Chapter 173: Chapter 157: No Contact Until Death (Part 3)

Mary thought: Jason really met a formidable opponent this time...

"Uncle Lawyer, you’re a step late; my sister already has a boyfriend."

"Twinkle, your sister doesn’t have a boyfriend."

Laura didn’t let Justin Hawthorne talk nonsense this time; she refused to admit that Jason Hawthorne was her boyfriend. Even if she didn’t want any development with Jonah Xavier, she couldn’t let him think she was being insincere.

This is not good!

It’s not her style.

Justin Hawthorne blinked his eyes, seemingly not expecting Laura to expose his words, and for a moment, his big, shiny eyes showed a hint of grievance.

"Sister..."

Laura felt a bit compassionate and softened her voice, "Sister really likes Twinkle, but sister prefers Twinkle to be an honest child."

Justin Hawthorne pouted reluctantly and said, "Even if daddy isn’t sister’s boyfriend, he pursued her first, so Uncle Lawyer must wait in line!"

His childish voice was especially firm, almost making the three adults in the room amused.

Laura felt a mix of laughter and tears; Twinkle is only five and a half years old! So clever...

Jonah Xavier was not upset and maintained his usual calm demeanor, "Of course Uncle understands the order of precedence, but being first doesn’t necessarily provide an advantage."

Justin Hawthorne puffed out his little chest, "Who said there’s no advantage? I am the advantage!"

His adorable appearance even made Jonah Xavier chuckle, truly unexpected from Jason Hawthorne, known for his cold personality, raising such a cute and charming son...

What a surprise!

Laura felt overwhelmed, facing such a situation was indeed quite awkward...

Fortunately, the law firm called, and Jonah Xavier had to leave for work.

"Take care and recover well, I’ll visit you in a few days."

"Okay, bye-bye!"

After he left, Laura breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that Counselor Xavier’s words were just a joke.

And hopefully, he finds she is too complicated, not worth his affection...

Justin Hawthorne suddenly asked in a soft voice, "Sister, do you like that lawyer uncle we just saw?"

Laura quickly looked up at her son, "What nonsense are you talking? Sister likes no one except Twinkle."

That’s the truth.

Justin Hawthorne was happy yet worried for his daddy, unsure and asked again, "Sister, you really don’t like that lawyer uncle? Godmother says he’s incredible!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Laura expressed helplessness, smiling, "Your daddy is also incredible, but I don’t like him."

Since the truth was revealed, she decided to make it clear, lest Twinkle tells everyone she’s in a relationship with his daddy, which would cause misunderstandings.

Her tone was gentle and soft, making it easier for the child to accept, and coupled with the previous setup, Justin Hawthorne mostly accepted the fact that his sister doesn’t like daddy...

He lowered his little head and furrowed his brows in thought: What could be done to make sister like daddy?

So distressed!

Daddy is really weak! He even needs his son to worry about chasing a girl, sigh...

Laura lovingly stroked Twinkle’s head, "Sister loves Twinkle the most, and that will never change."

Justin Hawthorne eagerly extended his little hand to pinky swear, "Pinky swear, hang on, a hundred years without change!"

Laura’s eyes overflowed with warmth, "Mm!"

Seeing this scene, Mary’s eyes were somewhat moist; she had watched Twinkle grow up and he had never shown such intense affection towards any woman. The saying "blood is thicker than water" was surely true!

Serena Jennings came to Sunstone Hospital today for a 4D ultrasound but couldn’t do it without an appointment.

"Miss Jennings, I’m really sorry, the 4D ultrasound requires advance booking, since you didn’t follow the procedure, our hospital really can’t do it."

"I, Serena Jennings, still need an appointment? Do you know who I am?"

"Miss Jennings, I’m really sorry..."

"Call your director here, I’ll talk to him personally!"

Serena Jennings had an air of authority, implying her word was final.

But it was useless; the nurse didn’t get intimidated and firmly adhered to the rules, refusing to give her special treatment.

Jasper Hawthorne quietly approached his wife with a grim face, "Serena, can’t we just go to the previous hospital? We have a card there, why come here?"

Serena Jennings shot her husband a glance, seemingly disdainful of his cowardice, "Don’t you know Sunstone Hospital is the best in Aethelburg? For such an important matter as a 4D ultrasound, I definitely want to come here."

Her tone was decisive, leaving no room for negotiation.
