91.0 % Chapter 149 Chapter 149 As Anthony had started speaking , he didnt intend to keep anything from me anymore .
That night , it is not only you who drank that thing , but many others fell victim to it as well , including Ella .
At that time , she … I was already aware of this incident and remained silent , listening quietly .
Anthony continued , Unfortunately , she was unlucky .
Feeling unwell , she went to rest in our guest room .
However , Gerald came to pick Elena up and mistakenly ended up with her .
This revelation surprised me .
I had no idea about this .
Anthony seemed somewhat helpless as he continued , I only found out the next day .
My mother had already noticed that Ella was acting strange .
She wanted us to be together , so she allowed Ella to stay our guest room .
She asked me to bring her the antidote , but I was unaware of anything , so I asked Gerald to help deliver it .
Ella mistook Gerald for me .
I knew that Ella had feelings for Anthony , but I never expected that Ella would mistake Gerald for him .
It was truly a case of having high aims but ended up in total failure .
I , who doesnt have the habit of prying into others privacy , couldnt help but ask , What does this have to do with Bella ? Ella is pregnant .
As you know , it only takes seven days to confirm pregnancy .

Moreover , many people already knew about it .
To protect Ellas reputation , the Rhodes Family wants Gerald to marry her .
However , Gerald has someone else in mind .
Anthony answered truthfully .
Anthony looked at me .
Suddenly , I remembered Victorias words from before , stating that Bella is getting married and that I should help her get into Strakovski Jewelry as her wedding gift.
I , somewhat dazed , asked , mean Gerald wants to marry Bella ? I never expected that after Victorias scheme to get me and Gerald together failed , Bella would now want to marry him .
Anthony nodded helplessly , Thats right .
Ellas incident happened in our family , so even if we cannot form a marriage alliance with give them an explanation .
Thats why I investigated Gerald and found out that he was already the Rhodes Family , we still need involved with Bella .
Initially , Bella might have been using him .
Anthony looked at me and continued , I discovered this only in the last two days .
During the incident when you saved me in the alley , it was Geralds people trying to get back at me .
Gerald had a relationship with Bella , and he agreed to help her punish me .
However , something must have changed , as Gerald unexpectedly fell for Bella and is now determined to marry her .
I was surprised by the revelation that Bella had sought revenge through Gerald .
My face showed anger , Shes truly wicked .
You were just speaking the truth as a doctor .
How could she … Anthony smiled , seemingly unfazed by the matter .
Then , he changed the subject , Gerald does want to marry Bella , but he messed things up when he took advantage of Ella that night .
Logically speaking , the Rhodes Familys influence should be stronger than the Lopez Familys .
Marrying Ella would have more benefits than marrying Bella .
However , I heard that the Lopez Family seems to have formed some connections with Lukas .
I heard that Strakovski sued Bella , but she still managed to get into Strakovski .
91.4 % Chapter 149 My heart skipped a beat .
So thats how it is .
I had wondered why Victoria had been urging me and trying to help Bella get into Strakovski .
The key was probably in this matter .
Anthony didnt notice my unusual behavior and continued , If Bella can still get into Strakovski under such circumstances , it means her connections are indeed quite strong .
Therefore , although the Rhodes Family demands an explanation from Gerald , the Hughes Family is still hesitant .
They are treating Geralds marriage as if they were picking and choosing items to buy , seeking to maximize their benefits .
I find it quite puzzling .
How did the Lopez Family manage to connect with Strakovski ? As far as I know , aside from you , no one else from the Lopez Family works at Strakovski Jewelry .
I felt somewhat embarrassed .
Anthony didnt know about my relationship with Lukas , but the Lopez Family knew .
They must have made some promises to the Hughes Family to have the courage to refuse the Rhodes Family .
I could even imagine that when Victoria said she would give me the letter after Bella entered Strakovski , she was simply deceiving me .
I suspected that after Gerald and Bella got married , Victoria still wanted to use me to connect the Lopez Family with Strakovski Jewelry .
I bit my lip , forgetting about my injured foot , and subconsciously tried to stand up .
Dr.
Rivers , actually … I had just spoken a few words when the pain caused me to grimace and sit back down on the hospital bed .
Anthony quickly bent down , carefully inspecting my ankle , and expertly applied some ointment .
Ill apply some ointment for you ; it wont hurt as much .
As he applied the ointment , he asked with a concerned expression , Are you okay ? How did you injure your ankle ? Third person P.O.V.
Outside the door , Lukas had just arrived at the entrance and saw Anthony carefully applying ointment to Skylars ankle .
Earlier , he and Cole had encountered Ava downstairs .
Ava told Cole about their injuries , so Lukas asked for Skylars whereabouts and came up .
However , he didnt expect to witness this scene .
But Anthony was a doctor , so this sight should have been completely normal .
However , Lukas felt an uncomfortable pang in his chest .
He was about to enter the room when he heard Skylar speak .
My injury actually has something to do with what you just mentioned .
She said .
Lukas hesitated and held back from going inside .
He was certain that if he entered now , Skylar wouldnt speak the truth .
He silently stood at the door , listening intently .
