Pregnant but Rejected as A Billionaire Wife 19. Damn It!
At home, while sitting in his office lost in thought, Lucas appeared visibly restless. Anxious, troubled, and agitated.Throughout the afternoon, during his meeting with his father, Lucas was completely unfocused. His mind wandered, thinking about how to handle the issue of Deasy's pregnancy.Felix had promised to help him find a way out. That's why Felix was now standing there, waiting for Lucas to make a decision."I handled things at the hospital, sir. I made sure all the medical team, including the doctor who treated Deasy, keeps quiet about your knowledge of her current condition.""Okay, then what should I do now?"Felix approached, asking permission to sit down, and then faced Lucas, who was massaging his forehead."As planned, per your father's instructions, Lucas Orion must immediately return to Quantum Tech and start the process of resigning while Lucas Morales is away on duty in Singapore.""Okay... Lucas Orion indeed has to resign so Lunas Morales can be free to work at Qu

"Luc, are you really going to resign from Quantum Tech?"Several staff members from the finance division gathered in front of Lucas' desk. After learning that the bespectacled man intended to resign from the company, they all swarmed in, awaiting clarification and a more detailed explanation for why someone who had been dedicated to the finance department for over a year was now deciding to leave the company.Lucas' performance and career at the company had been impressive. He was even expected to receive a promotion soon to the position of assistant manager.However, just before the promotion could happen, Lucas made a decision that was highly surprising. Out of the blue, after returning from a few days of leave, he announced his decision to resign. It was ironic."Yes, it's final. Once I finish all my pending tasks at Quantum Tech, I'll be leaving.""But why so sudden?" Della asked, looking lost. She admitted that Lucas had willingly helped her with many of her tasks."Yeah," Androm

For the past three days, Deasy had secluded herself in her apartment. Taking advantage of the fact that she had suddenly fainted earlier, she chose not to go to work, citing illness as the reason. However, physically, Deasy was perfectly fine. It was her mental state that had been shaken after hearing the medical diagnosis. "You're pregnant, Deasy! Remember, you're P-R-E-G-N-A-N-T," she said, emphasizing each letter. "Finally, what you feared has happened. So, who are you going to hold responsible?" She had repeated that sentence countless times. Deasy tried to deny the reality that she was pregnant. Many thoughts crossed her mind, from finding a potential father to support and take responsibility, to hiring a husband or, worst of all, terminating the pregnancy. But one thing was for sure: Deasy did not want to marry Lucas Orion under any circumstances. "No," she shook her head repeatedly. "Even if it's doomsday, I will not marry Lucas Orion. No way!" Despite Lucas' earlier offe

After contemplating for about four days and taking some time off, Deasy finally made up her mind to return to her activities.She pushed away the feelings of turmoil that had briefly taken hold of her and tried to act as normal as possible so that no one would suspect what she was currently going through.In any case, Dessy was determined. Not a single person should know that she was expecting a baby at the moment.When she arrived at the Quantum Tech building, Deasy was warmly welcomed by several staff members who had been part of her core team under her division. Some even gladly escorted her to her office, and she resumed her usual routine.Deasy felt immensely thankful and grateful to God for blessing her with responsible subordinates who had a high level of loyalty to their superiors and the company. When she returned to the office, all the deadlines she had left behind had been completed neatly without any remaining tasks. It only required a single review and her signature."If

"Do I really need to go to the obstetrician?"Deasy entered Veronica's car with a grumpy expression. She had just come home from work, and before she could even lie down and rest, her friend had come and insisted on taking her to the obstetrician for a check-up on her baby's condition.Deasy admitted that Veronica was a good and caring friend, but she really didn't want to go to the obstetrician."It's necessary. So that you know exactly how your pregnancy is progressing."Veronica nonchalantly fastened Deasy's seatbelt for her, then continued driving to the hospital.Upon arriving at their destination, Veronica wasted no time and ushered Deasy into the obstetrician's office. After waiting for about ten minutes, they were called in and invited to enter the examination room."Please lie down here, so I can perform the examination," the obstetrician requested as she prepared for the procedure.A nurse helped guide Deasy to the patient's bed. She was allowed to lie down comfortably, and

I don't know if it's just Deasy's feeling or if it's actually the fact that day by day feels like it's dragging on for so long. Well, what does it mean, anyway? Anyway, Deasy feels like the days are passing by very slowly.If she could ask God for a favor, she would want her pregnancy to instantly be nine months old. Can you imagine that?It does sound impossible, though. But, to be honest, she feels overwhelmed. It's not about taking care of the little baby inside her belly. It's more about worry and embarrassment, especially as her belly gets bigger, it's bound to attract attention from people around.But, because she's aware that she's covered in sin, it feels undeserving to ask for anything from God. As Veronica says,"Be grateful! Who asked you to keep getting drunk and not taking care of yourself? Sleeping with just anyone. Twice, even. Now you're pregnant, suddenly you're all worked up and dizzy."As a friend, Veronica falls into the category of Luck-nut friends. Instead of hel

