Paul's words made Lisa's heart sink.
Paul was the one closest to Charles. By saying this, did he mean that Charles no longer liked her? But why? What did she do wrong?
Normally, anyone who had a miscarriage would be given more attention, cherished, and comforted. How come Charles totally ignored her?
"What do you mean, Paul?"
She thought about her disguise and how she had been acting. She made sure that she didn't have any slip-ups.
She addressed Paul the way Linda did. So what could be wrong? Was Charles's love for her fleeting? Or was Charles just naturally cold?
"My Lady, we employ these servants. We hope you would not hit them again in the future." Paul said and strode towards Charles's study.
"Paul, wait! What exactly do you mean? Where is Young Master Mu? Why hasn't he come back to see me? Is it because I lost the baby?" Lisa yelled, but Paul didn't turn around.
Paul just walked into the study indifferently, fetched what Charles had asked for, and then left, Leaving Lisa at a loss.
'What on earth is the matter? I lost the baby. I lost everything.
Even though the baby wasn't his, it doesn't matter because he doesn't know that.' Lisa thought. At least, for a while longer, he wouldn't find out. She remembered how much he cherished her when she was pregnant.
But now, he hadn't come back for a week.
She was weak because she aborted the 5-month baby in her. Now, she felt regretful about doing it.
What's more, she had made that decision by herself. Adam didn't even know about it.
What would happen if Adam found out? Lisa was horrified when she thought of that.
Suddenly, her phone rang, interrupting her thoughts.
It was a text message. At first glance, nothing seemed unusual, like a junk message. But upon looking at the content closely, Lisa saw a series of figures. She knew that was Adam's phone number.
Every time he contacted her, he used a new number. That way, only he could find her. She could never know how to contact him.
Lisa wanted to ignore him the moment she received the message, but she dared not refuse to call him.
