Jaxon looked dumbfounded at what I said to him. Surprisingly, he shouldn't have been because compared to what he did to me, what I just said wasn't a big deal.

I saw Jaxon's hands on the table clenched tightly, as well as the hardened look on his face. The man had an ego. He didn't like me contradicting him, let alone saying something harsh.

He often felt angry and upset when I told him what he should do. Jaxon was often offended by my attitude, so I was always careful with him.

"Alright, I understand." He lowered his face, but I could see he was trying to control himself. Afterward, she raised her face, looking at me. "I understand you're still angry with me, Vanessa."

I looked at him with a frown on my face. He clearly didn't understand anything about me and was talking nonsense.

If I think about it, Jaxon never understood me. When we first got together, he was only gentle, but he decided everything himself. He never involved me in any decisions, everything was always about him, and

    What is Andreas doing here? Why is he always in the places I visit? Often, he comes out of nowhere and meets me.It's not that I'm upset about meeting him, but right now, if I have to choose between being with someone or being alone, I want to be alone. Let myself be alone somewhere until my emotions subside.Especially in this situation, I didn't want Andreas to meet with Jaxon. I could imagine how awkward the situation would be when those two people faced off.The shameless Jaxon, who knew who his opponent was, would certainly degrade himself even more in front of Andreas, and that would be very bad for me. After all, Jaxon is my ex-husband, and letting him show his stupidity in front of Andreas would be the same as showing my stupidity. Since I've been in love and even married to someone like him, that's the worst thing."Where are you going?" Andreas greets me first, who silently stares at him in surprise that he's there.I anxiously looked back, making sure Jaxon wasn't there. "I

    Vanessa's pov"Vanessa?" Maria tilted her head and looked at me, who had suddenly walked up to her and wrapped my arm around her while sitting next to her in a reclined position.She rubbed my cheek lightly with a puzzled look while occasionally looking back at Andreas, strolling and standing not far from where we were sitting."What's wrong?" Maria asked me with her soft voice and warm caress still on my cheek.I shook my head softly. "Nothing." I just walked over to her to get Andreas to stop bothering me. The whole way, he kept going on about it, and it felt like I was going crazy hearing him tease me. That guy pissed me off.Maria continued to look at me with concern. I looked warmly into those same eyes as Andreas. It was lucky that Andreas had inherited so many of his mother's features because Andreas' face looked calm and handsome, while his attitude was not much different. One thing I believe Andreas probably got from his father was his nosy attitude because there was no way i

    vanessa's POV"Vanessa, are you sick?" Andreas' voice on the other end of the line was loud. I could feel his concern in his tone of voice.I moved my phone and flanked it more comfortably as my hand pressed the elevator button while the other was busy looking for something in the bag."I heard from Dad when I got home that you were in the hospital." I was still listening and taking in his words. "Are you okay? I'll be there in a moment."My eyes opened wide, and my head which had been tilted from flanking the phone, was now in a straight position after my hand took over the phone and moved it to my other ear. "You don't have to come." I spontaneously refused Andreas to come to see me.What did he want to do here? It was quite troublesome that Andreas was too interested in me. I stare at the numbers that show the floor number is constantly changing.My heart suddenly pounded, and panicked. "You don't need to come. I'm just doing an inspection." I gulped, staring at the numbers and hop

    vanessa's POV"Can you explain it in simple terms?" I didn't understand the terms at all.I mean, I'm pretty unfamiliar with medical terms in obgyn. It's because, during our time with Jaxon, we never did any tests at any specialist.Either because Jaxon didn't want me to feel offended or sad because of the test results that I didn't want or because he didn't want to spend more money to get me checked out, while his mom and his crush concluded that I had a problem with my uterus.The doctor, whom I was meeting for the first time, swiped his computer screen and showed it to me. "Let me explain that you don't have a problem with your eggs. Your condition is quite fertile, and you are entering a mature age for reproduction." I followed the direction of the man's hand that seemed to circle the image on the screen.I was silent for a moment. There was a pause in my head that made me a little confused. "Does that mean I don't have infertility, doctor?" My eyes looked straight at the man in t

    Catherine’s POVShe infuriated me.I clenched my fists to stare at Vanessa, who stood before me with her arrogant attitude.What exactly made that woman suddenly different from before? She used to look shabby and completely unattractive, but suddenly, after divorcing Jaxon, why did her life change so drastically?It's strange to think where all that good fortune came from, but after looking at her now, I'm sure that she must have gotten it all as a result of utilizing her body on men.I smiled sarcastically at her. "You'd better shut up." My eyes moved to look her up and down. "It's none of your business whether I'm pregnant or not. If I'm pregnant, the child is Jaxon's because, of course, I'm not like you." my eyes looked at him with a condescending look.Seeing Vanessa's silence made me feel like I had a chance to put her down. I didn't want her to look superior to me, my gaze went back to her appearance, and it made me even more annoyed.Who is she to try to look better than me? I'

    Catherine’s POvI looked down at my hands on the floor with a glare mixed with annoyance, a throbbing pain appearing as my ass hit the floor hard.Vanessa!That woman really doesn't know herself. I stared at her fiercely, my hands clenched tightly, my chest full of rumbling and heat radiating through my body as it burned with emotion. My breathing was ragged. I felt like I was going crazy with rage. I quickly got up from the cold floor. I wasn't going to let go."I will kill you, Vanessa!" I shouted, lunging towards her, but again, she caught me. "I'll kill the baby in your womb!"Our eyes met. She was staring calmly. She can't be that calm! She is fighting me. I am Catherine. That woman should feel humiliated and low if she meets my eyes."Are you talking about the baby you're carrying?" She smiled. That crazy woman smiling in front of me? That crazy bitch. "You should take a good look at yourself. I just pushed you really hard, but look what happened to you."What did she mean?Vane

    Vanessa's pov."Why, why can't you throw him out!" She snapped at the two officers loudly. "She's just a lowly bitch. She doesn't belong here. I don't want to be in a hospital with a slut like her, so get her out of here immediately!"I looked at her reluctantly. Who was she calling a cheap woman? When she had been the one to show how lowly she was in front of people.She kept shouting in front of the crowd. Was she trying to emphasise that she was a shameless woman? So pathetic.What was Jaxon thinking about having an affair with this kind of person? He thought so much about people's views and really disliked his partner doing something that embarrassed him. But apparently, his taste was worse than that."What are you waiting for?!" Cathrine's voice screeched again. Every time she screamed, the veins in her neck appeared to tighten. She made me uneasy every time I saw her. "If you can't do it, let me do it, move aside." Catherine stepped forward to approach me, but the two men who we

    Catherine’s POVWhat the hell is going on?I stared at the situation in confusion. Why was the hospital director greeting her kindly while she ignored me?I was sure that Vanessa was a loser. Anne used to talk about Vanessa's background as nothing. She told me that Vanessa was just a country girl with no parents.She was a poor girl who had nothing and brought nothing with her when she married Jaxon. Anne hated her so much because it was like she was living with them, and that's why I was so accepted by Anne at first, of course, because I was richer and better-looking than her.I had the status of a rich person. My appearance was luxurious, so she could boast about me to her relatives and friends, unlike Vanessa, who was an embarrassment to her. But what happened?Why was the woman who was looked down upon and belittled suddenly treated like a conglomerate in some luxurious place?That day at the big supermarket, she was also treated like a big shot, and today, she was also treated be

    Vanessa's POVI stepped into a beautiful place with a vast expanse of grass. I hadn't seen Andreas since earlier, so I wondered to myself. Where else would Andreas be? Why did he suddenly disappear?I took a deep breath. I tried to ignore my thoughts about Andreas and chose to enjoy this beautiful place I was visiting. This place is so lovely. I didn't get tired of stretching my arms while occasionally taking a deep breath of air. I was really in love with this place.I've been struggling with my feelings of comfort for a while when Andreas suddenly appears behind me. The man smiled sweetly at me as he handed me a bouquet and a box of cakes. "Vanessa, I brought you a bouquet and some cake," Andreas said.I smiled enthusiastically. I immediately grabbed the bouquet and cake with my right hand. Meanwhile, my left hand stretched out to cup Andreas' free wrist. "You're so romantic, Andreas." I smiled mockingly at him. Being nosy is my hobby these days with him.Andreas chuckled. "How was

    Vanessa's povI was annoyed when he took me away from our still-unfinished wedding party. Was it okay for the guests to stay without the person who owned the event? I mean, was it polite to just leave them there? But Andreas didn't seem to care.He impatiently carried me into the room without turning my head to the right and left. I then put my hand to hold on tighter to him. In case he was having trouble, I murmured near his ear, "I hope this marriage continues to work well, Andreas."I saw Andreas nodding. "Sure, this will go on forever." He lowered me from his arms and then took off his suit. The man then smiled and walked towards the bed.I, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, did not dodge when Andreas suddenly touched my arm. And was groped my arm until I have amused myself. "Andreas, stop it! I felt ridiculous when you touched me."Instead of stopping the touching, Andreas moved to grope my neck. Then, his palm moved to my back until he embraced me completely."Why are you

    Vanessa's POVStep by step, I walked closer to him, slowly gazing at him. The moment felt very sacred like it was filled with blessings and happiness. Each step I took toward him made what happened and what I went through with that man flash in my head.I felt like I was the one who rejected him so harshly, the one who mistreated her and denied my feelings, and when I thought about it now, I felt guilty for him, especially after seeing how much effort she put into making our relationship an approved one.Throughout his absence, I kept cursing him, not knowing what he had secretly prepared for me. He kept his promise to me, kept his promise to his father, and melted his mother's heart. He almost did everything just to accept me into his life.I laughed, looking at him on the other end, who gestured with his hands for me not to cry. We laughed at this happiness that was about to be achieved and only a few steps away.Right in front of me, as we stopped by the Altar, Andreas extended his

    Vanessa's POVMy wedding day finally arrived. Two days before the wedding day, the others and I had prepared a private jet to take you to the private island where our wedding would be held.It wasn't for nothing that the island was chosen as the location for the wedding. Father decided on it because he knew his daughter well and didn't like her private life to be highlighted by people and enjoyed by the public. Even though I realised that I had become a public figure, I didn't want that kind of thing, on the contrary. I hoped that everything would go smoothly."Vanessa, I'll put the necklace here, then return later." Maria put down the jewellery box I knew contained a necklace she gave me yesterday.I nodded my head. "Yes, ma'am. I'll make sure to ask them to wear it." I glanced at her, who passed beside me with a nodding smile.It was hard for me to look at her because I felt like I was being used as a mannequin by the makeup and fashion artists in charge of my appearance today.They

    Vanessa's POVI was walking out of the house doorway with my eyebrows raised when I found Andreas pacing back and forth incoherently with a worried expression like that. He was worried about something. He didn't usually look that worried.I let out a short breath. I tried to steady myself before stepping towards the man who now made me feel better than ever.He turned to me. "Vanessa?" he sounded panicked for no reason, even though I had only been out of sight for a few moments.Suddenly, I heard a voice that sounded worried. Andreas quickly pulled my hand away, and I was told to face him fully, close enough that my breath and his breath almost met.Andreas touched my cheeks hard enough to make me feel out of breath. I patted his waist, and sure enough. Andreas immediately released the choke hold."I've been waiting for you. What took you so long?" Andreas asked later. He seemed incoherently annoyed. "What are you guys doing?"I stayed where I was standing. I let the seconds pass by,

    Vanessa's POV"I don't think this is a necklace that just anyone can wear. Why did you give it to me?" I touched the necklace carefully around my neck, then looked at it in the mirror with an enchanted look.That necklace was so beautiful. It was like wearing a tiara around my neck and seeing firsthand the necklaces that nobles used to wear years ago. Compared to how much it could cost, I was more fascinated by the history of what it had gone through to reach this generation, and it was still well preserved. One thing I was sure of was that this necklace seemed to be a precious treasure belonging to the Andreas family.My fingers clenched into fists, and suddenly, my courage to touch it shrank. "Are you sure you gave it to me?" I turned to her, staring doubtfully.Maria nodded her head. Now I understood why when I saw the sapphire stone, I felt familiar and like I had seen it before. It was because the blue stone had the same colour as her eyes, the same as the colour of Andreas' iris

    Vanessa's POV"Let's take a short walk before we go home." Andreas stood up from where he was sitting and extended his hand to me.I grabbed his hand and pulled him so I stood beside him. "Where are we going?" I asked him, holding my hand tightly as we walked out of the café where Steve and I had signed off on our project."Mmm... just walk around here. I saw a park when we were walking here earlier. It's nice outside, so let's go outside." He glanced at me with a warm smile on his lips.I nodded my head, walking out of the place with him. The park, she said, is not far from there. The park was near an artificial lake in the city's centre, but even though it was an artificial lake, the lake's size was quite large.The atmosphere in the garden looked very shady and pleasant. In the sunny weather with a brightly lit sky, the garden showed its dominant, alluring green and brown colours. Walking there felt cool because the wind first hit the leaves and made the breeze feel cooler.I sighe

    Vanessa's POV"Are you sure you want to join us for the meeting? Don't you want to wait in my room?" I asked him as he opened the car door for me.Andreas shook his head. "Why, you don't want me to interrupt your meeting with him?" he glanced at me with a serious look, even though I knew he was joking, while extending his hand to me.I grabbed his hand and joined him, walking out of the car. "I'm not." I denied it. He was still being nosy about it. "I'm just worried that you'll get bored waiting for us to talk about work," I replied casually. I was hooking my arm tighter around his.Andreas turned to me with his eyebrows knitted together and a fierce look on his face. "Me? Bored with talking about work?" He twitched her lips with a playful face. "Seriously, have you forgotten who I am?" he pretended with his annoying face.I stare at him in astonishment, right? For a moment, I forgot that Andreas was someone like that. He was a workaholic, and it was impossible for him to feel bored w

As he breathed deeply into my shoulder, I could hear the sound of his breathing in time, with his heartbeat beating in a matching rhythm.Andreas shook his head. "I'm tired of talking to them, welcoming their congratulations and other pleasantries." He raised her head slightly, peering at me. "I bet you went here too because you were tired of everything."Andreas laughed. He looked at me with a nosy expression, like he had read what was going through my mind. "You must be getting sick of them talking like sycophants, right?" he grinned.I raised my eyebrows at him in astonishment. "You're just like a psychic." How could he know? Was he reading my mind? Or was the expression on my face too evident and easy to read? I furrowed my eyebrows.He chuckled as he wrapped his arms around my waist. "I'm not psychic. I know you well." He replied with a smile on his face that seemed to tease me. "Let's go out. We ne
