Chapter 874:
She felt sure of herself.
After all, there were still eight months until the baby arrived.
In that time, she would figure out how to stay with the Stevens family.
No matter what, she would be the childâs mother.
She deserved a share of the Stevens Groupâs fortune!
Colton frowned but didnât respond. Just then, his phone buzzed with a message.
It was an invitation from Fleeingland Lab.
âThe lab wants me to visit,â Colton said, pulling his arm away from hers.
It was a good excuse to leave.
âRest. Iâm going to get medicine for my mother.â
Melany tried to get up.
âShould I come with you?â
He turned her down without hesitation.
âNo need,â Colton said coldly. âThe doctor told you to rest. If you follow me, what will people think?â

Melany hesitated but then slowly lay back on the bed.
âI understand, Colton. I wonât be a problem.â
With that, Colton left the room without a second glance.
Watching him walk away, Melany clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with cold fury.
She didnât want to be angry, but her frustration was overwhelming.
Why did Allison always get everything?
She had been with Colton for so long, but in the end, she still lost to Allison!
âForget it. At least I have a child,â Melany muttered, softly stroking her stomach. âAs long as I have you, my dear, Iâll take back whatâs mine!â
Needing The Peach Candyâ¦
Colton reached the laboratory just as he was about to run into Allison.
âMr. Stevens, please follow me.â
Allison, disguised, deliberately showed up to guide him. âYou can head to the exhibition hall ahead.â
She led Colton to the first floor, where a large display of specimens was set up. It was the opening day of the exhibit.
To hide the arrival of test subjects, the parking lot was filled with expensive cars, and many people were trying to find a spot.
âI have other matters to attend to. If you need anything, donât hesitate to reach out,â Allison said as she prepared to leave.
But Colton stopped her. âExcuse me, is Mr. Shaw here? Iâd like to meet with him.â
âIâm sorry, Mr. Stevens, but Mr. Shaw isnât in the lab at the moment.â Allison shook her head, looking regretful.
