The policewoman said coldly, “We’ll accompany you here tonight. Rest well!”
Dew said with a pitiful expression, “Now that I’m pregnant, I feel incredibly lonely. Can you call my parents over…?
When she noticed that policewomen were about to say no, she hurriedly said, “I’m just a suspect, not a prisoner! I also have human rights! I’m sick and vulnerable, and I want to see my parents. What’s wrong with that? I don’t care, I want to see my parents! Go get my parents now!”
Although she was throwing a spoiled tantrum, no one could refute what she said.
Even inmates on death row had the right to see their family members. It was understandable that she wanted to meet her parents.
After an hour, Aaron and Ruby rushed to the hospital.
It was only half a month, but the two seemed to have aged a decade.
Aaron’s face was full of wrinkles, and his back was a little hunched over. People could barely recognize him as the famous Daugherty Corporation’s chairman.
As for Ruby, she looked even older. Ever since Daugherty Corporation was acquired, she was no longer the arrogant Mrs. Daugherty. She had sought out her grandparents to beg at their feet and had been scorned multiple times, but she still could not find a glimmer of hope to bail Dew out.
“Dew, what’s wrong?” Ruby rushed over as she said in a trembling voice, “Did someone hurt you?”
Dew held Ruby’s hand and said gently, “Mom, I have good news. I’m pregnant. You’re going to be a grandmother…”
Ruby was stunned for a moment before becoming overjoyed. “You’re pregnant? Is it for real? Is it Duke’s? I’ll find him! He needs to take accountability since he made you pregnant…”
Aaron looked happy as well. “Dew, now that you have Duke’s child, everything can be solved easily…’
“No…” Dew twitched her lips. “The baby is not Duke’s…”
Ruby widened her eyes. “You’ve been together with Duke all these years. Whose would it be if it’s not his?”
