Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 30

"There is no need to resign. I'll just need to be more careful. I'll resign when my belly is too big." Isabella shook her head and smiled to comfort her.

Now that she became the only financial source of the whole family, and they still owed a lot of debt. She couldn't quit her job no matter what. For the sake of her children, she still had to go to work.

However, she didn’t say those words out loud, because she didn’t want to give her mother any pressure.

Diana understood her very much, but she didn't want her to worry that much. So she could request, "Then you can work for three more months at most. When babies are six months, you must go home on leave."

"Uh—huh, I know. When the time comes, even if I don't resign, they will chase me away as well." Isabella thought that if her colleagues still hadn't find out in three months, then how thick the clothes she must be wearing then…

With nothing Diana could do about her, she just looked at her daughter with a helpless and pained expression, "Let's go home."

"Wait!" Isabella grabbed her arm and looked at the shopping mall beside them, then smiled, "I won’t work in the afternoon, so let's go some shopping."

She also wanted to have a look at the baby products,

which she had to buy double at a time.

She just didn't know their sex.

Thinking of this, she smiled, filled with anticipation.

"Okay." It was rare to see her daughter so happy, Diana nodded lovingly.

……...

Next day before work, Isabella chose a loose dress with flatties.

Watching herself in front of the mirror, she was so grateful that her company didn’t required their employees to wear formal clothes, otherwise, she just didn't know what to do.

Yesterday she didn't buy any baby supplies, but bought a bunch of clothes for hiding her growing belly, which were all loose-style. Fortunately, she was petite and had a fair skin, so it wasn't obvious even if she got chubby now.

After dressing up, she drove to the company.

"Isabella, how was your vacation? Did you have a good time in Japan?"

Someone greeted her as soon as she arrived at her department.

"Why do you even ask that? Look, her clothes should be new, but … Isabella, your recent style… really changes a lot." Someone looked at her and said in ridicule.

Isabella was startled. She deliberately showed a dissatisfied expression, "Are you praising or belittling me? You have one more chance to say it again, or… I will not give you any gift I bought in Japan."

"Praise, praise, praise... of course praise, my princess. " Her subordinate immediately began to flatter.

Isabella arrogantly snorted, and then distributed the gifts one by one while smiling.

"Miss. Jones, Mr. Smith wants to see you in his office." Mr. Smith's assistant, Ellie said.

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

“She then looked at others at said: "Please place the new documents and paper these days on my table."

After that, she left out.

At the door of executive office, Isabella knocked on the door, "Mr. Smith, you wants to see me?"

"Hum, how was your vacation these few days?" Mr. Smith asked in a normal tone.

Isabella nodded her head, "It was good. And I would have no problem in working."

"That's wonderful, and have you borrowed the money yet?" He then asked.

”"Yes." Isabella frowned, "Mr. Smith, Do you have anything to ask me for?"
