Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 51

Diana paused and sighed after some consideration, "He might. After all, many women will fall in love with a man that she doesn’t love originally for the baby."

Exactly. This could be happening.

"But what if the baby is gone?" I asked in confusion.

Shocked, Diana slapped me on the shoulder all of a sudden. "What are you thinking about? You’re two-month pregnant, and the baby is almost formed. What you need to do now is give birth to it safe and sound. Stop bothering yourself with nonsense."

I covered my face with my hands fretfully. I had been experiencing high levels of anxiety lately, and I could feel I was crankier than before.

Diana dried my hair and put me to bed, pacifying me.

Dennis didn’t show up again after midnight, but thunder kept crashing the whole night. Diana was afraid that I would be too scared to fall asleep, so she stayed overnight.

It was true that I was unable to sleep, but not because I was scared, but because I was anxious. I didn’t fall asleep until late last night. However, I was woken up by a phone call after I was half-asleep for a while. At that time, day had already broken.

It was from Jackie, her voice urgent. "Ms. Kennedy, Jo Turner Credit’s people have already met our financial staff, but about Thomson Group…"

"Call AC and ask them to handle Thomson Group’s audit work. You’ll take charge of the communication work." Now my mind was in a turmoil, and I might mess things up at any time.

Jackie replied yes and continued, "And HY Technology will launch its new products at the end of this month. Ms. Kennedy, you’ll probably go on a business trip in a few days."

I nodded because I was aware that a business trip was inevitable. Hanging up, I felt sick and exhausted at the same time. I got out of bed and found Diana cooking porridge. She stared at me in embarrassment. "Sorry, but I haven’t cooked for a long time, and I’m out of practice."

Looking at the burnt porridge on the table, I couldn’t help but laugh. "You won’t force a pregnant woman to eat it, will you?"

Diana smirked, her eyes narrowing into slits. "At least try some."

Staring at the burnt food on the table, I could tell how it tasted without even trying, but I still took a spoonful at the sight of her expectant face.

"How’s it? Do you like it?"

Looking at her eager eyes, I didn’t want to let her down but smiled, "I don’t think it’s done yet!" This was the best compliment I could ever pay. However, her disappointed look was so hard to watch, so I grabbed my bag and fled.

Diana followed me and yelled, "Come back early tonight! I’ll make something good!"

I was lost for words. Could she spare me?

Since I got up early, I arrived at the company in time, but bumped into Marcus in the elevator. At this moment, I realized one thing in life. That was, the more you hated someone, it’d be more likely that you would run into him here and there.

"Good morning, Ms. Kennedy!" Marcus greeted me in a sarcastic tone. "What? It was such a stormy night. Wasn’t Dennis by your side?" He continued after a pause, "Oh I almost forgot. Olivia is afraid of thunder. Each time there’s a crash of thunder, Dennis will come to her side, so apparently Dennis wouldn’t have left her alone since the thunderstorm lasted the whole night."

I looked down at the pearls on my shoes and chuckled. It turned out that the reason Dennis left suddenly last night was because he was worried about Olivia!

But that was totally reasonable. Dennis wouldn’t have fallen sleep if he hadn’t kept his love company during the thunderstorm.
