There was a flash of anger in Joey's eyes, and I thought my heart, "He’s not convinced. It seems that he really loves her." So I deliberately said, "You're the boss, after all. Don't do those degrading things. Considering your performance, I've decided to come back to the company to work again. You can move to the vice president's office."
Joey panicked and began to coax me. In order to dispel my idea of returning to the company, he even deliberately rubbed against me. It should be known that he usually stayed as far away from me as possible. He said that he had a psychological illness and resisted contact with people.
In the past, if he had suddenly been so enthusiastic about me, I would have been joyful. But today, I only felt disgusted, especially when I thought of what he had done with another woman last night.
I pushed him away and explained calmly under his incredulous gaze, "You are ill, aren’t you? I'm afraid you'll get sick again. Hurry up and move to your office. I'll come to work in the future. It's too boring at home."
After that, I went out to chat with the others. After asking around, I found that Joey and Faith were childhood sweethearts. Faith told everyone about that in person. For some reason, I suddenly felt a chill on my back.
Did they regarded me as a stepping-stone? Did Joey only love Faith and agree to marry me just for money?
Thinking of that, I felt a chill run down my spine. I didn't know if it was because of my pregnancy, but I felt that I was about to vomit, so I hurried to the restroom.
As soon as I arrived at the restroom, I heard footsteps outside, and then Faith’s voice. "Honey, why is she here?"
Then, Joey's voice rang out as well. "Who knows what's wrong with her? But don't worry, I'll protect you. No one can bully you again!"
Faith was touched and said, "Honey, you're so nice, but I always feel guilty when I see her. If it weren't for my illness, you wouldn't have to marry her yourself. She may also marry someone who likes her."
Joey snorted. "She's just a shameless woman. She's probably pregnant with an illegitimate child now."
When I heard that, I was suddenly nervous, and I didn't dare make the slightest sound as I was deeply afraid of being discovered.
From what he said, he knows that I'm pregnant?
