She knew exactly why she looked ill.
The night before, when Jim and Sean got into their fight, Bonnie had almost suffered a miscarriage from Jim's punch.
Bonnie could not help recalling what the doctor had said to her at the hospital. "Ms. Craig, it's a miracle that your child is even still alive...
"Even though you showed signs of a miscarriage, thankfully, the child managed to survive.
"Of course, you have to be more careful in the future."
At that time, Bonnie had burst into tears. She was crying for her ill fate, as well as the strong will of the child inside her belly. Despite that, she did not feel like having Laura look after her at all.
To put it simply, she did not trust Laura.
She did not trust anyone apart from her obstetrician.
It was already a miracle that the child managed to survive up to this point, but she was worried that if Jim found out about the baby's survival somehow...
He would try to get rid of it or claim it for himself.
After all, since he had already split up with Charlotte, there was no telling what he would do to the child inside Bonnie's belly.
As soon as she thought of this, Bonnie stood up and said, "I'll bring Shelly upstairs now.”
Then, she turned and left the room.
Luna and Laura were the only two people left in the living room.
Luna's first impression of Laura had not been a good one, so she glanced at a nearby servant and ordered, "Go check if June is awake yet."
She knew that June had been up all night crying because of her cold.
Therefore, she was probably still sleeping.
The servant nodded and disappeared up the stairs.
