PopularNovelChapter 211 Regina's sharp eyes caught the moment, and she sneered.
"Oh? Mr. Jansen, you just made a promise, and now you're breaking it already?" "No!" Howard hesitated for just a moment, but then his mind shifted. He remembered the immense wealth of the Arnold family and the numerous projects they had. Clenching his teeth, he kicked Sarah aside and growled, "Of course, I'll keep my promise to you, Ms. Arnold. It won't change..." "Howard..." Rachel, who was standing nearby, rushed forward. "If we don't keep up with business for even a day, we'll fall behind. How can Sarah stay grounded forever? She..." Rachel and Sarah were both pressuring him, and Howard found himself struggling to handle it. Serena, who had been silent up until now, suddenly spoke. "Ms. Lloyd, don't spoil her too much. Did you forget about your spoiled brother?" She smiled lightly, looking over at Rachel.
Rachel froze, her thoughts immediately drifting to the six million she had lost because of Bryan. She quickly fell silent, feeling a chill run through her.
She just stood there in a daze, glancing down at Sarah, who was crying pitifully.

Suddenly, she clutched her stomach and staggered into Howard's arms, her face showing signs of discomfort. She said weakly, "Howard, my stomach hurts." "With Ms. Arnold here, you're pretending to be unwell? I haven't even scolded you for not raising Sarah properly!" Howard's frustration grew.
"I... I'm pregnant," Rachel suddenly said, holding her stomach and showing signs of pain. "I didn't want to say this, but I felt unwell just now. Howard, considering I'm carrying your child, please forgive Sarah." "Mom..." Sarah was both shocked and worried. She scrambled to help Rachel.
Howard only had two daughters and no sons. Hearing that Rachel was pregnant, his eyes widened, and his expression softened immediately. He hastily moved to protect Rachel, afraid she might harm the baby.
Rachel, still feigning weakness, continued, "I'm not asking for much, Howard. Don't be mad at Sarah. If we need to apologize, we'll apologize, but please, just don't make her suffer." Howard immediately nodded, repeatedly agreeing.
"Alright, alright. I'll do as you say. Sarah, why are you still standing there? Help your mother sit down and rest." "Okay," Sarah said, crying as she helped Rachel sit down.
Serena gave Rachel a knowing look-being pregnant at this moment to save her daughter was certainly well- timed.
Howard wiped the sweat from his forehead, rubbing his hands together as he smiled awkwardly at Regina. "Ms. Arnold, as you've heard, we now have a high-risk pregnant woman in the house. It's really not the right tfor any more disputes.
"How about this? I'll keep Sarah grounded a little longer and make sure she sincerely apologizes to you every day. How does that sound?" Regina was dissatisfied with this outcome.

But she had grown up being the beloved child of her family and Om understood the hardships of O M pregnandy. With a a moment of compassion, she decided not to push further with the punishment and simply stood up.
She said, "I'll let this slide for today, just so I don't end up blamed for any complication's with a pregnant woman here.
"However, Mr. Jansen, you need to keep a closer eye on your daughter. If she was capable of druggingyesterday, who knows what she could do tomorrow? If you keep tolerating her criminal tendencies, it's only a matter of tbefore your family is ruined.
"The Jansen family's legacy has lasted for over a century. I hope it doesn't end up ruined by you two fools." She glanced at Sarah, seeing her embarrassment, and that was enough for her.
Howard sighed in relief, glad that the confrontation had passed without further escalation.
But as Regina turned to leave, she suddenly paused and turned back. "By the way, Serena, I need to talk to you."
