Chapter 18: Obligation

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The serious-looking Chairman, sitting opposite her, had merely raised his eyes. He stared at her for a while before saying, “Your taste is awful.”

She devoted so many years of her life to such a family; and fell in love with such a cowardly man.

“Uh-huh, I was indeed pretty stupid in the past.” Yuna nodded and agreed with Frank’s conclusion. Recalling that Frank had helped her greatly today, she said fawningly, “My taste is excellent now. Otherwise, how would I have found you?”

Being praised by Yuna, Frank coughed lightly and said, “Just complete your obligation.”

Frank’s original intention was to ask Yuna to play the role of a wife and not be bothered by the Jiang family. However, Yuna misunderstood it as ‘Don’t forget that we are only getting married to teach the scum a lesson, complete your obligation, and don’t cause trouble.’

Yuna thought to herself that she had indeed overestimated herself. After all, Frank had an ex-girlfriend whom he once deeply loved.. She just had to complete her obligation as a wife on the surface.

Hence, Yuna’s mood sank as she replied, “Okay, I understand.”

The two of them quietly ate their meal. Frank enjoyed the atmosphere and even had a much better appetite.

Previously, when he was single, he would always eat alone. Now that he had Yuna’s company, this place had a little taste of home.

Thinking of the word ‘home,’ Frank pondered for a moment, should he bring Yuna to see his old man? It would save him from all sorts of urging and pressuring.

After dinner, Frank sat on the sofa and continued to read his documents. Yuna held a book in her hands and sat on the couch to read as well.

Suddenly, Yuna’s phone on the sofa vibrated a few times. It seemed that there were a few messages.

Frank raised his eyes slightly and continued to read the project documents without batting an eyelid. Yuna took the phone and realized that it was a message from Shaun.

Ever since Yuna had moved into Frank’s Crescent Villa, she had never bothered with Shaun’s pestering.

Seeing that Shaun had just sent an even more humble and pleading message and it seemed that he was probing, Yuna impatiently replied, “We broke up, don’t disturb.” She blocked all of Shaun’s contact details.

As for this scumbag couple, Yuna had already prepared all sorts of information, but she did not want to release them now. She felt that it was not time yet.

Meanwhile, when Shaun saw the red exclamation mark beside his message, he was so angry that he immediately smashed his phone.

“This woman doesn’t know what’s good for her!” Shaun sneered when he thought of Frank, who had left with Yuna in his arms this afternoon.

No wonder she had suddenly become cold to him recently. It turned out that Yuna left as she had hooked up with the Chairman of Linxia Group.

He had lost his face today because of her. He would get even with her in the future.

Yuna still had a lot of value, and he had not squeezed her dry yet. If she were taken away by Frank, he would suffer a considerable loss. He had to think of a way to persuade Yuna to come back to him.

Just then, the doorbell rang. Shaun opened the door and saw Chloe standing at the door, looking at him with red eyes.

Shaun didn’t want to face Chloe now as he was embarrassed earlier. He didn’t let her in but said helplessly, “Why are you here? I’m not in a good mood. You go…”

Chloe hugged Shaun and raised her head to kiss him, “Don’t chase me away, Shaun.”

Comparing the two sisters of the Jiang family, one of them was passionate and took the initiative to give herself to him. The other had been with him for nine years, but he still felt estranged. Facing Chloe’s temptation, Shaun couldn’t help but close the door and get entangled with Chloe.

After the two of them completed what they were doing, Chloe lay in Shaun’s arms and said gently, “Shaun, I want to tell you something.”

“Tell me.” Shaun stroked her back.

“I’m pregnant.”

“What?” Hearing the news, Shaun was stunned and asked again in disbelief.

“Shaun, you’re going to be a father. Are you happy?”

Chloe was pregnant with his child?!

Shaun was not very happy; he had maneuvered among many women. Previously, he had agreed with Chloe to get married, as she had threatened to break up with him. He still wished to live his life of a swinging single. Chloe should not tie him down.

Therefore, he forced a smile and said, “Of course I’m happy. It’s just that you’ve been so busy recently. What if someone finds out?”

Chloe could be considered a third or fourth league movie star. If the paparazzi found out that she was secretly married and pregnant, it would cause a big commotion.

“I’ve only taken on a few Variety Shows this year. I’m not very busy.”

“But we are on the rise of our careers. To have a child at this time all of a sudden…”
