Chapter 17
In the living room at the Crone family villa, Harry sat on the sofa and looked at Lilian. “Lilian, are you sure Dr. Ceylan will treat
Jessica ?”
Lilian smirked. Yesterday, Wendy, under the influence of the drug, left with Dr. Whalen. The two of them must have ignited a passionate flame during the short hours of the night. As long as Dr. Whalen got what he wanted, he would surely introduce Dr.
C eyl an to treat Jessica
Lilian smiled. “Don’t worry. Dr. Whalen will bring good news shortly.”
With that she s at on Harry s lap Harry the CEO of his company exuded the charm and authority of a middle aged man Wrapping her arms around his neck she said coquettish ly Honey I was the one who brought Dr C eyl an here How are your planning to reward me
Harry pinched her nose gently. “Didn’t I already reward you last night? Didn’t it satisfy you? ”
Lilian rolled her eyes playfully and pulled out a bottle of contraceptive pills. “Honey, I don’t want to take these anymore. I want to get pregnant and give you a son.”
Harry s expression changed
In all these years of marriage, Lilian had never gotten pregnant because Harry didn’t want her to. She had been taking these pills
for years .
Lilian knew Jessica was Harry s precious daughter someone he would do anything for After all Jessica was born of that woman
But…
Lilian concealed the strange glint in her eyes and hugged Harry, acting spoiled. “Honey, Jessica is all grown up now and will soon
become Mrs Hawk Let s have a son together
Harry didn t respond
At that moment the sound of footsteps echoed through the hallway Ted had arrived
Lilian’s eyes lit up as she immediately got off Harry’s lap . She knew that once Dr. Ceylan agreed to treat Jessica, she could discuss
having a son with Harry.
Smiling brightly she greeted Dr Whalen you re here Did Wendy satisfy you last night
Lilian was too delighted to notice the unease on Ted s face
Ted s eyelids twitched Yes very much
Lilian beamed. “ In that case, you can arrange for Dr. Ceylan to treat Jessica, can’t you?”
Harry also stood up, looking at Ted with hope in his eyes. “Dr. Whalen, as long as Dr. Ceylan agrees to treat Jessica , I’ll reward you

handsomely.”
Ted glanced at Lilian. “Mrs. Crone, I’m here today to deliver a message from Dr. Ceylan.”
“What is it?”
Both Harry and Lilian tensed up
Dr C eyl an asked me to tell you to stop wasting your efforts Jessica will never receive the treatment she deserves Ted replied
“What?”
Lilian’s expression changed drastically. “Dr. Whalen, you…must be mistaken , right?”
Harry turned to Lilian, his gaze icy. “Lilian, is this the result of your great efforts? Dr. Ceylan blacklisted Jessica?”
“Darling, I don’t know how things turned out this way! Please, let me explain…”
Lilian tried to grab Harry’s sleeve, but he pushed her away forcefully. She staggered back, hitting the wall with a loud thud.
Bang!
Her forehead slammed against the wall leaving a bruise on it Lilian winced tears streaming from the pain
“Honey…”
Harry’s gaze fell on the contraceptive pills on the coffee table. “You’re right . You don’t need to take these anymore because you
won t have another chance
With that, he strode out of the room.
Lilian s face turned ashen Honey
She grabbed Ted by the arm
“Dr. Whalen, what’s going on here?! Didn’t we agree that I’d send Wendy to your bed, and you’d help me arrange for Dr. Ceylan’s
treatment How did this happen
Her voice f
faltered when she noticed a slender and elegant figure standing by the doorway Wendy had arrived
