When Julian Vance and Wendy's bed photos hit the headlines again. Everyone was speculating how I would go crazy this time. Julian even abandoned a multi-million dollar business deal he was negotiating to explain to me. "About the bed photos, Wendy is also a victim, don't you..." I touched my pregnant belly, didn't argue or make trouble. "Rest assured, I understand." Julian sat down satisfied, but I thought to myself. He is not a qualified husband, fortunately, I am not a perfect wife either. Chapter 1 [Your appointment for prenatal checkup will start in one hour.] Phone ringtone broke the dead silence in the living room. After I turned off the phone, Julian asked me. "Who sent the message?" I vaguely explained, "Just a physical examination message from the hospital." "I have something to deal with, won't be back tonight." Just as I was about to go out. Julian hugged my waist from behind. "Scarlett, why did you suddenly become so sensible?" Julian had a strong smell of Cologne on him. Before, I was always deeply addicted to this smell, unable to extricate myself. Now, I find it exceptionally unpleasant and disgusting. I gently pushed him away, eyes lazy. "I hate the smell on you." Julian's face turned gloomy, he pressed me against the wall, leaned down. "You really should learn from Wendy, how to please your husband." His breath sprayed on my neck, words ambiguous. "How about one day, I let Wendy teach you some tricks, so you can keep me longer." I turned my head away not wanting to look at him, Julian touched my chin. "You being so obedient is somewhat novel." He wanted to kiss me, pushed away by me, he wasn't angry either. "Aren't you going to the hospital, I'll send you." I frowned looking at Julian opening the car door for me, still got in. Opened the door, the passenger seat cushion turned pink, even the seat belt was in the shape of a bear. Julian chuckled indifferently, "Little girls love these pink things, unlike you." I looked at that passenger seat, eyes a bit sore. Which girl doesn't love pink? I also wanted to decorate the passenger seat of Julian's car in pink once. But Julian directly rejected me. He said, "Pink is tender, how old are you now?" That year, I was only twenty-five. Perhaps my face was indeed not good, Julian promised me. "Tomorrow I'll have someone remove these things." I closed the car door, got into the back seat, "It's okay, little girl, understandable." Julian's lips almost pressed into a straight line, silent all the way. Just entered the hospital gate, Wendy pounced towards Julian. Even subtly pushed me, luckily I was guarded against her. Otherwise very likely would fall. Julian held her, even lifted her butt up a few times. "Stop it." Although his words were blaming, the tone was exceptionally gentle. Turns out he didn't specially send me to the hospital. Just on the way. I didn't want to watch them flirt anymore, turned and walked towards the hospital interior. Julian wanted to chase me, but was pulled by acting spoiled Wendy. "Brother Julian, I also feel a bit uncomfortable." Such means, I have seen often. Last time, was at a charity gala. Wendy bid against me on the same stage, but failed due to insufficient financial resources. Julian thought I bullied her. So in front of all power holders in New York, he made me lose face. Let me lose face completely in the circle. Even if I took out evidence, but Wendy just casually acted spoiled and silly. Julian unhesitatingly favored her. Thinking of this, I shook my head self-mockingly. Agreed not to care about him anymore, why think about these. I met the doctor, she said the fetus development is all good. So, first time I got the checkup report. I sent a message to the child's dad. [Doctor said the child is all good, see you at Sky Restaurant tonight.] Phone rang, the other side replied a "Kiss" emoji. I couldn't help laughing. Chapter 2 I prepared to leave, familiar voice came from the next consulting room. My steps involuntarily stopped, looked inside. Wendy was crying in Julian's arms. "Great, Brother Julian, we finally have a child." Julian's voice soft enough to kill, "Have a child then raise well." Wendy's voice timid with probing, "Then what about Mrs. Vance?" Julian's face changed a few times, "Your child is also Mrs. Vance's child." I heard this, only felt a burst of numbness in heart. Julian doesn't love me anymore, but he refuses to divorce. Even now wants me to raise his illegitimate child. But, based on what? I didn't want to waste time here, so went out. Not far away a couple happened to come out with me. Husband carefully supported wife's waist, wife coquettishly complained. "Just pregnant, not that delicate." Husband said firmly, "I can't share the pain of pregnancy, but I will do my best to take care of you." Two looked at each other and