"Sir, my audit team and I have checked multiple times. Arinda, Mr. Daniel's wife, doesn't have any foreign accounts or suspected involvement in money laundering or anything of the sort. The investigation has been thorough. I can assure you we won't be wrong."In the office space in his home, Lucas received a report from Felix. One task had been successfully completed by his assistant. Now, it was up to him to slowly investigate Deasy. Whether his boss had foreign accounts suspected to be where Daniel had hidden the company's money."So, we can remove her from the list.""Yes, Sir. Now it's just Ms. Deasy. For her, I leave it entirely to you, Mr. Lucas."Lucas nodded his head and reached for the documents that Felix had provided earlier, reading them once more."At first glance, Deasy's documents are clean, white, like Eid clothes. There's no stain.""But, it doesn't rule out the possibility that she received illicit funds from Mr. Daniel, right?"Lucas nodded."Yeah, all those possibi

Discovering Deasy suddenly staggering, then losing consciousness, Lucas promptly reached out to catch her so she wouldn't fall to the floor.Exerting all his strength, Lucas then carried Deasy and brought her to the bedroom, where he gently laid her on the bed.For a moment, Lucas took a deep breath. Trying not to panic, he hurriedly contacted the apartment's receptionist, requesting assistance in summoning a doctor to examine Deasy's condition as soon as possible.Fortunately, in the apartment complex, there was a standby doctor. It only took five minutes for the doctor to arrive and begin the examination."So, how is she, doc?"Lucas and the doctor both stepped out of the room. They sat on the living room sofa, discussing Deasy's condition and the reasons she had lost consciousness."Actually, there's nothing to worry about. Pregnant women often experience various symptoms in the early trimester. Some feel nauseous and vomit frequently. They may also struggle to eat. Mood swings are

"Welcome to Japan, Sweetheart."Deasy smiled broadly as she arrived and finally set foot in Japan. As a woman from an affluent family, traveling to Japan shouldn't have been difficult for her.Throughout her life, she had traveled to several countries, both for leisure and work-related purposes.However, despite visiting many countries in Europe and Asia, she had never had the opportunity to visit Japan. It was quite ironic.Now, after harboring this desire for so long, Lucas had granted it. Turning this special trip into a birthday gift made Deasy feel even more delighted."Thank you so much, Luc. As a husband and life partner, you truly go above and beyond. If I had ten thumbs, I'd give them all to you.""With my pleasure, Honey," Lucas replied when they had arrived in Japan and were now at the hotel. "Your happiness and Jonas's are my current life goals. Whatever it takes, I'll do it to make both of you happy.""But how did you kno

"Lucas, what surprise do you actually want to give, huh?" Deasy wondered. Just from her expression, her curiosity was so evident.Since waking up, Lucas had been treating her very specially. From being accompanied to bathe, to picking out clothes for her. Cooking her favorite breakfast menu. And of course, feeding her as usual.Actually, this often happened on ordinary days. What made it extraordinary was the presence of Veronica, Darwin, and Sean who were sitting in the dining room together with them this morning to enjoy breakfast.Deasy was certainly surprised. She never expected Lucas to invite his friends so early in the morning to visit and have breakfast together. Because usually, inviting people to celebrate birthdays always happened in the evening or at night. What was even more impressive was that their friends willingly came even though it was very early and on a holiday."Well, this is one of the surprises. Inviting your close friends to have

It's already eleven o'clock at night, but Deasy still hasn't seen Lucas, who hasn't come home all day.In all her time as a wife, Deasy has never known Lucas to come home late, let alone this late. Even if he had to work overtime, Lucas had never come home later than nine in the evening. So, where is her husband tonight?Deasy has tried multiple times to contact him and send text messages, but he hasn't responded to any of her attempts. He hasn't even answered her calls.Deasy has started to wonder if Lucas is so angry that he's decided not to come home. Or perhaps he's still spending time with Devina.Oh, this is just so frustrating!Speaking of Devina, why does it feel so suffocating to imagine that Lucas might actually be with his ex-fiancée? Deasy is not okay with her husband being with another woman, whoever she may be.Because of overthinking, Deasy is getting frustrated with herself. She's been waiting for Lucas, who still hasn
Pregnant but Rejected as A Billionaire Wife 102. Her fate
Although they hadn't known each other for long, Veronica could tell that Lucas was the type of guy who didn't easily get angry. So far, from the moment he tried to win over Deasy, Veronica believed that Lucas was a gentle and caring man who truly respected women.Back then, when Deasy intentionally tried to provoke him, hurling insults and even deliberate humiliation, Lucas wasn't offended or deterred in the slightest. He remained faithful and continued to try to win over Deasy, who was as stubborn as a rock.So, if he was angry now, Veronica was sure there must have been something that Deasy had done that had crossed the line. After all, people don't get angry and sulk for no reason."Well... no, it's not just that.""Then what?""This Joseph guy initially praised me. He said I looked prettier than before. So, the two of us started chatting about various things. We even discussed how he's still not married to this day. So, I casually asked him if

