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
Catherine’s POVWhat Alena said did sound interesting. But how to make that scenario actually happen?Bringing Vanessa to put her in that situation is not an easy thing. Fishing for her also required something that could really get her interested, while I didn't know her very well.I didn't know what she was interested in and what she usually did. Even the stories about her from Anne and Jaxon never talked about her life in detail. So, where to start to get her into the trap?I settled Alena, who settled towards me with a smile on her lips and eyes. "But how? Do you have a plan?" I placed my fingers tapping on the surface of the table.Alena smiled serenely. She turned her eyes to stare at her lattice cup. "We can think of a way later. Preparing something hastily will hurt us." She turned her gaze to me. "So you don't have to rush around trying to figure out how to ruin it. The idea will come to us on its own." She rubbed my shoulder lightly."Right." Grace nodded. Grace's eyes looked
Jaxon’s POVIf I think about it, what Catherine said was the right thing. For a moment, I forgot what kind of influence Catherine had because my work wasn't going well enough.Right now, I did get a job at one of the companies owned by Catherine's father. But this is not a great thing, not something to be so proud of.I'm still in a reasonably low position and not very influential. Maybe it's because I still haven't made it big."In that case, I must make the most of this situation. While Catherine is eager for marriage, then I must make it happen soon so that what will be hers will be mine immediately." I wiggled my legs, swinging in my chair.Inside my office, I swiveled my chair cheerfully. My mood was really good at the moment. It was because of Cathrine.Somehow, I thought marrying her this time would bring me a lot of luck. Because Catherine is a rich woman, but she doesn't know anything about work. She only knows how to play and have fun.I can make her enjoy that period for qu
