Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson) novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164
“No.
“That is true!”
“Are you implying that you want me to get into trouble at work?” I irritably answered his question.
“It’s not that; I’m just worried about you.”
“Instead of worrying about me, why don’t you worry about your family? Even if I overcome the challenges my clients throw at me, I’m sure your family will piss me off again sooner or later!”
“Honey, I’m going to scold them, so don’t be angry. It’s bad for the baby!” Carson said as he smiled at me. Then, he tried to pull me into his arms to comfort me. However, that hypocritical look on his face filled me with disgust, and I pushed him away. “Fine, let’s not talk about it anymore. I am tired and want to sleep.”
This was the first time I had strongly expressed my anger since Carson and I were married. Compared to my previous temper, it was a full 180. Therefore, he didn’t know how to handle the situation.
That night, he tossed and turned, but he couldn’t sleep. Meanwhile, I had something on my mind, so I couldn’t sleep either. I held on for so long just to see what Jolene would do. As expected, she was used to his wicked ways – it wasn’t enough to hurt me once – she would do it again.
Today marked the second day since Jolene switched my medicine. If nothing unexpected happened, she would repeat her little act tomorrow and switch the current medicine to another one. Once the medicine was taken, a pregnant woman would experience a miscarriage after six hours. If I had a miscarriage, everyone would just assume it was normal and not expect it to be part of Jolene’s evil plan.
Her plan is well thought out, except for one huge fatal flaw – I’m not pregnant, nor will I ever take the medicine she meticulously switched. Honestly, I wasn’t worried about Jolene and her schemes – what I was worried about was that my plans could go awry. Based on my calculations and estimates, my period should start in two days. But, why are there no signs that my period is coming?! If you don’t come, I won’t be able to carry out my plan!
Carson tossed and turned for a long time before finally falling asleep. When I heard his even breathing, I let out a sudden scream. He was so shocked by my scream that he rolled over and sat up immediately. “Honey, what’s wrong?”
“II had a nightmare.” I shivered, acting extremely terrified.
“What was this?” He patted my back lightly, comforting me.
“I dreamed I lost the baby.”
“Dreams are the opposite of reality. Don’t worry about that.”
“But, it was so real! Husband, am I really going to lose the baby?!”
“You are not going. Don’t worry, I’m right here.”
In the darkness, a cold sneer spread across my face. Carson Boyer, this is just a warning. Just wait; tomorrow night it’s showtime! Once I peel the mask off of Jolene’s face, you’ll be shocked at what you’ll find!
The next morning, I was surprised to see Carson personally sending me to the company. Since the injury to his face was still not fully healed, he just left me at work and didn’t send me to my office like before to show his affection for me. Instead, he left quickly.
When I got to the office, I made myself a cup of coffee and got to work. Just as I finished reviewing one of the design sketches, the office phone rang. So I answered. It was President Smith. “Lilian, a customer has filed a complaint against you.”