smiled, affection between each other. Scene in front was so warm, I couldn't help thinking of the past. First time learned pregnancy, I excitedly couldn't sleep all night. Next day Julian worked overtime back home, I told him first time. I searched from memory, what was Julian's reaction then? He held me spinning in the living room, like a fool. I thought that was my happiest time. But, Wendy came back not long after. My relationship with Julian went back to before. Later, that child was gone. Screech, a car stopped in front of me. Passenger window slowly lowered, Wendy smiled very proudly. She touched her belly looking at me, "Mrs. Vance, afraid have to wrong you sit in the back." "Brother Julian said I just got pregnant, can't bump in the back." Julian frowned looking at Wendy, then looked at me. "How was your doctor visit?" I put away the report, face already returned to calm. "Fine." Not waiting for Julian to speak, I rejected him first. "I told you before, not going back tonight, we are not on the way." Wendy pretended "Oh". "Mrs. Vance said right, not same road indeed can't walk together, forcing won't be happy." I looked at Wendy with a smile yet not a smile, "Me and Julian haven't divorced yet, not your turn a mistress to lecture me." Wendy lowered eyes, tears about to fall, grievance on body almost couldn't cover. Julian immediately distressed hugged her to comfort, then glared at me. "Scarlett, apologize." I sneered, "Why should I apologize, which sentence did I say wrong." Wendy instantly burst into tears crying extremely sad, Julian eyes sank. He let people pull me into the car, suddenly in some alley, Julian stopped the car. I watched him kiss Wendy's lips in front of me, tsk tsk saliva sound constant. What is this? Julian hugged panting Wendy teasing, "Wendy body soft like water, not hurry teach Mrs. Vance how to serve man?" Wendy laughed strangely, leaned down. Julian hand pressed Wendy's head, eyes dead staring at me. I looked at the scene in front, only felt disgusting terrible. Car door locked, I bent over constantly retching. Stomach violent spasm made me painful tears flowed full face. Don't know how long passed, Julian sighed comfortably. I wiped a tear, sat in back seat closing eyes. Julian satisfied touched Wendy's head, "You are much better than her, some people in bed like wood, boring to extreme." I had to admit, even if I already completely gave up on Julian. But hearing Julian's disgust, I still would feel a little heartache. It's okay, as long as time is long enough. I definitely can walk out. I touched my belly, felt much better in heart. Chapter 3 Afterwards, Julian let Wendy get off the car. All the way, we looked at each other speechless silence. Finally he couldn't bear it, fiercely stepped on brake. I subconsciously covered my belly, he didn't see. He smashed steering wheel eyes scarlet, "Scarlett Lane, when will you torture me until?" My face appeared sarcasm, "What did I do?" "Even you guys doing in front of me, I endured, what else you want me to do?" Julian suddenly cold face, "Wendy's child, is I didn't handle well, I apologize to you." "Her first pregnancy, crying begging me keep the child, so..." Her first pregnancy so Julian reluctant, then does he still remember how our first child was gone? When I was three months pregnant, because fetal position unstable raising fetus at home. But accidentally received Wendy's provocation video. In video, she was doing with Julian in front of French window. That French window I recognized at a glance, that was when we just married. Wedding gift Julian gave me, is a hotel exclusively under my name. That room even not open to public, but now. Julian actually messing with Wendy in that place. I received video first time killed over. I smashed whole hotel, even stripped Wendy naked threw on street. I hysterically roared at Julian. "Julian Vance, I loved you sixteen years, you also swore never fail me, why you treat me like this?" "Especially this woman, is still a chicken (prostitute)." I thought I could wake up Julian, but Julian just slow orderly buttoning buttons. "Chicken also better than you, at least she knows how to please people." That sentence directly beat me into abyss. Warm hotel four seasons like spring, I however freezing trembling all over. Also that time, let me lose first child. From that day, Julian and Wendy completely moved to table surface. They in pairs attend major banquets balls, Julian even personally help Wendy integrate into Elite Circle. With his help, Wendy step by step stood firm in circle. Even, company Wendy established faintly compete market with my company. All this, Julian saw in eyes, but never stopped. People in circle all laughing at me, licked dog licked ten years gain nothing. Julian lit a cigarette, in smoke his words came