Bot this fool–why didn’t she know how to chan a man or devise some clever tricks? If she didn’t get pregnant, the only outcome would be being kicked out of the house
Lily made things so difficult, being so stubborn and incapable. It had been a struggle for Hazel as a mother, and she almost lost her position at Mrs.
Joyner!
Looking at the small white pills in the bottle, she seemed to remember something and took out a bottle of vitamin C tablets from her bag
They were slightly larger than the contraceptive pills, but without hesitation, she swapped them. After all, finding another chance to make the switch
Just as she finished putting the bottle back in her bag, Lily exited the bathroom
“What are you doing here?” Lily asked, noticing Hazel standing by the bed with an odd expression. She walked over and eyed her curiously.
“1-1 brought you a gift!” Hazel said, pulling a charm for fertility from her bag and tucking it under the pillow. “They say it needs to be placed under the pillow to work.”
Lily didn’t want to argue, so she turned and walked to the closet to change. When she returned, Hazel was still standing at the foot of the bed, grinning.
“Let’s go.” Lily said, heading downstairs first.
Hazel hurriedly followed her. “Lily, don’t take that charm out. It’s really effective. I went through a lot to get it.”

“Where’s your car?” Hazel glanced around the yard. “I don’t see it.”
Hazel still didn’t know about Lily’s car accident.

Hazel unlocked the car and lectured Lily while fastening her seatbelt. “Why did you crash the car? You’re always making things hard for Xavier. You’re lucky it wasn’t an expensive car, or he’d be really mad!”

You can’t embarrass the Fulton family.” The car Hazel was driving was worth over 800 thousand. It wasn’t a luxury car, but with the Joyner family’s recent decline, she didn’t dare ask Bobby for
Suddenly, as if realizing something, she sighed lightly. “If you don’t want that luxury car in a couple of years, just give it to me.
“My car hasn’t been changed in years. I’m not asking you to buy me a new one, but at least give me the old one. Honestly, I can’t rely on you for anything…”
She rambled on, and Lily couldn’t focus on her phone anymore. Somehow, the conversation shifted from the car to children.
“Women rise in status through children. If you have a girl, have another child, give the Fulton family a long–awaited grandson, and you won’t have to worry about anything for the rest of your life.”
Lily pinched her brows, then turned to ask, “You should focus on Hayden,”
“Isn’t Hayden getting g treatment? Hazel shot her a lock. “If you were proactive about giving Xavier a child, would I need to waste my energy on you?” The conversation went nowhere.
