Chapter 682
After all, those people from small companies wouldn’t have the opportunity to get in touch with him.
Rosalie was surprised at first, but the more she heard it, the more he sensed something amiss.
There were so many of them. Why did these people all come to this class with their pregnant wife?
It was important to know that the pregnant women’s courses offered by the hospital had many sessions and different time periods, so it would be convenient for pregnant women to participate in the courses according to their own time. Therefore, Rosalie felt that even though the wives of rich people like Strico were pregnant and chose this hospital, it was so exaggerated that so many people were there all at once.
“Why are there so many couples though?” She was speechless.
“I think it’s no coincidence.” Jonathan did not seem surprised at this.
“No coincidence?” Rosalie was stunned for a moment, and then she widened her eyes as if something had come to her mind. “Is it… Well, are they here because of… you?”
“Yes or no, we’ll know after the class.” Jonathan smiled.
After the lecture, as expected, many people came to greet Rosalie and Jonathan when they were about to leave.
The people who greeted her were all those mentioned by Jonathan before. Rosalie couldn’t help but wonder if those people were indeed there for Jonathan.
If photographs were taken right then, those who didn’t know would think that these big shots were having a dinner party.
Who would have thought that this was the scene after the class for pregnant women?
Rosalie glanced at the bosses and the ladies who surrounded her and Jonathan. It felt like there were more than three or four tables of poker players. Including the ladies, Rosalie even reckoned they amounted to more than seven or eight tables. Rosalie could almost predict that she would meet these bosses and their wife’s group frequently in the future classes for pregnant women.
In the afternoon, when Amelia prepared the ingredients for the food cart and went into the bedroom to change clothes, she saw her mother hanging up the phone. She murmured, “How could there be such an ungrateful person? How could it be?”
Matilda couldn’t help wiping her tears as she muttered.

Amelia stepped forward and said, “Mom, what’s wrong? What happened?”
“No… Nothing.” Matilda hurriedly said, trying to hide her feelings at the moment. Amelia sighed and walked to her mother. “Mom, what happened? Is there anything you can’t talk to me about now?”
Matilda looked at her daughter and felt even more sorry for her. “I… I called the hospital where you donated your bone marrow before and told them about your situation. I asked if I could contact the person who accepted your bone marrow and whether they could donate their liver to you. But the hospital just called me and said that they had already contacted the person, and the person refused to donate their liver!”
Speaking of this, Matilda gritted her teeth again. “If I had known that the person was so heartless, you shouldn’t have saved them by donating bone marrow!”
Compared with her mother’s anger, Amelia appeared more calm. “Mom, I donated my bone marrow at that time, but it doesn’t mean the other party must donate liver to me again. At that time, I really wanted to save a life. As for whether the other party would like to save me now, they have the right to choose, and there is no need to guilt-trip them.”
“I just think… Why are you so miserable?” Matilda hugged Amelia and couldn’t help crying.
Amelia comforted her. “Mom, don’t think about these unhappy things. Let’s think more about happy things! A day will go by, whether you’re unhappy or not, and I’ve got half a year left. So, why don’t we spend the remaining half a year happily?”
Matilda nodded in sobs. “Okay… Let’s be happy… Don’t think about those people who have no conscience!”
Amelia gently wiped the tears on her mother’s face. Now, she would no longer blame her fate. She only regretted that she could not accompany her mother and Aiden for longer.
At this moment, in the private room of a club, Irene glared at the good-looking
man.
This man was her former boyfriend, but after she got together with Warren later, she broke up with him.
“Didn’t you agree not to contact me after the breakup? Why are you looking for me again?” Irene asked exasperatedly.
“I didn’t plan to contact you at all, but recently, an interesting phone call came. I think you should be interested in it.” Brayden said with a hippie smile.
“A phone call?” Irene wondered.
“An old lady called in, saying that her daughter had liver cancer and needed a liver transplant to survive. She also said that her daughter once donated bone marrow and wanted to contact the person who received a bone marrow transplant through the hospital to ask if he was willing to donate it,” Brayden said.

The more Irene listened, the more she frowned. Her face changed when she heard it.
“Could it be that… Amelia had liver cancer and wanted to contact Warren? No way! If that’s the case, Warren would know that it was actually Amelia who really donated bone marrow to him!” Irene mused.
Irene’s body trembled when she thought about what could happen to her.
“Do you think I should contact the man who received a bone marrow transplant for that old lady?” Brayden asked sarcastically.
“What’s your condition?” Irene gritted her teeth and asked, knowing that the man must have a purpose since he found her today.
“I heard that you’re going to be the young lady of the York family, Ms. Fletcher. I happen to have a tight hand recently, Ms. Fletcher, so you mustn’t be stingy,” Brayden said.
He was trying to blackmail her. Irene hated him secretly, but now she had no choice but to answer his request. “2 million dollars! Don’t come to me again!”
“2 million dollars? Is the position of the young lady of the York family only worth 2 million dollars?” There was a greedy look in his eyes. “I want 10 million dollars. I won’t show up in front of you again.”
“10 million dollars?” Irene said angrily, “Where do you want me to get 10 million dollars at once?”
“I don’t care. I want 10 million dollars in a month, or you won’t have your wedding, Ms. Fletcher!” Brayden threatened.
Irene was silent for a while before she said, “I’ll give you 10 million dollars. Don’t show up in front of me again, or I’ll reveal everything. Then, I can sue you for blackmail. You have to stay in prison for the rest of your life!”
