I'm Glad We Met After Marriage Chapter 451
So, I asked, “How does it feel to see the person you loved having a baby with another man? It must hurt a lot, right?”He looked at me calmly. “What? Am I that obvious?”“Yeah.” I looked at him. “You don’t show it on the outside, but I can tell that your heart is breaking.”“You have great eyesight now. You can even see right through me.” He smiled. Then, he reached out and lightly touched my eyes.His fingers were warm, but I was not joking.Ever since Cecilia betrayed him, I had wanted to know how he felt. He must have been hurt, right? He once loved her deeply.I moved his hand away and gazed into his calm eyes.“Honestly, I stopped loving Cecilia three years ago,” he said softly.“Hah.” That was the funniest thing I had heard this year. “Is there any point in deceiving yourself? Or are you trying to say that you stopped loving her a long time ago and secretly fell for me without realizing it?”“If everyone else can see through her, I can too. When Cecilia suddenly disapp

Fame was ruthless. Was he really going to make Cecilia terminate her pregnancy just because it was a girl?Being the nosy person I was, I quickly rolled down the window to hear better.Cecilia’s panicked voice rang out. “Why would you want to get rid of the baby? Even if it’s a girl, it’s still our child!”Fame sneered. “Do I lack children? What I lack is a son!”“I’m already this far along. The doctor said that it would have to be induced labor.”“Then, induce labor.”“Fame!” Cecilia lost it and screamed, “How could you be so heartless?! Why are you doing this to me?!”Fame’s voice turned sharp and icy. “Cecilia, you’ve been with me for six months. You know exactly how much money you’ve spent. Without me, Wilson Corporation would’ve gone bankrupt ages ago! You’re no longer the Wilson family’s pampered heiress. The Wilson name is just an empty shell now!”I could not see Cecilia’s expression because they were arguing behind a pillar. However, I could imagine how furious she mus

Mr. Jenkins laughed. “I’m getting old. I haven’t been careful with my diet, so two of my three arteries are blocked. I’ll need to be more careful from now on.”A pretty woman took the flowers from me. “I’ll put these in a vase.”“Cassia, have a seat. You’re pregnant,” Mr. Jenkins said kindly. His group of young women quickly brought us tea and chairs. They were eager to help.So, I sat down with a cup of tea. Austin looked a lot like his dad, except for his eyes.His eyes were like his mom’s. She passed away when we were kids, but I still remembered her. Mrs. Jenkins had the most beautiful eyes. They were so stunning that they were like poetry. Her name was Poem Roberts, and it was fitting.Anyway, we chatted casually with Mr. Jenkins. “Where’s Austin? Is he still at work?” “He usually comes around 7 p.m. and leaves after a while,” Mr. Jenkins said.I thought about it. That matched the times Austin would show up at my place—around 9 p.m. It turned out that he came over afte

By the time I got home, Sophie was already back.She was watching a cartoon with Rachel. When she saw me, she asked, “Where have you been? Why are you home so late?”“I went for a checkup and stopped by to see Austin’s dad.”“Oh.” Her eyes widened. “I totally forgot about that.”“I already explained it to him. With how inattentive you are, we don’t expect you to remember. By the way, how did you even get downstairs?”“Oliver carried me to the elevator. He’s grown so much. He lifted me like it was nothing.”“What about Lucy?”“Why do you care?”I did not, really. I was just curious.Lucy had gone out. She could not sit still at home.Kingston showed up shortly after. After a quick chat, I took Rachel to her room to play. That way, he could be alone with Sophie. I even asked Mrs. Gibson to bring our dinner to the room to give them privacy.I had always been in favor of Sophie and Kingston dating. That was why I introduced them to each other in the first place.However, realiz

I was not afraid of giving birth. I did not know why I was so angry. Sophie actually knew nothing, and she had not done anything wrong. Austin was not in the wrong either. He was only preventing Sophie from future heartache. I regretted knowing so much. My heart was heavy, and I could not describe how I felt. Just then, I heard someone at the door. It was Lucy returning. I walked over and saw her grimace. Austin was walking behind her. I bet she was having fun when he took her home. Lucy suddenly seemed like a mere pawn. I poked my head into the living room. Sophie had finished her meal, and Kingston was wiping her mouth with a piece of tissue paper. I frowned at Sophie. “If you want to act all lovey-dovey, do it in your room.”“Who’s going to be my audience, then?” She looked at Austin. “Why do I have to avoid him?”I gave up and decided to let her be. She would regret it in the future. After that, I personally poured Austin a cup of tea. He took the cup and said

