I was momentarily stunned. “Parting ways in a civil manner. Getting divorce papers processed

immediately.”

Impossible.” Theo was quick to reject the idea, his voice cold.

I scorned him. “Then completely break things off with Cindy Reed. Give her enough money to move to

another city and have her live there. Swear to me that you won’t see her again for the rest of your life.”

“Who are you to tell me what to do with m y life, Wanda Lane?!” Cindy barged in unannounced to

shriek at me menacingly.

This time, my calmness even surprised myself. I looked at her and responded quietly, “Why can’t 1?

Theo refuses to let me go, so he should let you go instead.”

You… L… Theowy will never let me go!” Cindy was so agitated she no longer made any sense. 1

I did not want to argue with her, so I

turned around and walked back to my seat. I grabbed my bag and said to Xander, “Am I still sending

you back? Let’s go.”

“Right away. Right away!” Xander hastily paid the bill after hearing the edge in my tone

I did not say anything during the entire journey. Xander was surprisingly quiet, staring at me from the

passenger seat.

“Do I have something on my face?” I was slightly uncomfortable with being stared at, so I broke the

silence

You’ve changed, Wandy,” Xander commented sentimentally after a long

pause

Change is inevitable for humans.” There was nothing as constant in this world as change. The things

we thought would never change usually end up morphing into something else when given enough

timne

“Fantastic, then. This is the real you now. That timid little Wanda Lane mask you wore in the past really

did not suit you.” Xander leaned back against the car seat, a

n inexplicable eagerness etched across his face,

I did not respond to that, focusing on driving instead

There was no mask that I had deliberately put on in the past. There was just a certain lowness in the

love I was being given that made it possible for me to endure it all silently.

Things were changing now, especially when it came to Theo. The change in his attitude towards me

had sent ripples of change into my heart and my mindset. I wanted more, but I could not get past the

hurdle in my heart.

After sending Xander home, I went backt o Cecilia’s place. To my surprise, she was

“I thought you wanted to stay out a little longer?” My body was aching, sol laid on the sofa the moment I

got inside.

That was what I wanted to do, but you’re more important to me than that, S o I came back to be with

you!” She walked over and pulled me into a bear hug.

I hugged her back

We never needed words to communicate We could tell how the other was feeling with just a look or a

gesture.

After what seemed like forever, I spoke softly. “I didn’t abort the child, Cecilia.”

**I knew it. I was waiting for you to tell m e that.” Cecilia’s reply caught me off guard.

I shot up in astonishment. “How did you know?

“You’re frequently nauseous, you don’t have much appetite, and you’ve stopped drinking coffee and

alcohol.” She rolled her eyes and continued, “Even I could tell, with your constant puking. Did you really

think you could hide it from Theo?”

Well, you know his heart isn’t with me, s u I doubt that he’d notice. Don’t worry.” I laid back down on the

sola once more

Despite my words, I was still deeply unsure. Theo’s attitude change and his seemingly boundless grace

toward me smelled a little fishy to me

However, if he really had doubts, why did he not call me out for it? I had never understood him after all

these years, had never known what he was thinking about.

“You still have to go to work. You really shouldn’t go around puking like that.” Cecilia laid down beside

me, laying my head on her abdomen.

She was right. I would be having several eating engagements soon, and puking during meals would be

extremely suspicious.

After some contemplation, I picked up m y phone and called Mason Lynch.

With my prior experience in hand, I waited for him to speak first before asking, “Doctor Lynch, I’ve been

really nauseous lately. Could you please help me

You can’t take any more medication right now, it won’t be good for the baby… Okay, you know what? I’ll

ask Cain for some medicinal cuisines that can help with that.” Mason’s tone was as aloof as usual.

Nhad nearly forgotten that Cain Hendrick

Tad nearly forgotten that Cain Hendrick Was Theo’s high school buddy, which meant that he was also

schoolmates with

Mason

“Thank you, Doctor Lynch.” I was very grateful for his kindness.

After I hung up, Cecilia looked at me questioningly. “What’s with you and this Doctor Lynch? Why do I

feel like he cares more about the baby than the real baby daddy does?”
