Chapter 255 Pregnancy Paranoia

Nancy was irritated. She needed someone who she can vent her frustration to. So she decided to call Doris.

Doris was worried about the weird questions that her children might ask her. If the children weren't around, she felt bored. So she decided to beg Jay to permit her to work.

"I really want to work. Do you think it's a good idea?" asked Doris.

"You can go to work, but you are not going to look at another man's penis while you are pregnant with my child! I will not allow it."

Doris simply rolled her eyes at him. "I see. So it isn't just your family that looks down on me, but you as well. Humph, why do you discriminate me because of my career?"

"Stop it, honey. You're being too dramatic. Why would I ever look down on your beloved career? I just care about you and the baby. I want you to be safe when you deliver the baby. Is that too much to ask?" Jay let out an exasperated sigh.

"It seems like you only care about the baby," Doris said in a begrudging tone.

"That’s nonsense! I do care about you. You’re my wife. I can’t have

tion. She then ended the call without saying goodbye to Nancy.

"Hello, Doris?" Nancy called out but there was no reply. Once she looked at her phone, she noticed that the call had already ended! She murmured, "I know Doris is pregnant. But why does she have to be so short-tempered? Married women are truly awful!"

"What are you talking about?" Charles had just finished preparing dinner. When he came in, he heard Nancy talking to herself.

"Well, I just said that marriage does terrible things to a woman," Nancy snapped.

"Did you call Doris?" Nancy only had one good friend that she trusted. During this time, who else would she call for advice other than Doris?

"Yes, I agree with you. I do think she has a bad temper and it might be because of her pregnancy. After all, she did say that women felt insecure after marriage! It does make sense that she'd feel that way. So, Charles, I think we are in a good state now. We both have our own free time. Do you think that we'll feel tied up after marriage?" Nancy said, as she eyed Charles warily.
