Goodbye, Ex-husband! I'm Pregnant with Your Uncle's Child!-Chapter 78 - Falling a Bit in Love with You

Grace Land hesitated for a moment, then thought about it and said, “Three billion, and I’ll sell you the negative.”

Stranger: “Deal.”

Miles Knight showed the phone to Julia Land, “Miss Land.”

Miles Knight was one of Julia Land’s bodyguards.

He was also the bodyguard that James Thompson assigned to her after she had the car accident.

Julia Land read the message, then handed the phone back, “Thank you.

Transfer her three billion and please go retrieve the negative for me.”

She took a detour just to get the negative back first.

If she had agreed to swap for the photos with seventy billion from the beginning, Miss Land would not have given her the negative.

Julia Land now had a concern, which was how many copies of those photos Miss Grace Land had printed out.

Miles Knight nodded and left.

Julia Land drove to the cemetery.

She sat cross-legged on the ground, opened her bag, and took out some snacks to lay in front of the tombstone.

She had her bodyguard distract the person Noah Quarter sent to tail her and came here alone.

“Little Violet, I’m sorry,” Julia Land tore open a bag of chips, ate one, and then placed another in front of the tombstone, “Should I just be more direct and take Arabella Shaw with me when I go?”

“I know if you were still here, you’d definitely call me an idiot for not clinging to life while I can.”

“You saved my life.”

Julia Land sighed, not knowing what sort of uncertainty would arise if the orphanage photos were leaked.

She put down the chips, pulled out the negative she had exchanged with Grace Land, and then took out a lighter.

With a press of the lighter, a flame arose.

The negative began to burn.

At this time, there would be no one else visiting the cemetery.

Quiet and deserted.

Julia Land sat there silently, her gaze lowered, eating chips, and not saying another word.

The sky gradually darkened.

Eventually, Julia Land stood up, her voice hoarse and gentle, “I’m leaving, I’ll come to see you again next time.”

She took a deep look at the tombstone, turned around, and left the cemetery.

Julia Land left the cemetery and drove straight to the police station.

She walked in with a determination to march forward.

“I want to file a report.”

Julia Land handed over a voice recorder and her photo at the age of ten to the officer responsible for taking her statement.

“My mother, Miss Grace Land, is blackmailing and extorting me with this photo.”

The officer quickly flipped to the back of the photo and read the words written there, “Your daughter tastes very good.”

“I was sent to the orphanage by my mother at the age of eight, and at ten, the old director was giving me strange looks.

At eleven, the old director tried to assault me, but he didn’t succeed.”

The officer taking her statement waited for Julia Land to finish before asking, “What about the old director?”

Julia Land originally did not want to file a report, and it was also because of the old director’s matter.

She recalled the past and said, “The old director is dead, a new director came to the orphanage, and there is one more thing, if it leaks out that I said this, I will die horribly.”

Julia Land came here today intending to reveal another matter.

“That orphanage…

secretly functions as an organ storage facility.”

Occasionally, some kids would be adopted by foster parents, and on the surface, the orphanage did not obstruct this.

If Grace Land hadn’t had a whim to take her out of the orphanage,

she and Little Violet’s fate would have been to wait to be sent off to be toyed with until broken, and then to lie on the operating table.

Her mother had pushed her into the fiery pit of the orphanage, pulled her back up, and now was preparing to push her into another fiery pit.

Julia Land didn’t know how to describe her feelings.

After she had finished giving her statement to the police, as she walked out of the station, she got into the car, her body still breaking out in a cold sweat.

Her lips were pale.

Sooner or later, those people would know it was she who had called the cops.

When she had left the orphanage back then, Julia Land and Violet had naively thought about going to the police.

Because of one thing, they had been too scared to do so.

The methods of those people were too cruel.

In their eyes, human lives were merely symbols of money.

Julia Land started the car, she bit her red lips, not wanting to continue recalling those painful events.

**

Grace Land had sold Julia Land’s photos and negatives.

She ended up with 320 million.

As she entered the house and saw Cory Langston, she didn’t know how to explain for a moment.

“When did she say she would transfer the money?” Cory Langston asked with a frown.

Grace Land’s expression stiffened for a moment before she said with an ugly look, “Honey, I’m sorry, I was tricked by her.”

Cory Langston’s chest heaved with anger.

He said coldly, “So, Julia Land won’t be giving us seven billion, and the only way now is to have Stella marry Mr.

Wang and get a loan temporarily.”

Stella marrying Mr.

Wang, an old man, was also just to ensure a successful loan.

Stella had happily gone to school today, not yet aware of this change.

Grace Land had no way to object.

Before long, a maid walked in with a slightly panicked look.

“Madam, there is a police officer at the door looking for you.”

Grace Land’s face was cold, and she cursed through gritted teeth, “Is it Julia Land causing trouble again?”

The police officer had already walked into the living room.

“Ms.

Grace Land, please come with us to the station.”

Grace Land stood up, greeted them with a smile, and said, “Officers, I have already cut off relations with Julia Land.

Whatever trouble she’s gotten into outside, whatever trouble she’s caused, it has nothing to do with me.”

The two officers found Grace Land’s words rather strange.

One of the officers said sternly, “Julia Land has filed a police report, accusing you of threatening extortion.

Please come with us.”

“What?” Grace Land’s voice suddenly became shrill, “She actually called the police.”

She dared!

Cory Langston’s expression had already become somewhat stiff, “Officer, could there be some misunderstanding?”

“Misunderstanding or not, Ms.

Grace Land will have to go to the station to give a statement.”

Grace Land dialed Julia Land’s mobile number, but no one answered.

**

Sincere Heart Community Building.

Julia Land was doing a split as part of her exercise, bending over and marking a section of the criminal law book on her mat with a red pen.

[For extortion of a particularly huge amount, the punishment is imprisonment for over 10 years]

Sophia Hart walked over in her slippers and sat down in front of Julia, “Sister Land, why are you suddenly reading a criminal law book?”

Julia closed the book and put down the pen, her expression like that of the Big Bad Wolf ready to lure in the little prey.

“Learning is a never-ending process, Sophia.

Would you like to study together?

To enrich our minds?”

Sophia immediately stood up, “Ah!

I just remembered, I have something else to do.”

Julia smiled.

Her phone vibrated again, this time it wasn’t a call from Grace, but from James Thompson.

“Little Julia,” James Thompson spoke in a lowered voice, almost like the way he would whisper in her ear at night, “I have always been behind you.”

Miles Knight was James Thompson’s man, and Julia hadn’t thought to hide it from him.

On the other end of the call, James Thompson explained in a deep voice, “I have not inquired about the specifics, and Miles Knight hasn’t told me.”

Julia smiled, knowing he wouldn’t forcefully interfere with her affairs.

She whispered, “Mr.

Thompson, I’ve found myself a little bit in love with you.”

Upon hearing this, James Thompson awkwardly shifted from his left leg to his right, crossing his legs.
