Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 446: She’s Pregnant



Chapter 446: She’s Pregnant

Wendy escaped.

Everyone had seen it coming.

But most of them didn’t bother looking.

“I just want Emily back.” Grandpa Gale sat on the hospital bed, looking like a wreck.

The other day, his illness kept getting worse and he was suffering from intense mood swings.

But luckily, he sobered up the next day.

That was when Emily disappeared.

What was all over the Internet couldn’t be kept from him at all.

The old man was anxious, heartbroken, and completely freaking out.

They had sent everyone they could to look for her, even Joseph and Francis.

If it weren’t for the fact that all the Gales were too busy looking for Emily, Wendy could never have escaped.

Just as Wendy had said, the most important thing in the Gale family was each other.

That was why nobody cared where Wendy was. All they wanted was to find Emily.

“Brother, Hunter has called back all his people.” Francis told Joseph the news the minute he got it.

“That bastard doesn’t care about Emily at all. But who need him? We have plenty of people. We will find her,” Joseph snorted and said indifferently,

He was wrong about Hunter!

He had thought, deep down, Hunter still cared about Emily. But it turned out his feelings for her were fleeting.

That man only cared about himself after all.

“Brother, what about the contract?”

That contract wasn’t signed by Wendy at all, but by Carl Gale, the biggest shareholder of the Gale Group.

Wendy, that slippery snake, didn’t even leave a single door open for them.

Carl was from the Gale family as well as a major shareholder. He didn’t do anything wrong.

Therefore, even if something happened to Wendy, the contract was still valid.

“Brother, we’ve been played by them. We’re screwed!”

Compensation of 30 billion was a fatal blow to the Gale Group.

They had to sell their shares to make the compensation.

But in this case, all the shareholders would panic and divest themselves of their shares.

If they did, the price of the shares would drop. And the lower the price was, the more they had to lose…

In short, it was a vicious cycle. One downfall would lead the Gale Group into an irreversible catastrophe.

“Even if I sell my company, it will only be worth two billion, which was still not enough to cover the expense.”

Although Francis did fine with his company, it was still no match for the Gale Group.

“What do we do now, brother?”

“We can’t carry on with the projects in that contract. It requires more than we can take. It will end up as a disaster for us, too.”

Therefore, the only way was to raise enough money.

“But where are we going to get the money? Selling all our real estate was still not enough. Are we going to sell our own mansion as well?”

Francis thought for a moment and shook his head, “Even if we sell the mansion, we’re still short.”

Even the billions-worth mansion was not enough to cover the expense of thirty billion.

“Don’t tell grandpa about this…”

“You guys are hiding everything from me. Good kids! Both of you.”

Not far behind them, Mr. Gale was sitting in a wheelchair, staring at them.

Joseph’s heart sank as he quickly walked over, “Grandpa, it’ll be fine. Don’t overthink.”

He was so occupied in his thoughts that he didn’t hear him coming in.

Francis also walked over and forced a smile, “Grandpa, what are you talking about? We never hide anything from you.”

Mr. Gale waved his hand. He didn’t want to hear any of this.

He suddenly said to Joseph, “I need to talk to you.”

Joseph and Francis exchanged glances. Joseph stopped Francis when he was trying to say something.

After that, Joseph pushed his grandpa to the elevator in his wheelchair.

They went to the garden. Although it wasn’t very quiet, it had the most beautiful scenery.

There were people walking around, some were patients, some were doctors and nurses, and some were visitors for the patients.

“If Emily is still here, she will definitely take me here every day to enjoy the sunlight.”

The old man looked at the distant blue sky, feeling depressed at the thought of her.

“Grandpa, don’t worry. Emily will come back. I will find her.”

Joseph wanted to comfort him, but his comfort was the last thing he need.

The old man shook his head and let out a long sigh.

“But she won’t come back. She has some issues that she can never work out.”

He had watched those two videos. Emily felt despair for the world. How could she come back?

“Isn’t that right?” The old man suddenly covered his chest in great pain.

“Grandpa, are you okay?” Joseph panicked. What he feared the most was his grandfather’s heart attack.

“Grandpa, is it your heart again? I’ll take you to the doctor.”

“No…” With his hand still on his chest, Sawyer Gale’s eyes were full of misery.

“I know Emily was desperate. What I worry the most right now is whether … whether she will even give up on herself.”

“No way!” said Joseph firmly.

Grandpa Gale looked up at him, “You … do you know where she is?”

“I don’t know. But I do know she won’t do anything stupid. Trust me.”

Grandpa Gale believed him because he knew him for years. Joseph always said what he meant.

But how could he be so sure?

“But how is she going to live like this?” It took great courage for a girl to live a life after her reputation was ruined.

“No matter what, she will definitely survive this. She will never let anything bad happen to her!”

At the very least, Joseph was certain of it.

But Sawyer Gale didn’t.

With hands on his chest, he felt harder to breathe.

“I don’t know, I’m really scared…”

“Grandpa, don’t be scared. She … she still wanna live. She won’t do anything stupid. Trust me!”

“Joseph, you are hiding something.” Sawyer Gale was wise enough to know things were a lot more complicated than it appeared.

Joseph opened his mouth but no voice came out. He didn’t know if he should tell him.

“Joseph, it hurts to know you’re keeping a secret from me.” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

There was misery all over his face again. But this time, he was faking it.

And Joseph could tell.

He knew he had to put his mind at ease eventually, even though his grandpa was acting.

He let out a sigh. There were things he could do nothing about.

“Emily … she’s pregnant.”
