I, who rarely worked overtime, started working overtime more often. I didn't want to go back to that home even if I just stared at the computer in the office.
I didn't know how to get along with Alan.
Alan and I made an agreement in the first year of our marriage. We could fall in love with someone else, without hiding or betraying. We could talk about it openly, and we can part ways amicably.
Alan's eyes turned red, he hugged me tightly and said he only loved me. He told me not to say such silly things anymore.
I didn't believe in forever. But after eight years of marriage, I still firmly believed in Alan.
But on that night, I couldn't sleep all night and looked at Alan's phone again.
Bailey complained in the chat that he was too rough and made her very painful.
But Alan said, "This set is perfect for you. I couldn't resist, sorry."
Bailey also asked why he didn't take any safety measures this time.
After five minutes, Alan replied, "I want a child."
I really couldn't connect this kind of Alan with my husband of ten years.
Alan called me for several nights. "Donna, why have you been working overtime so much? Shall I come to pick you up?"
I refused him, "My best friend is here for a trip. I need to stay in the hotel with her."
There was actually no best friend trip.
I just didn't want to see Alan anymore.
A few days later, there was a business trip project in the company, and I volunteered.
My female boss divorced her husband. There was no one to take care of her five-year-old child, so she took the child with her on the business trip.
Unexpectedly, the child had a high fever and she couldn't leave while talking to the client. So she asked me to take the child to the hospital.
After I registered with the child in the hospital. I turned my head and froze in place.
Alan.
He was in the hospital with Bailey holding his arm.
Bailey put her hand on her abdomen and looked sweetly at Alan, "What name do you think our child should have, with Winston?"
Alan's expression was indifferent and he didn't respond.
Bailey kept asking. But he raised his head impatiently, "It's still uncertain whether you are pregnant or not, even if..."
Alan's words abruptly stopped.
Because his gaze fell on me.
I saw a flash of astonishment, panic, and confusion in his eyes from a distance not too far away.
"Donna... What are you doing here?!"
