Baby Alliance: Helping Daddy Get A Rich Mommy Chapter 817


    Chapter 817 I’m Retired


    Upon hearing those words, Selena felt as if someone had stabbed her in the heart. As it turned out,


    exploiting her had been the most important part of the organization’s n.


    “There were a lot of things that didn’t go ording to our n—your pregnancy, for one, was


    something we never expected to happen. The organization told me about it at the first instance and we


    considered aborting the n altogether, but we knew that we could never reinstate it after having


    carried out the first part of it. I thought I was capable of wiping out the entire Zephyr Organization, but


    that took much longer than I expected.”


    Pierre paused for a moment before he added, “I don’t want you to spend the rest of your life in fear; you


    never could sleep peacefully whenever I left home. I wanted to put an end to this once and for all. The


    only way for me to do that was to eradicate them for good, so I carried on with the n.”


    Despite his exnation, all Selena heard was that he had chosen to continue with the n even while


    he knew she was pregnant. It was a bitter pill to swallow and she began to question the weight she


    held in his heart.


    “I’m so sorry, Selena. I’m really sorry about all of this.” He could think of nothing else to say except to


    apologize profusely; any other promises or oaths seemed meaningless at this point.


    The tears spilled down Selena’s cheeks. She could understand the position Pierre had been in and she


    knew that it would be like this since the day she married him. His love for his country would always


    come first and while she had epted it as the truth, it didn’t make her feel any less resentful.


    She could barely describe the anguish that tore through her.


    “Stop crying. This is all my fault. I’m the one who hasn’t done right by you or the children.”


    Selena’s eyes were red and the usation in them was clear as she stared at Pierre. “So, you gave


    me that ring with the knowledge that Yoel would show up, didn’t you? You wanted me to kill him.”


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    “No!” he quickly countered. “I had a feeling you might be in danger. I gave you that ring so that you


    could defend yourself when the time came. I initially hoped to surprise you with a birthday gift where


    the ring was handmade by me. It really was meant to be a birthday gift for you. Even if none of this had


    happened, I would still have given it to you.”


    Upon hearing Pierre’s words, Selena felt better and her expression softened ever so slightly.


    “That being said, the incident with Yoel was unexpected. I didn’t think he would be that prepared. He


    founded his own organization with his reputation beginning to overtake Zephyr Organization, which


    meant he had be a very real threat. I assumed that he would stop going after Fowler Corporation


    once he had his own organization, but he returned anyway. The deployment was made as soon as I


    learned of his return and keeping you safe was the top priority of the mission.”


    Selena sniffed before she asked hesitantly, “It’s been a while since the incident blew over, though. Why


    are you only back now?”


    She had learned of Zephyr Organization’s downfall a month ago, which should have been the end of


    things. It didn’t make sense that Pierre didn’t return home immediately after that.


    “There were a couple of things I needed to take care of before I coulde back.”


    She pouted. Looks like everything else is more important than I am.


    “I’m sorry, Selena. I promise I won’t ever leave you like that again,” he promised, gazing upon her


    sentimentally.


    Selena gaped. “Really?”


    “I’m serious; I’ve retired.”


    The word ‘retired’ seemed to linger in the air and Selena was so shocked to hear this that she was at a


    loss for words. I can’t believe he’s retired. I can’t believe he chose to retire at his prime!


    She was in disbelief. He had left the industry where his loyalty and passion had rested.


    “Why? Why did you retire?”


    Pierre pursed his lips and gave her an indulgent smile. “Retirement isn’t all that bad. I get to spend time


    with you and the kids. I owe you this much, Selena, and I’ll spend the rest of my life making it up to


    you.”


    Selena could feel the knot in her stomach loosening as she found sce in his assurance. Now that he


    had retired, there was nothing else left for her to say.