"Why is your face all scrunched up like that? Another fight? World War? Or what?"Having just met Deasy, Veronica could already guess what was happening with her friend. Deasy, who had been very busy, was called and asked to join her at their favorite coffee shop."Just annoyed," Deasy replied casually. Her face looked extremely sour. It was evident that she was not in a good mood."Annoyed about what again? Did Lucas ask for permission to get married again?"Deasy immediately looked up, glared at Veronica disapprovingly. She couldn't believe her longtime friend was talking so carelessly.Oh, Deasy forgot.Veronica's behavior was quite similar to her mother's. She often spoke without thinking and lacked empathy towards others."Gosh, you love speaking so recklessly, don't you?" Deasy scolded. She was clearly annoyed. "Don't forget how you used to talk when I first got married to Darwin. Your comments were way worse, Des."Deasy

Deasy continued to observe. She watched as Lucas, engrossed in playing with Jonas, interacted with him before heading off to work.This was indeed a routine that her husband always followed. No matter how busy or tired he was, Lucas made it a point to find time to play, chat, or carry Jonas around.The same applied to how he treated Deasy. Regardless of how occupied he was, Lucas always made an effort to give her attention.This morning, after playing with Jonas, Lucas still found time to have breakfast with Deasy. Instead of being overly dramatic, when Deasy asked to be fed, Lucas readily complied with his wife's request."Luc... Are you still angry?"Deasy intentionally inquired. Since the incident where Lucas had caught her engaging in a conversation with Joseph, her husband seemed deliberately silent.Yes, Deasy was aware that what she had done was a grave mistake. However, she had apologized repeatedly.Although he continued to s

Lucas: Honey, are you waiting for me right now? As soon as my client leaves, I'll come pick you up. I promise.Lucas waited anxiously for a response to the text message he sent to Deasy. He hoped his wife would understand and forgive his current situation.Deasy: Relax, Luc. I'm almost done here. I need to pick up some medicine and vitamins. Jonas is fine with me. When you're completely done with work, just come over here.Lucas: Alright, please be patient and wait for me. Later, we can have lunch together outside.Deasy: Sure, my beloved husband. I'll be waiting for your arrival.Earlier, Lucas had been in a meeting. Once his work was finished and he made sure his client had left the office, he quickly grabbed his car keys and prepared to pick up Deasy.Lucas knew today was the day their son was scheduled for vaccinations at the hospital. He had also promised his wife that, no matter how busy he was, he would make time to pick them up from

"Hey, Dad. How's it going? Sorry I couldn't visit sooner. This time, Deasy came to visit you along with the new addition to the family."Deasy smiled as she touched the gravestone with Anton Winterborne's name inscribed on it. Three months after giving birth, she finally had some free time to visit her father's grave, and once again, she was accompanied by her beloved mother, Diana.Before this, Deasy had visited her father's grave a few times shortly before giving birth. Today, she intentionally stopped by when Jonas had just turned three months old."Say hi, Dad. Deasy's new bodyguard is named Jonas. Jonas Fernando Morales. He's three months old now. If you look closely, he has a resemblance to you."Diana, sitting beside Deasy, smiled too. She touched her husband's gravestone and started talking, just like Deasy."Your favorite princess finally has a child, Dad," the woman said casually. "I bet you never thought that the spoiled, lazy, food-lovi

After waking up from his long slumber a while ago, Lucas immediately called the medical team to examine Deasy's condition.Since he was allowed to watch, Lucas continued to observe how the doctor was currently examining each of his wife's bodily functions and ensuring that everything was in good condition."How is it, doc?" Lucas asked after the doctor finished the examination."Congratulations, Mr. Lucas. Finally, Mrs. Deasy is fully conscious. After reevaluation, I can assure you that her condition is very good and normal. For the time being, let her undergo intensive treatment in the hospital for a day or two. If her progress continues to be good, there's a possibility she can come home soon."After hearing the doctor's explanation, Lucas hurriedly approached Deasy, who was lying down. Without saying much, the shadowy-eyed man immediately embraced her. He held her tightly, as if pouring out the longing that had accumulated so high in the past few days.
