Chapter 1457: The Truth About the Second Child

On the other side, Arlo Seys fulfilled his promise to Steven Cooper by finding experts worldwide to treat his illness, with all medical and nursing expenses covered by the Seys Family.

The entire upper-class society of City C lamented the once-promising couple, Steven and Nicole. Now, one has passed away, and the other remains a comatose state, making people sigh at the unpredictability of fate and misfortune.

Nevertheless, the Seys Family’s continuous support for the Cooper Family deterred some political figures who wished to see the Coopers mocked, from easily offending them.

Langdon Seal and Jorge Saxton watched with concern as Jose Floyd refused food and drink for days, but no amount of persuasion worked.

Finally, Langdon Seal approached the dazed Jose Floyd, handing him a bowl of soup prepared by the servants, and spoke in a deep tone: "Drink it, and I’ll tell you something about Nicole."

Jose Floyd’s gaze remained on Nicole’s belongings in his hand, not shifting at all.

Langdon Seal’s lips pressed together; his voice grew even lower: "Nicole’s second child wasn’t lost naturally, Jose..."

For the first time, Jose Floyd’s cold stare fell on Langdon Seal without warmth. With pale lips, he uttered coldly, "What are you saying...?"

Langdon Seal and Jorge Saxton finally heard Jose Floyd speak after these days, feeling slightly relieved.

Langdon Seal internally chuckled bitterly, knowing that after Nicole’s incident, nothing could really capture Jose’s attention anymore.

Langdon Seal paused for a moment, moving the soup closer to Jose Floyd, "Drink it, and I’ll tell you how your second child was lost."

"Langdon Seal, you better not be deceiving me! Otherwise, I will not let you off!" Jose Floyd said coldly, before taking the soup from Langdon Seal’s hand and gulping it down in one go.

Jorge Saxton handed over a bottle of mineral water, "Finish it. You haven’t eaten or drunk for days. Perhaps you’ll faint before Langdon finishes telling you."

Jose Floyd’s brows remained icy, but he took the water from Jorge Saxton and drank more than half at once, looking coldly at the two men before him, "You can speak now!"

Langdon Seal sat beside Jose Floyd, observing Nicole’s belongings in his hand silently for a while. A trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, along with complex emotions.

After a long pause, Langdon Seal finally spoke slowly and gravely: "Actually, Nicole didn’t terminate the pregnancy, but the child was lost due to external factors."

Jose Floyd clasped the item in his hand tightly, his throat constricted uncomfortably, his deep red eyes fixed on Langdon Seal: "What are you saying? You said she didn’t abort the child... But the medical records and everything at the time proved she didn’t want the child, which caused our child to be lost like that..."

Jorge Saxton’s expression was somber, watching Jose Floyd and opening his lips: "What do you mean by external factors? Why was the child lost? If Nicole didn’t terminate the pregnancy, did someone deliberately harm the child?"

Who would have the audacity to harm Nicole and Jose’s child?

Langdon Seal looked at Jose Floyd’s indifferent expression, the coldness in his eyes causing some inner conflict. Once this truth is revealed, how will Jose treat their mother?

Langdon Seal hesitated for a long time without speaking. His hesitation and reluctance made Jose Floyd’s gaze even colder, devoid of emotion.

In his mind, Nicole’s words before her death echoed.

"Do you know what benefits saffron has? Jose Floyd, tell me, or else don’t speak of returning to Italy with you; I’ll hate you for this lifetime..."
