Chapter 318 It''s Hard to Bring It Up.


    He opened the drawer, took out a few shopping bags, and handed them to Ang after he pricked the


    needle into her leg.


    "What are these?" Ang asked.


    Rnd gestured to let her open them.


    Ang unpacked the bags and saw a few baby clothes along with some toys for children.


    "My aunt and my mom prepared these. They urged me again and again to hand these to you." Rnd


    put his hands into the pockets of his white gown, looking at her with a smile.


    Ang became moreplex in her mind. Auntie Susan and Eleanor indeed cared about her, but how


    to bring the matter upter? She''s not sure whether they would me this on her for it.


    While she was contemting this irrelevant mess, James grabbed the gifts from her hands. "Thank


    you, doctor, but I have already prepared all these."


    "It doesn''t matter if several more are added," Rnd replied without turning to him. "If Miss Chante


    insists on turning it down you can return these to my aunt and my mom by yourself, or I will drown in


    their nagging."


    Ang chuckled and said, "These clothes look pretty. Please tell Auntie Susan and Eleanor that I love


    their gifts."


    "You are wee. If you truly want to thank them,e to our home when you are free, as my aunt


    mentioned you often." Rnd said.


    During the talk, Ang longed to bring up the matter about Eleanor several times, but she faltered


    irresolutely as she didn''t know how to start it.


    From the moment she decided to go to work, she anticipated her fake pregnancy would be seen


    through by Jessica. She had a countern for herself, but not one for Eleanor.


    James stood aside, watching the two chatting lively, feeling himself an outsider. He put the shopping


    bags on the bed and said out of blue, "Oh, Ie up with something suddenly, concerning Rnd."


    "Concerning me?" Rnd asked.


    James raised his eyebrow slightly and continued, "Exactly, it''s not concerning you. What I want to say


    is that my grandpa knew Eleanor had cheated in the pregnancy test."


    "!" Rnd''s smile dispersed. "I have something to do, so excuse me. I will ask someone else to pull out


    the needleter."


    Ang was about to say something when Rnd walked out.


    "Guilty?" James looked down to her.


    Having been seen through by him too many times, Ang nodded after a trace of surprise: "I got


    Eleanor into trouble."


    "Why do you think she lent a hand to you?" James noticed a strand of hair had fallen over her


    forehead, and he tucked the lock behind her ear naturally.


    Ang looked up to him.


    "Eleanor would never take the huge risks to help you only for Auntie Susan''s fondness for you." James


    continued after a pause, "I promised something to her."


    With that, Ang looked down with her fists clenching shortly. "Oh."


    That would be fine. She needn''t feel owing someone a favor in that case.


    But she still felt ufortable somehow. Maybe it''s the reason why people were not willing to grow up:


    everything became businesslike to a horrible extent.

    There''s nothing right or wrong, but only people''s respective considerations.


    Lawson had seldom acted at will since his forties. He always thought it through and weighed up all the


    pros and cons before he decided to do it or not.


    But having been fooled by several youngsters this time, Lawson couldn''t just swallow it. Soon after


    James left along with Ang, he, followed by a few assistants, set off to the Smith Group.


    "Mr. Harvey?" The receptionist conveyed both excitement and fear upon her first sight of the illustrious


    tycoon.


    Lawson ignored her and turned to Nathen, "Where''s Jessica?"


    "On the twenty-sixth floor, the chief financial officer''s office," Nathen answered.


    Lawson went to the elevator after a nod. Nathen followed by his side and pressed the button to go


    upstairs.


    On seeing that, the receptionist suggested hurriedly, "Mr. Lawson, the elevator runs slow. Would you


    please wait here for a moment when I call Miss Smith to ask her down?"


    Lawson frowned, "A bber."


    Even a small potato dared to swagger about in front of him.


    Nathen eyed two bodyguards suggestively, with thetter carried the receptionist in between and threw


    her aside.


    With such a loud noise, many staff members looked over surreptitiously, but nobody dared toe up


    to speak out for the receptionist, let alone intercept Lawson.


    As the elevator came, Lawson entered first, followed by Nathen and several others. They pressed the


    doors closed regardless of some people else waiting outside.


    Those waiting for the elevator didn''t mean to go in actually, for they had no guts to be with Lawson in


    the same space.


    Not before long, the elevator got to the twenty-sixth floor, Lawson went straight to the chief financial


    officer''s office with a crutch in his hand. Instead of knocking on the door, he struck it hard directly with


    the crutch to pop it open.


    Jessica was then talking with a staff member about the overheads for the quarter, and upon hearing the


    sound, she blinked unconsciously.


    Seeing Lawson, a hint of joy flickered across her eyes. She asked with a smile, "Why don''t you notice


    me your visit in advance, Grandpa Harvey?"


    Before she could finish, Lawson interrupted her with an expressionless face. "p her!"


    Jessica got stunned. She was about to ask what had happened when she got pped to the ground by


    Nathen before she could speak.


    That was a hard hit. Her face turned aside under the strike, with blood streaming from the corner of her


    mouth, her face burning at the same time.


    The employee stood between the two, dumbstruck with a frightening pale face, his fingers trembling


    uncontrobly along with his lips.


    "Once again. It doesn''t look pretty without symmetry!" Lawson ordered coldly before sitting on the sofa


    with the support of his crutch.


    Jessica gestured to stop Nathen. She said, "Grandpa Harvey, could you please ...."


    "Were you listening?" Lawson thought highly of her, but once she dared to fool him there''s no way he


    would spare her.


    With a simple "yes", Nathen went up to give her a p on the other side of her face.


    Jessica staggered and barely managed to keep bnce with her ears ringing.


    What happened?


    She told Lawson about Ang''s fake pregnancy, but no matter how furious he got, it''s impossible to


    me it on her. What went wrong on earth?


    Thump!


    The employee flopped to the ground for his feet turned to jelly.


    "Grandpa Harvey, we can take our time to talk it over, but before that could you please let him leave


    first?" Jessica pointed to the employee and said with a bitter smile, "He was hired earlier this year, still


    wet behind his ears. I''m afraid this is too much for him."


    Lawson sniffed, "Is it shameful for you to get beaten in front of your staff?"


    "I just don''t want people to consider Grandpa Harvey violent," Jessica answered with sincerity.


    Smash!


    Lawson flung a cup straight to the ground, and the cup shattered with a splinter of porcin flew to the


    feet of Jessica.
