"Will you come back tonight?" Carefully, Pauline Xia asked through the phone. After a long silence, she got the answer, "No.".
There was a double bed, but only traces of someone sleeping on one side and the other side was flat as if no one had ever existed.
Hearing busy tone on the other end of the phone, Pauline had to go to the window sulkily and breathe some fresh air. There was nothing unacceptable. Wasn't this man always like this?
Pauline Xia had been pregnant for four months. Unfortunately, she was so thin that didn't look pregnant at all. Only when she stood up and touched her belly could she feel the slight bulging.
When the doorbell rang, Pauline's eyes darkened and quickly put on a coat.
She had been married for three years, and this was her first child. She was happy but she didn't dare to tell Frank Gu until four months later when the baby was stable.
When she opened the door, a woman dressed like a servant walked in and called her ladyship insincerely. She put a kraft paper bag on the table.
"You can eat if you are hungry." Then she left home directly.
Putting food into the fridge, Pauline went upstairs slowly to have a rest in a comfortable posture . Everything in the house was strange to her. Except for meals sent by someone every week, it seemed that Frank Gu had completely forgotten her.
She turned on the hot water, but found that there was no hot water. When aunt came next week, Pauline would ask her to tell Frank Gu. Pauline Xia hurriedly wiped her body with cold water and huddled up on the bed. The infinite coldness in the empty room made her lift the quilt.
She felt hot all over her body, probably she had a fever, but how could she take medicine, for the sake of the child? She just needed to sleep a little longer and would be fine tomorrow morning. Look, how obedient she was and how good she was at comforting herself!
"You've gone too far. She's pregnant. Don't torture her all the time. The Xia clan has made up for what they owe you. She's innocent. How can you do this to her?" Pauline Xia felt so weak that she could only hear two women talking. One of them gave her an injection and the other gave her medicine.
Pauline Xia didn't know how long she had slept before she finally woke up. But her head was heavy and her body was burning.
Hearing footsteps, she was overjoyed. She took a look at the time and got out of bed in a hurry. As expected, she saw that Frank Gu was sitting at the table. When he lived at home in the past, she would make breakfast for him. He had gastritis, and if he didn't eat well, he would suffer, and his face would be pale with pain.
Seeing that Pauline walked down, Frank Gu stood up but did not help her. He just took a kraft paper bag from the cabinet behind and waited for Pauline to walk to the left. Then, Frank Gu put the documents, pen and ink in front of her.
She had guessed what it was, but she didn't want to say anything. She just felt sorry
He said in a cold tone, as if Pauline was just a partner threatened by him. "Although I didn't plan to divorce before, the situation is different now. I'm going to take back Cassandra."
Pauline didn't say a word. She just felt the pressure in her throat.
"It's not easy for her to stay abroad. She needs someone to take care of her. I'll change a house for you in a few days. Cassandra wants to live here."
