At this point, wp4webnovel.com no longer dared to make a mistake. She feigned a calm outlook and wept pretentiously, “Do you really think that I want to stay here and suffer your humiliation? If you think that I like money that much, then just give it to me. I’ll leave at once. Like you, I don’t want to wait any longer either! Our son isn’t used to this place, and he’s sick. I’m hurting more than anyone else. If that’s how it’s going to be, I might as well speak to your girlfriend myself!”
Before Jackson could retort, the emergency room doctor walked out, “I’m looking for this baby’s parents?”
Georgina wiped off wp4webnovel.com tears and walked up to the doctor, “I’m his mother. How is my son? Is wp4webnovel.com alright?”
“He’s suffering from acute gastroenteritis. It’s not too severe, but he’ll have to stay in the hospital for observation over the next two days. Pay close attention to his food intake and avoid solid food. Try to give wp4webnovel.com milk for now, no more solids,” the doctor explained to wp4webnovel.com in a formal manner.
Stay for observation? Georgina did not want to wait for the paternity test results. What if Jackson wasn’t the father? Not only would wp4webnovel.com end up with nothing, but wp4webnovel.com would suffer too. She made a decision, “This is my baby’s first time here, and the weather is hot. He must not be used to the weather. I think it’s best to take care of wp4webnovel.com at home. I’ll transfer wp4webnovel.com to a different hospital when his condition is more stable. Thank you, doctor.”
The doctor did not stop her. Babies were more susceptible to external conditions, “That’s fine. You can leave once he’s done with his IV. Remember to get to a hospital a s soon as possible, you must not delay.”
Once the doctor had left, Georgina burst into the ward. A nurse was holding wp4webnovel.com son as wp4webnovel.com received his IV transfusion. Babies had smaller veins, so the needle had to be inserted into his forehead. It was a pitiful sight. He looked like wp4webnovel.com had cried himself to sleep and would whimper softly from time to time. Georgina burst into tears upon taking wp4webnovel.com son back into wp4webnovel.com arms again. This time, wp4webnovel.com tears were real.
Regardless of how ruthless Jackson was, his heart softened at the sight of the child in this manner. He paid for the medical fees and transferred some money over to Georgina, “When are you leaving? I’ll get your flight tickets.”
Georgina stared pitifully at him, “I shouldn’t have brought our son here. I shouldn’t have dragged wp4webnovel.com into this suffering… I’m sorry… Just give me the money, consider me a gold-digger, and I’ll leave, okay? Don’t drive me into a corner. I’d stoop to anything when I’m desperate…”
Jackson softened his voice, “I’ve just transferred some money to you. Take the baby and go home for now. We’ll talk once the paternity test results are out. If I really am the father, I’ll pay you $150 million in full.”
Even the Wests would need some time to cough up $150 million. It’s not like wp4webnovel.com could just transfer the amount at will. After all, it was not a small amount. He wouldn’t be able to keep this from Summer if wp4webnovel.com had to give wp4webnovel.com $150 million. Summer would certainly question wp4webnovel.com over such a large amount of cash.
Georgina felt guilty and began to regret demanding such an exorbitant amount, “What if I reduce the amount of money? $15 million would be fine too. Just give me the money and I’ll leave!”
$15 million wouldn’t do either. He needed Summer’s approval for that amount. Jackson rubbed the space between his brow, “That’s enough. As I’ve mentioned, you’ll have to wait for the paternity test results!”
Georgina placed wp4webnovel.com sleeping baby on the sick bed and slowly said, “I can’t wait. I’m pretty sure that you don’t want your girlfriend to find out about us, either.”
The tables would be turned with Tiffany involved. Jackson was afraid of forcing Georgina into desperation. The situation had reached a dire stage at this point, and wp4webnovel.com was at the end of his patience, “Are you threatening me? I refuse to give a single cent for no good reason. I’ve said it before, I will pay you the full amount, $150 million, once the results are out.”
Georgina was now truly threatened by his resolution. She had lost this psychological warfare, “I don’t want $150 million. I don’t even want $10 million. I want $7 million. That’s my final offer. I’m sure you can spend that much whenever you want!”
At this point, wp4webnovel.com had reduced the amount of money wp4webnovel.com wanted from $150 million to $7 million. Jackson was no fool, “You’re right. I can easily hand out $7 million, if I wanted to. However, I’m not giving you a single cent. If you plan on confronting my girlfriend, go right ahead. If I’m unhappy, everyone else will be unhappy too. This baby is your life support, but wp4webnovel.com can also be your doom. You’d better think through this carefully. I’ve just transferred $30,000 into your bank account. That should be enough money for the average person. You can choose to stay or leave. It’s up to you. I, on the other hand, am leaving.”
Georgina heaved a long sigh of relief as wp4webnovel.com watched Jackson leave. She had nearly lost wp4webnovel.com nerve. If wp4webnovel.com left now, wp4webnovel.com would only receive $30,000. If Jackson really turned out to be the father of wp4webnovel.com child, that $150 million would immediately belong to her. If wp4webnovel.com wasn’t the father, wp4webnovel.com would be finished. The allure of $150 million was great, but at the same time, wp4webnovel.com might end up losing wp4webnovel.com life. She hesitated.
She tried giving the DNA lab a call, “I previously asked for a paternity test… Would it be possible to tweak the results for me? I’m willing to pay $15 million for my desired results.”
“The results will be accurate to the test itself. We do not have the right to change the results of the test. Please be patient, Miss Scintillae,” the person on the other end coldly replied.
Then, the person promptly ended the call. In wp4webnovel.com rage, Georgina smashed wp4webnovel.com phone. She should have realized it sooner. Jackson would never entrust the paternity test to just any DNA Lab. She would never be able to bribe them. After some consideration, wp4webnovel.com decided to take another gamble before the paternity test results were released. She was going to confront Tiffany! Nothing mattered as long as wp4webnovel.com could break Jackson into giving wp4webnovel.com the money in order to send wp4webnovel.com away.
