Chapter 867: Chapter 867 Suddenly More Children Chapter 867: Chapter 867 Suddenly More Children “Grace…”
Grace Ziegler’s eyes were brimming with tears, and she looked at her mother pitifully, “Can you please stop pushing me like this?
You’re taking rumors for facts.
I try to explain, but you won’t believe me.
Do you actually want me to live in the mire for the rest of my life before you can be at peace?”
Ella Charles sighed and hesitated as well.
Even if Grace was engaged in shameful behavior, she still hoped to guide her back to the right path, to give Grace a chance for redemption.
Grace cried, and Ella felt a twinge of heartache.
Seeing her daughter turn out this way, Ella also felt she was at fault, blaming herself for not raising Grace properly.
At this moment, with Grace’s emotions running high, it indeed wasn’t the right time to continue the talk, “Okay, I’ll rest a bit.
We’ll talk again tonight.”
Grace Ziegler felt very annoyed and in a bad mood, but she didn’t show it in front of her mother.
Grace also suppressed her fury as she went to cook for her mother.
At the same time, Grace was thinking of a way to handle the situation.

She had to send her mother back to the Binzhou mining area at all costs and couldn’t let her disrupt her current life.
Everything she had worked so hard for, she couldn’t just give it back.
The things she wanted, she couldn’t let go of either.
In the meantime, Grace was also trying her best to soothe her mother’s emotions, determined not to let her ruin her grand plans.
…
In the evening, Olivia Jenkins suddenly heard a baby’s cry.
Star Marshall was in Olivia’s arms, already lulled to sleep, but the wailing of a baby from outside still pulled at Olivia’s sensitive heartstrings.
Olivia placed Star Marshall on the bed to sleep, instructing the nanny to watch over her, and then she hurried downstairs.

Benjamin Johnson frowned and asked Olivia, “You heard the baby crying too?”
Olivia nodded, “It’s been going on for a while.
I don’t know whose child it is.
Yet, I feel like it’s coming from around this villa.
I’m going to have a look.
The sound…
It doesn’t seem to be coming from another house; it seems like it’s from outside.”
“I’ll come with you.
The way you’re describing it, it sounds very strange.”
Without a moment to waste, Olivia hurried out of the villa, with Benjamin following behind.
Once outside, the sound of the baby’s cries grew clearer, as if it was just around the corner.
Following her intuition, Olivia ran to open the door.
Immediately, Olivia saw a baby basket at the front door with a baby about the same age as Star Marshall inside, the crying evidently coming from there.
Olivia looked around but saw no one, Benjamin stepped down, and his keen eyes meticulously scanned the baby.
There was an envelope by the baby’s pillow, and from the handwriting, it appeared to be written by Jay Bennett.
In an instant, Benjamin’s heart wrenched tight, his expression became stunned, and the hand holding the envelope was trembling uncontrollably.
Olivia rushed back and fixed her piercing gaze on Benjamin, “Is this child…
for you?
I didn’t see anyone around; they must have left already.
This letter is for you, right?
It’s related to you?”
Benjamin was silent, his expression still one of shock.
Olivia couldn’t care less at that moment, scooping up the child to soothe it.
Benjamin’s lips pressed tightly, his deep eyes squinted.
He paused and with hands still slightly shaking, slowly opened the envelope.
After reading the letter, Benjamin’s heart was a tumultuous mix of emotions, his hand running over his face in a moment of cluelessness.
While calming the child, Olivia watched Benjamin and spoke softly, “There’s a can of baby formula in the baby basket, the baby must be hungry.
Benjamin, please prepare something for the baby to eat first.”
Benjamin numbly nodded, carried the baby basket inside, and started to make the formula for the baby.
With the milk, the baby stopped crying.
Watching the child, Benjamin dialed Jay Bennett’s phone.
