Chapter 337 Aunt Flo was here! "Wait up!" I called out to Lisa while jogging after her. "You jinxed it. My period just started. Do you have any sanitary supplies here?" She pulled the key to the break room from her pocket and handed it to me. "Help yourself." We took the elevator to her office. Before we even saw anyone, we could hear angry voices.
"You shameless woman! You married my son and then fooled around with other men, causing my son's death. "You're pregnant with an illegitimate child and still have the nerve to claim that it's from the Goodwin family. Do you think we don't know your real motives? You're just after my son's compensation money." Lisa had already rushed off, but I was momentarily stunned. These accusations sounded oddly familiar.

Before I even got close, I heard a familiar voice saying, "This child is definitely from the Goodwin family. We'll know for sure once it's born and tested." It was Jewel. No wonder she had sounded so familiar! "A paternity test? Do you think we'll trust that? We know that you've hooked up with a wealthy man and can manipulate any result. But we're sure that this baby can't be from the Goodwin family.
"Everyone, csee this shameless woman. She was caught cheating by my son, and then she caused his accident. Who will punish this woman and avenge my son?" After she was done speaking, Melany Glass started crying in distress.
Then, I heard Lisa's voice trying to calm her. "Madam, this is a hospital. Please don't cause a scene here. It might affect the other patients." Was Lisa really telling her not to cause a scene there? Would it be okay if they moved somewhere else then? I couldn't help but smile to myself. Lisa had probably recognized Jewel, which was why she was using such persuasive words.
"Doctor, I'm not causing trouble. This woman and her lover are responsible for my son's death. He was our only child..." This situation was truly heartbreaking.
"Madam, this is a private family matter. It's not appropriate to discuss it here. You should continue this conversation outside the hospital. Melany shook her head. "I want everyone to hear how shameless this woman is. She had an affair and caused her husband's death." Lisa tried again. "Madam, please lower your voice." "No, I want everyone to hear this! Not only will I shout here, but I'll follow her wherever she goes and continue to expose her!" I couldn't help but smile at Lisa's attempts to calm the situation down. It was clear that she was stoking the flames rather than soothing them.

Jewel's face flushed red, and her eyes were brimming with tears. It was evident that it would be useless no matter what she said now. Defeated, she turned to leave. But Melany's anger had already reached its peak. Seeing Jewel try to leave, she grabbed Jewel.
Melany's wrinkled hand clutched Jewel's long black hair, and Jewel let out a cry of pain.
In her fury, she clawed and scratched at Jewel. Her actions were fueled by either rage or grief for her deceased son.
Most of the people around were heavily pregnant, and seeing the m commotion, they all kept theip M distance avoiding any involvement. Jewel was left to endure Melany's assault, and even from a distance, I could see how painful it was. "I'll make sure you get what's coming to you for trying to swindle my son's money with your illegitimate child!" X
