The nurse couldn't believe her own ears. She confirmed with him precariously, asking, "Mr. Kyle, are you really going to give your child to that woman? Aren't you afraid that she might do something else? The more you indulge her, the more she'll take advantage of you."
As a nurse, their decision was technically none of her business. However, the words slipped out of her mouth before she could stop herself.
Jayden said in a deep voice, "Please take him away now."
He didn't want to see the child any longer. The child was a reminder of how Jayden had been fooled.
The nurse didn't understand what was going on, but when she saw Jayden's gloomy face, she didn't dare to say another word, nor did she remain there any longer. She quickly carried the child away.
As soon as the nurse left, Jayden gave Stanley a call.
Stanley still didn't know something big had happened. When he walked in, he was still beaming from ear to ear. Since his master had just welcomed a healthy son into the world that morning, Stanley was sure he would be in a good mood. However, after entering the house, Stanley sensed that something was amiss. Instead of smiling, Jayden was fuming with anger.
Subconsciously, Stanley scratched his neck and queried, "Sir, why did you call me here?"
Jayden's stern eyes pinned him with a cold gaze. "Stanley, how dare you!"
"Sir, I..." Stanley didn't know what was going on. He turned to Silvia for help, hoping that she would help him.
However, Silvia just stared at him blankly without helping him the way she usually would. Judging from her actions, he could tell that it was something serious.
Over the years, Stanley and his subordinates have accepted Silvia as the mistress of the house. They were good to Silvia, so Silvia was good to them. When they made mistakes, as long as it was something forgivable, Silvia would always plead on their behalf. It made their lives much easier.
While Jayden clearly knew that Silvia was begging on their behalf, he always let her have her way. In fact, he did that to let them see how nice of a person Silvia was as he wanted them to serve her well. He did it for Silvia so that they'd accept her as their true mistress.
However, in the face of such a serious matter, Silvia wouldn't interfere. The sole condition for her to help them was that it wouldn't cause more problems for Jayden.
Stanley thought to himself, "I'm screwed!"
It had been a long time since he was scolded by his master. He knew he was done for this time.
"You don't know what you did wrong?" Jayden's voice became sharper and colder.
Stanley cried pitifully, "Sir, please tell me. I don't think I've ever been bold enough to commit a wrong knowingly."
Jayden withheld the urge to kick him. "Who does that child belong to?"
Standing there in a blur, he replied stupidly, "Which child?"
Jayden retorted, "Which child do you think I'm referring to?"
After some time, Stanley finally realised what he was talking about. In fact, he even found Jayden's question a bit funny. "Sir, the question you're asking is a little odd. Doesn't the child belong to you and Mrs. Kyle?"
Jayden knew that Stanley was dense. Nonetheless, their conversation proved that Stanley had nothing to do with the matter. "I'm going to give you two hours to check it out. You need to figure out where you went wrong. Once you've figured that out, let me know."
Stanley was dumbfounded. He repeated, "Sir, isn't the child yours?"
Stanley remembered everything clearly. Back then, he personally witnessed Bianca being wheeled into the operating room. He even waited for her until the entire procedure was over. After the operation, the doctor told him that the surgery was successful, and they'd need to observe her for a few days. There weren't any complications throughout the entire operation.
