Chapter 49
Joeyâs full attention was on the baby in Doraâs belly, he didnât have the time to argue with Gianna
âGianna, you better leave now, donât make a fool of yourself hereâ
Those words only stoked Giannaâs rage. âYou cheated on me, knocked up another woman, and Iâm the one who should be embarrassed? Eight years of marriage, Joey, did you do me right? Are you even human?â
In the public sphere, Gianna and Dora started arguing, immediately drawing a crowd
People started pointing fingers at Dora, while others criticized Gianna for being too domineering, considering Dora was carrying a baby
Hearing some support, Dora smugly retorted, âGianna, youâve been with Joey for eight years and havenât popped out a single baby You canât have kids and now youâre trying to deprive Joey of having any? Joeyâs been over you for a while now You better divorce him now and stop wasting time
Even Anastasia was taken aback by Doraâs audacity
In this day and age, a homewrecker dared to be so arrogant?
Being unable to have kids was Giannaâs pain. Seeing Dora pregnant, she lost her cool once again.
Joey kept silent at this point. Gianna grabbed her bag and flung it at Dora
âIâll make you pay for being a homewrecker!â
Joey stepped in front of Dora, grabbed Gianna, and scolded, âAre you trying to make a scene here and embarrass me?â
Iâve gone mad, and itâs all because of you two!â
Gianna continued to attack Dora and argue with Joey. Joey became angry and slapped Gianna, causing her to lose balance and fall to the ground
âLook at yourself, youâre acting like a shrew.â
Gianna fell silent, unable to believe her husband would treat her this way.
âYou hit me for her? Joey, youâll regret this.â
Seeing Gianna get slapped, Dora felt a tinge of satisfaction, but she put on a pained expression, hugging Joey and crying, âJoey, my stomach hurts.â
Joey immediately grew anxious, disregarding Gianna and rushing Dora to find a doctor.
âYou bastard, Joey.â Gianna cursed at Joey, but she couldnât stop him from leaving.
Gianna couldnât control her emotions and started crying.
Anastasia stood aside, unsure whether to step in.
She knew Giannaâs temper, if she stepped in, sheâd definitely get dragged into the fight.
As expected, Gianna turned her accusations towards Anastasia.
âAre you here to laugh at me? You knew Joey was seeing someone else. Youâre jealous of me, so you helped them gang up on me, right?â
Anastasia had no response, âDonât be ridiculous, your problems are not my businessâ
Even if she knew about Joeyâs affairs and told Gianna in advance, would Gianna be grateful?
Monica also added, âIf you have a problem, go confront her, confront your husband. Why are you yelling at us? Itâs not like we made your husband cheat or got the other woman pregnant.â
Gianna turned pale with anger. Monica grabbed Anastasia, âAna, letâs go
Anastasia knew Gianna was angry, and since they werenât on good terms to begin with, there was no point in staying to comfort her.
As Anastasia and Monica were leaving, Gianna yelled after them, âAnastasia, if you wonât let me be, I wonât make things easy for you eitherâ
Anastasia thought today was a total disaster. What did Joeyâs betrayal have to do with her? Gianna was taking it all out on her.
Anastasia didnât take it to heart, thinking as long as she stayed clear of Gianna, everything would be fine.
Anastasia and Monica left the hospital, had a normal lunch, carried on with their normal lives. After lunch, Monica had to attend to her beauty salon, so Anastasia took the bus home alone
As soon as Anastasia got home, Salma called, âAna, Giannaâs in trouble. Your aunt just called me, Joey really did betray her. Giannaâs making a fuss about getting a divorce Iâm on my way to your auntâs house to try andâ¦â
âYeah, Mom, + know Anastasia sat down on the couch, âI ran into her at the hospital earlier. Mom, you better stay out of this. It wonât end well and itâll just cause unnecessary troubleâ
