Chapter 127 The Blood Test
Nicole started to panic. “Mr. Harold.”
“Curtis, that’s enough!” Harold barked, his voice sharp and commanding.

Curtis clearly had no plans to listen. If something could be handled by calling the cops, never bothered with words.

“Grandpa, you’re old enough to know better,” Curtis said coldly. “You’re really getting involved in something this shady? Who’s the one acting out here, me or you?”
“Tell her to hang up right now!” Harold snapped at Margaret, his tone threatening.
Margaret looked flustered. None of these people were ones he could afford to offend. He turned to Adriana and pleaded softly, “Adriana, hang up for now. Let’s talk this through.”
Adriana looked at Curtis on the screen. “I’m fine. Get back to work. I can handle this. Trust me.”
Curtis frowned, wanting to protest, but before he could say anything, she ended the video call.
“Grandpa, you went so far as to bring in Ms. Hensley, who raised me, just to find out if I’m pregnant. You really went all out,” Adriana said sharply. She was done being polite–he was the one who’d forgotten how to show respect first.
Even if he was Curtis’s grandfather, she wasn’t going to let him trample on her boundaries.
“Adriana, if you really are pregnant with Curtis’s baby, just get checked,” Margaret urged quietly. “It’ll put Mr. Harold’s mind at ease. The orphanage has already been torn down, and the new site isn’t approved yet. If something happens to me…
”
“Adriana, it’s just a checkup,” Matthew cut in, his tone low. “No need to resist. Mr. Harold’s only thinking of Curtis and the family.”
He didn’t want to push her too hard, but he also wanted her to leave Curtis on her own.
If she wouldn’t listen, he figured she needed a little reminder.
“She’s just scared because she’s lying,” Nicole sneered. “That’s why she won’t go.”
Margaret looked at Adriana nervously. “Adriana.”
Adriana took a deep breath and met Harold’s cold gaze. “Fine. I’ll go to the hospital.”

Even if the test showed she wasn’t pregnant, Curtis would still have to agree before any could happen.
If he wanted to end things, she’d leave. If he didn’t, he’d fix this himself.
“Then let’s go,” Harold grunted, leaning on his cane as he walked out.
Nicole smirked at Adriana before turning away, texting Danielle with glee.
“We’re taking Adriana for a blood test. She’s definitely not pregnant. She’s done for.”
For Harold, confirming Adriana wasn’t pregnant would be huge.
divorce
A woman who got close to Curtis for money, lying the whole time—he’d never let her stay in the family.
Matthew glanced back at Adriana with a trace of pity. He wanted to say something, but she ignored him and followed Margaret out of the hotel.
He sighed. He didn’t care if she hated him now. One day, she’d understand.
Everything he was doing was for her own good.
She was still too naive and emotional, and she had no idea how deep the Lincoln family’s
power ran.
Someone like Curtis could only bring her trouble.
At Haldoria Hospital.
Adriana arrived with them. Harold had the hospital director arrange VIP service and a private blood draw.
He didn’t want to give her a chance to pull any tricks.
“Please wait about two hours. We’ll rush the results,” the hospital director said to him.
Harold sat in the lounge, his face stiff.
He couldn’t wait to see what kind of excuse she’d come up with once the results were out.
In the corner, Margaret leaned close and whispered nervously, “Adriana, just tell me the truth. Are you pregnant or not?”

Adriana shook her head.
She wasn’t. That was why she’d been trying to stay out of sight.

“Curtis told me his family has a rule–if the wife gets pregnant, they can’t divorce for three years. So I … ” she said softly.
She just wanted to hold on a little longer.
Hold on to the title of Mrs. Lincoln.
To that sense of safety.
She was an orphan. Adjusting back home after studying abroad took time.
If she could stay married for three years, it would give her a foundation to stand on.
By then, even if the Langfords or the Joneses wanted revenge, it wouldn’t be so easy.
“I see.” Margaret sighed. “And what does Curtis think?”
“Curtis wants to buy time, wants me to get pregnant soon,” Adriana admitted quietly, lowering her head. “But it hasn’t happened.”
Nicole strutted over, smirking. “Adriana, the results will be out soon. I can’t wait to see your face when they are. You probably don’t know this, but Harold despises women like you–flirty and greedy for money. Once the results are out, you’ll get what’s coming.”
Adriana clenched her fists but stayed silent.
“Adriana, maybe you should apologize to Harold now,” Margaret suggested. “I can come with you.”
Adriana shook her head.
Whatever happened, she would face it herself.
