanley Batton got into their car, hand-in-hand, after waking up.


    It had snowed all night, and it only stopped a while ago, making it appear as if the world was adorned in silver.


    The bodyguards were all busy sweeping snow.


    The atmosphere seemed lively.


    Stanley turned on the engine and drove toward the Quest family''s house next door.


    Meanwhile, X leaned into her seat and gazed at the snow outside.


    When they arrived at the Quest family''s house, the maids were also busy sweeping snow.


    Everyone seemed to be busy out in the courtyard.


    The northern winds blew against the snow on the roof, sending it flying in every direction as if it was snowing. Snow that melted on the roof had already be frozen, forming multiple icicles.


    It was a magnificent sight.


    X and Stanley held each others'' hands as they got out of the car, and then entered the house together.


    Unlike the cold, freezing weather outside, it was warm on the inside.


    They both removed their coats and walked into the living room to find Jeremy Quest reading a book on the couch. Cough, cough, cough.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

    Due to his frequent coughing, his voice had already turned hoarse.

    She was adorned in a white casual outfit with a ck apron around her waist.


    She looked like a typical, gentle housewife.


    "Don''t you have some scenes to shoot this morning? Aren''t you going out?" X asked.


    Betty chuckled and walked over to


    her. "I took the day off. Jeremy iszin such a terrible state that I can''t stop worrying about him. I still think it''s better if I stay home to look after him."
