Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 279

Nell told Cherry to notify Justin about the result, and naturally, he was unhappy to hear it.

However, there was nothing he could do. Fortunately, the contract he had signed with Anning International was only for five years, and there was less than one year left. He could consider this a cooldown period and choose where to go when the contract expired.

Nell considered this case closed.

As for his relationship with Stephanie Garrett, it was not something she had to worry about.

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.

Janet’s birthday was coming up. Nell counted with her fingers, but no matter how much she tried, she found that she could not go over to accompany her in person.

It seemed like Janet had cut off contact from everything in China ever since she had left the country, except for occasional contact with Nell.

This included Ethan Hancock and her own brother, Ulric Hancock.

As a bystander, Nell could not say much and could only care about her as much as possible, since she was pregnant and would inevitably feel lonely in a foreign country by herself.

On Janet’s birthday, Nell watched the time and called her the moment the clock struck twelve.

The call quickly connected, and Janet’s happy voice said, “Nelly!”

“Happy birthday, my dear.”

“Thank you.”

Hearing how happy Janet was, Nell also could not help but be infected by her laughter. “Miss Hancock, be honest. Did you miss me at all during this time?”

“Tsk, of course I did. I think of you day and night, wondering when you’ll come to visit me.”

“Don’t worry, in another half a month when my godson is born, his godfather and godmother will come together.”

“What if she ends up as a goddaughter instead?”

“That’s even better. She can be friends with Lizzy, and the elder sister can take care of her younger sister. How perfect does that sound?”

Janet clicked her tongue and shook her head. “I don’t know how you managed to get so lucky at being a mom. To be honest, it’s really hard to conceive a child. You won’t be able to understand the hardship.”

The smile on Nell’s face gradually faded.

“Are you alright there by yourself? Should I come over?”

Janet quickly refused.

“I’m fine. I hired a maid, so it’s okay.”

Nell sighed.

She hesitated several times but could not bring herself to say the words in her heart.

Janet had probably guessed what she wanted to say and laughed. “Nelly, don’t worry about me. Although I’m not that strong, I’m still stronger than you think. I got this.”

Nell could only nod. After thinking about it, she told Janet about the gossip she had heard during this time.

“Do you still remember your idol, Liam Jackson?”

“Yeah? What’s wrong?”

“I just found out that he was in a relationship with Tara from the Garrett family. If we knew about this earlier, I wouldn’t have let you worship him as an idol back then.”

On the other side, Janet’s back stiffened.

The fingers that were squeezing the phone trembled slightly.

After a moment, she forced a smile.

“Is that true? I’ve never heard about that.”

“Yeah, if not for the time when Gideon and I were dragged to a bar for a drink by Elijah Davis and I accidentally found out that he liked Tara Garrett, I wouldn’t have known about this either.”

Janet remained silent.

Nell looked around and asked tentatively, “Jan, this child… has nothing to do with Liam Jackman, right?”

“What are you thinking about? Of course it doesn’t.”

“That’s good.”

Nell used a relieved tone and patted her chest.

However, Janet did not seem to want to talk about this topic anymore, so she changed the subject. “Have you been back to Jincheng recently?”

She must have seen wrong. Yes, it must have been a mistake.

Janet gulped. Then, she suddenly laughed as if she had remembered something.

What was she so anxious about?

So what if he came?

It was impossible to take back what was said, and…

Her heart suddenly clenched as her eyes swelled.

She sat on the bed, dazed, until suddenly, there was a click outside followed by a loud bang.

It was the sound of the door being knocked down.

Janet was shocked. She quickly stood up from the bed and floundered for two seconds before running outside in a hurry.

As soon as she entered the living room, she saw the door of her house on the ground, broken after being pried.

A tall man stood at the door, looking calm and solemn.

Janet was speechless.

She stared at him with wide eyes filled with anger. “Liam Jackson! Who permitted you to pry open my door?”

This was the house she had bloody rented!

If someone saw this, how was she supposed to explain it to the landlord?

Money aside, what was more important was… It would not be a good thing if he was seen.

Looking at the door panel that had fallen to the ground, Janet grew completely furious.

However, Liam walked in with a blank expression as if he could not see the anger on her face.

After glancing at her and seeing her belly that was as big as a basket, his expression became even darker.

“Since you’re home, why didn’t you open the door?”
