By the door, his handsome and tall figure stood tall and slim, blocking the light outside. Only a little afterglow fainted on his side face.
His eyes were as cold as ever. He opened his thin lips slightly, but his words were incomparably sarcastic. "You are really capable, Hester!"
He walked in with his long legs and stood in front of Hester. His slender fingers almost pinched her throat, and the sound of anger exploded in the study.
"Threaten me with a child? Huh? " He looked down at her with mockery in his eyes.
Hester gritted her teeth to prevent her tears from falling in front of his grandfather. His grandfather said that they would stick to it together for the sake of the child.
She had heard a lot of sarcasm over the years, and it was time for her to be immune to it.
She took a deep breath, as if she hadn't heard his words. She looked at William sideways, nodded gently and said, "Grandpa, don't worry. We will be fine."
It was an explanation to grandpa.
Ryan's eyes was more and more fierce and severe, his long and narrow eyes slightly narrow, mercilessly staring at her, before William did not open his mouth, he sneered: "Hester, Who do you think you are? Do you really think you will always be my wife? Do you really think you can stay in my family because of a baby? "
He asked in reply.
Hester's shoulders trembled a few times. Finally, she didn't fall down in front of William. She looked up at Ryan and said in a clear voice, "Ryan, I don't want to quarrel with you."
"Since you don't want to make trouble, don't make use of the child. Aren't you very scheming? Are you going to put on an act in front of grandpa? " Ryan hated her indifference the most. She was so lofty that he couldn't get close to her.
"Bastard! You are talking nonsense! " Grandpa cut off his crutch angrily and said in a low voice on the ground, "Hester is your wife. Look at what you are doing now!"
William was so angry that he trembled for several times. Seeing his face change, Hester hurried to help him, worried about his body.
All the grievances were swallowed by her, could not stimulate grandpa.
Ryan didn't say anything in the end. He squinted at Hester who was lowering her eyes. Before leaving, he leaned slightly to her ear and said in a low voice.
"You'd better divorce me, or I will make your life a living hell!"
Hester's body trembled. She was stubborn and did not raise her head. She should never have too much hope for him.
William patted the back of Hester's hand to comfort her, "Don't worry. I'm here to protect you. I won't let you suffer."
Hester hid the emotion in her eyes and nodded without saying anything. William sighed and followed him out. Ryan needed someone to persuade him.
At this time, there was only Hester in the study. Looking at the cold space, she suddenly found that she was really far away from him.
Three years of marriage, she thought she could restore the empty relationship a few years ago, but she found that Ryan was no longer the childhood playmate. Their relationship went to the end, and only her wishful thinking remained.
The tears that she had been holding back finally fell down when no one was around. Hester wiped the tears quietly and sniffed.
She straightened her clothes to make sure that the tears on her face could not be seen. When she was about to push the door, it was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Hester dodged aside subconsciously. Then she was a little shocked when she saw the person. Linda appeared at the door having a very good mood.
At the moment, facing Hester Linda was not acting like a weak woman in front of Ryan. She crosses her hands in front of her chest and looks at Hester with disdain as if she was a winner.
"Oh, my dear sister, you have cried. Your little face is really tearful. Ever I cannot help loving her upon seeing her."
Linda said as she walked into the study. She had been listening behind the door, waiting for the people inside to finally leave. She didn't want to miss the rare opportunity.
Hearing her tone, Hester frowned and wanted to walk away from her.
At this time, she didn't want to quarrel with Linda. She was in the William's house, and grandpa and his family were all there.
As soon as she took a step forward, Linda grabbed her wrist violently, which made her stagger.
"Why are you leaving? My dear sister, it's not easy for us two to talk. Don't go!" Linda's nail polish was a little shiny.
Hester shook off her hand impatiently and said in a low voice with anger in her clear eyes, "don't make me sick with your face. I'm not sure if I will vomit all over your face because of pregnancy!"
Linda's face changed when she heard Hester say that she was pregnant. It was not easy to let Ryan divorce with Hester.
Then, Linda suddenly smiled sarcastically, "You haven't been pregnant for three years. Suddenly, you have a baby when you divorce. Hester, you are so impatient. Aren't you afraid that your fake pregnancy will be discovered?"
Of course, Hester could understand Linda's sarcasm.
A sense of gloom rose in her chest. Hester raised her hand and slapped Linda. She said angrily, "Linda, watch your mouth. I am fair and square all my life!"
Hester took a step forward as she gnashed her teeth and warned, her tiptoes almost touching her feet.
"We are not done yet. You just need to remember that as long as Hester is still alive, you will never be able to marry Ryan!"
Hester choked with sobs. She paused for a moment and finally said the last sentence.
"No matter how much Ryan loves you, you are just a mistress in the end! Even if you get him, you won't be recognized by the world. You will always bear this curse for the rest of your life! "
Hester hated Linda all her life. If it weren't for her, her parents wouldn't die.
However, the man she had loved for so many years had only fallen in love with this woman.
Even without this child, she would never let them be together, never!
Linda took a step back in a daze and was shocked by the fierceness in Hester's eyes. The slap did make her dizzy and unable to react in an instant.
Linda's eyes darkened when she was about to fight back. Then she put her hand on the other side of her face.
"Clap!"
A crisp sound was heard!
Hester looked at her in astonishment. Before she could react, Linda, who had a long face, suddenly cried, "Hester, don't beat me. I really love Ryan. Hester, I won't compete with you for it. Please forgive me."
The next moment, the figure of Ryan appeared at the door.
All of a sudden, Hester understood everything. She was framed and everything was just right.
When Ryan came in, he saw Linda crying and her face was red and swollen.
"Hester!"
Ryan stared at her, hiding Linda behind him, and raised his hand to touch Hester's cheek!
