Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 941

Janet couldn't help but worry when she saw this. She peered at the pregnant woman through the glass door.

"How unfortunate. She looks like she might give birth at any moment, but here she is, obliged to join her husband's pointless demonstration."

Janet turned to look at Estella, who was leaning against the glass door to get a better view of the commotion outside. It seemed that she couldn't bear to see the pregnant woman endure such hardship, either. "She must be so miserable, being married to a man like Jethro. At this rate, I'm afraid that the baby can no longer be saved."

Janet considered their options and made a decision.

"Let the pregnant woman in," she ordered. "We have no idea when the paramedics will get here. She needs a proper rest in the meantime. Once the ambulance arrives, we shall assist them in loading her up."

"Think this over carefully," Estella immediately cautioned. "If anything happens to that woman while she is inside this building, the Larson Group will have to take responsibility. Even if we are not guilty of anything, I'm sure Jethro will kick up a fuss and pin the blame on the company." Although she had never experienced something like this before, she was sharp enough to recognize the risks that the circumstances entailed.

"I will bear the consequences," Janet declared, her expression grim. She couldn't just stand by and watch the pregnant woman suffer.

Dark clouds soon gathered above them. Lightning streaked through the sky just a few seconds before the heavens burst into a heavy downpour.

Without giving it a second thought, Janet turned to the security guard at the door and said, "Tell the pregnant woman to come in and take shelter from the rain. We'll send her out when the ambulance is here."

"But Mr. Larson has ordered that none of Jethro's people is allowed to step foot into the building." To his credit, the guard kept to the command that he was given and did act rashly.

As the rain pelted the pavement, Janet grew more agitated. "Look, I'll take responsibility, okay? I'll make sure you won't get scolded for this. These people have been out there for a long time, and the pregnant woman has already fainted. If the media gets wind of this situation, it will only cause another tide of negative opinion from the public."