over. "And I plan, this child born give you raise." I lowered eyes cover sarcasm in eyes. Who rare your child? I not no child. "No need, I..." My words not finished, Julian already changed face. "I already guaranteed like this, why you still cold face?" I dumbfounded laugh, "Julian, how about we just calculate like this?" My voice very light, Julian suddenly sneer. "Scarlett Lane, you changed what new trick again?" No trick, I just tired. Julian suddenly answered a call. "What? I come immediately." Then he looked at me, eyes forest cold. "Don't regret." I understood warning in Julian words. But I don't want care, got off car. Almost my foot just land, car roared away. I looked at car back thinking. How anxious is he ah, to even ignore traffic lights. Clearly before, Julian was a person carved rules into bones ah. Still remember I just married into Vance family, because midnight stomach pain need family doctor. But Julian refused me with excuse family doctor on vocation, shouldn't disturb. If not I dialed emergency call myself before coma. Afraid then I would die in Vance family. Even next day, Julian came hospital see me. Also just a light sorry then ended. That time me, actually took this sentence as Julian introverted love. I shook head, hailed taxi on roadside went to Sky Hotel. But at hotel door received father's message. Chapter 4 [Lane Group recently funds somewhat difficult, I found Julian several times, he refused see me.] I looked at message frown, what is he making trouble again? Vent anger for Wendy? I replied message. [Dad, you go back first, I go find him talk.] I took out phone sent message to child's dad. [Home accident, tonight date cancel.] Phone soon rang, a message popped out. [Need my help?] I somewhat tangled, finger hovered on screen long time then reply. [Okay.] I returned Vance house. Villa brightly lit. Second floor window projected two tightly snuggled figures. That is bedroom direction. I quietly approached, heard Wendy acting spoiled. "Brother Julian, this dress indeed very good, just a bit small." Julian laughed dull, "You be careful, this is Scarlett mother's relic." Boom a sound, my brain a burst sky spin earth turn. Julian actually gave my wedding dress to Wendy wear. That dress was my mother hand made, to collect diamonds on it. She personally went South Africa mines, one by one picked for me. More for embroidering this wedding dress, tired bad eyes. Julian he clearly knew significance of this wedding dress. Suddenly, inside Wendy screamed. "Brother Julian, this dress torn, what do?" I couldn't bear anymore, directly pushed door enter. Wendy scared hid into Julian arms, I directly gave her a slap. Wendy instantly wuwuwu cried up, Julian frown. "Just a wedding dress, as for throwing such big temper?" This sentence let my numb heart pain again. Just a wedding dress? My eyes too sorrowful, Julian let Wendy take off wedding dress. Wedding dress already deformed, no longer look of back then. I held wedding dress went guest room, prepared good collect. Wendy however don't know when touched over. She hooked lip smile, "How you so cheap, all entered room by me to this step, still dead rely not go." I sneer, "I rather want divorce, but Julian not allow." "You so capable, you go find him ah." I turned want leave, Wendy suddenly fell on ground. "Brother Julian, save my child." Almost instant, Julian rushed over. He look furious staring me. "Scarlett Lane, my previous warning you didn't put in heart a bit." I retreated half step, "I didn't push her, she fake fall herself." Julian however distressed hugged Wendy in arms. "Wendy nature gentle kind, absolutely won't frame you." Wendy also cry, "All my bad, I shouldn't appear in front of Mrs. Vance." This sentence let Julian ruthless. "Mrs. Vance brain not clear, help Mrs. Vance sober up." I wanted flee, bodyguards behind blocked. They put full a pool of water. And pressed my head into water. I childhood once drowned water, so very fear water. Julian knew, I struggled shout. "Julian, I will die." I thought, he somewhat would care old feeling. But he just gently frown. "Scarlett, not give you a lesson, you won't learn behave." "My people have measure, won't really hurt you." Just like this, turbid water soaked my head. I desperately struggled, mind flashed look of falling water back then. Panic and despair wrapped me. My abdomen also came a burst sharp pain. "Stop!" Just when I despair, I heard that familiar voice. Soon, I was pulled up hugged in arms. "Scarlett, are you okay?" I crazy coughed, body couldn't help trembling. But my heart settled down. Because I realized, Xavier Sterling came. Julian saw Xavier first time was confusion. "Why you came?" Xavier brows eyes like ice, peach blossom eyes all killing intent. "You want kill my wife and child, of course I have to come!"
