Chapter 139 You’re Considering Me in Every Way
Victoria was caught off guard when Mary’s words turned out to be true in
a few days. Just two dayster, Mary suddenly pulled her aside excitedly
and said, “Let’s do the check–up tomorrow, Victoria.”
Stunned by the sudden news, Victoria asked, “Why has it been brought
forward, Mom? I thought you said to wait for Grandma to recover after a
few more days.”
With a smile, Mary replied, “That’s because your grandma has been
recovering welltely, and the doctor says she’s in good condition. Also, I
heard that a very skilled doctor is visiting, and he’ll only be here for a few
days. You should take this opportunity to do the check–up, and we can
show the doctor the resultster.”
Upon hearing those words, Victoria finally understood why Mary wanted
her to do the check–up ahead of schedule. However, she could only
awkwardly think of a way to refuse. “Actually, it’s just a regr check–up,
and normal machines are sufficient. Even a regr doctor can interpret
them.”

grandma and I have already talked about it. I told her that I’ll take you for a
check–up in a day or two, and she has already agreed.”
Instantly, Victoria turned speechless. She had thought of using Griselda’s
name if the previous excuse didn’t work, but Mary had somehow
managed to convince her too. Isn’t she too efficient? If I refuse now, will
she find me suspicious? After all, as women, our thoughts are quite simr.
It seems that refusing at this point is impossible. I have to think of another
way.
That evening, when ric came to pick her up after work, she took the
initiative to bring up the matter on the way. “I heard that Grandma has
been recovering well recently.”
With just one sentence, he understood what she wanted to say.
Immediately, he furrowed his brow and remained silent, but Victoria
immediately noticed the change in his aura.
For some reason, she felt her heart sink as she considered how to broach
the topic with him. Unexpectedly, even at this point, she still wanted to part
with him amicably. Although she would be raising their child alone and

might never see him again in her lifetime, she still wanted to abide by her
principles at this moment.
“Honestly speaking, my idea is to keep this from Grandma for the time
being, but we can try telling Dad and Mom first. They are young and
optimistic, so they should be able to ept it. What do you think?”
He remained silent, but after a while, he asked, “And the reason being?” His
voice was icy andcked any warmth, which was even colder than she
had imagined.
“Just say we can’t get along anymore. You can also say that I’m the one
who asked for the divorce.”
At this point, he sneered. “So, you’ve alreadye up with a reason so
quickly and even thought it through so carefully, nning to take all the
me for yourself.”
Victoria pursed her lips at his words. Although she didn’t want to do it, he
had helped her when she went bankrupt, and the thought of leaving with
their child made her feel guilty. As long as I can divorce him, I’m willing to
take the me for everything. If this drags on, it will be detrimental to me.

We are always together in our daily lives, so I don’t know when I will be
exposed.
At this thought, she forced a smile that was difficult to maintain and said,
“Well, if you say that I asked for the divorce, it won’t affect you being with.
anyone else in the future.”
Screech! Hearing this, ric suddenly turned the car at the next turn and
made a sharp brake. The car made a screeching sound beforeing to
a sudden stop at the side of the road.

After he stopped the car, he pressed his hands on the wheel and looked at
her with a gloomy expression. “So, you’re considering me in every way.
Should I thank you, Ms. Snowball?” He emphasized her name at the end of
his sentence through gritted teeth.
Initially, Victoria didn’t want to say anything, but the words were on her lips,
and she couldn’t hold back anymore. “There’s no need to thank me. If it’s
okay with you, can we go to the city hall tomorrow?”
Once again, he remained silent. He had been staring at her the whole
time, his gaze as sharp as ever, never leaving her for a moment.

He obviously heard me, but why isn’t he responding? Looking at him acting
like this, she felt a little helpless, for she had no klea what he was thinking
at all. Previously, it was because of Griselda’s condition that they had no
choice but to postpone their divorce, but Griselda had been recovering
well over the past few days.

Maybe it’s just my imagination, but he seems to not want a divorce. That
can’t be right, though. He probably can’t wait to get divorced so that he
can marry udia. If it weren’t for Grandma’s illness, he probably would
have married udia already instead of faking a marriage with me to
make Grandma happy.
Her heart turned cold uponing to this conclusion, and she didn’t look
at him anymore but turned around to the front. “Okay, it’s decided. We’ll
find a time to go to the city hall tomorrow.” She made the decision herself.
After she turned away, ric’s face turned extremely unpleasant, but he
remained motionless in his original position. The car was still parked on
the side of the road without moving, and the atmosphere inside the car
was tense to the extreme.
Sometimeter, she realized that he was still not driving. Her delicate

eyebrows furrowed as she thought, Is he nning to stay here tonight?
“Aren’t we leaving?” she asked.
Yet, there was still no response from him, and his gaze was still fixed on
her.
Victoria had no idea what he was nning to do, so she thought to
herself, Whatever. I’m tired of all the talk. If he isn’t leaving, I won’t leave
either. We can just spend the night here.
Considering this, she didn’t dwell on this matter anymore. She
emotionlessly adjusted the temperature in the car two degrees higher
and unbuttoned two buttons on her coat to have more space to stretch
when lying down. Then she adjusted her seat backward. When she was
doing all of this, she could feel ric still staring at her, but she ignored
him. As soon as she adjusted the seat, shey down and closed her eyes.

If he wants to buy time, I’ll just sleep.
The whole time, she could feel that even after she closed her eyes, his
gaze was still on her face, so she had to pretend that she couldn’t feel
anything.

At first, she felt a little ufortable when his gaze was on her, but as
drowsiness gradually set in, she stopped paying attention to it. She had
been especially tired since bing pregnant and often couldn’t get
enough sleep. Coupled with the frequent trips to the hospitaltely, she
slept even less. As such, it didn’t take long after lying down for her to fall
into a deep sleep.
After she fell asleep, she didn’t realize that ric was listening to her even
breathing and watching her peaceful face as she slept, his face gradually
turning blue. How can she sleep so soundly in this situation?
Yet, in the end, he couldn’t bear to wake her up. As time passed, his gaze
became helpless, and he couldn’t help but use his fingertips to lightly
touch her fair forehead. “How can you be asleep? Are you that heartless?“
