    Chapter 1466 The Silence


    “What does that even mean? And you think this five million is enough to brush me off?” scoffed L


    condescendingly.


    To that, Brandon’s assistant chuckled and decided that there was no point in ying nice with L any


    longer.


    “How much exactly do you want then? That man has already done so much for you for so many years,


    and you’re still not content? You look perfectly fine to me, so I don’t see why you need handouts.


    Besides, he has a kid to raise now. How much more are you nning to take from him?”


    “A kid? What kid?” The Emmanuels were stunned by the sudden piece of information.


    “What are you talking about? Whose kid is that?” questioned Matilda.


    “You don’t know? It’s Ms. Fischer’s. That kid was no test-tube baby. She only told Brandon that


    because she had no other choice. You probably had no idea that she had severe depression because


    of your family’s constant abuse. In the end, she decided to take her own life,” sneered the assistant as


    if he was talking to a bunch of hideous and revolting creatures.


    Unsure of how to respond to that, the Emmanuels fell dead silent.


    Each and every one of them was instantly drained of colors when the guilt set in.


    Willow is dead because of severe depression? Does that mean Brandon will nevere back? That


    man probably thinks this five million is already more than what we deserve.


    When the Emmanuels finally realized how serious the matter was, they all panicked. “That’s not what


    happened. Please, you have to get him toe back. We’ll exin everything.”


    “No. He’s never going toe back.” With that, the assistant turned around indifferently and left the


    family to their own thoughts.


    Suddenly, they heard a loud bang from behind and realized that Matilda had fallen off her wheelchair.


    A week after that, news of Matilda’s death spread to Jadeborough.


    “Your aunt just passed away. Will you be going to her funeral?” asked Sasha after making her way


    downstairs to Sebastian.


    “What aunt?” responded the man coldly with a rhetorical question as he continued working on his


    computer.


    Sasha said nothing else after that, for she knew that none of the Hayeses wanted anything to do with


    Matilda anymore.


    Even though Brandon convinced two of the most powerful Emmanuels to visit Matilda during festive


    seasons, not even a single member of the family attended the olddy’s funeral. In the end, the


    ceremony was rather pathetic.


    Meanwhile, at Hillside Vi, Ichika wondered if she should attend the funeral since her husband was in


    charge of running Hayes Corporation at the moment.


    However, Solomon could not care less.

    After finishing his work at the office, Solomon could not stop thinking about how Ichika cried every night


    since Brandon took the child away in these ten days ago.


    “What’s troubling you, Mr. George?” inquired Luke.


    After a moment of thought, Solomon looked intently at the assistant from behind his desk and asked,


    “After you got married, how long did it take before you had a child?”


    “What?” Luke was dumbfounded by the man’s odd question. Why is Mr. George asking me that?


    Although he was surprised, Luke quickly figured out Solomon’s intention since he was also a man, so


    he decided to be forting with his superior. “My wife got pregnant two months into our marriage.”


    “Two months?” Solomon was slightly shocked because it had been six months since he started


    sleeping with Ichika. Only two months? Then why isn’t Ichika pregnant yet? If only we could have a


    baby. Then she wouldn’t be this sad.


    “Yeah. We wanted to have children right after we got married, so there was no birth control. And before


    we knew it, she got pregnant.” Since Luke only became a father not long ago, he blushed a little on the


    topic.


    Solomon never had much to talk about with his assistant, but after hearing what the man said, he


    quickly followed up with another question. “Do you… Is there a trick to this? Because we’ve tried but


    nothing happened.”


    “Really? I thought she never got pregnant because you two didn’t want children yet,” stated Luke with


    his eyes widened in surprise.


    Slightly embarrassed, Solomon cleared his throat before responding to his assistant. “Actually, we do.”


    “Maybe it’s because of her ovtion.”


    “Ovtion?”


    “Yeah. You know. My wife wanted to get pregnant as soon as possible, so she took her temperature in


    the morning. She also did the same in the evening. And she even tracked her periods so that we know


    when to… to do the deed.” Even though it was just the two of them, Luke still could not help but feel


    awkward as he talked about sex and pregnancy with his superior.


    After that, Solomon decided to follow Luke’s suggestion, so he had the assistant get him everything his


    wife would need to get impregnated. It has to work now!
