chapter 3
Elena formally introduced her husband to us, the foreign prince Andrew.
She said, "My husband said as soon as my child is born, he'll make him the heir. You still have time to win my favor."
"Otherwise, with just one word from me, your company will go bankrupt. Athena, by then, you'll be out of a job too."
Everyone could clearly sense that something was wrong. However, Elena was still immersed in her dream.
Colleague Sophie Hall pulled me aside while Elena was showing off to the other colleagues.
She said, "What prince would donate sperm? Besides, their hierarchy is so strict, how could they let a prince marry a foreign woman and have their child inherit the throne?"
However, Andrew was indeed very generous to Elena.
Elena just threw a tantrum, feeling that her jewelry was too light.
In just half an hour, a haute couture designer personally arrived on-site to design and create jewelry for her.
Seeing everyone's envious looks, Elena became even more smug.
In my past life, Andrew treated me the same way.
I just had a little morning sickness, but he got so nervous and called the world's top doctors with a single phone call.
But, like Sophie, I was very confused inside.
Andrew and I had never met before. How could he treat me so well just because I was carrying his child?
Even the entire royal family treated me like a treasure?
I'm just an ordinary person. Besides carrying Andrew's child, there's nothing about me that deserves their special attention.
So, I kept paying attention secretly and finally discovered that secret.
Unfortunately, Elena is now lost in the sweet trap of sudden wealth and has no mind to think further.
A kind colleague advised her to be careful, but she scolded that colleague.
She said, "You're just jealous of me. I'm beautiful, independent, and smart. What's wrong with my husband falling in love with me at first sight?"
Andrew also made a heartfelt confession to Elena in front of all of us in broken English.
He gently stroked Elena's belly, but his eyes revealed a hint of madness that only I noticed.
Seeing me staring at Andrew, Elena got angry instantly.
She rushed over, pushed me down, and angrily threw her shoe at my face, hitting my forehead.
Elena scolded, "Athena, how shameless can you be? Why are you staring at my husband?"
Just as she was about to keep hitting me, Andrew sternly restrained her.
He said, "You're pregnant, you can't mess around. If the baby is gone, I'll kill you."
Everyone could see that, in Andrew's eyes, the baby was clearly more important than Elena.
But Elena truly has something wrong with her mind.
She said, "See how much my husband loves me. He even said he'd kill me if we lost our child. He values our fruit of love so much."
When she mentioned "fruit of love," Andrew's eyes clearly revealed strong disgust.
While Elena was being held by Andrew, my colleagues quickly helped me up.
They originally wanted to scold Elena, but since she really seemed to be becoming a princess, they didnt dare.
In the end, I waved my hand and said, "Let's not bother with her."
I silently added in my heart, "Because nine months later, she will live in great pain."
