Valeria and Bobby turned their heads to find William looking at them with a faint smile at the door of the kitchen, “What are you two sneaking around for?”
“Nothing! We’re not sneaking around! I just wanted Bobby to buy me some walnut cake!” She made up a random excuse on the spot.
“You wouldn’t need to hide here if you just wanted to ask him to buy you cake.” William walked in and examined her face.
“Honey, what are you doing? Are you not going to let me eat walnut cake? Bobby, go buy it right now! Hurry up, I’m going to starve to death! What if it affects the baby in my stomach?”
She gave Bobby a look to tell him to leave immediately, but William stopped him and said, “Why are you lying to me? Do you think I’m a fool?”
“What do you mean? I’m not lying!”
“Stop pretending! I’ve seen the viral video online. It’s your work, isn’t it?” His eyes darted to her.
“Yes! I was behind it, and I forced Bobby to help me with it!” She admitted straightforwardly, “This has nothing to do with him, and I forced him to send the message with your phone. I even said that I would fire him if he didn’t help me, so he had no choice! If you’re mad, take it out on me!”
William stared at her with a fake smile, and she reached out to grab his hand, “You can’t bear to punish me, right, honey? It hasn’t even been three months since my pregnancy, I won’t be able to bear your punishments!”
She rubbed her belly as she spoke, and William laughed, “Stop pretending. I know it’s already been three months. In fact, today is three full months and a day, to be precise!”
She was embarrassed, “Umm… How did you know?”
“I’ve been looking forward to it, so I keep track of it every day. How can I not know?” He answered.
“Well, sure, I’ve been pregnant for three months, but it doesn’t mean that there is no risk. Besides, I was the one who ordered Bobby around today, so it has nothing to do with him. Let’s go back and talk. Bobby, just go and buy the cake now.”
She dragged William to the study room, while Bobby watched them and shook his head as a warm smile appeared on his face. Valeria was too cute!
After dragging William into the study room, she closed the door and said, “Hubby! Honey! My dear! Are you angry with me? Will you stop being angry if I give you a peck?”
He couldn’t hold back from her sultry tone anymore, so he grabbed her face and said, “What do you want me to say to you? Don’t you feel guilty for taking advantage of me?”
“I was just too angry. Do you know what Natasya, that bitch, has done? She bought origami paper to fold for your birthday present! How can she do something like that for my husband! I couldn’t take it.”
Looking at her miserable expression, he shook his head and said, “But you started it, right? If you didn’t make my birthday a trending topic, how would she know that my birthday was coming?”
“That’s because I love you, so I want to celebrate your birthday!” She retorted.
“Alright, stop pretending. If it was in the name of love, you wouldn’t have lied to me saying you haven’t been pregnant for three months!”
“But I helped you last night. You can’t just forget about that!”
“Are you still feeling wronged?” He was both angry and amused, “You can even order Bobby to do things for you now. There’s nothing else that you don’t dare to do!”
“Bobby had no choice. I forced him to do it, so don’t blame him!” She spoke up for Bobby, afraid that William would punish him.
He was amused by her silly yet adorable face, “Who wanted to bribe Bobby with money just now? Even mentioning his age and marital status… Honey, do you think he lacks money?”
Since she was already exposed, she stopped pretending, “Does he not? His clothes look so old, if he is not short on money, why would he wear old clothes?”
“It’s so that he won’t attract attention. Let me tell you, Bobby is richer than you think.”
“Really?” She asked.
“Yes. He was the one who gave me the start-up funds for my first business. If it weren’t for him, where would I get the money with Charles restricting me?”
“So, Bobby is a major shareholder?”
“Yes.”
“Since he’s a shareholder, why is he your bodyguard? How weird!”
“Don’t worry about him anymore. Anyway, he can’t be bribed with money. The reason why he helped you is that you are my wife, the one I love, and the one I want to protect all my life!”
She blushed and said awkwardly, “Why didn’t you tell me? I… Anyway, it’s all your fault that I made a fool out of myself!”
“Speaking of which, I should be one who made a fool out of myself. I haven’t punished you for using my phone to send Natasya such nonsense! Hm?”
“Honey, I admit that that was wrong of me!” She immediately begged for forgiveness.
He stared at her and asked, “Do you really know you’re wrong?”
“Yes!” She answered honestly.
“Then you know what to do tonight, right?”
“I’ll be waiting for you in bed!”
He burst into laughter, “You!”
Natasya went to see William happily, only to get beaten up by Valeria and have it go viral on the internet.
Raelyn’s blood was boiling when she saw her daughter’s swollen face, the bruises on her body, and the overwhelming curses on the Internet.
Valeria was a bully for doing that to Natasya, but Raelyn had no way to deal with it. In the past, she could complain about it to Gavin, however, ever since he found out that Natasya had evil intentions with William, he no longer paid attention to her.
This time, all she could do was swallow her anger. Just as she was thinking about it, Devon, who was suspended from his job, called to complain to her, “I told you to keep a low profile. What’s going on? Why did such a scandal happen?”
“Valeria is too cunning. No one expected this to happen.”
“She is really fearless for doing this. Did you see the news? She claimed herself to be William’s wife and announced her pregnancy! Is this really true?”
“I don’t know!” She did not believe that Valeria would be pregnant, but it didn’t seem like a bluff either.
Suddenly, she connected the dots. Could the pregnancy be the reason why Valeria was hidden from the public for such a long time?
This idea fit the timing and was plausible.
Raelynn was furious about being played by her. Valeria must have thought they were fools when they were so sure that they had William under their control!
“What should we do now? Natasya won’t have a chance if Valeria is actually pregnant!”
“Who says I won’t have a chance? I will!” Natasya shouted in a hoarse voice with a swollen face, “I have the blood vermin, and her pregnancy is a good opportunity for me to control William and ask him to get rid of that child! There are two more days until my vermin is ready, so let’s see who will be the true winner in the end!”
