Chapter 175
It felt like my phone’s encryption was threatening Carson. After all, I discovered his disloyalty when he started to encrypt his phone.
When I thought about how nervous he would have been going through my bag. I found myself happy.
There was nothing in my bag, just a few necessities for everyday use. I didn’t bring the dirty clothes home, but left them in the office. My encrypted phone was kept with me at all times. There was no way Carson could find anything that would arouse suspicion.
As I thought, the door opened and Carson entered. “Honey, you came back from the walk!”
“Yes”, I replied with a smile. “Victoria said you left. Where have you been?”
“I went to find you. Remember to wait for me when you want to go for a walk next time. This is the most important time for me to get along with the baby in her belly.”
“Ok, I got it. I will wait for you next time.” When I finished talking. I opened the drawer, took out the medicine and opened the lid. I suddenly made a ‘Huh’ sound.
“What is wrong?” Carson immediately asked.
“Did you open the lid?”
“No.””
“If you didn’t open it, who did? I just bought it yesterday.” I said intentionally.
“Maybe you opened it yourself and forgot?” Carson responded callously.
“Serious? Maybe then. I feel like my memory is getting worse these days. I even forgot to take the medicine yesterday. I had to bring the one from home to the company and I bought some new bottles at the pharmacy yesterday to make sure I didn’t forget to take them home.”
“Pregnant women have poor memories. It’s normal. I’ll make sure to remind her to take her medicine every day,” Carson said thoughtfully.
“Alright then,” I replied and took a pill from the bottle. Deliberately, I tapped my head. “Look at me! I forgot to get some water before taking the medicine!”
-111 go get it for you.” Carson spun as he said it. When he left, I quickly put the pills back in the bottle and took another two pills that I had prepared earlier and placed them in the palm of my hand.
Carson came back quickly and I swallowed the pills in front of him.
He then took the cup outside and never came back. Feeling strange, I opened the door and wanted to find out what was going on. Instead, I saw Victoria who was looking into Eliza’s room as she cleaned up.
When she saw me, there was slight embarrassment on her face, but I didn’t want to expose it. “I wanted to get some berries for
lime.”
“What do you want then? I will wash them for you.” Victoria stopped the work in her hands and followed me into the kitchen.
“Cherries!”
Immediately, Victoria grabbed some cherries from the fridge and started cleaning them. I then sat down. “Where did Carson go?”
“He’s in Eliza’s room.”
Chapter 173
What is he doing there?” I knew they must be discussing Eliza’s pregnancy again and I was asking that intentionally.
I didn’t expect Victoria to approach me and lower her voice. “Lily, I heard Eliza is pregnant.”
