Chapter 44 I Won’t Have Your Baby (Part Two)

Fiona scowled, putting the pillow back in frustration. Spencer held her back as she was about to go to bed.

"You seem ready," he said in a low voice.

She froze, pursing her lips. "Stay away!"

"You know I won't." He leaned forward, inching closer and closer to her.

"No, no, please!" She waved her hands frantically.

He grabbed her hand. "The scar on my face has just healed. Do you want to add a new one to replace it?"

Fiona shut her eyes, face completely red. "Get up! I have something for you!"

"Is this a joke? What is it now?" Spencer looked at her in confusion. "Or are you just buying time again?"

She pushed him away and instantly ran to her bag. She turned her back against him as she took something out, but for some reason, she stood still for as a few moments before walking slowly back to bed.

Her face was impossibly redder than usual, but Spencer barely noticed as he was instead immensely curious on what she had in her hands.

With her eyes closed, Fiona stumbled to the bedside and handed it to him. "Here, take it."

"What?" Spencer frowned for a moment, and instantly turned red as soon as he realized what he had been given—a box of condoms!

Fiona plopped down quickly in the bed and buried her head into the quilt, wishing that the ground would swallow her up. There was something wrong. Shouldn’t they hate one another? Why was there suddenly this kind of romance?

Spencer leaned sideways and pulled the quilt off her, under which she still hid, embarrassed.

"Where did you learn to buy condoms?" he coughed out every word, unable to keep a straight face.

"It’s none of your business!" Fiona turned, and yet she still couldn’t bear to look straight at him.

"You didn’t buy the right size." He couldn’t contain the grin on his face as he sat beside Fiona.

Fiona bit her lips and thought to herself, ‘Did they really come in different sizes, or was he just teasing me?’

"You want to use them?" he asked.

Fiona furrowed her eyebrows at his question. She was furious. She wouldn’t share the same room with him every night if she didn’t get threatened! She certainly wouldn’t go to a drugstore just to buy condoms.

"I just don’t want to get pregnant. I’d prefer you not to touch me anymore," she replied stub

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

in us?"

Fiona wanted to jump up and down. Without hesitation, she replied, "Yes! I do! I will go there!"

"May I know when you’re available next?"

"I have time today! Is that okay?"

"Of course, no problem. It's eight o'clock. Will you be able to join us at the HR department at around an hour?"

"Yes, no problem."

"Well, then we are looking forward to your arrival. Goodbye."

"Thank you and goodbye!" She could barely contain herself as she hung up the phone. "This is so amazing!"

Spencer opened the door to a very excited Fiona. It was nothing like he’d ever seen on her—a bright smile, eyes without a trace of impurity, and lips curled up. She looked like a little girl, jumping without a care in the world.

His hand froze on the doorknob.

But when Fiona turned around and noticed he was there, the smile on her face instantly disappeared.

Spencer was also brought back to his senses. He had just run around the compound, and so hurried into the bathroom, soaked in sweat.

The room was dead quiet.

While he showered in the bathroom, Fiona hurriedly changed her clothes and left. When he walked out, she was nowhere to be seen. He looked at the living room but found nobody there. He ended up at the dining table with no answers. As casually as he could, he asked, "Where’s Fiona?"

"Oh, she just left without eating breakfast. I don’t know what made her so happy that she practically skipped out of here," Anna replied.

Spencer clenched the spoon in his hand but stayed quiet.
