Chapter 157
Ella said, “Yes, we’re having a
a son
Jaden smiled gently and patted her head. “You might need to suffer for a while.”
Ella said, “But I dreamed it was a girl. I didn’t expect the dream to be wrong. But whether it’s a boy or a girl, I like both. The boy will take my last
name, Willow”
“Okay, whatever you say ”
Ella couldn’t help but murmur softly, “It’s actually a boy.”
As Ella was about to get into the car, she noticed a maternity store across the street and was instantly frozen in place.
Even though she was pregnant, she wanted to take a look,
Jaden, sensing her intention, took her hand and led her over.
འ ཇ འ
Ella was in a good mood and didn’t shrug his hand off.
The baby was healthy, and she had survived the most dangerous first three months. These were reasons to be happy.
Ella exclaimed, “Are all baby clothes this cute? And so many toys, even for such a small size? There are so many car seats. I like the pink baby stroller. This crib is also nice… Are baby biscuits good! I want to try.”
Unknowingly, she had said a lot
Although she knew it was a boy, Ella still bought many pretty little dresses.
After all, babies don’t care about gender at a young age.
Jaden felt an unprecedented warmth. Her smile and endless chatter were like a lark singing in his ears.
He was filled with a sense of fulfillment he had never experienced before.
As long as Ella was his, that was enough.
Ella was still rational and knew it was too early to prepare, but Jaden paid for everything she picked out
The goods in the maternity y store were shipped away in truckloads.
Ella asked, “Are you sure about this?”
it as much as we want
Jaden said, “If you like them, keep them. There are plenty of empty rooms at home. We can fit as
“Alright then.”
“Try these.” Jaden took out some small snacks f
These were the baby snacks Ella wanted to try.
from his pocket, like vegetable biscuits and blueberry melties.
Ella couldn’t help but taste them. Except for the blueberry melties, which were quite tasty, the rest were awful, with no flavor.
“Not tasty.” She stuck out her tongue.
“Good thing they’re not tasty. Otherwise, you would fight with our son for them. If you made him cry, who would I help?” Jaden said.
Ella finally came to her senses and thought, He said “our son” so casually. Did he really not mind?
Although the knew the child was Jaden’s, Jaden didn’t know about it and even thought it was an illegitimate child.
Ella thought, Jaden loves me enough to come this far. Why couldn’t he try to respect me and listen to my thoughts? Why did he always act in his own interest, not discussing things with me, and taking actions based on his own desires? Was it really that hard to consult me on matters!
As Ella thought about this, her eyes dimmed a bit.
Ella thought, Jaden, when will you truly face met How wonderful it would be if things were as peaceful as they
they are now!

Chapter 157
“Jaden, if you can accept the child, why can’t you accept Chase…” Ella asked.
Before she could finish, Jaden’s face turned cold. “Don’t mention that person’s name.”
The atmosphere instantly became oppressive, and she felt the intense hostility emanating from him.
Ella said. “If the child isn’t Chase’s, can you stop causing trouble for him?”
Jaden said, “If it’s not his, then tell me who it is. Do you have another man?”
Jaden lost control, gripping her shoulders with such force it felt like he was trying to rip her arms off
Ella said, “This child is yours. Do you believe it!”
“We’ve been divorced for half a year, and this child is only three months old. What do you think?” Jaden responded with a cold smile.
Ella’s heart sank.
“Believe it or not,” she said, pushing his hand away and walking away.
Ella thought, ‘If Jaden trusts me even a little, he should think carefully about what I said. Why didn’t he believe me?”
She remembered when the servants accused Jaden in the past. He asked Ella if she believed him, and Ella had stood firmly by his side.
She had never doubted him, yet she was deceived so badly.
Jaden watched her leave in anger, his heart aching. The fragile peace they had achieved was shattered.
He thought, ‘How could this child possibly be mine! If she’s going to lle, can’t she come up with something more plausible? I have said I would treat the child as my own. Is she still trying to deceive me? Didn’t I trust myself?
Ella was very angry and felt her stomach ache once she got back.
She quickly lay down on the bed, afraid to move around too much.
At that moment, her phone rang. It was from Jenny.
Jenny said excitedly, “I found it”
་ ཕ ༴ ཌ་
Ella immediately knew there was progress with Grace.
Jenny said, “Do you know what Grace’s confidence is based on?”
“What is it?” Ella asked.
Jenny said, “She got involved with the old man’s son. The old man has three sons and one daughter. All three sons have a chance to inherit the property, and the public story is that all three have shares and managed business together. But none of them are willing to share the property with the other two. And guess what…
“After Grace got involved with the old man, she teamed up with the third son. She’s been secretly drugging the old man, and she’s probably the last woman he had. Her words still carry some weight. Once she achieves her goal and helps the third son get the inheritance, they’ll get married:
Ella asked, “Does she believe that?”
Ella was stunned. It was clearly a man’s scheme.
If the man married Grace, it would be like admining to plotting for power.
Even if they didn’t marry legally, everyone would know Grace was the old man’s mistress, making her the stepmother of his sons.
If this got out, it would be a joke. The young man wouldn’t be so foolish.
So in the end, Grace was the fool
And
d Grace had married twice. The scandal with Harry was widely known. How could such a woman be the final winner?
Grace was cunning, thinking others were fools, but in the end, such people were the most foolish.
Jenny said, “Grace believes it. Grace is pregnant again, and the old man is thrilled, thinking he’s still capable of having a child at his age. It’s quite a spectacle. No one even knows who the child’s father is, and she just had her last delivery, She’s really playing with her life.

Ella frowned. After becoming pregnant, she had studied this area a lot and knew the harm was significant.
Grace was truly reckless.
Ella said, “She wants to help the young man gain the inheritance and become his wife, then deal with me. If that’s the case, I can’t let her dreams come true. Let’s expose her affair with the stepson.”
Jenny said, “Huh? Expose it now? Why not wait until Grace has succeeded and then is abandoned by her stepson before you expose her! Wouldn’t that be more satisfying?”
“Do you think she really has the ability to help the young man gain the inheritance? If she had that ability, would she have ended up like this!”
“That makes sense. Besides seducing men, she doesn’t seem to have much skill Since she always harbors ill intentions, she deserves it?
Jenny anonymously sent the intimate photos to the old man.
