Chapter 448: What A Fool
Ferris Bright shook his head. "I think you should focus on managing the businesses Mrs. Chaucer left behind."
He didn't agree with Joy Chaucer's idea.
Joy Chaucer shot him a sharp look. "Ferris Bright, are you scared? My mother gave you everything you have now, and you want to just stand by and watch her die?"
"Do you really want to save Mrs. Chaucer?" Ferris Bright sneered. "You just want revenge, Joy Chaucer. Life is precious. Wouldn't it be better to wait for the court's decision, and then use money to reduce her sentence? That's the best way to save her."
Ferris Bright's stubbornness infuriated Joy Chaucer.
"Useless fool."
Joy Chaucer stormed into the bedroom.
From the beginning, Chloe's greatest wish was for Joy Chaucer to inherit the company, not to fight against Meredith.
Joy Chaucer did all this for personal revenge; she couldn't swallow her anger.
Back in her room, Joy Chaucer made a phone call. "Arrange someone for me..."
...
The next day.
Tomorrow was Meredith's due date. Terrence Sterling took her to the hospital in advance.
In case anything happened, they would be prepared.
Stella and Julian also went to the hospital to visit Meredith, with Terrence Sterling accompanying them the entire time.
Meredith was nervous. She lay on the bed, looking at her large belly. "I wonder when Lucky will finally come out."
There were no signs of labor yet.
Terrence Sterling touched Meredith's belly and said, "Don't worry."
Stella added, "Babies who come out later are smarter."
Julian comforted Meredith as well. "Meredith, don't worry. The whole family is here with you."
"Thank you, Dad, thank you, Mom." Meredith was truly touched.
Grandma Sterling wasn't in good health, so Terrence Sterling didn't let her come. Otherwise, she would have insisted on being there.
"You should go home first. Meredith hasn't given birth yet; there's no point in all of us waiting here." Terrence Sterling said, "I'll stay with her. I'll call you when it's time."
"Alright then, we'll head back first. Remember to call us." Stella gently patted Meredith's shoulder. "Don't worry, we'll go home now and wait to hold our big, healthy granddaughter." Meredith nodded. "Okay, go home, Mom and Dad. Be safe on the way."

After they left, Terrence Sterling sat beside Meredith, holding her hand and kissing it gently. "Get some sleep."
"Okay."
Meredith was eagerly waiting for the delivery.
Meanwhile.
Stubborn Justin had watched the surveillance at the electronics factory entrance and knew the man delivering milk tea to Fiona. Ignoring Liam Michaelson's advice, he secretly followed the delivery man. Justin tracked him all the way to the CC Club and found out that the man worked there.
The man's name was Derek Donnelly, thin and lean. Justin had never heard Fiona mention him before.
Justin found him suspicious. How did someone working at the CC Club know Fiona?
Justin lost Derek Donnelly inside the club but coincidentally saw Joy Chaucer heading upstairs.
Fiona knew Joy Chaucer, and Joy Chaucer had a grudge against Meredith. Seeing Joy Chaucer's presence, Justin instinctively followed her.
Joy Chaucer walked to the club's sky garden, a private area that required Ethan Channing's permission to enter.
Justin could only follow up to the garden entrance; going further would risk being discovered.
Justin noticed that the man he had lost earlier was also there.
Derek Donnelly and Joy Chaucer stood respectfully behind a man whose back was turned to Justin, making it impossible to see his face.
Derek Donnelly spoke to the man in front of him. "Mr. Channing, the police are already watching me."
Ethan Channing remained with his back turned, shrouded in darkness.
Ethan Channing said, "Don't panic. Lay low for a while and come back when things calm down."
"Yes, Mr. Channing," Derek Donnelly replied respectfully.
Joy Chaucer asked, "Mr. Channing, you didn't call me here this late just to hear this nonsense, did you?"
"Behave yourself these next few days. Don't think I don't know what you're planning," Ethan Channing warned coldly. "Don't alert anyone prematurely."
"Your target is Terrence Sterling; mine is Meredith. Mr. Channing, I won't drag you into this," Joy Chaucer guessed that Ethan Channing was helping her because he had a grudge against Terrence Sterling. Ethan Channing sneered. "If you want to die, I can't stop you. Chloe took the fall for you; do you really think your poisoning of Bianca has been forgotten?"
Joy Chaucer was shocked. "How do you know?"
Justin, who was eavesdropping in the shadows, was equally stunned.
The murderer of Bianca was Joy Chaucer?
