Pregnant but Rejected as A Billionaire Wife 30. Fall in Love with Me
"Have you taken your medicine? Are you still feeling nauseous or vomiting like yesterday?"A few days later, Veronica visited Deasy again. She looked worried, considering that Deasy had previously experienced severe nausea and vomiting, which had left her pale and weak.Veronica wanted to take her to the hospital, but Deasy kept refusing, claiming she was fine."I've taken my medicine, actually. The nausea still comes and goes. The vomiting has lessened."Veronica then took something out of the paper bag she had brought with her. It was a box of healthy food that she had intentionally bought for Deasy to eat."Well, how about trying to eat now? You haven't eaten, right?"Deasy shook her head."No, not yet. Honestly, I haven't had much of an appetite these past few days. The smell of food makes me nauseous. And if I can't bear it, I'll vomit right away.""Alright, try the food I brought. Maybe you'll like it."Veronica slowly opened the bento box she was holding. However, before it cou

Compared to Deasy, Lucas was the one who seemed most enthusiastic about heading to the hospital. He couldn't wait to find out the results of today's obstetric examination. Along the way, Lucas also thought about consulting with the doctor. He really wanted to ask about what he should do as a ready and vigilant expectant father.From the beginning, he knew that Deasy was carrying his flesh and blood, and he was determined to be completely committed. He would do anything to care for, protect, and provide the best for their unborn child."Please step out, dear."Once they arrived at the hospital lobby, Lucas promptly got out of the car and opened the door for her. He reached for Deasy's wrist without being asked, and then casually held her hand as he guided her slowly toward the obstetrics department."What? Dear? No need to be so formal, Luc. Who allowed you to call me 'dear'?""Well, instead of calling you 'Ms. Deasy' or using other formal language, people might think something else. I

At exactly ten o'clock at night, Lucas and Deasy finally arrived at their apartment. Entering the unit, Lucas carefully led Deasy to the bedroom.While Deasy changed into her sleepwear, Lucas decided to make warm milk before leaving.However, as he was about to enter the bedroom, the tall man was stunned. He could clearly see Deasy sitting on the room's sofa, massaging her back alternately.Earlier, during the consultation, Lucas had indeed heard Deasy complaining about frequent back and headache pain.Feeling sorry for Deasy, who had been tired and was still massaging her back, Lucas intended to help. He approached her while handing her a glass of milk and then sat right behind her."Is your back hurting a lot, Ms. Deasy?""Yes.""Let me help with the massage.""No need to bother," Deasy declined. "You don't have to trouble yourself. You should go home now. It's already ten o'clock. Besides, the pain will go away on its own by tomorrow, as the doctor said."Lucas didn't respond. He c

For a God sake, and for whatever it's worth, Deasy could feel quite vividly how Lucas's hands continued to move. Massaging from the neck, then slowly descending to the shoulders.Deasy had never felt this comfortable before. Massaged with gentleness. Full of feeling and so earnest. Making her previously tense back slowly relax and feel comfortable.Actually, what Lucas provided was already more than enough. But, for some reason, she seemed to be enjoying it. Very pleased to receive the service her subordinate was offering. In fact, she appeared quite content to linger and didn't want Lucas to stop his hand movements."So, how is it, Ma'am? My massage really feels good, right?"Deasy sighed. She was so lazy when she was enjoying herself like this, and now she was being asked to entertain Lucas's chatter."Enough, Luc. No need to ask so many questions. Just focus on the massage. I need a massage, not to listen to your pointless chattering.""Well, who knows, maybe my massage isn't good.
Pregnant but Rejected as A Billionaire Wife 34. Farewell
After the events of that night, when Lucas deliberately teased Deasy and left the game hanging, the man didn't apologize in the slightest. He didn't even appear once, let alone call or send a short message. It's been more than a week, and Lucas hasn't shown his prominent nose.You could say that Deasy was starting to feel lost. How Lucas used to visit, accompany, and even give her attention every morning and evening. He'd feed her and make sure she was full. And now? The man had disappeared from the scene.Even though every morning and evening, Deasy still received food deliveries, it wasn't delivered directly by Lucas as usual but through a courier or delivery service."Seriously, Lucas is so irresponsible. He promised to take care of things for nine months. How old is it now, a few weeks in, and he's already gone. Typical guy, they're all the same! Can they ever keep their promises?"In her office, while sitting and staring at her phone screen, Deasy could be heard grumbling. She wa

Upon arriving in the meeting room, Deasy could see her fellow managers had already gathered. Daniel, the Tricky Magic Com guy, was already comfortably seated in his chair."I thought you weren't attending the meeting because you haven't been around."As Deasy took her seat, Daniel immediately remarked. Their chairs happened to be right next to each other."There's no way someone as important as me would skip a meeting. Besides, my girlfriend would worry if she didn't see me here."Deasy continued to boast in front of Daniel, confidently acknowledging that Lucas Morales, their boss, was her boyfriend. Even though she knew her boss seemed to have a partner already.Meanwhile, Daniel visibly cringed. It was clear he was fed up with Deasy constantly flaunting herself."I bet your relationship won't last long. You're not even in the same league.""Don't try to be a fortune teller predicting people's fates."Daniel burst into laughter."I'm not pretending to predict the future. But, judging

Deasy walked casually as she entered one of the coffee shops in Pacific Place. While carrying her laptop bag in her right hand, she continued to move toward Sean, who had been there with Veronicafor a while.Seeing Deasy acting differently than usual, Sean immediately grew suspicious. For some reason, he was quite sure that something was amiss with his long-time friend.That's why, when Deasy sat down, Sean quickly asked a question. He wanted to make sure, with genuine concern, what was really happening to Deasy."What's wrong, Des? You look kind of down. Are you sick? Or not feeling well?"Deasy nodded slowly. She took several deep breaths while massaging her forehead, which was pulsating with pain."I'll be honest, I'm really tired," she said softly. Occasionally, her eyes closed as if she was truly feeling something uncomfortable within herself."Tired?" Sean's eyebrows furrowed. He didn't quite understand what Deasy meant by that. "Tired of what? Is your workload piling up? Many d

Lucas had been looking around from side to side for a while, scanning every corner of the room in an attempt to find Deasy. For whatever reason, tonight he really hoped that she would be present at the office celebration party.However, after nearly thirty minutes of searching, Lucas still hadn't found Deasy anywhere. He wasn't sure if she hadn't arrived yet or if she deliberately chose not to attend the party tonight.In truth, Lucas felt guilty. Lately, due to being so busy with work, he hadn't been able to visit Deasy as usual. Yet, he had promised to take care of her, protect her, and look after her during her pregnancy.However, even though he couldn't take care of her directly, Lucas still made an effort to send and ensure that Deasy had her daily meals. He hoped that after all his work was done, he could visit and accompany her as before.Honestly, sometimes Lucas felt a longing. He had grown accustomed to Deasy's nagging, and lately, her absence had made his life feel empty."

"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

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.
