Hades took a look at the change in Satan’s expression and immediately knew that he had ruined his brother’s mood. He was still full of excitement from the joyful news, but I became a killjoy by blurting out the truth.
He quickly added, “Satan, maybe everything will work out! Jude should stay here and focus on her pregnancy. Everything will be fine.”
Satan remained silent while thinking to himself, Indeed, now that Jude’s pregnant, she’s lost her ability to protect herself. Not only that, she needs to protect the baby she’s carrying. Seeing that she can’t even eat without throwing up, her fighting ability is nil.
With that in mind, he decided to put aside some of his men to protect her, which meant that he would lose part of his forces.
Moreover, Jude would need to make trips to the hospital. Every time she stepped foot outside, she would be exposed to unforeseen risk.
He dared not imagine the dangers that lurked around her.

“Yeah. I will keep quiet.” Hades promised.

In Digton City, Selena had not been in her best condition in the past few days. This time, her morning sickness was worse than in her previous pregnancies, and she was fighting drowsiness every single day. Still, to uphold the trust and morale among the employees, she had no choice but to drag her tired body to the company for meetings.
One day, she felt truly unwell and canceled her plan to go to work because her baby was equally as important as the issues awaiting her in the company.
When she was sleeping in bed, her phone buzzed repeatedly, so she took the call in a daze and realized that it was from the Finance Department. “President Yard, you informed me that some members of the Fowler Family would come in to sign their contracts for share transfer. Why didn’t they show up?”
Her eyes fluttered open upon hearing the shocking news. “They have struck a deal with me, and we even agreed on the meeting time. Did you say that they were absent?”
“Yeah! I was waiting for them. The contracts were ready to be signed, but no one showed up.”
“No one?” Selena gasped.
