Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 989

Side Story 1: Paul VS Daryl (2)

The instant outcome of Daryl's offer was that neither of them could afford the strawberry-picking physically.

Daryl lied to Lucia that she was in period and just needed some rest. And she was actually lying on the bed when Lucia came to visit her. Lucia didn't have any doubt as Paul was even passing Daryl some water. Lucia thus expressed her concern, told Paul to take good care of Daryl and promised to bring them their share of strawberries later on.

As soon as Lucia left their room, Daryl began to blame Paul by hitting him. Her fists pummeled at his chest so gently that Paul actually felt quite comfortable. He even began to ask her what she wanted for the meal later on.

Daryl could only sigh with resignation.

After the two-day stay in the countryside villa, Daryl went back home with a box of sweet strawberries and sweet kiss marks all over her body.

But her mood plummeted to the bottom when it occurred to her that she still needed to go for work the next day when she was so exhausted. That thought got her to glare at Paul, despite the fact that it was she who took the initiative last night.

Paul only acted innocently facing her scowl all the way back home.

In the following days, Daryl almost forgot this matter for she didn't feel anything unusual with her body until it was late.

She had thought it some minor disorders caused by an excess of stress. But the doctor advised her to go through some more tests after the regular physical examination. Holding the final report after the examination, Daryl lapsed into a gaze on the chair of the waiting room.

Paul came in with some water and asked with concern, "Feeling unwell?"

Daryl only shook her head bleakly and passed him the report.

Reading the report, Paul was paralyzed with shock, almost let the water fall onto the floor.

Their upset reaction, especially Paul's poker face, got the nurse, who took them as a couple on the edge of divorce, to comfort them patiently and advise them to think twice before making any decision.
