Chapter 30

7 was startled by the sudden noise.

Only then did I touch my ears. The blood had already dried and some red scabs came off. The touch brought back a twinge of pain to my

ears.

My ears were bleeding and I didn’t even notice.

Jane patted my hand. “Why are you so stubborn? Doesn’t it hurt?”

With that, she took out an iodine cotton swab from her bag, tied my hair up, and carefully disinfected my ears. “How did this happen?”

*Jessica tried to pull my earrings off. I briefly explained the situation t

her.

Jane cursed angrily, “Who the hell does she think she is? I swear to god she’s a nosy bitch. She loves sticking her nose into other people’s businesses. She even wants to take things that don’t belong to her. What a thief.”

“Why do you always know how to curse people?”

After Jane’s bombardment, my gloomy mood from earlier in the day lifted a little.

Jane glared at me. “With a friend like you, I have to learn how to curse.”

“Oh.”

I waited for Jane to take care of my ears. The iodine felt cold when it touched my skin, but it wasn’t too painful.

After Jane had finished, she began criticizing Ryan. “Ryan is really good at manipulating people. He had just given you earrings yesterday, and today he’s hugging some other bitch.”

Then she looked at me and warned, “You’d better turn over a new leaf quickly and stop being obsessed with him.”

Don’t just say you’ve turned over a now leaf, but still left some space for him in your heart. Jone knew me all too well.

“Okay, okay.“I turned off my computer, grabbed my bag, and pushed her shoulder as we walked out. It’s time to get off work. Are you coming with me to pick my car up? I treat you to dinner afterwards.”

The previous director’s work style was efficient. Things could be exhausting during work hours, but rarely did anyone have to work overtime. This good habit continued, so there weren’t many people left in the public office area.

Jane, in high heels, casually wrapped her arm around my shoulder. “You decide. I respect all the tastes of pregnant women.”

“I feel like having some seafood. I want to go to the restaurant th we used to eat a lot during university.”

“Can you eat that?”

“I can!”

I had been craving the seafood there since noon. Fearing that Jane might refuse, I put on a pitiful expression. “I’ve been craving it all day. I threw up after eating curry beef at noon and I’m hungry again.”

“Alright, let’s go for some seafood,” Jane readily agreed, then punched my stomach playfully with her fist. “When this little rascal comes out, watch how I deal with him.”

“What if it’s a girl?”

“Then I’ll have to spoil her!”

As we drove to the garage, we chatted non–stop, mostly about the child. in my womb. I was looking forward to the child, but Jane seemed even more excited than I was.

However, the good mood I had finally managed to achieve disappeared

shortly after arriving at the garage.

When we went to pay the bill, Jane’s sharp eyes noticed the two figures on the other side of the room. “Is that the bastard and the bitch?”

I was momentarily confused, but followed her gaze and realized that she was referring to Ryan and Jessica.

It really was them.

Ryan looked indifferent, his hands in his pockets, exuding a domineering aura.

From my angle, his gaze seemed to be fixed on Jessica.

What a couple of talented and beautiful individuals.

The salesperson was practically beaming. “Mr. Frost, this ca

perfect

for a lady, it’s easy to drive and comfortable. Mrs. Frost will definitely love it…”

After hearing those words, Jane became infuriated and was about to march over.

I could feel my heart ache but I still grabbed her. “Forget it, Jane.”

With Ryan backing her, there was nothing much we could do.
