Chapter 7
Over the next few days, I got along well with Alexander.
Our personalities complemented each other, and we both understood how to be tolerant and considerate towards each other. In just a short period of time, we had already become like soulmates.
It was only now that I realized how much of a wasted opportunity it was to have loved the wrong person in the past.
However, after a few days, a good friend of mine suddenly sent me a message congratulating me, “Aileen, you have been pursuing Martin for so many years, and you finally won his heart!”
I heard that your happy event is coming soon, and I can’t wait to drink your wedding wine!
After all, the Gibson family, being a prominent household, would only announce the precise information to the outside world once the wedding date had been officially chosen.
So at this time, people in Newwald still assumed, out of habit, that the person I was going to marry was Martin.
I rushed to check Martin’s account, which had been blocked, as I listened to her words in
astonishment.
It was then that I realized that his profile picture, Instagram background, and the pinned post had all been changed to my photos.
The personal signature has also been changed to, “The one I love in my life, only Aileen.”
It was clear that they were deliberately promoting something to our entire social circle.
I couldn’t be moved by his actions in the slightest.
In my previous life, no matter how much I begged him, he never showed even the slightest hint of affection towards me in public.
Did you suddenly start regretting and trying to make up for it now that you have lost it?
Martin’s love, indeed, proved to be cheap and useless.
In the afternoon, I led my subordinates to have a simple meal in the company cafeteria.
Halfway through eating, Nathaly suddenly ran over, crazily pointing at me and yelling, “Aileen! What on earth did you give Martin? Why is he suddenly so interested in you again? He even said he wants to cancel our agreement to get married!”
Why! w
Why should I start over in this life, and still be inferior to you? Go to hell! Go to hell!”
The next second, Nathaly snatched someone else’s hot soup and prepared to splash it towards me.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of me, Martin pulled out a pretend smile and forcefully used his back to withstand the scalding hot soup that Nathaly had throwTL
After making sure that I was not hurt at all, Martin suddenly turned around and glared at Nathaly with a dark expression.
“How dare you act recklessly in front of Aileen!”
“Still want to hurt her! I see you’re tired of living, huh!”
Martin forcefully pushed Nathaly to the side, causing the woman to fall heavily to the ground. Within moments, patches of blood began to seep from beneath her.
All eyes gathered, colleagues covering their mouths with shocked expressions on their faces, “Oh
ny… the amount of bleeding… she must have had a miscarriage!”
Nathaly looked down at herself in confusion and immediately burst into loud sobs, pointing at Martin and accusing him, “You! You actually killed our child with your own hands?!”
Martin looked anxious, but he quickly turned to me and explained, “No, Aileen! You saw it that day too, my co–pilot was fully protected, she couldn’t have possibly gotten pregnant with my child!”
“It must be that this woman, who is fickle and lacks self–restraint, doesn’t know how to behave and has been fooling around with other men outside, which is why she got pregnant! There is absolutely no way that what’s in her belly could be my seed!”
I shook off his hand, not understanding how he had become like this.
“Do you think you are clean just because you used a condom?”
“Martin, stop disgusting me here again!”
“I will pay for the medical expenses you helped me with, but I don’t want to hear any of your other ideas anymore. I’m not interested!”
I turned around and left, Martin wanted to chase after me, but he was tightly held back by Nathaly
Later, Nathaly went off the rails.
Thinking that her reputation was already ruined once the news of her abortion came out, she tried every possible way to firmly attach herself to the Gibson family.
She spread the word throughout Newwald that she was pregnant with Martin’s child, and they had I already agreed to get married.
The Gibson family, upon hearing about this matter, called Martin back and directly disciplined him using family rules.
The originally injured back was marked with dozens of scars due to the family’s corporal
punishment.
After the Gibson family disciplined their own children and closed the door, they did not claim the message released by Nathaly to the outside.
Nathaly became a complete joke among the entire upper class of Newwald, and as a result, her mother’s reputation as a habitual cheater was once again brought to light, leading to their complete expulsion from high society.
