Female Novel
Chapter 130
I didn’t return to the villa after everything settled. I only sat around in Glenwood Apartments to pass the
time since I didn’t need to go to work at Fuller Corporation any more.
After a few restless days, it was pretty obvious how much my belly had grown.
I didn’t even try looking up news regarding Ashton anymore. I just resolved to take care of the budding
life within me.
During the weekend, Macy practically begged me to go to Q City with her for a few days since she was
so bored. With the free time that I have right now, and me being the laid back person I am, agreed
immediately.
It was a short trip from J City to Q City and it only took about an hour to arrive from one to the other.
We hopped onto the train and Macy looked like an excited schoolgirl as she looked at the scenery
outside. “I just made a down payment on a new house and the renovations just completed. I am inviting
you over for a few days to jazz up my new place,” she said while holding my hand.
“When did you buy a new house? This is the first time I’m hearing this,” I asked. Admittedly, things
have been hectic for me so I didn’t pay as much attention to her affairs.
“I only got it recently. I wanted to tell you earlier but you were so occupied with everything at work so I
decided not to tell you until now,” she said nonchalantly as she was looking at her phone.
I guess she has a point.
Our hour-long journey came to an end as quickly as it had begun.
After we alighted, Macy hailed a cab to get us to our destination as soon as possible. I could tell that it
was a newly developed residential area on our way there.
The unit wasn’t very big, being only a hundred-odd square meter. The renovations were exquisite but
not something that high-end. It was perfect for two people to live in.
“Let’s get some food in a bit. We’ll rest for tonight and then I’ll show you around tomorrow,” Macy said
while leaning against the door to my room.
“So what are we having later?” I nodded in agreement with her plan.novelbin
“What do you feel like eating?” she asked while glancing at my belly. “Oh, I know! Let’s get some
pasta!” she continued.
“OK! Let’s have some spicy pasta! I haven’t had spicy food in ages! I’m already five months into my
pregnancy, there shouldn’t be any problems,” I expressed. I knew Macy was concerned for me.
“Are you sure you can handle it?” she questioned me with her eyebrows raised.
“Yes, I am,” I assured with a nod.
“Well, alright then!” Macy agreed.
I wasn’t familiar with Q City so I just tagged along with Macy wherever she went. We went over to
Million Plaza where they had the whole of the third floor dedicated to food. Macy went a little wild once
we got there as it has been a good while since we last ate out.
We decided to do a little shopping before we ate and Macy was like a kid in a candy store. She was
only held back by the fact that I was pregnant and couldn’t walk that much. Otherwise, she would have
probably shopped till the next day.
After finding a nice little pasta shop, we sat down and ordered our food. “Shucks! I had so much I
wanted to eat while we were walking around. But now that I’ve actually ordered them, I’ve lost my
appetite!” she said with a sigh.
By my estimations, she was about two months pregnant now. “Do you get any morning sickness?” I
asked.
“Nope. I just don’t have much of an appetite. Everything else is pretty much normal,” she said as she
shook her head.
Pregnancy was different for everyone and I knew that, so I just nodded my head at her statement.
“Remember to be prepared for everything. Stay in Q City and live out the rest of your pregnancy in
peace. We’re only two to three months apart, so if you have anything you need for yourself or your
child, just let me know,” I reassured her.
“I already have everything planned out! I’ve even gotten the confinement center sorted out for my
confinement period. The only issue I ran into is that Q City doesn’t have as many confinement centers
as J City. But I found one near my place so it will be convenient when the time comes,” she nodded
with a laugh.
Macy had always been better at taking care of herself than me so I wasn’t too worried. I took out an
ATM card from my purse and placed it in front of her. “This ATM card was something George gave me
when I got married to Ashton. I have never used it but there is money in the account. You’re gonna be
alone in Q City and I’m sure this would be of some use to you,” I stated.
Macy frowned a little and pushed the card back to me. “I was able to pay off the house with just my
savings. The money I got from selling off the bar is still in my bank untouched. Ashton was also really
generous with his offer and paid me more than double the market price. So don’t worry about me, I
have more than enough funds to support myself if there were any emergencies. So please take the
card back and keep it for yourself. I’ll be fine,” she reassured.
I ignored her pleas and pushed the card back to her again. “I’m not taking no for an answer. I’ve
worked at Fuller Corporation for two years and I’ve barely touched what I earned. Ashton also gave me
a card that I’ve barely used. Moreover, Grandma left me some money too. On top of that, I’m still
married to Ashton so he won’t mistreat me or anything technically. Even if we get divorced I would still
get a lump sum of alimony. So please just take what I’m offering,” I pleaded in a serious tone.
“Alright, I’ll accept it. But in return if there’s anything bothering you, you have to let me know
immediately!” she finally conceded and kept the card away.
It was then the waiter brought our pasta out to us. So I just gave Macy a shrug and shot her a look
saying, “I promise you! Now let’s eat!”
Time flew by as we were eating and chatting away.
Seeing as it was getting late, Macy gave her belly a rub and suggested, “Let’s get some milk tea and
do a little shopping before we head back! I haven’t shopped in a very long time!” she suggested.
I agreed since it really had been a long time since we last came out together. We got the bill and left for
the shopping area.
“Letty, what brand have you…” Macy froze as soon as she heard those words. Her face filled with terror
and dread.
I couldn’t help but follow her gaze and not far from where we were was John. He was in casual attire
and with his statuesque physique and charming features, he was more attractive than any male
celebrity around.
