Chapter 243

“Actually, Miranda, Ms. Flanagan ain’t looking to make a big fuss about it. Mr. Lindberg’s got a bit of a thing for Allison too. Clearly, it was Allison who shoved Ms. Flanagan, almost causing her to miscarry, but Mr. Lindberg’s still defending her.”

Penelope looked at Margo, seriously saying, “Margo, how could you say that?”

“Ms. Flanagan, I’m just stating facts”

“Miranda, you can’t let Lucian know about this. I promised him. If he finds out, he’ll scold me.”

“Alright, I won’t tell him.”

Miranda told Penelope to rest well, then she left the ward with her head in a whirl. But now that she thought about it, that maid Allison was a bit off. She was smart and beautiful. Jason liked her too, and even brought her to family dinners.

She saved Carter. Was that all to get close to her son?

When she returned to Lucian’s ward, Cora had taken Carter for a check–up. A nurse was changing the bandages on Lucian’s hand. She blushed, softly reminding him of precautions.

Miranda looked at the wound on her son’s arm, and after the nurse left, she remembered Penelope’s words. She went to the bedside, “Lucian, tell me, do you…

She wanted to ask if he liked the maid Allison, but changed her question, “Do you really like Penelope?”

Lucian’s expression tightened a bit, his handsome face didn’t show much emotion, he just asked, “Mom, why do you “Lucian, can’t I get to know you better? Do you like Penelope, or do you not want to marry her?”

“Mom, I said, I’ll be responsible for her.”

“Just responsible?” Miranda asked, “If it was another girl who saved you, would you do the same?”

“Of course.”

Penelope wasn’t special.

Miranda sighed, “What about Allison?”

“Mom, why are you suddenly bringing her up?” The man’s lips thinned, “Where did you go just now?”

ask that?”

“Lucian, if you liked Allison before, I wouldn’t object. But now Penelope is pregnant, and we’ve already arranged the marriage with the Flanagans. When Penelope’s child is born, you will get married. Plus, Allison is just a maid, not noble enough.”

If this was known, it would become a hot topic.

“Mom, I wouldn’t like a lying woman.” Lucian’s expression was complicated, “Did you hear some gossip?”

“No, don’t overthink it.”

After Miranda left, Lucian called Shawn, “Check where my mom just went, who she met.”

Five minutes later, Shawn walked in. “Mr. Lindberg, Miranda was in Ms. Flanagan’s ward the whole time.”

Lucian said, “Huh, I thought she was a patient woman”

Shawn still held a paper bag, “Sir, I checked the info about Ms. Zimmer you requested again. This time, the info has been strictly verified, these photos are real, and so is this video. None of them have been tampered with.”

“Do you think a person can lie hypocritically on one hand, and be innocent on the other?” He carefully looked at the photos, whether it was the figure or the face, and the video, they could all prove this person was Allison. But why didn’t he want to believe Allison was like that deep down.