Rachel had already fallen asleep. So, I went downstairs for a glass of lemon water. Kingston happened to walk out of Sophie’s room too. He carefully shut the door, and I asked, “Is Sophie asleep?”“Yes.” Kingston laughed and said, “I was telling her a bedtime story, and she dozed off.”He had such patience to even tell Sophie a bedtime story. I could see how much he liked her. If Austin were not in the picture, I would be very happy to see their relationship progress. However, I was the one who had introduced Kingston to Sophie. Whenever I thought about Austin, I felt bad. “Have a safe drive home.”“Don’t worry. It’s just a short drive.” He kindly helped me down the stairs. “Oh, Sophie wants some pastries for breakfast tomorrow. What would you like to eat? I could buy some for you.” “She’s asking you to buy her breakfast? Don’t waste your energy. I can get the driver to buy it or just order delivery. You don’t have to trouble yourself.”“It’s no trouble at all. Sophie did

“Hush.” I held my finger up to my lips. “Stop being so noisy. He’s still sleeping.”“Cassia, can you add more people to your list of blacklisted guests? Austin, that dog—” “Shut up,” I chastised her before she could finish her sentence. However, Austin had already woken up and sat up from the sofa bed. He patted his numb arm as he said to Sophie, “At first, Lucy was sleeping here too, but your snores got too loud, so she went to the other room. I’m still here because I fell asleep. I wasn’t interested in staying up to listen to your snoring.” Sophie threw a throw pillow at him. She used too much force, so Austin toppled over after being hit. She laughed. “Austin, you’re such a loser. Are you made out of glass? Why are you falling over after such a light throw?” Austin slowly walked out of the room, and Sophie scowled as he left. Then, she lay down again. I picked up the throw pillow and tossed it back to her. “Can you be gentler next time?”“Why?”“I know you’re athletic

Rachel really liked the pastries that Kingston had bought. “I’ve never had such good food before,” she said.She was always surprised by our food, as she grew up overseas with a different type of cuisine. Zach had promised to finish building the castle with Rachel, so I sent her to Yonder Trading in the morning. I held her hand as we walked into his office. He had just finished laying the game mat on the floor. Rachel ran over to him happily. “Zach!” Zach immediately carried her and lifted her over his head. Rachel giggled. She was usually quite lonely, so she loved to spend time with us adults. After I dropped her off, Zach passed me a folder. “It’s about Lucy.” He was extremely quick in his investigation. I took the folder and only found a few pages inside.Lucy was not originally from West City. Instead, she came from East City. It turned out that she had taken her mother’s last name.Her mother was a lounge singer, and there were a few old photos of her in the

With that, I called Mr. Pepper. I felt bad for waking him up in the middle of the night, but thankfully, he lived in our house.He was still groggy, but he helped me downstairs after he washed his face with cold water.My legs felt weak, and Mr. Pepper tried to comfort me. “Don’t worry too much, Ms. Freeman. Mr. Jenkins is young. He should be fine.”However, his reasoning was not sound. Death did not care how old you were. It would just take you when it was your time.When I arrived at the hospital, Zach was waiting for me at the entrance.He held my arm and probably noticed that I was shaking, so he reassured me, “He’s in the ER. The doctor said he passed out not long ago. He took some medicine when he first felt ill, so it should be okay.”I looked up at Zach under the bright hospital lights. He took off his coat and wrapped it around me.I had left in such a hurry that I ended up wearing one yellow shoe and one white one.Soon, Austin was brought out of the ER and into a reg

“You can eat them if you want. Otherwise, I’ll just throw them away.” “Don’t waste food.” She picked up an escargot with two fingers and sucked on it, like she was eating a field snail. I sat across from her and watched her eat.“Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I’m cute?” “Yeah,” I said. “You look like a cute little pig when you eat.”“Why are you being so mean? Are you upset because of Cecilia? Are you worried that Zach might go back to her?” I got up from the couch. I was not going to waste my time worrying about Cecilia.I was actually thinking about Austin’s pale face.“Take your time eating. I’m going upstairs to hang out with Rachel.” I nodded at Kingston.Soon after, Cameron called. He was going to Switzerland for business, and he would drop by West City once he was done.Rachel quickly said, “Dad, don’t pick me up yet. Cassia’s taking good care of me. Don’t worry.”Cameron sighed on the phone and laughed a little. “Cassia, I don’t know if I should

I switched seats in the hall three times, but Cecilia stuck to me like glue. I could not get rid of her.By the time Zach finished his interview and came over, she was still challenging me. “Cassia, it doesn’t matter how much you do for Zach. Even if you give him everything, including your heart, he’ll come back to me as soon as I smile at him,” she said.Just then, Zach appeared next to our table. Cecilia kept going, as she was completely caught up in her own delusions.I looked up at Zach and said with a smile, “When did you become a butcher who took hearts?”Since he showed up, I took the chance to escape. I stood up and said, “Well, Zach’s here. Cecilia, why don’t you charm him and give him that smile you were talking about?”Then, I quickly slipped away. All evening, she had been annoying me like a fly. It totally ruined my appetite.I found a quiet spot and placed my food on the table. As soon as I sat down, Zach came over and sat across from me. I looked behind him and

When Zach saw Wilson Corporation’s bid, he tossed it aside. This meant that it had been eliminated.Wilson Corporation did not have enough funding, so they would not make it to the next round. If they could not keep up in terms of cash flow, it would delay the whole project.However, it would not be fun to eliminate them in the first round.I picked up Wilson Corporation’s bid again. Austin looked at me and asked, “What are you doing?”“Just having some fun.”Wilson Corporation would not make it to the final round anyway. At least, they could enjoy making it to the next round.When the names of the qualified companies were announced, Cecilia’s expression was strange. She looked both nervous and confident at the same time. It was like she had a split personality.The moment Zach read Wilson Corporation’s name, Cecilia quickly stood up and turned to me.I saw pride, satisfaction, and joy in her gaze.She raised her chin as she walked up to receive the bid from Zach. She was acti

There was nonstop clicking from the cameras, and their flashes were so bright that they almost made my eyes water.Just then, Zach handed me a pair of glasses. I put it on, and another reporter asked, “There’s a rumor that Zach was recently fired from Gordon Corporation’s board? Is it true?”Tyler laughed. He looked at Zach and then at me before he said, “You just said that it was a rumor, right?”I scanned the crowd and quickly spotted Cecilia. Her face was pale, and it looked like she was about to cry.At this point, she should realize that Zach had not been fired. He was not the nobody she thought he was.He was still the same Zach. In fact, he was even better. While he was away from the spotlight, Zach set Yonder Trading up for the next five years. Even without Gordon Corporation, he could still succeed in the business world with Yonder Trading.Cecilia was dumbfounded, but it did not seem like she could cry. It was almost funny.Her attitude had been completely different

Cecilia walked toward me in her high heels. “Cassia, you’re acting like a saint again. When Zach’s career fell apart four years ago, you stayed with him for three years. Now, you’re getting back with him again? You love him that much, huh? I’m telling you that Zach is a lost cause. No matter what you do, he’s not going to make a comeback unless you hand over Freeman Corporation to him. Other people date for fun, but you? You’re ready to risk everything for him.”“Cecilia.” I looked her straight in the eye. “That’s enough. No matter what, Zach used to be completely devoted to you. Not only have you dumped him, but you’re trash-talking him behind his back.”“Behind his back? I’d say the same thing to his face.” Cecilia raised her chin. “Sure, Zach loved me, but I don’t want some lovesick fool. It doesn’t matter that he turned against the Gordon family for me. Did I ask him to? If his life is a mess now, it’s his own fault.”“His fault is falling in love with you.”Cecilia smiled smug

The past few days had been particularly hectic. The signing of the Cameron Hill project was around the corner, and we were going to open for tender on the signing day. Once the project began, we would subcontract to many construction companies. We had a few construction companies under Freeman Corporation. However, it was going to be hard for us to tackle such a big project on our own. Hence, we needed to look for subcontractors. Doing both the signing and the tendering on the same day was a first in the industry. Actually, I did not want to rush things like that, but Austin wanted to be quick. He was afraid that his body would give up on him. Meanwhile, I was afraid that I would accidentally tell Sophie the truth one day. Sophie could not make it to the signing. She could not walk well, and she was basically resting. We had released the news about the tender a few days ago, and I had received tenders from many companies. Wilson Corporation was one of them. I glanced at the

While I was staring at Lucy’s photo, my father called me. He and my mother had been away for a really long trip. They left when it was winter, and it was already spring, but they were still not back. My father said, “The proposal that you sent me regarding Cameron Hill is very detailed. I think it’s a good project. You can sign on my behalf.” “Dad, are you guys not coming back yet?”“You’re good at your job. I feel at ease when you’re in charge.” “Dad, don’t forget that my baby’s due in two months.” “Well, aren’t there two months left, then?” I was speechless. My father was trying to make use of me until the day I gave birth. He seemed to be in a good mood. Yesterday, my mother called and told me that Aunt Lauren and her husband were feeling much better than before. It was especially so after they learned that Sophie had gotten into a relationship. Before I ended the call, my father gave me some encouraging words, “Oscar called me yesterday and praised you for being a
