Chapter 374 Are You Pregnant?
Biancaโs words obviously stunned Malcolm.
Did she ask him to remove Lydia from the family?
โBut Lydia is my daughter. We watched her grow up. How can we disown her? Bianca, are you willing to do that?โ
โWhy shouldnโt I?โ Bianca chuckled. โSandra, your mistress, replaced my child, and Lydia stole my daughterโs identity. Why should I be kind to her?โ
Perhaps she had loved Lydia in the past. However, upon discovering that Lydia, Sandraโs biological daughter, had deceived her while secretly reaching out to Sandra, Bianca felt nothing but disgust!
She couldnโt figure out anything she had done wrong to Lydia.
But Lydia exploited her like a vampire, draining her lifeblood, all while using the very gifts she provided to finance Sandra. How ungrateful!
Malcolm tried to evoke Biancaโs maternal love for Lydia. โWithout our support, it must be so difficult for Lydia to be alone at the Aniston Villa!โ
Charlotte had always harbored a dislike for Lydia. If the Stone family announced at that moment that they no longer recognized her, wouldnโt that be adding insult to injury?
Malcolm couldnโt be so cruel. After all, Lydia was his own daughter.
Meanwhile, he completely forgot that she was so stingy when he asked her for money.
Bianca exclaimed sarcastically, โWell, Lydia is having a hard time. Since you are unwilling and feel sorry for her, donโt keep pestering me here. Get out! Go to her right away!โ
She pushed Malcolm out.
At the same time, Meryl and John walked in.
At the sight of them, Malcolm said quickly, โYour mother wants to divorce me. Persuade her! She is not young anymore and shouldnโt ask for a breakup. Wonโt it be a joke? If we part ways, it will also have a bad influence on you.โ
Meryl didnโt even cast a glance at him and went straight into the villa.
John looked Malcolm up and down.
โMalcolm, didnโt my mother give you a chance? Yet, you refused it. You canโt bear to sever your ties with Lydia, so from now on, live with her and her mother.โ
โBut Iโm your father! Are you going to abandon me and drive me away?โ
โI donโt have a cheating father.โ
โYouโฆโ
With a bang, John locked the door, and Malcolm was turned away again.
He sighed, gazing at the quiet night, overwhelmed by a feeling of desolation as if he were far from home.
The dinner table was laden with Merylโs favorite dishes, clearly crafted with care by Bianca. Even after Meryl had returned to the Stone family for more than ten years, this was the first time she had been treated like a guest of honor.
However, she didnโt eat much and seemed to have a poor appetite.
Bianca asked, โWhatโs wrong, Meryl? Are you not satisfied with the food?โ
Meryl shook her head slightly. A whole day had passed, but Chandler still hadnโt answered her calls. Despite being on a business trip, he should get off the plane now. It only took two hours to fly from here to Griffore. Was he still angry?
โTaste the tortilla soup. I asked the cook to prepare it carefully. Itโs nutritious.โ Bianca placed a full bowl of tortilla soup in front of Meryl.
However, the tortilla soup suddenly made Meryl cover her mouth and retch.
After a brief pause, Bianca was surprised. โMeryl, are you pregnant?โ
