Chapter 147
Chapter 147 My heart skipped a beat .
If Hayden continued speaking .
I didnt know what I would have done .
My nerves were on high alert .
The footsteps paused for a moment before gradually fading away .
It ended with the sound of a door opening and closing .
My tense body finally relaxed completely , and I collapsed onto the soft bed before taking deep breaths .
It was a good thing he left .
Lost in thought for a long time , 1 gently caressed my belly .
I thought .
I will protect my child and never let Hayden find out ! When the room quieted down , only the sound of the wind outside the window and the faint sound of waves could be heard .
After I calmed down , I got up and walked to the balcony .
Looking out , it wasnt completely dark .
The stars in the sky were particularly bright .
There were still many men and women frolicking in the swimming pool downstairs , and there was laughter and chatter everywhere .
I sighed sadly and thought , As they say , one persons tragedy is anothers joy I couldnt sleep that night .
Perhaps because I was at sea , I felt a little out of sorts .
Ethan came back while I was having breakfast in the morning ..
He reported , Boss , Nevin lost 2.7 million dollars at gambling last night , and he was so angry that he drank and slept until dawn .
He was still asleep when I came over .
In addition , Dylan seems to be following him .
I took a sip of orange juice and said lightly , Keep an eye on him , and dont let him do anything stupid .
Yes .
Ethan nodded .
He seemed to like seafood very much .
He seemed to like seafood very much .
I thought for a moment and then asked , What about Joanna and Zachary ? Have you seen them ? No.
Ethan answered quickly , and then said after a while , Zachary came to Nevin in the middle of the night , but he only stayed at his door for a few minutes and left .
The two didnt meet .
Is that so ? This made me a little curious .
I knew that Zachary was a sly old fox .
I wondered why he wanted to look for Nevin .
Ethan took a bite and continued , Hayden had someone guard Nevins door this morning .
He is probably protecting him , I sneered , figuring Hayden was afraid that I would really do something to Nevin .
After all , they were the real family .
Just then , a familiar voice suddenly interrupted .
Yvonne ! 1/3 232 1:03 PM Chapter 147 I looked up and saw Lucy running towards me , followed by Yasir .
I was still wondering why the two of them were together when Lucy arrived in front of me .
Yvonne , why are you still in the mood for breakfast ? The group chat is blowing up ! What happened ? Lasked , puzzled The sea was calm , so I wondered what happened .
At that moment , I felt that as long as the cruise ship didnt capsize , nothing else mattered .
Lucy quickly took out her phone and held it in front of me .
See for yourself ! I frowned , took the phone , and scrolled through the customer group chat history .
Sophia woke up early in the morning to find her necklace missing .
She was complaining in the group chat about poor security on the Pax Oceana , her words implicitly questioning me .
Panic immediately spread throughout the group , with everyone saying they regretted buying the tickets and wanted to go back Is Sophia out of her mind ? I saw her yesterday .
She wasnt wearing a necklace ! Besides , can she even afford jewelry ? Lucy scoffed .
She hated all those who treated me poorly .
I smiled faintly .
She may not have lost a gemstone necklace , but she certainly wants to return to Elysiumville right now .
Is she crazy ? Lucy was puzzled .
Yasir also chimed in , Yeah , why does she suddenly want to go back ? My father probably received news that the Jackson Group is about to be sold .
I explained slowly .
As soon as these words came out , Lucy and Yasir were stunned .
The two looked at each other , each seeing a shocked version of themselves in the others eyes .
Yvonne , are you serious ? Why did you sell Parker Group ? Yvonne , did you do this behind your fathers back ? Yes .
I nodded before continuing to eat the pastry on my plate .
It looked quite delicate and had a faint floral fragrance .
Silence fell over the tw two people in front of me once more .
Ethan had almost finished eating as well .
Seeing this , he got up silently and left .
Lucy sat down next to me and asked in a low voice , Did you really intend to fall out with your father ? Pretty much .
I didnt deny it .
They would find out soon enough anyway .
Lucy sighed and squeezed my hand encouragingly .
Its better not to have a father like that ! Yasir frowned .
Although he didnt know the whole story , he could guess it .
Thats what I thought .
You hate that family so much .
Why would you sell tickets to them ? I thought you … You thought I was blinded by money ? I asked the question he hadnt , my expression unchanged .
Yasir touched his nose and laughed awkwardly , How could I possibly think that ? Lucy shot him a dirty look before turning back to me , What about Sophia ? With her causing such a scene , all those VIP 2/3 103 PM & B Chapter 147 customers are getting agitated ! What are we going to do ? Pax Oceanas real profits didnt come from ticket sales , but from the entertainment and spending during the sail .
To have to go back after just setting out would be a huge loss .
It would also damage Pax Oceanas reputation , making it even harder to earn money in the future .
I frowned , but did not answer right away .
Seeing this .
Lucy became a little anxious , Yvonne , I heard that Hayden is also on the cruise ship .
Why dont we let him … not awave Before she could finish , I saw Jamie standing not far away , giving me an OK sign .
Instantly understanding , I smiled , Dont worry , the Wise ship wont be going back .
Are you sure ? Lucy asked , her face full of doubt .
Without explaining .
I stood up .
Come on , lets go watch Sophias performance .
Lucy was completely confused , so she looked at Yasir .
Yasir replied silently , I dont know whats going on either ! I took two steps forward , then suddenly remembered something .
I turned to Lucy .
And , I am not Hayden .
He doesnt need to handle my business .
I really wanted to draw a clear line between him and me .
Lucy stood rooted to the spot .
Yvonne , youre like a completely different person .
Yvonne , youre like a completely different person .
Lucy had witnessed my growth over the past ten years .
I used to be very clingy to Hayden and thinking about him all the time .
The food I liked was all his favorite dishes , my clothes were in colors he liked , and I learned to cook for him .
When we were in college , I brought him hand made lunches every day , even though he hardly ever ate them .
When he played basketball , I would bring him water .
When it rained , I would bring him an umbrella .
I smiled faintly .
I said , Im not interested in him anymore .
I mean .
Lucy shook her head , her voice choking .
Youre not happy .
I froze , my heart feeling like it was being crushed by a boulder .
