Prologue 2

###Chapter 1 Pregnant

Pregnant: six weeks

When Lavelle Astley saw the report of the ultrasound, she was stunned and frozen in the same place by these words. They did it only once, how did she get pregnant?

What would she do now?

Would she tell Jordan Astley that they should not push through with the divorce because of this? No, on the contrary, he would think that she was despicable because she was blackmailing him with a child.

She suppressed the depression she was feeling in her heart. She stuffed the ultrasound report sheet into her bag and went out of the hospital.

Outside the hospital building, in the glowing black Maybach, the car window was partially opened but from the outside, a person would only vaguely see the cold face of the man in the driver's seat.

The beautiful man owned a luxury car that naturally attracted the attention of many passers-by.

Rich and beautiful, it was the standard of Jordan and after so many years, he was not surprised, he ignored the eyes of passers-by.

The man closed his eyes to rest and sensed the movement. He only frowned slightly but did not open his eyes. He asked in a low voice, "Have you dealt with it?"

"Hmm!" Lavelle nodded, and she handed Jordan the contract that she has signed in the hospital. She said, "Dean Blakely asked me to take him because he wanted to say hello to you!"

Lavelle originally came to sign a contract but she met Jordan on the way. She didn't know why he would drop her off on the way.

"You're in charge of this case!"

Jordan had a few words but he would not take the contract. He only gave a faint explanation.

Elle nodded and said nothing more.

They were silent inside the car for a long time, except for the commands he was giving. The car drove to the city center.

It was already evening but Jordan did not go back to the villa. Where would he go? Although she was confused, she would never take the initiative to ask him about it, so she remained silent.

As she thought of the ultrasound, she didn't know how to tell him about it. She saw that he was looking forward to her. His eyes were fierce and as cold as ever.

"Jordan!" Lavelle opened her mouth and the palm of her hand holding the bag was a little wet because of fear. She was very nervous which was why she was sweating a lot.

"Go ahead! What do you want to say?" With those cold words, no superfluous mood was felt.

Jordan was always like this to her, for a long time. She suppressed her perturbed heart, took a deep breath, and said, "I."

Lavelle was not able to continue what she was saying because her phone of Jordan suddenly rang. She swallowed her words back.

"Nicole, what's the matter?" She heard the tenderness in the voice of Jordan and her heart constricted.

Jordan's gentleness was for Nicole Blakeley only. She could only listen to the dialogue between him and Nicole.

She didn't know what Nicole said on the other end of the line. Jordan suddenly stepped on the brakes and pacified the phone. He said, "OK, I'll be there in a minute. Don't run around."

After he hung up the phone, he regained the coldness on his face and looked at her. He said, "Get out of the car!"

There was no room for disobedience.

This was not the first time. She nodded, swallowed all the words back into her throat, opened the door, and got out of the car.

Her marriage to Jordan was an accident and fate but it had nothing to do with love. Jordan's heart was always for Nicole and her existence was only a decoration or an obstacle.

Two years ago, Master Astley had a heart attack and forced Jordan to marry her while he was in the hospital bed. Although Jordan was reluctant, he still married her back because of the old man. In the past two years, when the father was still there, Jordan treated her as a non-existent person. The moment that the old man was out of breath, Jordan couldn't wait for a lawyer to write the divorce agreement. He would just wait for her to sign it.

Back to the villa, it was already dark and the huge house was like it was haunted. Probably because of the pregnancy, she had no appetite. She just went straight to the bedroom, washed, and took a rest.

Before she fell asleep, she vaguely heard the sound of the car stalling coming from the yard.

Was Jordan back?

Didn't he go to accompany Nicole?
