Chapter 19
Eating me without a full stomach I thought for a long time that I still had to tell Zain about the pregnancy.
When I pulled out my phone again and found Zain Yi’s phone number, after a few seconds of hesitation, I finally dialed his number, it rang twice, and his side hung up.
I felt badly in my heart and began to wonder if he had some woman with him and couldn’t easily take my call, or if he was really tired of playing with me, so he used the excuse of a business trip and was actually trying to virtually kick me out.
I had all sorts of ambiguous scenes in my head, beautiful women of all colors surrounding Zain Yi, the way he was squinting and enjoying himself, letting me hiss next to him, and he barely paid any attention.
Then suddenly, my cell phone rang, I was shocked, and dropped it on the ground, I looked down, it was called by Zain, I immediately bent down to pick it up, and frantically pressed the answer key “hello”.
“What’s wrong?” Zain Yi asked softly, his magnetic voice as comforting as the spring breeze on his face.
“Nothing, just wanted to ask what you’re doing.” I echoed, speaking my true feelings, but I actually wanted to question why he had just hung up on me, if he had done something shady.
I suddenly realized that I was a bit like a grumbling woman, deeply afraid that I couldn’t catch my man’s heart, like a thief, always watching, just in case my man was coveted by others.
Zain laughed out loud on the other end of the phone and asked rhetorically, “Is it an inspection job?”
I panicked and covered my chest, and after trying to calm down, I replied, “No. Would I be that insecure? You can’t even hold on to your own man.”
The words fell, I instantly felt so stupid, I failed in marriage once, is not to be unable to keep their own man, now even have the face to say confidence, moving stones to hit their own feet is almost the same.
“Just accompanied a guest for dinner, my side is lunch time, home should be more than seven o’clock at night!” Zain Yi really knows me well and directly explained the reason why he just hung up the phone.
I gave a soft “hmm” and he asked again, “Have you eaten?”
I covered my slightly screaming stomach and lied, “Eat it.”
“Don’t lie to me!” Zain Yi warned, “I thought I heard your stomach scream, it’s very rhythmic.”
I puffed out a laugh, all the unpleasantness and haze of this evening instantly dissipated, and my whole mood lightened up after the phone call with Zain Yi.
“Zain, I have something I want to tell you.” I wanted to talk about the baby in my stomach while he was still in a good mood.
“What is it?”
“Do you like children?” As soon as the words were out of my mouth, I felt sure he’d suspect I was pregnant if I asked that, so I immediately changed my mind and said, “The neighbor’s kid came over to play today, and it was cute.”
“Neighbors?” Zain Yi asked suspiciously on the other end of the phone, “I don’t think the apartment across the street from you is rented out yet!”
Being reminded by Zain Yi like this, I felt so defeated that I was embarrassed to the extreme to even tell a lie and be directly pierced.
“Cynthia Mo, do you have something to hide from me?” Zain pursued with concern.
I purse my lips, my brain a mess, do I tell him what if he makes me abort the baby? In fact, he should have been able to pick up on some of the questions I had just blurted out, he was so smart, how could he not have heard that there was a possibility of pregnancy when I had been with him for so many days and hadn’t taken any steps.
Or is he playing dumb and just doesn’t want to hear that I’m pregnant?
“It’s okay, if you’re busy, go get busy!” I answered in a lonely voice and just hung up without waiting for his response.
It was simple, it was just a sentence, but I didn’t dare to tell him that I was pregnant, I was afraid that he would make me abort the baby, it was my first child, the moment I found out that I was pregnant, even though I didn’t know how to be a mother, it was a wonderful feeling that I was looking forward to.
I sat quietly in the middle of the hall, I was hungry, but as soon as the phone hung up, I was so preoccupied I forgot my hunger until the door was knocked on a few times and I went up to open it, instantly smelling the smell of food.
“Hello, is this Ms. Cynthia Mo? The rib rice and fresh ginger fried duck nuggets you ordered from our shop have been delivered for you. Please check and sign for it.”
I was surprised and looked at the delivery boy and asked in puzzlement, “I didn’t order takeaway.”
I saw that the delivery guy showed me his mobile phone order, the delivery address was indeed mine, and the money had been paid for.
Who was so sweet to know that I was hungry at this time of the day?
After I signed for it, I walked in with the food that was radiating heat, and my phone’s microphones sounded, and when I looked, it was from Zain, and it said, “Don’t be hungry, wait for me to return if you haven’t eaten enough, I’ll let you eat a full meal.”
His ambiguous and revealing text message made me unable to slow down for a long time.
Chapter 20
Uneducated Woman I don’t know how I finished eating the food Zain Yi ordered for me, just finished eating, a wave of nausea came up, I quickly ran to the bathroom, directly leaned against the toilet and vomited.
It could be that I ate too fast, or it could be that I was starting to react, I couldn’t tell what the hell was going on right now, I just sat quietly on the cold tile of the floor and covered my sore eyes in agony.
I was contemplating whether or not to keep the baby, but the next day I received a strange phone call from someone claiming to be Zain’s grandmother, saying she wanted to meet me.
I don’t know how she got my cell phone number, but as a senior, I naturally had to go if my elders wanted to see me, so I switched shifts with a colleague for the evening shift.
Zain Yi’s grandmother asked me to go to the Left Bank Cafe, I arrived there at about ten o’clock, once inside, I saw Qiana Rouf, and an elegant old man with silver hair beside her, I walked over slowly in a complicated mood, and when my eyes met, I nodded slightly and greeted politely.
“Sit down, Miss Mo.” The old man’s serious face and the stare of his eyes made me feel unusually oppressed, and I sat constrainedly across from the two of them, my eyes swinging left and right somewhat at a loss for words.
It was obvious to me that Zain Yi’s grandmother was staring at me, and I didn’t have the courage to raise my head to meet her gaze.
“Miss Mo used to be a model?” The old man’s voice was a little raspy, very heavy, and he spat the words clearly, so I nodded slightly.
“I’ve been a model for over a year.”
“Divorced?”
“Yes, divorced.” I answered truthfully, I didn’t know what kind of image the model and divorced me would have in the eyes of Zain Yi’s grandmother.
I didn’t realize that as soon as I finished answering, I fell into a damn silence, and that Ogie was sitting nicely on the sidelines, not saying a word. I didn’t order any coffee, so I asked for a glass of water.
The first thing you need to do is to take a sip to moisten your throat, and then lower your head.
Less talk, more wrong, I understand this principle.
“Miss Mo should know our Zain’s identity, the Yi family’s future mistress must be a family, I say this, Miss Mo understand what I mean?” The old man, after a long silence, hit the nail on the head with the purpose of this meeting with me.
In fact, I had a guess that it might be about Zain’s business, or that he wanted me to leave Zain Yi, but when these words were actually said, my heart hurt raw as if I had been cut by a sharp instrument.
I pursed my lips, lifted my head, and smiled bitterly, “I know.”
“If you know, why are you still pestering Zain, are you trying to marry into a noble family again as a young lady?” The misunderstandings of the old man’s family made me feel extremely bad. I know that with my current status, many people must have misunderstood that my divorce was just to pick up a higher branch and continue to climb. In the eyes of the world, modeling I should be the kind of gold-worshipping girl who is determined to squeeze into the rich family!
Even if I denied it would be useless at all, then I’d rather be silent.
“Is silence a default?” The old man continued to press the issue, and I knew someone must have said something bad about me in front of her, or we wouldn’t have had to be so aggressive when we first met.
“Zain Yi and I are just ordinary friends.” I took a few breaths under my breath, and I lied to make myself less embarrassed.
“Ordinary friends?” The old man looked at me suspiciously, “A regular friend who’s had s3x?”
As soon as I heard this, I understood that Grandma Zain must have had someone check my details, and I guess what she just said was considered polite.
I stubbornly let the tears I was embarrassed to want to cry stay within my eyes, but the corners of my eyes were slightly red and sore, I pursed my lips and replied, “Your old man can say what you want to say straightforwardly, there’s no need for you to be so polite to someone like me.”
“Then I’ll be straightforward, Miss Mo, you are not suitable for our Zain, you are divorced, certain professions you do are not decent, your family situation is even worse to the extreme, our Yi family cannot accept a woman with such a humble status, you’d better not presume to conceive a child to threaten Zain, it’s foolish to try to use a child to tie up a man. ” The old man’s words were etched on my heart like a brand.
My heart pumped a few times and I nodded, “I understand.”
“Good to understand.” The corners of the old man’s mouth turned up slightly, and Qiana Rouf, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up.
“Miss Mo, I hope that you won’t say anything to Brother Zain about today’s meeting.”
I didn’t reply, just looked at her quietly, her seemingly clear eyes turned out to be hiding so much heart. I slowly got up, looked at the old man and Qiana Rouf, and said softly, “I have something else to do, I’ll leave first.”
As soon as I took a few steps, I vaguely heard Zain’s grandmother behind me say to Qiana Rouf, “Sure enough, she is an uneducated woman, she doesn’t even know basic manners.”
My heart sank, I pursed my lips and quickened my steps to leave this overly hierarchical place.
