Essie called Ingrid and asked her out for an afternoon tea.
Essie ordered light green tea for her. Pregnant people were not fit to drink thick tea and black tea.
Ingrid looked down at the tea in her cup, absent-minded and sad. She was still thinking about what
Elizabeth said yesterday, and was still in shock.
Noticing that, Essie smiled and said, "Sister in law, you look unhappy. Is there anything bothering you?"
"No... Nothing." Ingrid shook her head with a gleam in her eyes.
Essie patted her on the hand and said, "Sister in law, you've married to a foreign country and your
mother and your family are not around. We're your family. Don't take it to heart. Maybe I can help. If my
brother dares to bully you, I will help you punish him."
"No, Vinton didn't bully me. It is... I'm afraid that I will have a daughter, which will make my mother-in-
law and family unhappy," said Ingrid.
"Sister in law, don't put too much pressure on yourself. If your first baby is a daughter, maybe the
second baby will be a son. It doesn't matter. Let nature take its course," Essie comforted.
"But what if my mother-in-law doesn't like it to be a daughter and asks me to abort her?" Ingrid said in a
trembling voice.
Startled, Essie asked, "Did she say that?"
Ingrid pressed her lips and hesitated for a while before saying, "Yesterday, I happened to pass by the
study and heard the conversation between my mother-in-law and Vinton. My mother-in-law said that if I
were to do the B Ultrasound and found that I was pregnant with a daughter, I would just abort it and
don't bother giving birth to her."
"Do my brother agree?" Essie was shocked. 'Is Elizabeth crazy? She even doesn't let go of her
granddaughter.'
"Vinton didn't agree, but I'm afraid that if my mother-in-law makes a fuss, he has no choice but to
compromise," Ingrid said worriedly.
"I believe my brother won't compromise on this kind of thing." Essie said in a firm tone. "I'm afraid that
Elizabeth will do something to hurt your child secretly. She's good at doing this."
"What will she do?" Ingrid's face turned pale.
"It's easy to get rid of a person's child. She can do it on food or find someone to do it. In the past, in
order to prevent my mother from having one more baby, she bribed the doctor to perform a legation
operation for her secretly when my mother gave birth to me. Later, when I was pregnant, she sent
people to hurt me. Fortunately, my child was lucky enough, so her plan failed," said Essie in a low
voice.
A chill spread from Ingrid's spine, making her terrified.
"How could she be so vicious and terrible?"
"Some people are born cruel and merciless. They will do anything to achieve their goals. What you can
do is to keep an eye on her and guard against her." Essie sighed.
"How? I'm with her every day. I won't know if she really drugged me," Ingrid said in a trembling voice.
"Sister in law, don't have to think too much. If the B Ultrasound result is a boy, you don't have to worry
about it. If it's a girl, you can discuss with my brother about moving out. The further away you are from
Elizabeth, the safer you will be," suggested Essie.
Ingrid nodded. She prayed that the baby in her belly would be a boy so that he could be saved from a
terrible conspiracy and disaster.
Essie picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea. If she guessed right, Elizabeth wanted to
use Ingrid's baby as a bargaining chip. She should have thought of ten percent of Mrs. Vicki's shares.
After giving birth to her great grandson, the old lady was so happy that she might give the ten percent
of the shares to her great grandson as a gift.
"I didn't expect this family to be so complicated."
"I have no choice." Essie shrugged.
"If she is really a daughter, I will try my best to protect her and never let anyone hurt her," Ingrid said
firmly, clenching her fists.
Looking at her, Essie felt relieved. It seemed that she was different from her father, Landen. She was
innocent and frank.
In the Rong Mansion, uncle Li was investigating all the servants and workers again with several
stewards and security department. Make sure that there are no spies coming in.
The security department had three sets of the most advanced lie detector. They had to apply them to
all the employees and fire them if they couldn't pass.
Mili and Dot were quite interested in the lie detector. They sat aside and looked at the professional
security guards to ask the servants.
"The security guard's questions will cause different mental stimulation to the tested person. And these
stimulation would trigger different physiological reactions. Which caused a series of physiological
factors. These are the principles of the lie detector."
"When a person is lying, there will be changes in his or her myoelectric, meridians, pulse, blood
pressure, breath, heartbeat, brain waves, voice, pupils, etc. The lie detector can track and measure the
changes of these factors, forming a record map. After analyzing the changes in the map, we can
determine whether the person who is tested has honestly answered these questions or is lying,"
Dot explained seriously like an expert.
Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Mili smiled and said, "As a future criminal psychologist, my goal
is to accurately judge whether the criminal is telling the truth or not without the help of a lie detector."
"Baby, your life plan should be to inherit my career. As a fashion designer, you should take over the
Summer 100 Degree. The rest are just side ocupations, okay?" said Essie, stroking her head. Zac
would never allow his precious daughter to deal with some criminals and mental illnesses all day long.
"Everyone has her own ambitions. You can't force me to do something I don't want to do." Mili pouted.
"You used to love designing clothes, didn't you? The clothes on your Barbie dolls are all designed by
you," asked Essie.
"Mommy, those are all hobbies, not ambitions. And there is no challenge to make clothes." Mili pursed
her lips.
Essie was a little embarrassed. She looked down upon her career.
"Honey, it's not easy to design clothes that can attract the public's attention. There were many people
engaged in fashion design in the world, but most of them were tailoring. Only a few of them had
reached the top of the fashion Pyramid. If you don't think it's a challenge to be a fashion designer, you
can design a prominant work first and let me have a look. If you can't do it, you can learn it. Don't try to
mess up the criminal psychology."
Mili puffed up two cheeks. It seemed that her Mommy was angry.
Dot looked at her sympathetically. It seemed that it was not easy for his sister to change her job.
"Mommy, you still have Dawny. Just let him inherit your career. Why do you have to force me? You
have arranged for Dot to inherit the Rong family, brother Rabi to inherit the Emperor, and I to inherit the
Summer 100 Degree. What about Dawny? What does he want to inherit?" Mili immediately shifted the
contradiction.
Hearing that, Essie was shocked. She had never arranged a future for her youngest son.
At this time, Dot said, "In fact, I think that Dawny can take over the business of the Rong family. My
ambition is not in business. So you can leave the property of the Rong family to Dawny."
Mili was displeased to hear that. Obviously, he was trying to steal her brother from her.
"Dot should inherit mommy's career and be a fashion designer." She stared at Dot with her hands on
her hips.
"No, no, no, he should inherit Rong's Group." Dot shook his finger.
"Be a fashion designer," Mili argued.
"Inherit Rong's Group." Dot didn't show any weakness.
Essie was in a mess. She felt helpless.
"Honey, since you don't want to accept the life plan that your daddy and I arranged for you. You can
ask your brother to replace you. If Dawny is interested in fashion in the future, he can replace Mili, and
if he has business talent, he can replace Dot." Essie came up with a compromise idea.
Only one of the two could escape successfully.
Mili and Dot looked at each other, and their eyes flashed a secret light. Interest could be cultivated, and
they had to quickly cultivate the interest of Dawny.
In an abandoned warehouse in the suburb.
"The Rong Mansion is recruiting people recently. Didn't I tell you the news?" After receiving the news
that they wanted to meet again, Leila was a little reluctant and began to question Maxim.
"I know. As soon as I heard that the Rong Mansion is recruiting people, I arranged several strangers to
go there. However, they didn't expect that the Rong Mansion was so well guarded. In addition to the
special review, they also used a lie detector. Those people didn't get a few questions, and the only one
who insisted to the end failed in front of the lie detector."
"It has nothing to do with me. I have no choice."
"Aren't you Walt's wife? Nominally, you are the young hostess of the Rong Mansion. It shouldn't be
difficult to arrange someone in."
"You think too simply about the Rong Mansion. All the servants' affairs are handled by the
housekeeper, uncle Li. No one else can interfere or speak at all."
"Is there no way?"
"I have no choice."
"Can we break through from uncle Li, such as bribing or seducing..."
Maxim deliberately glanced at Leila's face and fixed his eyes on her chest. He believed that Leila was
confident and good at it.
"You are crazy. Uncle Li is famous for his loyalty to Albert. He is cold and selfless."
"Do you really have no chance?"
"I have no choice."
"Then I have no choice but to ask you to do it yourself. Our boss said that if you can't figure out what
happened in the ghost yard, there is no need for you to continue to stay in the Rong Mansion."
Maxim gave Leila an ultimatum. 'What a bitch! She always ignores my orders and looks lofty, ' thought
him. Although she was nominally under his control, his boss trusted her very much. He couldn't do
anything to her. He didn't know if she had an affair with his boss.
