?Chapter 1604:
Without hesitation, the head gardener stepped forward. “No, Mr. McCoy. Jasmine is good for expectant mothers. It’s calming, which is why we filled the garden with it.”
Hamilton’s frown faded as he listened. He gestured toward the empty patches in the garden. “If these help pregnant women, then fill those empty spots as well. There. And over there.”
Reaching for his checkbook, Hamilton handed over a generous sum. “No cutting corners. I want jasmine everywhere. Make sure it’s done right.”
He stayed outside, braving the zing heat, and supervised as the gardeners worked.
Dani watched as Hamilton soon found himself in a floral jungle, surrounded by gardeners with masks covering their faces.
Arms crossed, Carol leaned in toward Dani. “Isn’t this a bit much for him? Those gardeners are wearing enough masks for a chemical spill.”
Dani simply replied, “We don’t want to rm Hamilton just yet. Those nts need to stay in the garden for a few more days. Just let him inside. If he gets poisoned and dies outside the vi, it’ll be quite the spectacle.”
Cedric couldn’t be bothered, but he knew if this ended up in the news, Dani would be dragged into it. So, he sighed, stepped aside, and called Hamilton.
Hamilton grumbled as he reached for his phone. “Who calls at this hour? Don’t they know I’m worried about my future grandson’s living environment?” But the moment Cedric’s name popped up on the screen, he couldn’t help but chuckle.<fnd9bb> ??? ????? ???????s ??? ?????s??? ?? Find[?]ovel</fnd9bb>
However, when he picked up, he tried to put on a serious tone. “What is it?”
“You cane in, but only if you agree to three conditions,” Cedric replied tly.
Hamilton instantly frowned. “Three? Isn’t that a bit much?”

He opened his mouth to protest, but before he could get a word out, Cedric had already hung up.
Hamilton stood frozen for a moment, dumbfounded. Then he muttered, “How could he be even more impatient than me?”
His secretary looked just as stunned. He scratched the back of his head awkwardly. “Maybe… bad signal? Maybe the call dropped?”
Inside the vi, Cedric flung his phone onto the couch. “Looks like he really doesn’t mind getting himself poisoned,” he muttered, heading toward the kitchen.
Dani watched him storm off, frustration written all over his face, and let out a soft sigh.
She was about to say something when the doorbell rang.
Carol opened the door and found Hamilton outside, visibly annoyed. “Cedric, what’s up with your phone? The reception is awful.”
Cedric blinked, momentarily speechless. Dani didn’t know what to say either. She didn’t want things to escte, and she definitely didn’t want Hamilton getting poisoned by those nts.
