Chapter 487
Lucille did not expect that Natasha would work at Franklin's company so soon. When she thought
about what had happened in the past, she was still angry and went in, without paying any attention to
her.
"You're still aware that this is your home?" Alma came out of the bedroom and said, "Do you know how
much your father and I have done and how many nice things we have said so you could get married?
Did you ask for our opinion before you got a divorce?"
"How's my dad?"
Lucille did not want to argue with her. She only wanted to go to the bedroom to see Marvin.
When Lucille reached the door of the room, she was stopped by Alma. "What's wrong? You have not
replied to me. Do you think you are so capable now? Do you think that you are still Mrs. Moore?"
Alma put her hands on her hips and stood in front of the door.
"Dear, let Lucille enter. Ahem, Ahem."
Marvin's weak voice came from the bedroom when he heard the argument.
"Enter? If she doesn't clarify the matter today, she can't enter the bedroom." Alma raised her eyebrows
and she was burning with anger.
What made her angry was that during Lucille and Franklin's short duration of marriage, she did not gain
any benefits at all.
She had planned to borrow money by relying on Lucille's identity, but it was destroyed by Franklin's
words the other day.
After that, she planned to find an opportunity to gain more benefits. She did not expect that before she
could even think about it, Lucille and Franklin were already divorced.
"Mom." Natasha was obviously proud, but she still tried to advise her mother. "Don't blame Lucille. She
is also very sad about the divorce. It's not like you don't know what kind of person Franklin... President
Moore is. With Lucille's character, it was impossible to tie him down."
"Shut up. How many rich families in A City are willing to marry our family? If I had known that she was
so useless, I would have waited until you were able to be married to Franklin." Alma really hated that
Lucille failed to live up to her expectations.
If it were not for the fact that Marvin's company was in trouble at that time and that Natasha was still at
school, this marriage might not fall into Lucille's hands.
"He and I have already divorced so it's useless to say anything now," Lucille whispered.
"Who allowed you to divorce? Go and apologize to President Moore now!"
"That's enough, dear. Let Lucille enter. It must be that Franklin insisted on divorcing her. She had no
choice."
Marvin could not take it anymore and tried to persuade Alma.
He knew Lucille well.
"You are just biased towards her. Originally, we were in-laws with the Moore Group. Many rich madams
had been flattering me recently. If this matter was to be revealed, no one will take care of me in the
future," Alma said and reluctantly moved from the door.
Lucille entered the bedroom.
As soon as she entered, she saw Marvin lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt. His face was pale
and there were many bottles of medicine on the bedside table.
"Dad, are you okay? What happened?" Lucille went in and immediately knelt next to the bed as she
was worried about Marvin.
Marvin was the only relative she had now. "I'm fine. I was hungry that night and ate at a roadside stall. I
didn't think that it would not be clean," Marvin smiled bitterly.
Lucille then understood after she heard Marvin's explanation. He was an ordinary person who had
made a fortune. Although he was rich now, he still had a soft spot for the roadside stalls.
However, she could not help but blame him. "Dad, if you want to eat something, call me. I'll make it for
you and I promise that it won't taste worse than the roadside stalls. You're old now and your health is
important."
"You were married previously and I was afraid that you needed to cook for Franklin." Marvin knew of his
daughter's cooking skills.
"Dad, when you get better, I will cook for you," Lucille promised.
Marvin took his daughter's hand and asked with concern, "Lucille, where do you live now?"
Alma suddenly thought about it when she heard Marvin's question. Her mind was immediately opened
and she asked. "That's right, where are you living now after the divorce? Where is Marie? Did Franklin
divorce you because you have another man outside?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Lucille could prove that she was misunderstood by Franklin, but Alma was not
qualified to accuse her.
"What? Are you angry? Then tell me where are you living now?" Alma rolled her eyes.
"I'm living with Abby now."
Lucille was not explaining this to Alma, but to Marvin.
When Marvin heard her answer, he was at ease. "I have not seen Abby in a long time. If she's free,
invite her for a meal."
Marvin knew that the two of them had been very close in the past.
"You believe what she said?" The most annoying part for Alma was that Marvin treated Lucille well.
Even if it was just a little, she was still unhappy with it.
"If you don't believe, then it's your... Ugh."
Lucille originally wanted to argue with Alma, but once she was anxious, her stomach rolled. She did not
have time to explain and rushed into the bathroom.
The three people in the room were sensible and could figure out what happened.
Different expressions could be seen on their faces.
"Lucille... Are you pregnant?"
"Hah! I knew it. Who does this child belong to?"
The most excited people were Alma and Natasha.
When Lucille came out from the bathroom, Natasha went up to take her hand and said, "Lucille, are
you pregnant? Who is the father? Is it President Moore? Or..."
Of course, she hoped that the child was not Franklin's. She thought that Alma had the same thought,
therefore she quickly looked at her and said, "Mom, it seems that you are right..."
However, without waiting for Lucille to speak, Alma immediately said, "Don't talk nonsense! Lucille is a
good girl. How can she cheat on Franklin? This child must be his!"
Lucille's face was full of disbelief when she heard Alma's words.
Just now, Alma firmly believed that she cheated on Franklin, but after Lucille showed a symptom of
pregnancy, she firmly believed that the child was Franklin's?
"Lucille, this child..." Natasha did not know what Alma was thinking.
"Lucille, are you pregnant?"
Lucille and Franklin were divorced. Now that Lucille was pregnant, Marvin was worried about his
daughter. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
"I, I have to go now."
Lucille did not know how to explain this matter at all.
As soon as she took a step, Alma blocked the door again. This time, Alma took Lucille's arm and said,
"Lucille, does Franklin know that you are pregnant with his child? You can't hide this. The child must be
born in a complete family. Only then will the child be raised properly."
It was the first time that Alma had spoken to Lucille in such a gentle manner. Her tone was full of
concern for Lucille.
It sounded as if a mother was talking to her daughter about her worries.
Lucille's face was full of suspicion. "This... This is my business."
She did not know what was wrong with Alma.
Based on Alma's previous behavior, her normal reaction when she found out she was pregnant should
be to insist that the child was an illegitimate child and that she had brought shame to the Jules family.
But this time, Alma's attitude was completely the opposite.
She pulled Lucille, smiling. "Lucille, after all, this child is a child of the Moore family. If he is a boy, the
Moore family will definitely hope to have a grandson, won't they? I don't think you should hide this
matter from them."
Lucille understood Alma's meaning immediately.
