He had been so blind that he couldn’t even detect his own wife’s pregnancy, or find a single trace of it…

Entering Jade’s ward, Hudson sat by her bedside and took her hand, bowing his head to press his forehead against it, his eyes bloodshot.

“You didn’t trust me, which is why you wanted the divorce, and you wouldn’t even tell me you were carrying our child…”

The room was tomb-like in its silence, echoing only with Hudson’s ragged, stifled breathing.

Jade lay there as pale as a winter frost, seemingly trapped in a nightmare as her brows knit tight and sweat beaded on her forehead, her lips moving in a frantic murmur.

“No… no…”

“Why? Why exactly why?”

To Hudson, those whispers were like jagged needles stabbing into his heart and radiating through his veins, leaving a suffocating trail of agony.

His face was a mask of ashen misery as he moved with mechanical precision to wipe the sweat from her brow with a tissue, gently smoothing the lines of distress on her face.

“Just give me a little more time.”

Hudson tucked Jade’s hand back under the covers, smoothed the corner of the blanket, and walked out.

The underground parking garage.

Hudson looked coldly at Kevin Bickford, his aura crushing and lethal.

“I’m asking you one last time: when I had you pull those medical reports, did you have them in your possession the entire time? Did anyone else touch them?”

Kevin gave a firm, emphatic nod.

“Yes.”

Hudson began to retrace the timeline; Kevin had handed him the reports, but he hadn’t looked at them immediately, leaving them on the bed while he went to a meeting.

This meant the critical report was likely removed by someone during that window of time.

Had Jade stolen her own pregnancy confirmation just to keep the secret hidden from him?

And then there was the incident where Jade was struck by Cortney’s motorized toy car.

He remembered how ghastly she had looked even then as he was busy carrying Cortney away.

After that, it was Rosa who had ultimately rushed Jade to the hospital…

The more Hudson analyzed the pieces, the darker his expression became.

“Go. Fetch Rosa and bring her to me.”

Soon, the guards delivered Rosa to the garage.

Seeing Hudson’s face looking like a thundercloud about to burst, Rosa was visibly trembling with fear.

“Mr. Walter, what did you need from me?”

Hudson’s eyes were like daggers, his voice dropping into a chilling, dangerous low.

“You knew about the pregnancy the entire time, didn’t you?”

Rosa felt as if she had been plunged into an ice cellar, her face turning white as her knees buckled.

“Mr. Walter, I… I…”

Hudson had already seen the truth etched into her panic, and despite his attempt to stay calm, a low growl escaped his throat.

“Rosa, I know you have a soft heart and likely couldn’t refuse Jade’s pleading, but think about the gravity of what you hid! She is carrying the Walter heir. If something had gone wrong. could you have lived with that responsibility?”

“I’m sorry… Mr. Walter, I know I was wrong to hide it from the family, but… she was just so pitiful, I couldn’t find the heart to say no to her!”

Rosa wailed and dropped to her knees before him, her head bowed as her voice shook with

terror.
