Chapter 462


    Skr called Joe back, but he didn’t answer. Watching the traffic light turn red at the intersection,


    she smiled wryly at the coincidence—they’d missed each other’s calls.


    However, it was no big deal. They could just discuss it at home. Steven and Annie’s situation


    wouldn’t be resolved overnight anyway.


    Just as she entered Gxy Vi, Joe’s call came in. “I was ying basketball,” Joe exined why


    he had missed her call.


    Skr offered a slight nod. “No worries. It’s nothing urgent. I’ve just finished a movie. Enjoy your


    game. Are youing home for dinner?”


    Joe paused before responding, “I’ll be having dinner with Rowan and the others. I’l


    be homete, so if you have anything important, call Paul.”


    “Got it,” Skr replied.


    After ending the call, Skr went upstairs to change her clothes. Then, she headed


    to the kitchen to make a simple pasta dish.


    Scrolling through Instagram, Natalie’s post of a candlelit dinner caught her eye. The


    romantic ambiance spoke volumes, even without Natalie or Jeremy in the picture.


    She realized her worries about them were unfounded.


    Next, she checked Annie’s profile. There were no recent updates. Just as she was


    about to exit, a new post appeared.


    It was a photo of two sped hands with the caption, “I only wish for eternity in this


    life with you.”


    Skr frowned. This would surely move Steven, a reflection of every girl’s dream.


    Annie knew how to capture a man’s heart. Steven, who had never been in love before, would be


    even more enraptured.


    Her public deration on Instagram would surely strengthen his feelings.


    A sudden wave of disgust washed over Skr, like an annoying fly buzzing around


    her. The delicious pasta before her lost its appeal.


    2/2


    Annabelle had just returned from the private maternity hospital she’d chosen forplete privacy.


    She had undergone the examinations with peace of mind,


    knowing she wouldn’t encounter anyone she knew.


    Going for a prenatal check–up alone was hard enough, and it was even harder now that she


    couldn’t reach her child’s father. Jeremy remained unresponsive, neither answering calls nor


    replying to her WhatsApp messages.


    They had once been close and even shared intimacy, yet Jeremy could turn his back on her so


    easily. His heartlessness was infuriating.


    Pregnancy hormones likely amplified Annabelle’s emotions despite her wellid ns diligently put


    into action.


    “Your indifference will be repaid doubly, Jeremy! One day, you’ll shower me with immense love.


    You’ll want to give me and our child the world,” Annabelle muttered, trying to calm herself.


    She picked up her phone and scrolled through her Instagram, where she saw Natalie’s post about a


    romantic candlelit dinner with Jeremy. Her face contorted with anger, and she nearly crushed her


    phone.


    “Natalie, what makes you deserve this? Jeremy is mine! I can give him what you can’t!


    The romantic setting screamed of Jeremy’s respect and affection for Natalie. She felt incredulous


    that Natalie had enjoyed it.


    Impatient, she opened Natalie’s chat and sent a message.
