Chapter 1449 Wasting Our Time

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

Michael hung up the phone without hesitation. After all, he said that on purpose. Since Wayne was suspicious of everyone, he would definitely think about what Micheal had said.
In fact, Wayne would be anxious, and he probably would even want to know why Michael had said these words. However, he wouldn’t tell Wayne anything now.
He just wanted to keep Wayne hanging so that the latter would be anxious, but he didn’t know that Wayne couldn’t sleep at night because of this.
In a few days, he would go back and expose Azalea’s identity. He believed that Michael and Meadow would definitely be shocked when that happened.
At that time, Wayne and Meadow would definitely regret what they did, right?
On the other hand, Wayne was indeed anxious after hearing what Michael had said. After all, Michael’s words were quite subtle, so was he trying to hint at something?
Wayne immediately called Michael again at this thought, but he couldn’t get through. It was evident that the latter had blocked his number.
Wayne was unhappy right now. He frowned and thought for a while. He always felt that Michael was trying to tell them something. After all, he was sure that Azalea could never inherit the Floyd family’s assets.
However, Azalea was a child of the Floyd family, so how could they not allow her to inherit the family’s property? This wasn’t normal at all! Was Michael trying to trick them by saying something like this on purpose?
However, when Wayne thought about how the Davis family had treated Azalea when the latter had returned, he felt that Michael’s words were baseless rumours at all.
After all, the Floyd family didn’t seem to care about Azalea at all.
Before, Azalea had been saying that the Floyd family had deliberately been so cold to keep her safe, but Michael always felt that there was something behind it.
Well, Michael had such a good relationship with William. Did William perhaps tell him something about Azalea?
So why was the Floyd family so indifferent to Azalea? Previously, he had suspected that Azalea was not a child of the Floyd family. Now, this thought popped into his mind again.
At this thought, Wayne looked at Meadow sternly and asked, “Are you sure that Azalea is the daughter of the Floyd family?”
“I’m sure about it. That time, I saw Madelyn swapping her child with my eyes, and Emily had also admitted her true identity via a call. Furthermore, Azalea also went to do a DNA test with Emily. There can’t be a mistake here, right?”
Meadow’s words dispelled Wayne’s doubts, but he was still a little upset. “Let’s inform the Floyd family about Azalea’s pregnancy then. I want to see their take on this matter.”
“Hmm, I’m not familiar with the Floyd family. I don’t even have any of their phone numbers.” Meadow wasn’t trying to shake off responsibility. After all, she was not close to the matriarch of the Floyd family at all. She wasn’t close to Emily either, so she didn’t have the latter’s number.
However, Meadow said with a smile, “Why don’t you inform the Floyd family instead?”
Previously, Wayne had brought Azalea to the confinement centre to visit Valeria, but she had embarrassed him instead. So, he would never do something this shameful again. “Alright, let Azalea inform them herself. If the Floyd family is indifferent to Azalea’s pregnancy as well, there will be a big problem.”
Meadow did not dare to refuse Wayne after hearing what he had said. “Okay, I’ll tell Azalea about this when I go to the hospital to see her.”
As soon as she agreed to do so, Meadow’s phone rang. The servant who was taking care of Azalea had called her. After that, the servant deliberately lowered her voice and said, “Madam, Miss Clark is losing her temper in the ward.”
“Alas! What’s wrong? Did you provoke her?” Meadow sighed.
“No, it wasn’t me. Mr. Poland was the one who had provoked her.”
“Ms. Poland? Which one?”
“I think it was Miss Clark’s aunt, Emily?” The servant immediately continued, “I pushed Miss Clark out for a walk and met her. Then, Miss Clark told Ms. Poland about her pregnancy, but the latter said some harsh words instead. Furthermore, Miss Clark even asked Ms. Poland to stay and spend time with her, but the latter refused. Thus, Miss Clark became emotional after this, and she started throwing things all over the place once she returned to the ward.
“What? Are you saying that Emily knows about Meadow’s pregnancy?” Meadow looked at Wayne in surprise as she said this. At that time, Wayne was planning to drink some tea, but he stopped and looked at Meadow.
Meadow immediately asked the servant, “Is she unhappy?”
“She looked unhappy and even scolded saying Mr. Davis. Furthemore, she even told Miss Clark to leave him!” The servant told Meadow about Emily’s disgust for Michael.
“Well…” Meadow had an upset expression after hearing this. After all, Emily didn’t care about Azalea at all, and she hated Michael so much. She never thought that this could happen!
However, she told the servants to take good care of Azalea and told Wayne what the servant had said to her. “Dad, could Emily just be pretending to be strict? Will she look for Callum secretly to discuss about this matter?”
“I hope so!” Wayne leaned against the sofa in disappointment and rubbed his eyebrows while answering.
“If the Floyd family loves Azalea a little, they will ask about her. However, if that happens, everything we do will be in vain!”
Meadow’s expression became upset when she heard this, and she asked, “Are we only wasting out time and effort by doing this?”
However, Wayne ignored her and just waved to Meadow to leave.
On the other hand, Emily had deliberately said those words in front of Angel. Angel, who pretended to be asleep, was so furious that she almost vomited blood.
Once she heard Emily’s footsteps that had left, Angel opened her eyes and began to curse at Emily angrily, “You vicious woman! How dare you say that to me? Urgh! You’re going to die a horrible death!”
On the other hand, Madelyn was actually flustered by Emily’s words. She was afraid that Angel would listen to Emily’s words and question her.
However, when she saw that Angel only wanted to scold Emily for being heartless and vicious, she felt a little relieved and began to follow Angel’s footsteps by cursing Emly as well.
After Angel scolded Emily for a while, she also felt a little guilty. After all, she was not Emily’s daughter, but she acted viciously towards Emily. How could she ask Emily to treat her well instead?
When Angel thought about her family background, she became silent.
On the other hand, in the confinement centre, William held Cade in his arms and fed him some milk. Meanwhile, Hayden brought Lucas in as both of them held some bags with smiles on their faces.
When Hayden saw that Cade was drinking milk, he looked around to search for Santhos before asking, “Where’s Santhos?”
“He’s sleeping.”
“Hah… these two brats. They even eat at different timings! How troublesome!” Hayden was complaining, but his actions were telling a different story. Instead, he reached out to William and said, “Here, give him to me. I’ll feed him instead.”
“No, he’s picky about who feeds him!” William refused to do so.
“What? Is he picky?”
“Yes, just now, auntie and the confinement centre staff tried to feed him, but he refused to eat anything. He only wanted me to put my work aside and feed him personally.”
“Did something like that happen? I don’t believe it.” Hayden reached out and took the bottle from William’s hands, and said. “My dear grandson, can I feed you?”
Cade was eating well just now, but he became unhappy immediately once Hayden became involved in this. Hence, he started crying out loud.
His loud and clear voice scared Hayden, so the latter quickly apologised and said, “No! It’s my fault. I won’t disturb your meal now, so you can continue eating! I’ll go and see Santhos instead.
After hearing this, William shook his head and took the bottle to feed Cade again. Meanwhile, Hayden walked over to the side of the bed to look at Santhos, who was sleeping.
Santhos had been sleeping well just now. However, he had opened his eyes when he heard Cade’s cries. When he opened his eyes, he saw Hayden staring at him. Both of them stared at each other for a minute before he opened his mouth and started crying profusely again!
