Chapter 120 Nora Buys a Gift for Steven
Olivia's heart went cold. "Willie, the baby in my belly isn't just my child—it's your child too. How can you say something like that? Do you even deserve to be a father?"
She lost her child, she almost died, and Willie was telling her to let it go?
Who could accept that?
Willie said, "She didn't do it on purpose. She said you stood up first, and that's why she accidentally pushed you. Can we just drop this?"
Olivia let out a cold laugh. "Stop talking."
She was too tired to listen.
"Olivia..." Willie wanted to keep pleading.
Olivia said coldly, "Let's get divorced, Willie."
Looking at him now made her sick. Her child was gone, and he was still taking his family's side.
She regretted marrying him so much!
Willie said, "Why are you bringing up divorce again? Isn't this just a small thing?"
A small thing?
A small thing again?
She almost lost her life, and that was a small thing?
Olivia was completely disappointed in Willie.
She didn't want to say anything more. She lay back on the pillow. "Just go. I don't want to talk to you anymore. I'll get someone to evaluate Apex Technologies Corporation's value later. Don't come to the hospital again. I don't want to see you or hear your voice."
She felt disgusted, unbearably disgusted.
"Olivia." Willie didn't leave. He grabbed her hand, putting on an affectionate act. "I know you're angry right now. How about this—after you're discharged, I'll rent you a new place. You can live separately from my family, so there won't be any more conflicts. Does that work?"
If the baby were still here, she probably would have been happy about this.
But... the baby was gone.
She and Willie could never go back.
"No." Olivia pulled her hand away and closed her eyes. "I'm never going back to your house, and I'm never living with you again. Get out."
Her child was killed by someone, and Willie wanted her to let it go? Not in a million years!
"About Willow..." Willie tried to continue.
Olivia grabbed a pillow and threw it hard at him. "Never! I'm definitely going after her, Willie. Just wait! I'm going to make sure Willow goes to prison!"
Seeing how worked up she was, Willie didn't want to argue. He told her to rest well and left.
Olivia sat in silence in the hospital room.
After a long while, she found the business card Alton had given her and made a call.
"Hello." Alton's pleasant voice came through the phone.
Olivia's eyes filled with tears. She blinked them back, pushing down the bitterness in her heart. "Mr. Bridges, can you help me?"
Alton heard the tears in Olivia's voice.
He pressed his lips together and said gently, "How would you like me to help you?"
"I want to get revenge for my child..."
Nora took the subway home and checked her phone.
In her chat with Steven, there were still just her two messages. Steven hadn't replied.
Nora thought to herself: 'Is he really that busy?
He doesn't even have time to reply to a message?
It's already past 8 PM!'
When Nora got off at her stop, she called Steven. He didn't pick up. Nora was a bit upset.
They were so loving last night, and today he was so cold.
What a bad man!
Nora was so mad that instead of going home, she went to the mall and used her card to buy a little golden rabbit.
This was what Steven had told her to buy last time when he made her unhappy.
She spent $3,000!
She used that black card. Steven's phone was linked to it—none of the other cards had phone alerts, just this one.
Steven looked and saw she'd charged $3,000.
A moment later, she charged another $4,000-plus to the card.
Seeing that Nora had spent over $7,000 on things, he was furious. He didn't come home, and she didn't know to hold back? She still had the mood to go shopping?
Steven's eyes were cold enough to kill.
So she really was after his money, wasn't she?
She thought that since she'd gotten into his bed, he wouldn't dump her, so now she was showing her true colors, using his card to shop like crazy?
Before, she bought small things, but now she was spending more and more. It was really hard not to be suspicious.
The $4,000-plus was actually for a golden piglet.
After buying the golden rabbit, Nora's mood improved. She'd made money, so she wanted to buy Steven a gift too.
Last time he gave her a bracelet, and this time he bought her a golden rabbit.
So Nora bought Steven a golden piglet.
She held the little pig in her hand, smiling brightly.
"Steven!" Nora poked the golden piglet in her palm. "You're just a pig! Pig, pig..."
She went to pay, planning to use her own card for the golden piglet. But the clerk got confused and charged Steven's card again.
"Ah!" Nora saw the clerk charge the same card and let out a cry.
"What's wrong?" The clerk looked at her.
Nora felt a bit helpless.
But since it was already charged, she didn't say anything.
She had the clerk wrap them up, then used her own phone to transfer the money for the golden piglet to Steven's account.
It was a gift from her, so she should pay for it.
She put the golden piglet and golden rabbit together—they were the animals they each liked. She looked at them happily.
"A pig, that's Steven's favorite animal, right?"
Vivian came to the gold shop to pick up her custom-made golden peach and ran into Nora buying gold.
Vivian couldn't help taking a jab at her.
Nora turned around and saw it was Vivian from Aurora Tech.
She wasn't afraid of her anymore. She was Steven's wife—what did she have to be afraid of?
Nora glanced at the golden peach in Vivian's hand.
It was as big as a fist. That peach couldn't be cheap, right?
Compared to that, her little rabbit and piglet were tiny!
But she wasn't going to compete with Vivian.
Nora put her things away, planning to go home.
Vivian couldn't stand being ignored. She stepped forward and grabbed Nora's hand. "Are you really not getting it or just pretending not to get it?"
"What are you doing?" Nora looked at her coldly.
"What am I doing? You're chasing after my fiancé and asking me what I'm doing? Steven likes these cute little pigs—you think I don't know? You bought this piglet for him, didn't you? I just warned you last time, and you still dare to give him gifts? How can you be so shameless?"
Nora's hand was grabbed by her. She calmly replied, "Ms. Bennett, are you crazy? Steven is my husband. Why can't I buy him a gift?"
Vivian was acting like a legitimate wife confronting a mistress. It was ridiculous!
"You and he are impossible." Their family backgrounds didn't match—it was impossible!
Only Nora would have such foolish fantasies!
But Vivian wouldn't tell Nora Steven's true identity. She was already clinging so tightly without knowing—if she found out Steven's real identity, there's no way she'd divorce quietly!
"You and he are the ones who are impossible!" Nora met her gaze. When arguing, you had to have presence. "Our relationship is so good, we don't want to divorce at all. Everything is just your imagination. You can like Steven, but he has me now. We're legally married, so even if you like him, you need to hide your feelings. Otherwise, you're just a shameless bitch!"
Back then, Vivian humiliated Nora, telling her to hide her feelings for Steven.
Today, Nora was giving those words right back to Vivian!
