Chapter 1248: Chapter 1248: Pregnancy

Aurelia Shaw was momentarily stunned, then her almond-shaped eyes narrowed into a subtle arc.

Butler Li felt a chill down his spine from Aurelia’s gaze. In his impression, Young Madam had always been gentle and kind, never did he expect her to show such an expression.

It was at this moment that Butler Li gradually realized that although Young Madam appeared kind, she was selective. She was benevolent to those who treated her well, but once someone hurt her, she revealed her fangs and claws.

Butler Li instantly felt a wave of regret, "Young Madam, I won’t hurt you again, last time... I’m sorry, I understand if you don’t forgive me."

Some of the ice in Aurelia’s eyes melted, but she still looked very cold. She was someone who bore grudges; if no one harmed her, she could treat them kindly, but if someone hurt her once, she would never trust them again. Having been hurt once, regardless of the other’s intentions, she wouldn’t give them a second chance to hurt her.

The first time being hurt was due to her inability to judge character, but getting hurt a second time would be stupid—like handing a knife directly to the other person.

"I’m here to see Nolan Lawson’s belongings." Aurelia got straight to the point.

"You may look around as you please." Butler Li sensed Aurelia’s wariness of him and quietly left the room.

Aurelia dug out numerous broken SIM cards from Nolan Lawson’s trash bin and took a photo, sending it to Hadrian Turner. Then, she found a hospital report in the drawer.

After reading it, Aurelia’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Aurelia walked out from the room and paused for a moment, turning her head to glance at Butler Li. The latter seemed to want to say something but Aurelia didn’t give him the chance, stepping out without a moment’s hesitation.

Having already caused harm, further apologies wouldn’t hold any meaning.

Aurelia gave Viscount Zhou a call and drove to the hospital. Viscount Zhou was waiting for her at the elevator on the third floor, his lips curved into a smile, revealing two cute little canine teeth, as he approached and put an arm around Aurelia’s neck.

"I knew you’d call me when something’s up."

"Who told you that your family runs a hospital?" Aurelia replied without reserve, following Viscount Zhou down the long corridor and into the doctor’s private office.

The doctor handed her a document.

Aurelia looked down and browsed through it. She remembered encountering Nolan Lawson at the hospital earlier; at the time, she thought nothing of it. But upon seeing the hospital report in his room, it suddenly hit her.

It turned out to be just as she had suspected.

Noticing Aurelia’s somber demeanor, Viscount Zhou glanced over, "Emily Stewart? The actress who plays Yvaine? I haven’t heard of her dating anyone, how is she pregnant?"

Aurelia called Mason Nightshade.

Emily Stewart was likely under Mason Nightshade’s control. He didn’t know Emily was pregnant, and if he did something inappropriate, it could harm the baby in Emily’s belly, which would be bad.

Aurelia trusted Mason Nightshade’s character, he would never bully a woman. But pregnant women are physically weaker and require special attention to their diet.

Emily’s current situation...

Hopefully, she’ll be cautious herself.

...

Mason Nightshade was discussing certain matters with Grayson Quinn, his gaze occasionally drifting to his phone; Grayson noticed this action several times and asked if Mason was expecting a call, to which Mason replied that he wasn’t.

But when the phone rang, Mason immediately answered, his chilling expression instantly softened; a subtle smile of affection flashed in his eyes.

Sigh, claiming he wasn’t waiting for a call.

Reluctant to reconcile, thinking he’s disciplining the other party, but who is really suffering now?
