Chapter 437


    If I''m right, that is where pregnant women go for check-ups. Could it be that...


    If I''m right, that is where pregnant women go for check-ups. Could it be that...


    A thought popped up in Lionel''s mind, making him extra careful about jumping to conclusions.


    Are we having a child?


    “You''re right, Mr. Gezmond. Ms. Saunders is pregnant. We managed to track her down because she


    went to the hospital for a checkup.”


    Lionel turned to leave via the garden exit, but he stopped when he recalled that Wendy was still behind


    him.


    “Send someone to watch her twenty-four-seven. Don''t lose her again. I''ll be in Belmonia Ind in two


    days. Don''t leave her out of your sight until I reach.”


    “Don''t worry, Mr. Gezmond. I will keep watch.”


    When Wendy saw the unconceble happiness on Lionel''s face even after he hung up, she asked,


    “Did something good happen?”


    Lionel did not hide the truth from Wendy since she had alreadye to terms with her own feelings


    and acknowledged that Holden was the man she loved, so she would not do anything irrational out of


    jealousy.


    “Victoria is in Belmonia Ind. She''s pregnant.”


    Wendy was momentarily stunned, but she quickly snapped out of it and said, “Then what are you


    waiting for? Go to Belmonia Ind to find her. She is in her most helpless moment now. If you go to her


    now, she will slowlye to depend on you.”


    Lionel would like to fly over immediately too, but he hesitated because Sebastian was still in danger.


    “I''m not in a rush. We can wait until Sebastian is out of the woods.”


    Wendy smiled and stood up to push Lionel out of the garden. “There''s nothing you can do by staying


    here anyway. Only Holden can solve this problem. It will be hopeless if even someone like Holden can''t


    save Sebastian.”


    “But—”


    “No buts. Just go to Victoria. Also, ask her to call me if she doesn''t believe what you say. I''ll exin


    everything to her.”


    Despite Wendy''s persuasion, Lionel still felt concerned. “Okay. If you want me to go to Belmonia Ind,


    then you''ll have to stay at Holden''s. I can''t just leave you here alone at the Gezmond residence.”


    Wendy''s first reaction was to disagree, but Lionel did not even give her a chance to do that. “If you


    don''t, I''ll stay here until Holden saves Sebastian.”


    Wendy red at the man, knowing full well what his intention was.


    Lionel still had hopes that things would work out between Holden and Wendy, so he was trying to


    create an opportunity for them to spend time together.


    However, after going through all the heartbreak and betrayal, Wendy was no longer sure if she could


    still love the man the way she used to.


    She could tolerate his desertion, but she would never be able toe to terms with the fact that


    Holden approached her with an ulterior motive.


    That was why she was devastated when she learned that the bodyguard she had fallen for was


    Tarragon''s vice president, Holden Lewitt.


    She would feel a suffocating pain in her heart whenever she thought that Holden had gotten close to


    her just to gather intelligence to control Zaewora.


    “He lost his memory, Wends, so he might have lied to you. You should do some digging yourself to find


    out the truth about his departure.”


    Wendy pursed her lips, clenching her jaw. “He stole intelligence from me and caused the Hoffman


    family to lose control over Zaewora—that is reality, Nell. You don''t have to find excuses for him. I know


    in my bones what he did to me.”


    Lionel shook his head. “Fine. Then don''t ask me to go to Belmonia Ind, either. I don''t think I can


    leave you here with you in such a state. I''m afraid you''d go to the resort and end up getting bullied by


    those old geezers.”


    “No. I will go to Holden. As you said, there are things I need to find out, so call him, Nell. Ask him if I


    can go over to stay at his mansion,” Wendy said with resolution in her eyes.


    Lionel smiled and patted the back of her head. “That''s more like it. Now you''re looking like the same


    strong and determined woman you used to be in the past. I''ll call him now.”

    That night at Century Hotel in Hallsbay, Cosmetico''s owner booked the entire third floor to hold a


    banquet for all the tycoons in the business and political spheres.


    Since Bailey was curious about the mysterious woman, she followed Artemis to the banquet, but the


    children, bored as they were at home, insisted on following as well.


    So, Artemis held the two boys in each hand and shoved them in the car at the back before carrying his


    daughter to the one in front, holding Bailey''s hand.


    “Ratemis, how could you treat your sons like that? Don''t ever expect us to take over your business for


    you in the future since you like your daughter that much. Just have her do it instead,” Zayron


    “Daddy, who are Zayron and Maxton to you?” she asked.


    Artemis pinched her cheek, answering casually, “They''re nothing to me.”


    At the sight, Bailey could not imagine what would happen if she were to have another daughter


    because by then, not only would the two boys be neglected, even she herself might not get much


    attention from Artemis.


    Bailey''s thought did not go unnoticed by Artemis, so he put Susan down in the front seat and fastened


    the seatbelt around her before sitting down beside Bailey and whispering in her ear, “You''re different. I''ll


    give you all my love. I will satisfy you and make you feel like you''re on cloud nine every day.”
