Briar quickly explained, �No, that�s not true. I asked the doctors there, and they told me something different��

�She�s not pregnant?�

Francine breathed a sigh of relief because her family did not have to be humiliated.

�But why did she visit the gynecologist if she�s not pregnant?�

�Well, I can�t talk about this because I�m afraid that Stefan might get upset��

Briar looked at Stefan carefully and spoke pretentiously.

Stefan�s handsome face was as hard as a stone. �Go on!� he said coldly.

�Umm� I�ll tell you the truth then��

Briar was very satisfied with his reaction, so she continued eagerly, �I didn�t tell you right away after seeing the photograph because I feared a misunderstanding. So, I went to see their attending doctor to get the truth. The doctor told me she wasn�t pregnant, though she was ready to have Mr. Osborne�s child. They got a lot of vitamin B�

�And� It looks like she can�t get pregnant easily. If a natural pregnancy fails, they may try getting a test-tube baby.�

Of course, Briar made those things up.

She indeed found the attending doctor who was responsible for Renee and Liam, but the other party denied that he had attended to them. She had nothing useful that they wanted.

Hence, she took the chance to make the situation worse just to slander Renee. Besides, she had even bribed her attending doctor.

Even if Stefan sent people there to investigate, he might get the same answer.

�Humph, I knew it! There must be something wrong with this jinx, and she can�t get pregnant. Luckily, Stef was smart enough to divorce her in time��

Francine felt that her family had escaped from a disaster. As she gloated at the misfortune of others, she said, �Now it�s the Osborne family�s turn to be unlucky. If Geronimo learns that his dearest son has found a sterile woman, he may be greatly infuriated!�

Stefan remained silent all that while, but his handsome face was horribly gloomy.

Seeing that, Francine became upset. �Stef, why are you looking at it in such a way? Shouldn�t you be happy? Why do I feel like you can�t accept it?

�She even claimed you got bitten by a poisonous snake just to save her. Don�t tell me that you�ve feelings for her now. Don�t be fooled!�

Stefan clenched his fists, but there wasn�t so much as a single twitch of emotion on his gorgeous face. �Never!� he hissed cruelly with his thin lips slightly parted. JrNovels.com
