Chapter 362: Am I Supposed to Be Afraid of Him?
Faye Turner dragged her disheveled body, took the phone handed to her, and turned to step outside.
Her ears seemed to lose sound... Everything today felt like a dream, a nightmare she’d never imagined.
Eliza Hayes’ last warning came—
"If you don’t leave, bear the consequences yourself!"
Faye’s footsteps paused slightly, she turned her back to her, and tears of sadness flowed, then she lifted her feet and continued forward.
All her efforts were in vain, what she thought was improving was actually not getting better at all, but rather worse.
Watching the girl’s frail back, Nanny Warren felt very sad, she recalled secretly following in that day, seeing the lady furtively buying abortion pills... She broke out in a cold sweat.
If it hadn’t been for buying fertility medication that day myself... and repeatedly confirming with the doctor, swapping them wouldn’t have changed the smell drastically.
The consequences would have been truly unimaginable.
On the way home in the cab, Faye sat inside the car, like a puppet whose thoughts had been drained away, recalling the ordeal she just went through, her heart trembled.
Such a terrifying scene, she had never thought it would happen to her.
The car headed towards Adrian Lancaster’s villa, she held the phone but dared not call Adrian Lancaster, still unsettled, holding the bank card given by Eliza Hayes.
After drinking that bowl of traditional medicine, her abdomen hadn’t reacted at all... As an herbal physician, she believed in Nanny Warren’s words, and took a gamble.
If it were really an abortion pill, the bleeding would have started by now, and her abdomen would certainly be twisting in pain.
In the ancient and mysterious old house, her grandfather hadn’t returned yet, unaware of everything that had just happened.
Eliza Hayes had people clean up the scene, including the entire house, and the scent of the traditional medicine was gone.
She always had a suspicion, her gaze lingered on Nanny Warren for a long time, "What did you say to her just now before feeding the medicine?"
Nanny Warren was slightly startled, didn’t look at her, and answered calmly, "I just told her to accept her fate."
Eliza Hayes’ eyes cooled slightly, scrutinizing Nanny Warren, she didn’t really believe it.
"Madam." She raised her eyes, "Are you ready to confront your son directly?"
Eliza Hayes suddenly raised her voice, "Do I fear him?!"
Faye Turner, the stubborn girl, how could she possibly accept fate just because she was told to?
With her not-accepting fate demeanor, wanting to be involved in everything, Eliza Hayes truly hated her! Regardless of the outcome, today served as a lesson to her.
Nanny Warren turned to tidy up the blankets on the sofa, she felt helpless, not wanting to say more.
Her heart was taken away by Faye, hoping this girl would be safe.
After taking a cab home, Faye locked herself in the master bedroom upstairs, frightened, sitting in the single sofa by the window, completely lost.
Until the phone rang, and she was startled again!
Staring at the familiar name on the screen, her nose tingled, a huge sense of grievance enveloped her.
Her vision blurred, lacking the courage to answer...
It was Adrian Lancaster calling her, originally planning to invite her to lunch.
But there was no answer for a long time.
At this moment, inside the presidential office, Adrian Lancaster couldn’t help but wonder, why wasn’t she answering the phone?
He took the elevator downstairs, arriving at the 11th floor design department office, the familiar presence was absent from the workstation.
"President Lancaster."
"Hello, President Lancaster."
"Where’s my wife?" Adrian Lancaster casually asked someone.
"I don’t know."
"Didn’t notice..."
Until Serena Sutton approached him, "Are you looking for Faye Turner?"
"Yes."
"She went home, seems she mentioned delivering some herbal medicine, but she said she’d be back soon." Serena Sutton checked the time on her phone, "Been gone for a while, she should be back soon, right?"
Upon hearing the information about delivering medicine, Adrian Lancaster’s heart sunk heavily, she went back to the old house alone??
