Chapter 73 Maura Is Pregnant
She stopped in her tracks and answered truthfully, “Yes.”
After a few seconds of silence, Charlie loosened his grip on her wrist imperceptibly. His eyes were
deep and unfathomable. “Go ahead.”
Evelyn quickly walked out of the private room and into the restroom. She turned on the tap and wet the
handkerchief on her forehead. Her mind was filled with Nick Grand’s words.
At that time, her father was investigated by the government for approval of a business deal. The reason
was corruption and bribery. At that time, the group they cooperated with was the M&F Group, but at
that time, the M&F Group was not as large as it was now. That was their first joint project with the
government.
Evelyn didn’t know the details. She only knew that Ben had

lot of money bailing him out. With such a dark history, it was
very difficult for him to find a job. His friends who used to be
with him all avoided him. Ben could only rely on small retail
businesses to support his life.
Speaking of corruption, as far as she could remember, she
had never felt that her family was particularly rich. It was just that it was not as good as the well-off life.
But she didn’t expect that Nick, who was Ben’s lawyer in the case back then, would become the legal
representative of M&F Group.
By rights, no matter how ambitious the M&F Group was, they would not choose to use such a person.
Moreover, the matter had caused quite a stir back then. Was the president of the M&F Group stupid or
what?
She felt that something was wrong. It must not be simple. She had to ask her father later.
Just as she was lost in thought, her phone vibrated in her pocket. She took it out and saw that it was
Jerry.
She picked it up. “Hello.”
“Where are you?” The man’s calm voice came from the phone.
She took off the wet tissue on her forehead and threw it into
the trash can. “A social engagement.”
“Let’s meet when you’re done.”
“Let’s talk on the phone. We may not make it in time.” The most
important thing was that she didn’t want to see him now.
he person on the other end of the line pondered for a moment before saying, “Don’t you want to talk
about the divorce? Sit down and have a good talk.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe paused for a moment and was a little wary of his sudden change of attitude. “Why did you
suddenly think it through?”
“Maura is pregnant.”
Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still shocked. Maura was pregnant…
She couldn’t help but think of Nora. She knew very well how much she wanted to have a grandson.
Back then, when she married Jerry, she had been urged to get married. Now, her wish had finally come
true. For the sake of Maura and her
grandson, Nora would agree to the divorce.
She thought that she would be heartbroken, but she was sad to find that in addition to her initial
surprise, she was much. calmer than she had imagined.
Her emotions had long been exhausted by Jerry’s pestering.
“Come out. I’ve booked a private room in the Red Cauldron.
Let’s make it clear face to face, A 301.”
