Leo Keane listened from the sidelines, raising an eyebrow.
When they were talking about the blood types of these two at the hospital that day, Candace Ford was also present...
So even if she overheard, it wouldn’t be surprising.
If things were truly as Leon Grant said, then...
Leo Keane looked in astonishnt at Candace Ford, who was crying desperately, and suddenly rembered the look of spiteful jealousy on her face when Raine Sinclair was brought back from the brink before. A chill rose in his heart!
If all this was Candace Ford’s deliberate doing, then this woman was too terrifying, wasn’t she?!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt there was sothing strange about it, and Leo Keane didn’t even dare to stand too close to Candace Ford.
He quietly stepped back a step.
Such a terrifying woman, who knows what she might be capable of doing soday, and whether she’d also take down with her?
Looking again at Jonas Hawthorne, Leo Keane really wanted to imdiately warn his good friend!
Better than choosing carefully and even giving up on the first wife, only to find out you’ve chosen a scorpion-like woman!
But when Leo Keane glanced over, Jonas Hawthorne was intently staring at the door of Raine Sinclair’s tightly closed hospital room.
He reacted almost instantly, and Leo Keane sighed inwardly again.
anwhile, Leon Grant seed to have known Candace Ford’s intentions all along. Instead of confronting her, he turned to the long-silent Jonas Hawthorne and mocked coldly, "Even an outsider like can see things clearly, and to think Mr. Hawthorne doesn’t understand it? Fine then, do what you will, but Raine Sinclair is carrying my child now. Anyone dares to make a move on her, don’t bla the Grant Family for not holding back!"
With a dominant declaration of sovereignty, Leon Grant already cared for Raine Sinclair as if she were his own woman.
Jonas Hawthorne’s heart suddenly wrenched with pain.
A child...
The child in Raine Sinclair’s womb, is it really Leon Grant’s?
At this mont, he had no mind to think about Candace Ford’s intentions. All his thoughts revolved around Raine Sinclair, who occupied his entire heart...
Candace Ford did not pay attention to Jonas Hawthorne; she retorted instinctively upon hearing Leon Grant, "Then when do you plan to hold the wedding?"
She now had a new idea.
It’s fine if Raine Sinclair didn’t die, as long as she gets married quickly, it would cut off Jonas Hawthorne’s hopes!
Not to ntion that Raine Sinclair is pregnant with another man’s child, this is simply heaven’s help!
Leon Grant heard this, and the angle of his lips beca more sarcastic, "Naturally not as soon as yours. The third of next month—Mr. Hawthorne really can’t wait, huh!"
The news that the CEO of the Hawthorne Group was about to have a second marriage had dominated the top spot on trending searches all day.
Such a high-profile announcent of the wedding date, fearing others wouldn’t know...
The more ostentatiously they acted, the more people eagerly watched Raine Sinclair’s misfortune in secret.
Especially...
Leon Grant gave Jonas Hawthorne a glance and sneered, "Mr. Hawthorne is really thoughtful, personally notified Raine of your wedding date just a minute before the bidding session began... afraid she would too successfully host the bidding today, huh?"
A single sentence completely dragged Jonas Hawthorne’s thoughts back to reality.
"When did I notify her?" His perfectly arched brows were raised, and his dark eyes already held a trace of displeasure.
Even he only knew from Finn Wyatt’s rambling at his side, so how could he have specially notified Raine Sinclair?
Leon Grant continued to sneer, "Hmph, if Mr. Hawthorne didn’t say it, then naturally soone else did."
As he said this, his gaze fell on Candace Ford.
Candace Ford lowered her eyes a bit guiltily, barely saying anything before hearing Jonas Hawthorne’s questioning, "You told Raine Sinclair?"
"I..." Candace Ford opened her mouth, unable to think of a better explanation for the mont.
This information was indeed spread by her, and Jonas Hawthorne knew it. No matter what she said now, it all seed pale and powerless.
"I just wanted to invite Raine to join us, Jonas, I..."
"Go back and rest." Jonas Hawthorne didn’t want to hear her say more, coldly interrupting her.
After being in contact for this period, Jonas Hawthorne increasingly didn’t want any entanglent with Candace Ford.
Were it not for the child in her womb...
"I..." Candace Ford opened her mouth in grievance, clearly not wanting to leave.
She still wanted to know more about Raine Sinclair, so she could sow discord.
But unfortunately, Jonas Hawthorne’s attitude was firm, "Go back!"
Only then did Candace Ford bite her lower lip, turning back to her own room.
After she left, Leo Keane finally let out a breath of relief.
He didn’t know why, but ever since he discovered sothing was off about Candace Ford, he beca unconsciously tense at any place she was present, even feeling almost suffocated?
It wasn’t that kind of oppression, rather as if so dark force was present.
When that force vanished, Leo Keane returned to his forr talkative self.
"Mr. Grant, today’s incident was truly unexpected. We didn’t want Mrs. Hawthorne to be in danger." He first apologized, then asked, "Um... the child’s Mrs. Hawthorne is carrying, is it really yours?"
Not only Jonas Hawthorne but even Leo Keane found it hard to believe.
Raine Sinclair had pursued Jonas Hawthorne so passionately, thoroughly in love with him!
How could she be pregnant with soone else’s child just a month after their divorce?
Even when he first heard the news, he suspected that the child might be Jonas Hawthorne’s?
But Leon Grant adamantly claid the child was his, this...
Leo Keane’s puzzlent had just been voiced when Jonas Hawthorne looked up at Leon Grant.
Leon Grant responded with a cold laugh, retorting, "What? You don’t believe it? Calculate the ti Raine has been pregnant, and you’ll know."
He sounded so certain, as if it were true.
Leo Keane was a bit dumbfounded, "Then... why haven’t you brought it up before?"
"Raine is always low-key. Unlike Mr. Hawthorne, who can’t wait to announce to the world that he’s about to remarry?" Leon Grant defended Raine Sinclair, each word carrying a sting, piercing Jonas Hawthorne’s heart.
"The news has been taken down." Jonas Hawthorne replied, without explaining the news wasn’t released by him.
At this point, any explanation seed too pale and powerless.
Skipping these topics, Jonas Hawthorne asked, "Is she... okay?"
The tone showed so hesitation.
He wanted to know, but asked with caution...
Beside him, Leo Keane couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow at hearing this.
He sensed Jonas Hawthorne seed slightly different from before?
But exactly where was different, he couldn’t say for a mont.
Leon Grant, however, continued his usual sarcastic tone, "You saw the rescue earlier, Mr. Hawthorne. She was at death’s door; can she possibly be okay?"
Hearing this, Jonas Hawthorne’s chest suddenly tightened with pain!
Nearly suffocating.
