I nodded and had no choice but to tolerate the discomfort. I could feel that I was already barely surviving, what more for the baby in my tummy.
As soon as I walked out of Josiah's office, I immediately bumped into Hendrix, who was evidently unhappy. However, I was already in a bad mood and my body was falling apart. As a result, I had no energy left to speak to him.
I was ready to walk past Hendrix but I could feel a tight squeeze on my wrist before I could proceed any further. He asked, still in that low magnetic voice, "Are you okay?"
"I'm still alive!" I flung his hand off and immediately walked into the elevator.
Back in the office, Kelsey took a pile of documents and put them on my desk. "Director, these are the recent financial reports for Roberts Group. Once you have had a look, please sign off on these documents."

By the time we finally concluded our work, it was already six o'clock in the evening.
I was feeling a little hungry, probably because of the pregnancy, so I turned the computer off and walked out of the company building. Joining me were countless other staff members who had just finished their work too.
I forced a smile through countless greetings on the way and finally made it out of the main hall. I then proceeded to order myself a meal at a fast-food restaurant nearby.
While I was waiting for my meal, several young and fashionable girls walked towards me and greeted me shyly. "Director Reid, we didn't expect to see you
