330 Chapter 329
Mary paused immediately when she saw Ellis.
She threw the tissue into the trash can nearby and then stood up straight, tidying the messy hair that had fallen over her face as she had been looking down.
Then, she finally said, “Mr. Olsen, this is the ladies’ restroom, I believe.”
“I know,” he said languidly, leaning against the wall. “I just came to see your pitiful state. What’s the matter? Is your pregnancy making you feel so awful? Wouldn’t it be easier to just terminate it?”
Hearing those words, Mary trembled.
She clenched her fingers and said, “This is a private matter, and it’s not your concern.”
Seeing her like this, Ellis sneered. “Then I apologize for meddling! But as an unmarried woman, once your pregnancy becomes public, it won’t reflect well on you,
will it?”
Mary tensed her jaw, not wanting to speak, and walked directly past him.

Ellis followed her. “What? Struck a nerve, have I? I really don’t understand why you’re so insistent on keeping the child. Are you planning on having the baby to claim some benefits from the father?”
Mary’s chest heaved with agitation at his words.
Once she left the restroom, she stopped abruptly and turned to face Ellis. “Think whatever you want!”
Ellis frowned, feeling irked, “Who exactly is the father of your child?”
Mary stared at him. “I’ve told you before. It’s you.”
Ellis scoffed. “And I’ve told you, it can’t be me. Mary, don’t overestimate your allure, thinking that a man would be willing to wear a cuckold’s horns for you!”
Mary was infuriated by his words and clenched her fists tightly. “In three months, I’ll get an amniocentesis,
and we’ll test the DNA!”
“Still clinging to hope, I see. Fine, who’s afraid?”
Ellis, finding her impervious to reason, turned and left.
The two walked in opposite directions, conveying a sense of parting ways for good.

330 Chapter 329
In the restroom, Victoria and Christina suddenly emerged from a stall.
They had overheard the conversation in the restroom but missed what Ellis and Mary said after they left. However, the dialogue was already explosive enough!
Mary was pregnant?
And an unplanned pregnancy!
Her reputation in the circle wasn’t great before, and now with this, who would dare to marry her in the
future?
Christina thought about the slap she got from Keera that day, the way Mary stood in front of Keera defending her, and then how Mary had just helped Keera retort against her. A smile suddenly curled on her lips.
She grabbed Victoria’s arm. “Victoria, let’s go. There’s a good show to watch outside!”
The two left and headed toward where Mary was.
Mary, being beautiful and a member of the Davis family, naturally had many admirers.
A few executives from Olsen Group were there and

went up to her with glasses in hand.
“Director Davis, congratulations on your promotion to Head of the Investment Department! Let’s have a toast to your future success!”
After saying his piece, the man emptied his glass and then gestured for Mary to do the same.
Seeing this, Mary instinctively covered her stomach.
She suddenly smiled. “I apologize, but my stomach is a bit upset today. I’ll have to drink tea instead of alcohol.” She reached out and picked up the teacup next to her.
Just as she was about to drink, Christina’s voice came through. “Director Davis, isn’t that somewhat disrespectful?”
As Christina said, she already walked up to Mary.
Her face was all smiles, showing no sign of her previous hostility. She picked up a wine glass and said, “Director Davis, I was being petty before and targeted you. Let me offer a drink as an apology. You have to at least drink this glass, right?”
After she finished speaking, she put a glass of

champagne in Mary’s hand and then picked up another glass of champagne and downed it in one go.
Her hearty demeanor drew sidelong glances from the people around, and they all mentally gave her a thumbs-up.
Christina then looked at Mary. “I know you’re not feeling well today, so a symbolic sip will do. The champagne isn’t that strong.
But Mary furrowed her brows.
Being pregnant, she shouldn’t drink alcohol, and now, with her heightened sensitivity to smells, how could she possibly drink it?
She said, “Sorry, but today…”
Before she could finish, Christina said, “Director Davi everyone here knows you can hold your liquor very well. You wouldn’t refuse to drink today, would you?”
Mary clenched her jaw tighter, “Indeed, it is not appropriate for me to drink today.”
“Why is it not appropriate? I remember a quote of yours that circulates in our circle, “There is no liquor that can’t be drunk, only a heart that lacks sincerity.’

So, are you saying you lack sincerity towards me and everyone else? Or is it because you’ve just been promoted that you look down on people now?”
The person who had just come to toast Mary was also one of the executives of the Davis Corporation.
He happened to be in charge of the investment department, essentially Mary’s superior.
Toasting was simply a gesture of respect and esteem. If Mary didn’t drink, it could indeed come off as disrespectful. Hearing this, even his face changed
color.
Mary’s brow furrowed even more.
Christina pushed the wine glass toward her and said, “Director Davis, if I were you, I would definitely drink that. Otherwise, it wouldn’t look good for anyone.”
The glass of wine was placed right under Mary’s nose.
The scent of the alcohol hit her full on, immediately causing another cramp in her stomach and making her suddenly cover her mouth, turning to run toward the
restroom.
But her arm was suddenly grabbed by Christina.

“Director Davis, are you feeling unwell? Surely, you’re not pretending just to avoid drinking?”
Victoria said, “Director Davis, if you don’t want to drink, you can just say soy. There’s no need to pretend… we all understand.”
The executive who had just come to offer the toast turned even darker in the face.
He scoffed and said, “Director Davis, if you don’t want to drink, then forget it. I was the one who didn’t understand my place!”
He turned and was ready to leave.
The rest of the executives from Davis Corporation also showed contemptuous expressions.
