All Chapters of The Seventh Wife of Alpha : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Lillian's perspective.Ever since she found out that I was pregnant, Meylani had appeared to be unchanging in her strictness toward me. However, when no one was looking, not only did she order the chef to make me nutritious meals every day, but she also inquired about my health endlessly.However, I wasn't exactly euphoric about the change in her attitude, because I knew that everything she was doing was for the baby in my belly.I knew for a fact that without the child, I would still be a nobody—or worse, nothing—to the Amus family!It was the weekend. When it was time for breakfast, Melylani glanced at me and Ismail, who were more distant than two strangers, and said, "It's rare for the weather to be so good today. Ismail, why don't you take Chloe to shop for some new clothes and jewelry?"As soon as these words came out of her mouth, not only was everyone at the table surprised, but I was also stunned for a moment. I whipped my head toward Meylani at the same time as everyone else.

Lillian's perspectiveI stayed in the hospital for a while and lost track of time. Realizing that it was almost dinner time, I had to go back.Back at the mansion, I stepped into the main hall but found no one inside. Immediately, I quickened my pace and walked in the direction of the spiral staircase. I thought I could tip-toe to my bedroom without anyone noticing, only to run into Ismail, who was coming out of his room.Taken by surprise, I instinctively slipped my right hand, which was carrying the shopping bag, behind me.He glanced at me from head to toe and frowned, asking, "Where are the new clothes?"When we separated at the hospital gate, I had had four or five shopping bags in my hand, yet I only had one at the moment."I..." I opened my mouth, not knowing how to answer him.What kind of lie could make him believe that the clothes were still there? No lies could get past his ears."Did you return them?"How was he so accurate at guessing?It seemed that there was no need to

Lillian's perspective.I chuckled and was about to put my phone back on the table when my fingertip accidentally touched the "gallery" icon. A young girl's figure came into my sight.My hand, which was holding onto the phone, stiffened and a look of surprise appeared on my face.In total, there was only one album in his phone's gallery, in which only one photo was stored. That was to say, there was nothing else in the album except for a girl's photo.There could only be one girl who was so lucky to solely occupy his phone album: his first love, Miss Moonshine. It was a no-brainer.I knew it was unethical to peek at someone else's phone, but I still couldn't help but click into the photo. Meylani had said that the girl in the portrait was a spitting image of Miss Moonshine.I had been itching to catch a glimpse of what Miss Moonshine looked like and determine if she really did look like the girl in the portrait. However, as she had left no trace of her existence, I didn't know where to

Lillian's perspective.Ten minutes later, we found ourselves on a street bustling with food stalls.In fact, I hadn't been sure if the street would still be here; I had been trying my luck. However, when I saw that it was still standing strong and even looked livelier than before, I was absolutely thrilled.I remembered from my younger days that the food there had been the most delicious. That wouldn't have changed, right?"Have you ever been here?" I turned around and stared at him, eager to try.I hadn't eaten anything here for a long time, and the nostalgia was palpable, pulsing in the air.Looking at the sea of people in front of us, he habitually frowned and asked, "Is this the "somewhere" you mentioned?""Yeah. You know, the food here is just phenomenal. I bet you've never tried anything from this place." Even if he visited the city often, I was sure he wouldn't be caught dead eating snacks here."I'm not interested in street food." After saying that in disgust, he turned around

Lillian's perspective"That's not what I mean," I said, "the pill works—that's what I'm trying to say."Seeing him walking down the stairs to the door, I hurried forward and grabbed his arm. "Don't go yet. I made you some porridge. Have some before you leave."I led him to the table. "Let's skip the hotel food for now. Eat some lightly seasoned food and nourish your stomach."He must have woken up from hunger because as soon as he heard me say I had cooked porridge, he turned back with me.I scooped him a bowl of porridge and another for myself, then went to sit across from him."Where are you going later? Is it a new building?" I asked.Ismail gave a faint hum in response."Can you take me with you, if it's not too much trouble?" I suddenly suggested. I had stayed in the hotel the entire morning, and I didn't want to stay cooped up in there again for the afternoon."I thought you said you were familiar with the area? Why don't you walk around on your own?""Because it's boring to wal
