    1/4


    Lina had been having the time of her life these days. She would apany her parents around J City


    during the day as if they were here for a holiday. She even made them a travel itinerary.

    If it were not for the fact that she was pregnant and could not exhaust herself, she would have gone


    with her parents to various tourist attractions in J City.


    She had also be a regr to Hadwin Stephenson’s office. No one would stop her now. Even her


    ess to Hadwin Stephenson’s office became unimpeded.


    “Miss Sweeney, Mr. Stephenson is having a meeting. He said you can go and wait for him in his office if


    you’re here,” the secretary said.


    As soon as Lina entered the office and put down her bag, her phone rang. She picked up the phone


    and saw that it was a


    call from Anthony Sherman.


    Speaking of which, she and Anthony Sherman had not talked to each other for quite a while. However,


    she had texted him when she came to J City to find Hadwin. He even expressed his


    wishes that she and Hadwin could make up with each other


    2/4


    he should be at work right now.


    “I just… want to ask how you’re doing recently. Have you made up with Mr. Stephenson?” Anthony


    Sherman’s voice sounded a little hoarse.


    “I guess so,” said Lina.


    “In that case… Then…” Anthony Sherman was hesitant as if he had some difficulty saying it.


    Lina said, “What’s the matter? Just tell me whatever you have to say. We haven’t known each other for


    long, but we’re considered friends.”


    The other end of the line was silent for a long time. “Lina, you’re a good woman. I never wanted to hurt


    you, but I… I… Anyway, I’m sorry! Lina, I’m so sorry!”


    With that said, Anthony Sherman abruptly ended the call.


    Lina stared at her phone, finding it strange. ‘What does he mean? Why is he suddenly apologizing?


    ‘He hasn’t even done anything wrong to me!’


    Therefore, Lina called him back, wanting to get to the bottom


    of it. However, there was a busy signal on the other end of the line. Then, his phone was switched off.


    Lina frowned, feeling vaguely worried. She called again.


    It was the same asst time.

    “What’s the matter? Are you calling Anthony Sherman for something?” A voice rang in her ears out of


    the blue.


    Lina looked up, only to see that Hadwin Stephenson had walked into the office and was standing next


    to her. “Have you finished your meeting?”


    He said, “Yeah. Do you often talk to Anthony Sherman on the phone?”


    His voice sounded jealous. Lina quickly ended the call and said, “Not really. He just called me and said


    something ambiguous, so I wanted to ask him about it.”


    “Something ambiguous?” He raised his eyebrows slightly as if he was interested. “What did he say?”


    “He asked me how we’re doing, told me I’m a good woman, and apologized to me.” She was


    confused.


    Hadwin Stephenson’s eyes glimmered slightly, “You and Anthony Sherman seemed to get to know


    each other through a blind date, didn’t you?”


    His voice sounded faintly dangerous. Lina shuddered and


    peeked at Hadwin Stephenson. “Well… Does it bother you?
