Chapter 1623

Sabrina glanced at her watch and said, "You two should head hnow. Bettie is on her way back."

"Why do we have to leave before she comes back? Tyrone asked.

"Exactly!" Jennie echoed.

"If she sees you here, | will be questioned by her," Sabrina replied.

Jennie pouted. 'Doesn't she like me?"

Sabrina clarified, "She doesn't like your father."

Bettie was reasonable. Though she liked Jennie, she never forgot Jennie was the child of Keilani and Tyrone.

*Tyrone, maybe you should go halone." Jennie didn't want to leave. She really missed the days when she

stayed over and slept with Sabrina.

Tyrone picked Jennie up and grunted, "No. You will bother Sabrina if you stay. We have to leave together."

"Oh, con!" Jennie had no choice but to rest her chin on Tyrone's shoulder and wave at Sabrina. "Bye,

Sabrina." "Bye."

A few minutes after Tyrone and Jennie left, Bettie walked in with her suitcase.

Sabrina was supposed to pick Bettie up from the airport, but now that she was pregnant, she erred on the side of

caution and avoided driving. She had hired a driver. This time, she sent her driver to pick Bettie up.

"You're back." Sabrina smiled.

"Yeah," Bettie answered absentmindedly as she walked directly to her room, dragging her suitcase behind her.

Sabrina's brows furrowed, sensing Bettie was acting a little odd. Usually, when Bettie returned from a business

trip, she would push her suitcase aside, collapse on the sofa, and start to state what bugged her amid her trip.

This time, however, Bettie simply walked directly to her room without much to say.

Sabrina stood up and walked to Bettie's room. She knocked gently on the door and asked, "Bettie? Are you

okay?"

"Fine." Bettie's reply echoed inside her room, her voice faint.

"May | cin?"

"Sure."

The second Sabrina pushed the door open, she was met with Bettie lying on the bed with the suitcase in the

corner. "I'm exhausted," Bettie murmured.

Sabrina breathed a sigh of relief. "Phew! | thought something happened to you. Just get srest. I'll make

dinner." "Okay."

While Sabrina was busy in the kitchen, Bettie cin with a water bottle. She washed it and left. A few minutes

later, Bettie returned to the kitchen to get a teacup. A minute later, she cin to look for tea leaves in the

cupboard.

"I thought you didn't like tea." Sabrina couldn't help asking.

"I want to drink it all of a sudden."

"You're acting weird today. Did something happen during your business trip? Sabrina asked tentatively.

Bettie paused, gathering her thoughts before speaking. "Lance cto seewhile | was on the business trip."

Sabrina was stunned. "He's back? Did he pester you again?"

ME"

"What an annoying man! What does he want from you when he already has a girlfriend? Does he always bug

you?"

Bettie blinked. She cleared her throat and tried to change the topic. "He said Keilani is Royce's niece, and he only

regards Keilani as his sister, the sway he treats Alice. He had shownthe surveillance footage. It was

Alice who hugged him, and he pushed her away immediately."

Sabrina gaped at Bettie's words and circled Bettie a few times, inspecting Bettie's form from every angle.

"What are you doing?" Bettie asked curiously.

"| just found you beceasily fooled by men's words like me."

Bettie was speechless.

"Anyway, go on." Sabrina waved her hands.

"He said he could work at the Ramirez Group for my sake and helpwin over the shareholders. By the time

my half- brother joins the company, he won't be able to achieve anything since Lance has practically made the

company mine. That way, my father had no choice but to hand over the company to me."

Sabrina took a moment to absorb Bettie's words, sensing Lance was up to something. "What's his condition?"

"On condition that | agree to marry him. Only in this way could his assets turn into mine. We can make some

agreements first before getting the marriage certificate."

Sabrina's eyebrows arched. "Are you tempted to agree?"

Bettie walked up to Sabrina and hugged Sabrina from behind. She placed her chin on Sabrina's shoulder, a

thoughtful expression on her face. "Well, it's not bad. What do you think?"

Sabrina thought for a while before replying. Your agreement before marriage holds no effects. If it becomes a

court case or something equally murky, he'll have Royce in his corner every step of the way. It's easy for him to

tear up the agreement and string you along."

Lance was smart. Regardless of his intention, his proposal had taken advantage of the situation and had Bettie

stuck around him for a few years. Lance and Bettie had been together in the past. Lance was handsand

capable. If they lived under the sroof for stime, it was highly probable that they would make up and

beca real couple.

However, since Bettie was tempted to accept Lance's condition, Sabrina wouldn't dissuade her. Instead, she

would find a way to help Bettie stay protected.

"Then what should | do?" Bettie ran her fingers through her hair.

Sabrina suggested, "You could get a fake marriage certificate with him if you really need his help. After that, you

urge your father to have Lance in the company. Then, you hire a lawyer to sort out the details about the

arrangement of your property and the company share."

"Well... Alright." Bettie kissed Sabrina's face and exclaimed, "It's so good to have you around!"

Sabrina simply smiled.

Sabrina's prenatal checkup was scheduled for Monday.

When Sabrina went downstairs, she found Tyrone already standing by the car and waiting for her.

As Sabrina approached, Tyrone quickly opened the door of the back seat and helped her in. "Watch your step."

After she got in, Tyrone walked around to the other side and got in. Then, he leaned over and fastened her seat

belt for

her.

Sabrina wanted to tell Tyrone that she could manage but decided to hold her tongue after sthought.

Tyrone seemed to read her mind and said, "It's wise to exercise caution."

Then, he gently wrapped his arms around Sabrina, his eyes closed. He beamed and stated, "Sabrina, I'm so

happy."

"What?"

"We are going to have our own children. I'm very happy. Thank you."

Tyrone unconsciously emphasized the words "our own children”. Despite his promise to Royce to treat Jennie and

his child with Sabrina equally, deep down, he knew he might not make it.
