Chapter 1468
After rejecting Julien, Vanessa waspletely relieved.
She had more than one million dors in her bank ount after selling the jewelleries and evening
gowns. Even if she didn''t sell the house, she still had enough money to pay for a fraction of Lawrie''s
medical bills for the time being. As for the remaining funds, she could take advantage of this time to
think of other ways to get the money.
When Vanessa got back to the hospital, Lawrie was still on drips and he looked extremely listless.
Vanessa stood at the side of the bed and gently stroked Lawrie''s head. "Lawrie, I''m back."
Lawrie blinked his reddened eyes and said, "Mommy, I''m hurting so much. I want to go home with
you."
Vanessa kissed him andforted, "You have to stay here. I''ll bring you home once you''re well,
okay?"
Lawrie shook his head. "No, Mommy. I will die if I stay here. I don''t want to stay here."
Vanessa caressed his head and said, "Lawrie, the hospital is a ce to make you healthy again.
Once you''ve recovered, I promise you that I''ll bring you home right away. As long as you listen to
the doctors, you definitely will not die."
Listening to such a young child talking about death, Vanessa was heartbroken. However, she
couldn''t show it. She must not let her emotions affect Lawrie.
With an innocent face, Lawrie asked in reply, "Really?"
Vanessa nodded. "Of course."
Lawrie asked in a soft voice, "Mommy, when will I be healthy again?"
Vanessa said, "Very soon."
Lawrie asked, "How soon?"
Vanessa did not know how to answer Lawrie.
Were children these days this smart?
She couldn''t even give him an ambiguous answer.
Lawrie asked again, "Mommy, how long will it take?"
Vanessa said, "It''s hard to say. But if you stay happy, listen to the doctor and take your medicine
every day, you should recover very soon."
In fact, even if Vanessa were to tell Lawrie a specific time, this little fellow wouldn''t know how long it
actually was anyway. However, Vanessa did not want to lie to him.
Lawrie nodded. "Okay. I will not cry anymore when the doctor gives me an injection and I will eat the
medicine on time. I will do my best to make myself healthy again. Then, we can go home together,
right, Mommy?"
Vanessa said with relief, "That''s right."
Lawrie was so sensible that Vanessa could not help but feel sorry for him. He was only a three-year-
old child, but he was much more mature than his peers.
Winnie said, "Our Lawrie is really a sensible boy."
Lawrie said happily, "My Mommy is a good girl, so am I."
Winnie smiled and said, "Vanessa, listen to him. He never forgets to praise you."
Vanessa was happy, and at the same time, distressed. "Yes, our Lawrie is such a sensible child."
On the same day, Vanessa contacted Rovio hospital and took care of Lawrie''s interhospital transfer
procedures. Rovio hospital was the best private hospital in Chatterton Town. It had the best doctors
and medical equipment but it was extremely costly. That one million dors probably would notst
for too long.
Hence, the biggest challenge at this moment was still to raise money for Lawrie''s treatment.
However, as long as Lawrie''s illness could be cured, money was not a problem.
Fortunately, although the cost was high, every patient would get a nurse exclusively for themselves.
With that, Vanessa could get back to work to make money.
Two days passed by in the blink of an eye. Vanessa was ready to go to work but when she was
about to leave for work, the man who imed to be Lawrie''s father, called her on the phone again.
Hence, Vanessa had no choice but to get another half day leave. Then, she went straight to the
appointed ce. She told herself that she would not let go of the man who ruined her life and
Lawrie''s life this time.
Vanessa arrived on time. The moment she arrived, someone walked up to her and asked her,
"Excuse me, are you Miss Vanessa?"
Hearing that someone calling her name, Vanessa looked back and saw a man dressed in a suit. It
was such a hot day but he was wearing a suit. However, it did not seem like he was bothered by the
heat at all.
Vanessa sized the man up. The man looked quite decent, but there was an obnoxious look in his
eyes. It made her feel sick by just taking a nce at him. However, Vanessa did not show her
disgust. She asked, "Who are you?"
The man answered, "Miss Vanessa, I was your first man, and we even have a child together. I can
recognize you at once nce. How can you not have any impression of me at all?"
Vanessa was at a loss of words. It was that man... so-called Jonathan.
Listening to Jonathan''s words, Vanessa was so disgusted that she almost threw up.
That Fiona Cobb was really vicious. How could she find such a man to defile Vanessa?

Jonathan ignored Vanessa''s pale face and continued to say, "I''ve never forgotten how charming you
were that night. Thinking of the way you were moaning that night, I still can''t help but get excited
even now."
Vanessa clenched her fists and bit her lip. "Shut up!"
She didn''t want to listen to what had happened that night. She was here to see him because she
wanted to get the evidence to prove that he was the one who sullied her that night. Once it was
confirmed that it was him, she must let him have a taste of the hardships she had gone through in
the past years.
"Shut up?" Jonathanughed, which made him look even more perverted. Looking at his face,
Vanessa really could not help but feel sick. However, it seemed like he did not know how disgusting
his face was. He said, "Miss Vanessa, you were crying and begging me to make love to you that
night but you don''t want to listen to it now? Why? Is it because you''ve found a rich backer, so you
don''t want me to talk about our passionate night anymore?"
Vanessa, "What do you mean?"
Jonathan said, "I heard that the president of Rovio had announced that you are his fiancee."
Vanessa was so angry that sheughed. "Since you know that the president of Rovio is my fiance,
then you should know how miserable your life can be if you were to offend him. He will never let a
disgusting person like you bully his fiancee."
Jonathan chuckled, "Well, you''re still his fiancee because he didn''t know about your past. If he finds
out about it, do you think that he''ll still want to marry you? Do you actually think that the high and
mighty Mr. Kyle will marry a woman who had a child?"
"Well, you can go ahead and try, see if he cares." Although what Jonathan said was exactly what
Vanessa was worried about, she must not show it. She must be confident so that things would go
ording to her n.
"Try? How? Instead, I''d really like a taste of you again. You''re just too unforgettable." Johnathan
licked his lips and leered at Vanessa''s chest. "Miss Vanessa, why don''t we get a room and relive
that night?"
As soon as he said this, Vanessa gave him a tight p across the face. She sneered, "Well,e
and try it. How does that feel? Do you want to try it again?"
