?Chapter 398:


    “What did Susanna say?”


    Sean checked his phone, only to find that he hadn’t received any messages the entire morning.


    “She said that Kathy is pregnant, which is why the Andrews family agreed to the marriage.”


    Sean sneered. “So, it’s because of a child.”


    He had always wondered why the Andrews family would let someone like Kathy marry into their family so easily. But with a child in the picture, everything made sense. The more prominent the n, the less likely it was that they would allow an offspring to live outside their ranks.


    “Susanna also mentioned that she saw Madeline going to Silver Boulder Private Hospital. Apparently, Madeline went to the gynecology department.”


    Sean thought back to the invitation he had found.


    “Birds of a feather really do flock together. Is the Andrews family all pushovers in their eyes?”


    The Carter family posed no threat, however, the same could not be said for the Andrews family. They were not to be underestimated.


    A glint of cunning shed in Sean’s eyes. Kathy might not realize it yet, but the future that awaited her would not be asfortable as she imagined.

    “Find out which hospital Kathy went to for her prenatal checkups,” he instructed.


    “Understood.”


    Norah, who had just ended her call with Susanna, had the same thoughts. Since Madeline and Kathy were both pregnant, each hospital visit would leave a paper trail. What was more, their records would have to be filed under their real names. There was very little chance to tamper with the data.


    She had her suspicions about Kathy’s pregnancy; the timing was off. But she also knew that her spections would amount to nothing without tangible proof. They couldn’t do anything about the surveince footage from the hotel, but the ones from the hospital were a different matter.


    If Kathy really had visited the hospital for an examination, they would just have to follow the clues, and they were bound to find something.


    “Oh, Dr. Wilson! You seem to have a lot of time on your hands today. How odd. Aren’t you up for surgery?” Although Jolie was smiling, her tone was nothing short of interrogatory. She had pounced on Norah as soon as she entered the office, causing everyone else to turn in Norah’s direction.


    “If it’s free time we’re talking about, I don’t think anyone here enjoys as much leisure as you, Dr. Austin. Wouldn’t you agree?” Norah countered without missing a beat as she walked past Jolie. She couldn’t be bothered with thetter’s sarcastic remarks.


    “It is indeed rare to have fewer surgeries scheduled. But you’re just lounging around, Dr. Austin. Do you have nothing at all to do?”


    Her rebuttal earned a few snickers from their colleagues. Jolie wasn’t qualified enough to handle a serious assignment around the hospital. She was only ever given trivial tasks, so, of course, she was always free.


    She flushed with embarrassment and stormed out of the room, but not before shooting Norah a re. The tables had been turned on her so quickly, and she deserved every bit of the humiliation.


    Norah’s expression turned icy. It seemed Jolie just couldn’t seem to break free from her habit of speaking ill of others. Norah decided to teach her a lesson sooner orter. She just had to wait for the perfect time.


    Since Susanna had told her that Madeline was having her checkups at this hospital, Norah wasted no time logging into the hospital’s system. She essed the records under the Gynecology Department and located Madeline’s file.


    On the very same date Madeline had herst examination, another name was logged into the system — Kathy Carter.


    But Kathy was supposed to still be in Ond around that time. Technically, she wouldn’t have slept with Bryson yet. Yet she had allegedly had an ultrasound on this day, as prescribed by her gynecologist. Norah couldn’t obtain the ultrasound report itself, but she was able to gain ess to a more detailed report of Kathy’s checkup.


    The more she read through the file, the colder her expression became.


    It revealed that Kathy had been pregnant for a while. She was simply pushing the responsibility onto Bryson. Norah had tomend her for being bold. Who knew Kathy would dare to scheme against one of Glophia’s most powerful families? Wasn’t she afraid of the consequences she would eventually suffer in the Andrews family’s hands once they learned of her deceit?


    Norah saved a copy of all the evidence and cleared her tracks. She also fixed a couple of loopholes in the system, leaving no traces of her investigation. Then she logged out.
