Chapter 125

Author: Glazed Snow
"Wendy, can't you just be obedient?"

When Stanley said those words with his deep, gravelly voice, something in Wendy's heart softened.

Stanley really did want her to be obedient.

In the more than three years of their marriage, although she had taken care of him while he was in a coma, he had also given her a very generous material compensation. He sent her to Clavendale University, and all he wanted was for their relationship to end there.

But she wasn't being obedient at all. Just last nig

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1167

    Really?All Ivy had to do was crook a finger, and Nathan would come running?Ivy wasn't nearly that optimistic.Still, since Nathan clearly didn't want a divorce, she decided she would take this marriage seriously and make it work."You can get back to work," she said."Alright."Madge left the office looking unusually cheerful.Ivy pulled out her design drafts and returned to work, focusing on refining the details of her latest project.Before long, the workday ended.Ivy left the studio and drove back to the villa.Wanda hurried out to greet her the moment she walked in. "Mrs. Lowe, how did the checkup go today?"Ivy smiled. "Everything's normal. The baby's healthy.""That's wonderful news! Dinner's ready. Come eat while it's hot."Ivy sat at the dining table while Wanda brought out a spread of comfort food."Did Mr. Lowe go with you to the appointment today?" Wanda asked.Ivy looked up at her. "Yes, he did. Honestly, you've misunderstood Nathan. He's actually been ver

    Ivy reached out and tapped Madge lightly on the head. "I've noticed you don't listen to me much lately."Madge grinned. "I'm just trying to give you two some private time.""We don't need private time," Ivy said quickly.Madge rested her chin on her hand. "That's not what it looked like a while ago. You were practically glued together. Now, something's off. I can feel it."Was it that obvious?"I honestly think Mr. Lowe is into you," Madge said."He's into me?" Ivy let out a dry laugh. "You've got to be kidding. He doesn't. We're in a business marriage. Feelings aren't necessary."Madge raised a brow. "If he didn't have feelings for you at all, how did you end up pregnant?"Ivy paused.They had been happy in bed. That part had never been a lie."I still think you two could go back to how things were," Madge said. "You used to cling to him, act cute, lean on him. He liked that. Can't you tell he falls for it every time?"Did he?Back then, she had done all of that because sh

    Nathan said he wouldn't agree to a divorce.Ivy froze. She had been sure he couldn't wait to end this. She had imagined him dragging her straight to the courthouse to file the papers.Instead, he said no."Why?" she asked, her voice tight. "Do you want me to get rid of the baby?"Nathan's jaw clenched. "Listen carefully. I might not have planned on being a dad, but the baby's already here. That's my child, and I want it."Her mind went blank. "You want to fight me for custody?""Yes. I want the baby."She had always thought he didn't care about kids. She never expected this."No. That's not happening. I'm not giving you this baby.""Why not?""Because this baby is mine. I'm the one carrying the baby. Of course I won't give it." Her voice shook now. "You can remarry. There are plenty of women out there who'd love to have your kids. But I only get this one."Nathan grabbed her chin lightly, forcing her to look at him. "What do you mean, you only get this one? After we divorce,

    "I'm not," Ivy said.Nathan's eyes narrowed. "What, you think I'm going to eat you?"Ivy paused before saying, "No."A crooked smile tugged at his mouth. "That'd better be true. If anything, you were the one who always came after me. When did I ever go after you?"The teasing edge in his voice made her lashes tremble.He reached out and pinched her cheek lightly. "What's this now? Acting like you don't know me?" His fingertips brushed slowly across her skin. "Or are you playing innocent? Trying that push and pull thing on me?"The heat on Ivy's face spread all the way to her ears. "I know you're still mad."He gave a short, humorless laugh. "I was starting to think you didn't.""I do.""If you know I'm mad, then what exactly have you done about it?""I've stayed out of your way. I keep my distance. I try not to show up where you are. Isn't that enough?" Ivy said. For a second, he had no response.She studied his dark expression. "If that's still not enough, I can move ou

    Nathan froze. What? Massage Ivy's stomach?Yeah, no. That wasn't happening."Doctor, that's really not necessary," Ivy said quickly. "My husband's very busy."She started to sit up.Nathan stopped her. "It's fine. I'll learn."He placed his hand gently on her lower abdomen.Ivy flinched."What?" he asked. "Are my hands cold?"She shook her head. "No."They were warm. In the middle of winter, his touch felt like a heater. Cold was the last word she would use.She had flinched because it caught her off guard. She didn't expect the sudden contact, and in front of other people, no less."Good," the doctor said. "Just rest your hand there and move in slow circles clockwise. Keep it gentle."Nathan followed the instructions, his palm moving carefully. He looked down at her. "How's this? Does it hurt?"Ivy's small face turned pink. "No. It's fine.""You can also talk to the baby at night," the doctor added. "Lean close to her stomach and let the baby hear your voice. When the

    Ivy's heart tightened.If she had told Nathan, would he have come?Seeing her stay quiet, Nathan frowned. "Wanda told me to come. If I didn't, she'd never stop talking about it."So he was here because Wanda pushed him.Ivy understood. It seemed that he hadn't planned on coming. That explained everything."I'll explain it to Wanda," Ivy said softly. "If you're busy, you can go."Madge jumped in right away. "Mr. Lowe, this is Ivy's first prenatal appointment. They're doing an ultrasound to check the baby's development. You should stay. Look around. Every other couple here came together. Work can wait. Ivy's more important.""Stop," Ivy cut in quickly.Madge scrunched her face but stayed quiet."Things aren't busy at work today. I'll stay with you," Nathan said. He took the paperwork from Ivy's hand. "Let's go."She blinked. "Go where?""Inside. You've got a checkup, right?"He was really staying.That surprised her.The three of them walked into the doctor's office. The do
