With a miserable expression, Glenn fiddled with his pen as he thought to himself, "It's really not easy to speak with hidden messages!" In the meantime, Graham was a little lost.
What did that mean? Did he do something that offended someone? He didn't recall having any conflict with Soaver International. At most, they were just business acquaintances that had meals together. Glenn drew a big pig's head on the paper and stated, "You have a 'good' daughter! I really can't help you with this. Please don't botheranymore in the future!" Glenn hung up the phone immediately after he was done speaking.
He thought that this must've counted as his mission accomplished. If Graham really still couldn't understand his words, wouldn't it be too pitiful for him? He had to lose several millions of dollars over this. Graham was still dumbfounded as he held his cell phone, and then sent away his lawyer. He still didn't understand, what did this have to do with his daughter? He was the only one in charge of his company! What went wrong? In the living room, Donna brought out sfruit and saw Graham pacing around the house. "What is wrong with you? You have been so restless all night. Can't you sit down for a while? Cand have sfruits!" Donna Clark was Graham's second wife.
After she put the plate on the coffee table, she raised her head and saw that Lindsay was back.
"Well well well, our Miss Crouch is back. Why are you so gloomy? You look like you're bent out of shape about something! Gee. Chave sfruits." As Lindsay listened to Donna's ironic words, she felt even more aggravated. She walked over to the table and picked up an apple.

"Don't eat it if you don't like it! Your life is already easy enough, and yet you're still so snobbish!" Donna was not afraid of Lindsay. She grabbed an apple then took a big bite. Even though Lindsay was adopted, she held the sstatus as Donna in the family. On the contrary, Donna's daughter, Nerissa Crouch, had no status at all in the family.
Lindsay and Donna were always out to get each other. Graham was already infuriated and as he looked over to say something, he suddenly remembered.
"You have a 'good' daughter!" Graham could obviously sense the irony in Glenn's words. However, Nerissa was a gentle girl who wouldn't have been able to cause trouble even if she wanted to. Then, it must be Lindsay! That good-for-nothing girl! Suddenly, Graham remembered the scene he saw when he went to Soaver International earlier that day. That woman... Why did she look so much like that pretty friend of Lindsay? Was this related to that woman? As he recalled the scene inside the office, the woman had sat on Frederick's lap as she acted coquettishly in front of him. Their relationship seemed intimate.
In the office? Was this really because of that woman? The more Graham thought about it, the angrier he grew. As he tried hard to recall Alicia's name, he rushed over to the sofa.
"Did you do something recently? Did you cause Alicia Blanchard trouble? By the way, does your boyfriend also have something to do with her? Telleverything! Have you done anything to her? She was the one you brought back during my birthday banquet-a very beautiful friend of yours, her nwas Alicia, right?" Lindsay, who was already annoyed, grew infuriated when she heard Graham mention Alicia.
"What friend are you talking about? She's just a shameless sl*tty b*tch! She seduced men everywhere and even seduced my boyfriend, she just made us quarrel! Don't ever mention this b*tch in front ofin the future! I was being too nice to her, I should slap her more than twice and beat her to death-" Before Lindsay could finish her words, Graham slapped her.
"You are such a troublemaker! Why did you mess with Alicia? Did you know that she is Frederick's woman? Our whole family has to rely on him for our income! She can make our family go bankrupt with just one sentence!" "What are you talking about? Go bankrupt? Didn't we just take on a big project? Aren't we about to make big money?" In the midst of the urgency, Donna rushed forward with a horrified expression. "Honey, what are you talking about? We aren't really going bankrupt, are we?" Graham was boiling with anger.
"We'll soon be! It's all because of you! The big project, the profits, they're all gone! Now, I have to pay 80 million dollars just for the liquidated damages!" "You little b*tch, why did you go and provoke her? Go and apologize to her tomorrow and beg her to give our family a chance! If you can't make her accept your apologies, just keep begging until she accepts it. Otherwise, leave and never enter this house anymore! You bunch of useless trash!" Graham was so vexed that he raised his hand again. However, under Lindsay's gaze, he did not hit her again. He turned around angrily and stormed upstairs.
"Bah! You deserve it!" Donna sneered as she glared at Lindsay, then turned around and followed Graham up. "Oh, Hubby, wait for me! What's happening? Tell me-" Lindsay huffed in anger as she clenched her fists. "You b*stard! How dare you hitand makebeg her for mercy?" That was impossible! The more Lindsay thought about it, the angrier she grew. She returned to her room and shut the door with a loud slam. Then, she felt her stomach throb in pain. In less than a second, cold beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. She collapsed to the ground.
"Help, help, somebody help, my belly-" Even though Jeremy was reluctant, he still rushed over to the hospital. When he arrived, he heard an array of wails and shouts from the ward.
"No way! That's impossible! Giveback my baby!" "Who told you to take away my child? You murderer!" "Lindsay, don't be like this, don't be too emotional! You can't be too worked up as your body is very weak now..." Donna was at the side, picking at her nails.

"That's enough! It's not like you can't ever give birth again, what are you crying about? The child is already gone, there was no more heartbeat! It more was you who didn't take care of yourself while you were pregnant; you even went around to cause trouble! Who are you going to blapart from yourself?" "Stop babbling, it's so annoying. You're not helping anyway, you only know how to cause trouble! Just stop for a few days, will you?" After Graham shouted lowly in anger, he immediately left.
"I will ask the servant to send ssupplements over!" Donna also turned around and left. Only a shy-looking girl was left beside the bed.
"Lindsay, calm down, don't be like this. The doctor just did what they thought was good for you!"
As Jeremy watched the scene before him, he felt sorry for Lindsay. However, the pity was immediately replaced with a cold chill. It turned out that the entire Crouch family was great at acting - they appeared to be so harmonious in front of others but behind everyone's back, they were this cold to each other. As the saying goes, like father like son! Or in this case, like father like daughter! Just then, the doctor gave Lindsay a dose of sedatives.
He then stated, "Miss Crouch, you should understand your situation. Your body was not strong enough to have a baby from the beginning. In addition, you had too many mood swings during pregnancy, causing your placenta to fall off. Sooner or later, this pregnancy would have been terminated. I hope you can stay calm and take care of your body. Besides, you must not get pregnant again within a year to make sure that your body will recover and that you can have babies in the future!"
