Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)
Chapter 1058

As she really wanted to celebrate with him, Lauren put all her heart and soul into preparing a special dinner. Suddenly, she remembered a crepe that she had eaten before. Suddenly inspired, she decided to make just that. After making the bone broth, she estimated the time she had and cooked two more dishes and arranged them on a plate. Then, she cut up some cucumbers, carrots, cabbage and scallions to make the dressing. She also added the sauce.

She looked at the two rows of small square plates neatly placed on the table. There was meat for protein, and vegetables. Although there were all types of dishes, it all looked very elegant. She put seven of the small plates together and glanced at them, feeling as if there was something lacking. "Vegetables, meats, beans..." She mumbled to herself.

With a sudden stroke of enlightenment, she shouted, "Oh, right! Eggs!"

She made some egg crepes, shredded them, and put them on a plate. There were eight dishes on the table then. At a glance, they were neatly organized and looked very delicious. "Perfect..."

Lauren was very pleased with her masterpiece. She divided the sauce into two portions and placed them on both sides. Then, she took out a large, round plate and put it on the side.

She just had to make a few more crepes and a tomato and egg soup, then she was done!

Seeing that it was almost six o'clock, she thought he would be home soon if he didn't have any social engagements. Hurriedly, she mixed the flour batter, fried a dozen crepes, and arranged them on a plate.

Just as she was about to make the soup, she faintly heard the sound of a car. Lauren looked up and smiled. "What a coincidence, just in time!" she exclaimed to herself.

She brought the soup to a boil, then added the eggs to it. Soon, the smell of egg soup wafted out of the kitchen.

Afterwards, Lauren turned off the fire and cleaned up briskly. She washed her hands and prepared to go out to meet the person she had been expecting. Suddenly, the clacking sound of high heels was heard. She suddenly paused. Was it a woman?

Who could it be, with such rushed footsteps? The footsteps of the servants with the shoes that they wore were either soft or totally inaudible, but that...

Although she hadn't lived there long, and she had no idea what Willy's lifestyle was like in the public, but as far as she knew, he had never brought a woman home other than her!

The truth was, she could understand that a rich and powerful man like him might have a whole flock of women outside as she thought about it. He wouldn't bring them home just like that, either. If it wasn't for the fact that she was pregnant, she might not have had the honor. At least she still had that much self-awareness!

However, who could it be?

Just as she was wondering, an elegant figure appeared along with the sound of footsteps. The woman was wearing a long, emerald green midlength dress and a light-colored cashmere coat. She donned a pair of black leather high heels of medium height. Her makeup was exquisite, with her hair styled in a simple bun, and there were a pair of small diamond earrings dangling from her ears. She was carrying an expensive leather bag that matched her attire's color. One could tell she had a refined life which she wasn't required to do hard work looking at her fair and slender fingers. A large diamond ring was sparkling between her fingers.

This woman's figure was stunning, her disposition elegant. She was filled with a noble charisma from head to toe. Right then, she looked down on Lauren with a lofty posture, and there was a huge group of servants behind her.

They stared at each other and was sizing each other up. Lauren could clearly smell the hostility coming from this woman. She had a very strong instinct that she came for her! However, as she looked at her somewhat sophisticated attire, she felt that it wasn't Willy's taste. Even if the woman looked well maintained, she could see that she was slightly on the mature side as she was at least in her thirties, much older than him!

No matter who she was and what she was thinking, it likely had nothing to do with her!

Her lips had already parted, but before Lauren could say anything, a sharp, boisterous voice smashed towards her like a gust of wind. "Are you the one trying to use your child as a means of getting rich?"

That tone...

Was she questioning her in contempt with a trace of displeasure? Also, she made it all sounded so justified!

Suddenly, Lauren's eyes widened. Was she Willy's mother? If so, wasn't she a bit too young?

Earlier, she hadn't dared to think of that at all!

At that moment, Willy's mother, Vanessa's eyes fell on her clearly swelling belly. Her expression suddenly changed. "Don't you ever think that you can worm your way into the Bowles family registry just because you're carrying Willy's child. Shouldn't you take a look at your own identity and background?" Vanessa looked at the table and flipped it over in anger.

"As long as the child is a part of the

Bowles family I'll raise as many as you can give birth to. However, the Bowles family has a very high standard and you can't get in just by these gimmicks! You got pregnant before even getting married, Women nowadays, how promiscuous! You have no status in the family, and you were even employing all these little tricks. Does my son really have no one better to go for?"

As she scolded her, Vanessa glanced at the table as she pondered.

The servants were so frightened at the chaotic scene that they all bowed their heads and took a few steps back.

Lauren's face blanched. Her heart burned with anger and she felt terrible, but she still bit her lip, neither explaining nor standing up for herself. After all, she was Willy's mother, and it was the Bowles family. Although her tone was bad, she wasn't entirely wrong.

In the end, Lauren was the one who had given them a reason to replace fault with her.

At that moment, she clenched her fist and hated Willy to the core!

Seeing her with her head lowered and not saying a word made Vanessa even angrier. Her mind was resounding with the gossips she had heard.

They said that Willy was being seduced and pestered by a shameless woman. They said that she did everything just to be with Willy, and even secretly got pregnant. She was trying to weasel her way into the Bowles family using the baby!

If she was a well-mannered girl, Vanessa would have somehow accepted the mistake Willy had made! After all, it took two to tango!

What she hated most was the despicable girl, Lauren, who looked nice, innocent and pathetic. Despite that, the truth was she was scheming, and was very cunning. Granted, her family background was average, but she actually had a criminal record!

Thinking about those rumors, Vanessa was so furious that her head throbbed in pain. She knew Willy's temper very well. Lauren must have done quite a lot to be able to get him to take her home!

When she saw those things scattered on the table and the floor, she got even madder. In the unlikely event that she married Willy, she would surely make him into a laughingstock!

"I suggest you better behave

yourself, or better yet, drop the idea

totally! Stop acting like a

goody-two-shoes, I don't buy it! My daughter-in-law will never be a woman with a criminal record without a good reputation, even if she's not from a rich family! Look at yourself, do you really think an ugly duckling can become a swan? In your dreams!"

"Madam Vanessa, please drink some water and don't be so angry. You must be tired! Do you want to go out and take a break?"

The butler took the risk and ventured up to the front. As soon as he said that, Vanessa gave him a look. "It's none of your business! Go away!" Turning around, she gazed at Lauren again, puffing with rage.

"I'm warning you, if you continue to pester my son in the future, then don't blame me for being unkind to you! Don't think of the thing in your belly as a powerful pass for everything you want to get! There are plenty of women who are eager to carry on the Bowles family name! Whether your child woulebbe considered illegitimate or not is completely up to me!"

Just as she finished her words, they heard a low voice. "Mom?"
