After saying that, Helen hung up the phone. Paisley was stunned for a few seconds before she jumped up in joy. “This is great! The heavens are just!”
Danya was shocked by Paisley. “Miss, what happened?”
“The Clark family doesn’t acknowledge Angel’s child. According to Helen, Angel’s child has nothing to do with the Clark family.”
“Really? How is that possible? Whose child could it be if not Richard’s?” Danya was also shocked.
“I don’t know! I think Richard must have plotted against Angel after knowing her goals!”
“That’s great if that’s the case! Angel, that d*mned wench has treated you so despicably. Her retribution has come!” Danya was also delighted.
The two of them celebrated for a while before Danya asked Paisley, “Miss, how are you going to tell Ornard about this? Are you going to tell him the truth?”
“Of course not! I’m still not sure that my theory is correct. Even if I guessed it correctly, I still wouldn’t tell that b*stard Ornard!”
There was viciousness in Paisley’s eyes. Since she had told Veronica about Angel’s identity, she would only need to wait for Veronica to take action. After Veronica managed to get rid of Angel, Ornard would not have a legitimate heir anymore.
At that time, all of Ornard’s fortune would belong to her after she killed Ornard.
Paisley picked up her phone and dialed Ornard’s number. As Ornard was waiting for Paisley’s news, he picked up the phone and asked Paisley anxiously, “How is it?”
“Mrs. Clark was quite cold towards me. She didn’t give me a chance to speak at all.”
Ornard’s heart sank. “Really? Didn’t you tell her that Angel gave birth to a boy?”
“I did. But Mrs. Clark said that many women would gladly bear children for Richard. The Clark family wouldn’t want a child bore by an impoverished family.”
“What…” Ornard was so angry that he wanted to swear, but he swallowed it back. “What should we do now? Do you have any good ideas?”
Paisley had a cold sneer on her face. “Since Helen is unwilling to accept the child, you have to deal with it. How about you talk to Donald or Richard?”
Ornard hung up the phone resentfully and was frustrated. He also wanted to talk to Richard or Donald about this, but he was sure that the outcome would be unsatisfactory.
Ornard got up and paced around in the room. When Veronica came in to serve him tea, she asked worriedly after seeing Ornard like this. “What’s wrong?”
Ornard did not hide it from her. “The Clark family is unwilling to acknowledge Angel’s child.”
“Why?” Veronica was secretly delighted when she heard the Clark family was unwilling to acknowledge Angel’s child. But she still asked with a look of concern.
“How do I know why?” Ornard was not happy.
“Should you get the Floyd family to deal with this?” Veronica deliberately mentioned the Floyd family.
“If the Floyd family was willing to deal with this, they would have done so a long time ago! They don’t want to meddle in this matter anymore.” Ornard became more annoyed when he saw Veronica.
He wouldn’t be able to hide Angel’s identity much longer. If Veronica were to find out that Angel was his daughter, she would surely be infuriated and kick up a fuss.
He was now counting on Veronica to file a lawsuit against Callum to get a high amount of alimony. This matter had to be carried out as soon as possible.
Ornard tried to hold back his frustrations. “We have to hurry with the divorce lawsuit against Callum. I will inform the lawyer later to hurry up with it.”
Veronica said softly, “Do as you wish.”
Ornard then called his lawyer to talk about the divorce. Veronica stood beside him and heard the lawyer telling Ornard how difficult the case was. When she saw how furious Ornard was, she was only delighted.
Ornard had taken advantage of her throughout her life, and now he still wanted to gain profits through her. Did he think she would allow him to succeed so easily?
She wanted to see Ornard’s business empire collapse with her own eyes. She wanted him to experience the devastation of burying his daughter. As Veronica thought of this, she frowned. The people she sent to deal with Angel had gone for a long time. Why wasn’t there any news from them?
These people had a really low efficiency. She had to hurry them up.
As Ornard was still talking to the lawyer angrily, Veronica turned around and left Ornard’s study out of boredom. As she walked to the door, she suddenly heard a loud bang behind. She turned her head and saw Ornard lying straight on the floor.
Veronica was stunned for a few seconds as she looked at Ornard, who was lying on the ground before she called for help.
The housekeeper and servants worked together to send Ornard to the hospital, and Veronica followed after them.
Ornard was sent straight to the emergency room after reaching the hospital.
Veronica and the others waited outside. Veronica hated Ornard to the core. She had always wanted to do to Ornard what he had done to her.
As Veronica looked at Ornard with his eyes tightly shut and short of breath, she didn’t have any sympathy for him, only joy.
Since Ornard was ill, if she got rid of Angel and Ornard couldn’t have any more children, he would lose all hope. By then, Ornard would surely collapse from this setback, and she would be in control over the Laban family.
Veronica couldn’t help but send a message to ask, “Why are there no updates for the task I sent you to do?”
The other party replied, “We are unfamiliar with the country. It’s not easy for us to take action and have been waiting for an opportunity!”
“What’s so difficult about this? You should hurry up! Get rid of both the child and the adult!” Veronica urged.
“We can’t do anything about the child. He is still in the insulator, and we don’t know which one is he. As for the adult, we have been looking for an opportunity. We will deal with her as soon as possible!”
“You have to get rid of both the adult and child! I can pay you more money!” Veronica became anxious as she didn’t expect Angel to give birth prematurely. She was most worried that the Clark family would have a change of mind and accept the child.
It would be much harder to get rid of the child under the Clark family’s protection. Veronica knew very well that Ornard wanted to unite their families through marriage with Richard. She could never allow Ornard to have a way out.
After waiting outside the emergency room for a long time, Ornard was brought out.
Veronica immediately pretended to be anxious and went forward to ask about Ornard’s condition. The doctor replied, “We detected a harmful substance in his blood. It may be the cause of his coma.”
Hearing the doctor’s answer, Veronica and the housekeeper asked in surprise, “What harmful substance?”
“We need to run some tests to determine what it is. For now, we will need to admit him for observation.”
Ornard was then sent to the ward. Veronica was inexplicably nervous as she had been giving Ornard drugs for some time now. Could the harmful substance that the doctor mentioned the drugs she gave Ornard?
Since the fact that she had given Ornard harmful drugs was going to be exposed, she had to hurry in dealing with Angel.
As Veronica thought about it, a message came into her phone. “Mrs. Laban, I have good news for you. The child Angel was pregnant with is not Richard’s. It’s now impossible for Ornard to control the Clark family through Angel.”
