Chapter 90 Chapter 90 Teresa’s frown deepened. “You are telling me that you are pregnant with my son’s child?” she questioned.
“| have never been with another man aside from Daniel,” Charlotte stated, tears welling up in her eyes for some reason, which immediately irritated Teresa. Why was she crying? What the hell was wrong with this woman? Weren’t they just talking!?
“This is something that Daniel and |... | know we made a mistake, we committed a grave sin against my sister Sofia, but |—” Charlotte lowered her gaze again.
“That child cannot exist,” Teresa said calmly. “There are various methods. | can immediately call someone-” “| do not intend to kill my child.”
“What?” Teresa arched an eyebrow, wondering if she had heard correctly. Was the woman actually thinking of keeping the child? “Wouldn’t this ruin your career?” Teresa asked. “Daniel would not marry you. This would only ruin your future. This would prove that you and my son indeed have an affair. To think that you would actually keep it.”
Charlotte lifted her gaze back to Teresa. “How could a grandmother suggest something that horrendous?”
“It is only practical. Right now, my son has issues that he needs to face on his own. He is not fit to become a father. | do not want you expending more things on him or affecting his recovery. So... it is best that you terminate this pregnancy as early as now.”
“And if | say no?” Charlotte asked.
Teresa smirked. “It seems that you have misinterpreted something...,” she smiled. “That was not a question nor was | asking for your permission. That was... an order.”
Charlotte stared at the woman in disbelief. She never expected the Beaumont Family to be this ruthless! To think that they would actually try to kill their own blood?
When she heard about what happened to her father, the first thing that she did was call Daniel. The two of them had stopped communicating when she left the US. However, she was desperate for his help.

Sadly, Daniel seemed to have blocked her or changed his number. Luckily, the results of her test finally came back positive. It turns out that the procedure that she did immediately bore some positive results.
The physician told her that the likelihood of her becoming pregnant after one procedure was quite high simply because of her lifestyle and health. She never thought that it would actually happen in a month!
The physician advised her to rest and to take some time off after the result. But how could she do something like that when her father was about to be incriminated by something that he didn’t do?
Charlotte was convinced that Sofia framed her father just to get back at her. So, she came back and immediately confronted Sofia.
Sadly, she quickly realized how wrong she was. The Sofia that she knew was no longer there. She had changed! Her helplessness took her to this place.
As someone who was carrying the blood and flesh of the Beaumont Family, she expected them to welcome her. Sadly... she was wrong.
“How could you do that to your own blood?” Charlotte asked, her face already turned red from her anger.
“Blood...” Teresa only smirked before she elegantly raised her teacup and took a sip. She then savored her tea before she added. “What you currently have is but blood. A fist of blood.”
“You-” Charlotte gritted her teeth. It was not actually her intention to announce this pregnancy prematurely. She was planning to keep this a secret for a few more weeks, but she truly had no other choice. She suddenly got up. “Since the Beaumont Family refuses to accept my child, then | can only-”
“Sieve her...” Teresa said. “What-” Before Charlotte could say another word, two guards
approached her and held both of her arms. “What are you doing!? Let me go! Let me go!” She tried her best to push them away, but the two men were quite strong. “I said let me go!”
“Foolish...” Teresa said. Despite the commotion, she remained seated, a smile apparent on her face. “Did you really think that we would welcome you with open arms?” she snorted, her face arrogant. “You are thinking

too much of yourself. Aren’t you just a starlet? An entertainer? You perform for money, no? Like a clown... but better looking.” “You-”
“So, please... don’t even think that you can dirty the blood of the Beaumont Family. That will never happen.”
“You-You are ruthless!” She had heard about Teresa before. They had met at a few events in the past. On the outside, the woman seemed very charismatic, soft-spoken, and kind. She had many charities and was well known for her honest behavior.
Who would have thought that behind all this... behind everything was a ruthless woman that would hurt her own grandchild!? “Keep her to the guest room and—* “Go on!” Charlotte said. “If you think you can handle what is going to happen next, then go on.”
“Oh?” Teresa arched an eyebrow. She pursed her lips and stared at Charlotte’s resolute expression. “The little lamb dares to threaten a wolf... in a wolf's den? How comical.”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“| already asked someone to release the news of my pregnancy to the media. | also included proof of my relationship with your son. If | disappear... they would know it was the Beaumont Family.” Charlotte said
“So?” “You.” “So, your fans will think that the Beaumont Family took care of you, and then... what is going to happen next?”
Charlotte stared at the woman in disbelief. Just- just what kind of person was Teresa Beaumont? She was no longer the kind mother-in-law that Charlotte always dreamed of having. Right now, she was but a beast- a ruthless one!
“Do you think your disappearance will matter?” Teresa smirked. “Your fans will stop talking about you after a month. They would probably forget about you after a year or two. Isn’t that sad?”
Charlotte glared at Teresa. She knew that the woman was right- sadly.
“Then what If | tell you that | included something that would ruin your

son?” Charlotte asked.
“Oh?”
“Daniel wanted to marry Sofia because he wanted her shares. He wanted to fight against the tiger of the Beaumont Family- Alexander Beaumont. Do you think he will take this lightly?”
Hearing this, Teresa immediately narrowed her eyes.
“You can check my phone. A timer was in there... if | do not get out of this place thirty minutes after you arrive... then my people will release everything to the masses. If you think that | still care about my reputation... you are wrong. | already have enough savings to last me and my child a lifetime. My father might probably go to jail, and Sofia will push me out of this country. | don’t care if the people will hate me, but what if Alexander knows that his younger brother is trying to screw him?”
Seeing Teresa’s reaction, Charlotte chuckled. “Right... | heard Alexander is the real person in charge of the Beaumont Empire. Daniel told me that even their father would not dare fight against Alexander. He also told me that the reason Alexander hated him was because of a mistake that he made in the past. He knew that you poisoned Alexander’s mother and—”
“Enough!” Teresa hissed, her face already so red it looked like she was about to explode. “Enough of this!” 4/5
