Chapter 666 - 674: Little Sweetheart

Charlotte Miller at this moment looked at Julie Sampton and thought she was a fool, to have handed over such a good husband to a foster daughter.

"By the way, how is the relationship between your brother-in-law and that foster daughter from your family?" Charlotte Miller asked again.

"Not sure, I’ve heard he’s been with the guard team all year round, only able to come home once or twice a year." This was the fact that Julie Sampton knew; indeed, James Black usually lived at the guard team headquarters, with the new house primarily occupied by Jane Sampson alone.

Therefore, although James Black had a high status and a good family background, Julie Sampton had never felt that marrying James Black and living a life akin to a widow was anything enviable.

To this day, she felt fortunate that it wasn’t her who married James Black in the end, but Jane Sampson.

Such a husband who was hardly ever home was the same as not having one at all; once he would come home, one would have to face such a cold and icy man. Just the thought of it terrified Julie Sampton.

"If he’s hardly ever at home, then their relationship must be bad, right?" The smile on Charlotte Miller’s face grew more unrestrained, "So the woman he was hugging in the elevator just now is his little sweetheart, huh?"

"What?" Julie Sampton was taken aback, "You’re saying he was hugging a woman in the elevator?"

"Yes, when I came out, I looked back inadvertently and noticed that the woman standing next to him was together with him, and his hand was wrapped around her waist, looking very intimate. It’s a pity, though, the woman was wearing a mask, glasses, and her hood was pulled down low; I couldn’t see her face to know if she was good-looking or not. However, judging by her figure, she had a nice body," Charlotte Miller chuckled softly, "Wonder if his little sweetheart is more beautiful or if I am."

Julie Sampton’s mind wasn’t on what Charlotte Miller was saying, but on the fact that Charlotte had mentioned James Black hugging a woman, which shocked Julie Sampton.

With a mask, glasses, and a hood—nowadays, apart from the increasingly famous Jane Sampson, who else would need to be fully disguised to go out?

If James Black and Jane Sampson’s relationship wasn’t that good, why would they appear here together?

Charlotte Miller tugged at the silent Julie Sampton and suddenly asked, "Right, they came down from the 4th floor in the elevator, didn’t they? The 4th floor is the Maternity Department, isn’t it? Do you think your brother-in-law’s little sweetheart could be pregnant? Otherwise, why would she hide herself so well, and why would a man instinctively wrap his hand around a woman’s waist if not to declare his ownership or subconsciously to protect her? Maybe she really is pregnant."

"Pregnant?" Julie Sampton’s heart skipped a beat, "Could it be they were visiting their friend?"

"You see, that woman was wearing flat shoes, and her clothes and pants were all loose-fitting; maybe she really is pregnant. Otherwise, what young girl doesn’t like to dress up in beautiful dresses and pretty high heels?" Charlotte Miller felt more and more convinced by her own speculation.

After speculating, Charlotte Miller felt even more annoyed.

Had she known back then, while at the guard team, she should have had the audacity to cozy up to the young Chief.

If Charlotte Miller had met the young Chief earlier, perhaps today it would be she who was pregnant. And with her capabilities, she would certainly have found a way to make Jane Sampson, the foster daughter from the Sampton family, give up her position as the chief’s wife.

In Julie Sampton’s mind, only one word now dominated: pregnancy. Was Jane Sampson pregnant?
