The day after Leyla’s wedding to Archie.
In their wedding room, Leyla woke up leisurely, looking at Archie sleeping beside her, feeling that everything was like a dream, so unreal.
“Archie, do you love me?”
Not caring about this, Leyla still asked the question that all women ask over and over again.
“Do you want to hear the truth?”
Archie smiled brightly, but the smile was vaguely mixed with a little bit of weirdness.
“Well, of course you have to hear the truth.”
Leyla lies quietly in Archie’s arms, waiting for the sweet words he will say to him.
“The truth is,” Archie’s voice was no longer soft and suddenly loud, “I have never loved you, never have, and never will!”
Just today, Archie finally showed his true face.
Leyla’s body stalled and said somewhat poutingly, “I am asking you seriously, you should stop joking.”
“I’m telling you the truth, look me in the eye.”
Archie repeated word for word, “I never loved you!”
Leyla stared at Archie, her eyes filled with disbelief at the resentment and teasing in his eyes.
“Why? If you don’t love me, why do you want to marry me?”
Leyla mumbled a question, not believing what Archie was saying at all.
“I want to get your the James Family’s property, and became the son-in-law of the James Family, as the only daughter of the James Family, the pearl of the whole family, how will your loving father not give me the property.”
“The James Family not only almost went bankrupt, but that old man Evan expelled you from the James Family. my dream was shattered, but luckily, it was easier for me to conquer you and make you my plaything.”
“I would have loved you well and given you a good life, but all the taunts and contempt you have shown me have deeply wounded my self-esteem. I want to take revenge on you, and also make you have to accept my revenge, so that’s why I married you.
“Archie’s tone was smug and calculating; he had achieved his goal.
“Why? Why won’t you let me go after I’ve been like this?” Leyla muttered.
Archie’s words, like a sharp knife, poked into her heart one by one, leaving her newly revitalized heart in tatters once again.
“You ask me the reason? The reason is that you asked for all of this!”
Archie’s face was a bit grim, “How could you get such retribution if you didn’t do so many things that hurt God! I even lost my legs now, so thank God that you only received such a light punishment. However, you will have to suffer this punishment for the rest of your life, hahahahaha!”
Since having his legs broken, Archie’s psyche has become somewhat deformed, he hates that no one will end up well, the more miserable they are, the happier he will be!
Leyla’s heart, completely and utterly, died.
I thought I had found my own love, away from all the rivalry, to live some ordinary life, but even this has become a luxury.
It was her life, and she had to obey it.
Day by day, Dolly’s belly is getting bigger and bigger.
It is now four months since the pregnancy first started.
Dolly has long since quit her job at Hurricane Limited to stay at home and take care of her health.
Brayden also comes back to spend time with Dolly whenever he can, so that she won’t feel lonely alone.
“Dolly, I’m home.”
After the company’s business, Brayden hoofed it home and looked at Dolly on the couch reading a parenting book, Brayden couldn’t help but smile.
“Dolly, you’re only four months old now, there’s no rush to see this kind of stuff.”
Brayden came to Dolly’s side and said gently.
“Anyway, I have nothing to do at home now, so I can read these things. I have never brought up a child before, I have no experience at all, and I will be taught by these books.”
Dolly didn’t turn her head, still concentrating on the book in her hands.
Brayden sat down on the couch, swept Dolly into his arms, looked at her exquisitely beautiful side and smiled happily.
“This child was not even born and began to steal my wife’s love for me, when the first born, I will not have no status in this family!” Brayden said pretending to be jealous.
Listening to Brayden’s words, Dolly put down the book she was holding, “How old are you, still fighting with your own children to get jealous, too childish!”
“Then I don’t care, in the future, except for taking care of the little one, the rest of the time is mine, no one is allowed to grab it.”
Brayden defended his dignity like a small child, not allowing himself to be taken advantage of by a yet unborn.
“Fine, fine, all according to you, whatever you say.”
Dolly said obediently, not really wanting to get into anything with this person who was fighting with a child.
“By the way Brayden, isn’t it time to go to the hospital to check our baby, is it a boy or a girl?”
Dolly said to Brayden as if something had occurred to her.
“It’s OK, but are boys and girls important to you?” Brayden said with a smile.
“Of course it’s important to know whether it’s a boy or a girl so I can target some parenting books and do some proper fetal education for our child.
Otherwise it is too late to know, if the one in the belly is a boy, but I give him a girl’s birth, the child grows up with a girl’s personality how ah.”
