Chapter 199: Chapter 199: The Child is Christopher Hart’s
Early in the morning, Amelia was awakened by a phone call.
Seeing that it was from an unknown number, she thought it was Christopher trying to harass her again, afraid she wouldn’t answer, so he switched to an unfamiliar number.
Therefore, she answered with an especially fierce tone, "What do you want? Can’t you let people sleep in the early morning?"
There was a pause on the other end, and then a woman’s voice came through, "My dear sister, who are you getting angry with so early in the morning? Could it be menopause has arrived early?"
Amelia was startled, her groggy brain suddenly clearing.
The voice sounded so familiar...
But, wasn’t that woman in detention?
"Can’t you even recognize my voice anymore?"
Amelia turned to look at her daughter, afraid of waking the little girl, so she tiptoed out of the room.
"Lily Garcia?" Although she questioned, she was already certain in her heart.
A bunch of question marks popped into her mind—how could she make a call? Was she released? How did she get out? Was she acquitted?
"It’s me, didn’t expect that, did you?"
Amelia’s expression turned serious, she truly hadn’t expected it, so she simply asked directly, "Weren’t you in detention? How can you make calls to the outside world?"
"Hmph! You’d love for me to rot in jail so you could live happily ever after with Christopher and his family of five, right?"
Lily’s tone became immediately sarcastic, filled with unreserved mockery, "Amelia Garcia, you’re really something. I thought you were finished, defeated completely, but turns out you not only faked your death but also hid away a pair of sons!"
"Everyone was fooled by you. With two sons in hand, it’s not just Christopher who couldn’t let you go, the entire Hart family would treat you like a treasure. You’re impressive, had I had your skills, I would have become the young mistress of the Hart family by now."
Amelia listened patiently until she had finished speaking, unsurprised that she already knew all of this.
"How did you get out? Illegal human organ trading carries at least five years in prison, not to mention you’ve offended Christopher..."
She knew that guy too well, ruthless to the core, let alone someone who had played him and deceived him like a green tea bitch.
With just a little hint from him, Lily was sure to be subject to the maximum penalty.
"That can’t be helped, even the heavens are helping me." Lily spoke leisurely, her speech intentionally mocking, "Guess how I got out?"
Amelia asked, "Is the leg you broke not healed? Or, did you deliberately break your leg again?"
"Do you think I’m that stupid?"
"..." In Amelia’s view, this sister with no blood relation had always been foolish.
But her mom was a shrewd and formidable character, with a mother like that as a strategist, she could avoid being killed by her own stupidity.
Seeing that Amelia couldn’t figure it out, Lily proudly announced, "I’m pregnant! So, even if I killed someone right now, I wouldn’t have to serve my sentence immediately."
Pregnant?!
Amelia was so shocked she was speechless.
Her first reaction was, whose child is it? Christopher’s?
Her second thought was, could this woman really be planning some crazy revenge now that she doesn’t have to serve her sentence because of the pregnancy?
Otherwise, why would she be making this call?
"How is it, too surprised to speak? You must be wondering who the father of the child is," Lily achieved her aim and sounded even more smug.
"I was with Christopher for over four years, men... they all have their desires, and since I was originally his fiancée, it’s not strange for us to have a relationship, right? Getting pregnant with his child now is already quite late."
Amelia didn’t speak, but her heart was indeed in turmoil.
She didn’t care about how many women Christopher had been with over the years.
After all, they were divorced. And as far as everyone was concerned, his ex-wife was dead.
Just as Lily had said, which man isn’t prone to lust?
But if at this moment, just as Christopher had found out he already had three children...
And then suddenly there was another child—
Just like Hope had thought, she too worried that this additional child might take away some of Christopher’s love for the triplets.
"However, coming early is not as good as coming at the right time, the baby is really considerate, the timing of its arrival is too perfect!"
Lily Garcia saw that there was no response from Amelia, so she intensified her boasting, her show-off attitude was extremely off-putting.
Amelia collected herself and quickly calmed down.
If this child really was Christopher Hart’s, on the other hand, it was a good thing.
She could take the opportunity to sever ties with him and leave with Hope.
After all, he had a new child, and balancing the relationship between ex-wife’s child and current child is an age-old problem.
It would save him a lot of trouble if he gave up custody of Hope.
"If that’s the case, then congratulations, the child indeed is a blessing."
Having thought it all through, Amelia quickly came to terms with it and congratulated her squarely.
"Congratulations to me?" Lily was taken aback, "Are you out of your mind? Or just pretending to be generous?"
Amelia smiled, "I never wanted to get back together with Christopher Hart; it was he who wouldn’t let go. If you are carrying his child, that’s great, then I can leave with Hope."
After saying this, she changed the subject and asked, "But, with such great news, have you told him yet?"
Lily called to "show off" because she wanted to hit Amelia hard.
But now, seeing the other party appearing to be "blessed in disguise," she was indignant again.
She didn’t believe that there were really women in this world who weren’t interested in power, wealth, and noble families.
Even though her plan had fallen through, she still wanted to boast to the end, so she snorted coldly, "Of course! He knew as soon as I found out. He definitely didn’t tell you, right? I was worried you were being kept in the dark, so I specially came to inform you."
"Hehe, thanks. When the child is born, I, as their aunt, will definitely send a generous gift."
She deliberately paused, then continued, "However, for the sake of accumulating virtue for the fetus, I’d kindly remind you not to scheme against others anymore, be careful that the karma falls on the child. If you lose this talisman, guess what Christopher Hart would do?"
Leaving this question as a warning, Amelia hung up the phone first.
Stunned for a moment, Amelia came back to her senses, blinked, exhaled a long breath, and turned back to her room.
She had to go to work today, and she thought she should still take Hope back to the Imperial Garden Villa, so she woke her still sleeping daughter.
On the way to the Imperial Garden, she took the rare initiative to call Christopher Hart.
"I’m bringing Hope back, have them wash up and get ready."
Christopher Hart asked, "Are you still planning to take them away?"
"What else?"
"I mean, why not leave the three of them here? There are people to take care of them, which is definitely better than just one nanny at your place."
"No need, Hope hasn’t accepted the two brothers yet, we’ll talk about it later."
Amelia had other plans in her mind.
Now that this guy had another child, she was certainly going to take Hope away.
Under such circumstances, it wasn’t necessary to let the two sons get too involved with him, to prevent them from developing feelings and then getting hurt by a future separation.
Christopher Hart detected the finality and a hint of estrangement in her tone and frowned.
"Come over first, let’s talk when you get here, actually, I also have something to tell you."
"What is it?" Amelia had a premonition and pressed for an answer.
"Start driving, we’ll talk when we meet."
Christopher Hart insisted, then hung up the phone.
Listening to the busy signal, Amelia’s heart started to race again.
Could it be that he was going to talk about Lily?
To explain?
To ask for her forgiveness?
Actually, there was no need; she just wanted Christopher Hart to be quick about it—give up her daughter’s custody for the best.
