Chapter 234: I’m Pregnant (38)
"Dad, my brother’s household registration has already been moved to our family register, right?""It’s been moved, but I’ve already made a property notarization. Only my biological children are eligible to inherit assets."
Stellan said matter-of-factly, "That’s only natural. Dad, I’m home for five days; during these five days, I’ll spend time with you. Tomorrow, I’ll go burn paper for Mom."
"You should indeed go to see your mom. Stellan, although the family company is gone, we won’t have any problems ensuring a comfortable life for you. While you’re abroad, Dad worries a lot."
"I know the family’s savings allow me to live comfortably, but I’m ultimately a woman. I can’t just sit idly by and eat away at them. I need to find a rich man to marry and settle down with. Dad, don’t worry about me."
Benjamin Quinn nodded, "Take good care of yourself."
Grace Hughes brought out the last soup from the kitchen, "From now on, I’ll have to ask the kitchen maid to teach me to cook; every time I eat what she cooks, it tastes so delicious."
"That’s a small matter. She can teach you anytime." Benjamin Quinn waved his hand, "Sit down quickly and start eating."
Grace responded with a smile, "Okay."
The meal was joyful and filled with laughter.
After dinner, Benjamin Quinn returned to his bedroom.
"Auntie, send up two glasses of milk later." Stellan instructed.
"Yes, Miss."
Stellan pulled Grace Hughes along and returned to the room, "Tonight, the XX game has a qualifying match; we can’t miss it. Let’s team up."
"I’m a newbie; teaming up with you would just hold you back."
"You play pretty well! Don’t undervalue yourself, Grace, come on."
"No, I’m a bit tired and want to sleep. You go find your friends in the game."
"Alright then."
Grace Hughes lay on the bed, but her gaze showed no sign of sleepiness. She quietly took out a small packet of white powder from her wallet, and when the maid delivered the milk, she poured it into one of the glasses while Stellan was busy gaming. Then she drank the other glass and pretended to sleep.
Stellan played a round of the game and then drank the milk. After drinking, she went to brush her teeth and started feeling sleepy.
Unable to resist, she closed the computer and went to sleep as well.
Once she was asleep, Grace Hughes called her name, but there was no response. Only then did Grace get back up.
She took the empty milk glass downstairs.
"Xiao Fen, prepare a glass of milk for Mr. Quinn too; it will help him sleep better."
The maid Xiao Fen responded promptly, "Okay, I’ll prepare it right away."
As Xiao Fen entered Benjamin Quinn’s room with the milk, Grace heard a scream from her.
At this moment, there was no one else in the living room.
Grace opened her phone to record audio and ran over.
Benjamin Quinn had pinned Xiao Fen on the bed, tearing at her clothes, while Xiao Fen was terrified, constantly pushing him away.
"Miss Hughes, help me!"
"Uncle, what are you doing?!" Grace tried to pull Benjamin Quinn away, but it had no effect.
Xiao Fen continued to struggle desperately, crying continuously, "I have a boyfriend! Let go of me! Let go of me!"
"I won’t let go! I want you! I want to X you!"
The drug’s effect on Stellan was apparent, leaving her completely without reason at this moment.
Grace had no choice but to splash Benjamin Quinn’s face with water from the teacup on the table. Nearly November now, the cold tea managed to bring Benjamin Quinn back to his senses.
Grace quickly pulled him aside; Xiao Fen seized the opportunity to roll off the bed.
"Xiao Fen, go call for help!"
"Okay!"
Crying and running out, Xiao Fen soon returned with the Quinn family’s bodyguard and other maids.
Grace backed away to the door, afraid Benjamin Quinn might pin her down too.
The furious Benjamin Quinn yelled at the bodyguards, "Get out!"
The bodyguards had no choice but to comply.
The maids didn’t leave.
"You few, whoever wants to get on my bed, take off your clothes and come over now!"
To Grace’s surprise, as soon as Benjamin Quinn said this, four maids--some in their thirties, others in their twenties--immediately started unbuttoning.
Two other maids hurriedly stood outside the door, clearly unwilling.
The door closed with a bang.
Grace and the two unwilling maids, along with the bodyguards, looked at each other.
Inside the room, soon the sounds of men and women engaged in battle emerged, with reckless shouts shaking the eardrums.
Grace promptly went looking for Xiao Fen.
The reason she had Xiao Fen deliver the milk was because earlier she saw Xiao Fen meeting her boyfriend at the front gate, their relationship seeming strong. She wasn’t sure about other maids, but Xiao Fen would definitely not succumb.
It was by chance tonight that Xiao Fen happened to be cleaning in the living room.
Grace turned off the recording and ran to the dormitory to find Xiao Fen packing her belongings.
"Are you just going to let it go like this?"
Xiao Fen, tearful, replied, "Otherwise, what else can I do?"
Grace sat beside her, whispered, "I’ll give you a million, you go to the public security bureau and report."
"A million?! Report to the police?"
"Yes."
"But I have no evidence..."
"I have a recording of your resistance; I’ll edit it and send it to you. Just say that whenever you occasionally went to his room at night to deliver tea, you turned on the recording because you heard he’s a pervert, so you were very vigilant."
"You’ll really give me a million as you say?"
"Yes, I’ll give it to you once it’s done. You and your boyfriend can leave Ningham then. You’re protecting your rights; don’t be afraid. Once verified, he’ll do jail time."
"Okay, I understand."
After Grace advised her in other aspects, she returned to the living room.
"I just went to comfort Xiao Fen; she’s terrified and packing up to leave."
The other maids sighed upon hearing, remaining silent.
Grace went upstairs to sleep. When she woke up again, it was Stellan calling her awake.
"Grace, with all that happening last night, why didn’t you wake me up?"
"The incident already happened. Would waking you up have stopped it?" Grace sat up, "In my view, the four maids who climbed onto your dad’s bed definitely drugged him in the food yesterday."
Stellan was nearly beside herself with rage, "Those shameless bitches! It’s a mess now, Xiao Fen reported to the police early this morning, and my dad has been taken for questioning."
"What should we do then?"
"I don’t know." Stellan felt extremely frustrated, "Can’t even probe the situation."
"If those four maids are pregnant... then your family’s assets could..."
Stellan’s eyes widened, her face turning pale, "That’s right, Grace, what should we do?"
"Make them take emergency medication."
"But I’ve already kicked them out."
"You..." Grace looked at her, disappointed, "How can you be so naive?"
"I’ll have them brought back now." Stellan ran downstairs to give instructions.
Grace methodically proceeded to freshen up.
