I’m just walking around the garden. Don’t follow me.
Stephanie heard from the doctor that more exercise would help with childbirth. Whenever she was bored, she would take a walk around Wellington Villa Stephanie looked at the two maids expressionlessly at her back. She felt very uncomfortable being followed.

Thinking of Dominick, Stephanie remembered that Vincent and Scott came over again this morning. Scott was holding a laptop in his hand. He looked in a hurry as if something big had happened.
Stephanie was thinking about something. When she was a little tired, she sat down in the pavilion in the back garden. She looked at the two maith thoughtfully.
Dominick was particularly insistent on assigning two maids to follow her. He didn’t allow Stephanie to leave Wellington Villa recently. I’m worried about you” Dominick said to her in the study a few days ago. Stephanie was shocked to hear him saying this.
Stephanie took out her phone and casually browsed the news in the business circle. She was curious about what they were so nervous about.
Stephanie saw a bunch of news about giant domestic and foreign companies. She didn’t know much about the business information. So, she was confused by the news about the new material monopoly and the blockchain.

“Is Shane ill?” Stephanie was shocked. She couldn’t believe what she heard, When Stephanie was a child, she often sneaked into Pearson Villa, She knew Oscar’s biological father, Shane. He was in good health. But Shane was not good at making money. He was afraid of Teresa. Stephanie accompanied Dominick to the Pearson family banquet last time. She saw Shane in person. Shane looked strong and healthy. Stephanie felt that Shane could live past 10 years old easily.
Stephanie wondered, “Why was he suddenly hospitalized for cerebral hemorrhage!

Stephanie’s mind went blank as she listened to the news reports.
It felt like the Pearson family was about to face a disaster. Teresa was just struggling to survive.
She remembered Vincent saying that the Pearson family had Dominick to protect them. No one in the business world dared to provoke them. But now, even if Stephanie didn’t understand business matters, she could still see some tricks.
Someone must be targeting the Pearson family. It seemed that the attack was very ruthless. This movement caught the Pearson family off guard. People all felt that the Pearson family was going to meet their doom.
Stephanie pondered, “Who is it? Could it be him? Stephanie placed her phone on the round–stone table. She was confused.

It was Hayley. She actually came to Wellington Villa today.
“Ms. Isaac, long time no see. Stephanie looked at her with undisguised disgust.
The two maids around her immediately sensed that something was wrong. They nervously stepped forward to stop Hayley from approaching Stephanie.
Hayley stood ten feet away from Stephanie. Hayley was not angry about being stopped. She looked at Stephanie sarcastically.
“What’s wrong? Stephanie, you’re just pregnant. Are you suffering from paranoia? You’re telling people that I ordered the takeaway food that made you diarrhea. You also said that I wanted to kill you in the hospital. You’re so arrogant that you think Dominick will believe your nonsense just because you’re pregnant. Facts have proven that Dominick believes me more!”
Stephanie couldn’t sit still any longer. She stood up straight and gritted her teeth angrily. “I’m not talking nonsense. The person who attacked me in the hospital was a woman. I found your amethyst bracelet in the hospital”
“I lost my bracelet a week ago. Hayley spoke in a cold voice.
She looked at Stephanie with contempt. She didn’t pretend to be polite anymore.
“Stephanie, you may not know that Dominick now suspects that you are one of Oscar’s team. You are lurking beside Dominick So, Oscar knew how to defeat the Pearson family and the Innovate Group.”
“What did you say!”
Stephanie retorted hastily.
But Stephanie suddenly remembered the call Dominick made a few days ago. Dominick was whispering to the phone, “Don’t let Stephanie know
this.”
