âHow could you?!â
Jake glared at her and responded angrily, âEnough! The most important thing now is to convince Liam that we have nothing to do with his parentsâ
accident. We can talk about other things later on!â
Melanie sneered. âIs Liam willing to listen to you? He almost killed me. Iâll never let this go!â
âDo you really want to ruin this family?â
As he questioned her, Melanie met his gaze in a calm and cold manner. âYou should ask Liam that. If it werenât for him, our lives wouldnât be a mess now!â
Jake gritted his teeth with rage. He raised his hand to slap her, but to his surprise, she showed no fear. Instead, she stared him right in the eye.
âGo ahead and hit me! If you do, Iâll expose what you did to Beatrice to the media. Itâs up to you. Do you still want to keep your reputation?â
Jakeâs hand froze in mid-air, and he ended up not hitting her.
âYouâll be in trouble if I hear any rumors about it!â
After that, he left in a huff. The moment he opened the door, he saw Ada. He was immediately displeased.
âHow much did you hear?â
His gaze made her shudder. She quickly took a step back and shook her head with a pale face. âI just arrived. I didnât hear anything.â
Jake did not pressure her any further when he noticed that she seemed to be telling the truth. He left soon after.
Ada patted her chest out of fear. She took a deep breath before she walked into the hospital ward.
Melanie was a little surprised to see Ada. âWhy are you here?â she asked indifferently.
Ever since Ada became pregnant with Liamâs child, Melanie had distanced herself from her.
After all, Liam stood against Neil. Despite how much Ada liked Neil before, she would definitely pick Liamâs side after having his child.
Ada smiled and sat by the hospital bed.
âI heard that you woke up, so I came over to visit you. How are you?â
Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce âIâm good. Ada, since youâre engaged to Liam and pregnant with his child, you donât have to visit me in the future. You should stay at home and take care of yourself.â
Ada knew that Melanie was trying to keep a distance from her. However, she wanted to escape Liamâs control and get back together with Neil.
Therefore, she needed to get Melanie on her side.
âI came here because I have something to tell you.â
âWhat is it?â
âI donât plan on keeping this child.â
Melanie was taken aback. She frowned and asked, âWhy?â
Ada sighed, and her eyes turned red.
âYou donât know this, but Liam doesnât like me at all. After he became the president of Remus Corporation, he locked me up in the mansion. Iâve been trying to send information to Neil. I still wish for him to be reinstated as Remus Corporationâs president.â
Ada meant everything she said, but Melanie did not believe her. Instead, she looked at Ada with a guarded look on her face.
âDid Liam ask you to get information from me?â
Ada did not rush to defend herself. âI know that you donât believe me now. But soon, youâll know that Iâm not lying to you,â she whispered.
After that, she stood up and looked at Melanie. âLiam has assigned someone to keep an eye on me. I canât leave the mansion for too long. Iâll visit you again if I get the chance.â
She wiped her tears once she exited the ward. She was just about to leave, when she saw a familiar figure on the other end of the corridor. This person was walking briskly toward another ward.
Why would Dulcie be here?
Out of curiosity, Ada secretly followed her.
