Willette screamed and immediately closed her eyes. Nydia was about four or five steps away from Willette. If she rushed forward, she would undoubtedly collide with Willette and push her down.
However!
At the moment when Nydia was about to collide, she took a diagonal step and fell down directly from Willette’s side, without even touching a single hair on Willette’s head.
Willette, who was waiting for the impact, didn’t open her eyes and was stunned.
How could Nydia be okay?
“Sister, can you help me up? I can’t get up.” Nydia’s voice rang out, and Willette snapped out of her trance and looked over, only to see Nydia lying on the steps not far away, looking painful.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it. I was running too fast just now.” The person who collided with Nydia immediately went over to help.
“Are you okay? Where are you injured?”
Nydia supported herself to stand up. “It hurts. I think I need to go to the hospital.”
The woman’s expression changed and she subconsciously looked towards Willette.
Nydia noticed this and said, “I need to go to the hospital. Falling from such a high step must have caused some injuries.”
“I’m fine with my own injuries. Luckily I didn’t bump into my sister, otherwise her child would not have survived.”
Willette’s face flashed with a hint of unnaturalness, but she quickly returned to her usual color. “The situation just now was too dangerous, and I was almost scared to death.” She also went over to help Nydia. “Let’s go to the hospital first.”
The three of them went to the hospital, and the doctor took an X-ray of Nydia. Although the fall was quite severe, there were no broken bones, which was lucky.
The medical expenses were all paid by the woman.
Nydia noticed her unhappy expression and occasional glances at Willette. She didn’t know what the two of them said while waiting outside during the X-ray.
“Nydia, you’re amazing. How did you manage to avoid hitting me? And you didn’t even twist your ankle. If it was me, I would have fallen hard.”
“At that time, I just thought that I couldn’t let anything happen to my sister, maybe my body just burst out with potential.” Nydia smiled, “As long as my sister is okay, that’s all that matters.”
Willette: Damn potential!
“I’m really sorry about today. I’ll leave first.”
“Wait, why don’t we add each other on Whatsapp, just in case I have any follow-up questions…”
The woman was obviously scared and looked at Willette in panic, her eyes flickering.
Willette didn’t expect Nydia to suggest adding the woman on Whatsapp.
“I was just joking. Look at how scared you got. You can go now, be careful when walking in the future.” The woman hurriedly ran away.
Once she left, Nydia said, “If she wasn’t so polite, I would have suspected she did it on purpose.”
“Why, why would we suspect her? We have no grudges against her,” Willette avoided Nydia’s gaze.
“Jealous of our beauty.” Nydia finished and laughed.
Willette clenched her fists at Nydia’s taunting about their appearance.
Nydia, I will destroy your face sooner or later! Let’s see how arrogant you still are!
On their way back, Nydia intentionally asked Willette, “Sister, did Jasper come to bother you again?”
“Don’t bring him up!” Willette’s reaction was a bit extreme.
“What if he forces you to take a paternity test again?”
“I said don’t bring him up, can’t you understand?” Willette shouted at her.
“I’m sorry, I’m just worried about you. If you’re not happy, I won’t talk about it.”
Willette was very annoyed and could only say dryly, “My emotions are unstable during pregnancy. Don’t be angry with me.”
“No problem, sister, take a rest for a while.”
Seeing Willette closing her eyes to rest, Nydia smirked.
If her guess was correct, this whole scene was arranged by Willette. She wanted to use Nydia to get rid of the baby in her belly. First, it would be impossible to determine who the father was, and secondly, she could make Nydia feel guilty and compensate her with money.
It had to be said that this was a very good plan.
Willette almost succeeded.
Fortunately, she had been exercising her body every day during her stay in the temple for over two months, and her physical flexibility was good, so she escaped unscathed.
She had to be careful in the future and try to avoid Willette, otherwise this child would eventually be her responsibility.
“I want to go home, not to the company,” Willette said.
“Okay, then to your and Barclay’s home?”
Willette’s face stiffened.
“No, I’ll go to my mom’s house.”
Nydia accompanied Willette back to the Malone family. After the scare, she really didn’t feel well.
She chatted with Laura for a while before letting her rest.
Laura had an appointment with other wealthy missuses and left, giving Nydia the opportunity to sneak into Cade’s study again.
She had previously secretly obtained a key to the Malone family, including Cade’s study. She had been wanting to find an excuse to return to the Malone family and visit Cade’s study, so she had kept the key with her all this time.
Since her rebirth, she usually carried a large backpack with her that could hold a lot of things.
She opened the door to the study.
The general layout of the study was similar to before.
She roughly searched through the files in the drawers that could be opened, but didn’t find anything noteworthy.
However, she found it strange that there was no safe in the room.
So where did Cade keep his important things?
She tried to remember what Cade was like in her previous life and what Willette had told her. Perhaps an offhand remark could give her a clue.
As she thought, she looked around the study.
Her eyes fell on a pair of characters that read “endure silently.”
Suddenly, she had a thought and remembered what Willette had said before. Cade’s room was off-limits to others, even the maid who cleaned the room was not allowed in. The room was locked every day. One time, Willette bought a painting and wanted to replace the original one, but Cade got very angry and made Willette feel very aggrieved.
She immediately grabbed a stool and stood on it, took down the heavy frame, and was stunned to find that there was a hidden compartment inside.
It was a groove, but inside the groove was a small box-like object decorated with a fingerprint lock.
It seemed that she needed Cade’s fingerprint to open it.
Nydia hung the characters back up, restored the office to its original state, made sure that Cade couldn’t tell that someone had been there, leaned against the door and listened for a while, then quietly opened the door and left without being discovered.
She greeted the Malone family’s servant and left for the company.
“What are you guys doing? Aren’t you working?”
When she returned to the design department, she saw everyone huddled together looking at their phones.
“Nydia, you’re back! We’re watching your husband’s live stream!” Maddie replied.
“What? He still does live streams?” This wasn’t Jesse’s style, he couldn’t possibly be doing live streams.
As she got closer, she realized it was an interview with Jesse, but he had chosen to do it through a live stream.
“We’re used to seeing Mr. Pascall wear black suits, but we never thought he would look so good in a silver-gray suit. And this tie… Jessie, did you choose it?” someone said.
Their impression of Jesse was cold and serious, and he usually wore black suits and white shirts, with plain ties. How could he wear such a fancy striped tie?
Nydia smiled, “Does he look good?”
“Your man would look good even in a burlap sack!” Maddie complimented without hesitation.
At this moment, the host happened to ask, “Mr. Pascall, the public has some opinions about your wife’s dress. What do you think?”
