Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 819

Wiona was utterly gobsmacked by the news. "Stabbed and in the hospital? Does Ryan know?" If Ryan knew, with his explosive temper, he wouldn't have been sitting calmly at the dinner table enjoying the gossip about Tatum. He had looked perfectly normal during dinner, as if he had already shaken off the negative impact Paige had brought upon him.

Conrad remained impassive. "Carter knows. The Thompson family called him last night to test his reaction."

Wiona's eyes widened in sheer astonishment. No one in the Blue family knew about this. There hadn't been a single peep from Carter's end either. Was Carter intentionally keeping Ryan in the dark? He probably didn't want his son getting entangled in the Thompson family's messy affairs again. That made perfect sense.

Conrad continued, "Paige survived the stabbing. Olive called Allen into his study, and they didn't emerge for hours. When Allen finally came out, his face was bruised and swollen. He definitely caught a beating. After that, the Thompson family started transferring their assets overnight. Today, they sent out invitations to all the prominent families in Easton Heights, claiming they're hosting a gala to celebrate the Thompson Group 30th Anniversary Gala. And guess what? I received an invitation too."

Wiona sneered. "So the Thompson family is trying to use this gala to pull some sort of stunt? But..." She looked at him with burning curiosity. "How do you know exactly what's going on inside their house? Did you plant spies?"

Conrad didn't deny it. "I don't intend to let them delay our wedding. Wiona, I want to wrap this up quickly." As wonderful as the Blue family estate was, it wasn't their own home. He was eager to take his wife and children back to Hawthorne Hall.

"The Thompson family is already trapped. They can't escape." He twirled a lock of Wiona's hair around his finger, his tone full of absolute certainty.
