Chapter 39 Beauty and Talent
Although she hated rissa for stealing her husband, the fact was that Antonio actually liked her sister,
and she married Antonio because of an ident.
In Adide''s heart, she had always felt that she was the one who stole the man from her sister. This
was why she was so tolerant of her. Now Antonio seemed to have feelings for her as well, how could
Adide not get excited?
Therefore, she did not want to get involved in the fake pregnancy anymore!
Hanna, however, looked at the whole situation more thoroughly than she did. She tapped rhythmically
on the balcony,
"rissa is robbing your husband right now and she dares to fake a pregnancy to trick him into living

out there. What if they get together again?
What will you do when they really have a baby?
Are you going to leave Antonio?”
Her words made Adide upset.
Of course, she hoped Antonio only loved her. She could even lie to herself that she did not care about it
when she could not get his heart at first.
However, when she truly felt his care towards her now, how could Adide let the chance slip away for
the second time?
Just at this moment, the door was opened. Jerry came in through the door with a long face.
He came straight to Adide and asked seriously, "Did Antonio cheat on you?"
Though he said it in a questioning tone, he was sure about it and believe in what he heard.
Startled, Adide stood up and was about to exin before Jerry waved his hand and snapped out.
"I heard it all outside the door, so you and Antonio were all acting when I visitedst time?"
He already noticed that something was off between the two of them, but he never expected his own
friend to be so unaware of his blessed happiness with such a great wife. Even though he knew that he
had no chance with Adide anymore, he could not help feeling bad for her now.
Adide was afraid that she would damage Antonio’s rtionship with his friend, so hurriedly
exined,
"No, no, Antonio has always been in love with rissa. It''s only because of an ident that he ended
up marrying me."
He had always known who Antonio liked, so Jerry frowned, wondering why she thought that Antonio
liked rissa.
He still remembered Antonio saying that he did not like rissa, but when he heard Adide’s words,
he was a bit shocked! Is that so?
On his face that was usually yful and smiling, Jerry frowned with a rarely serious expression,
"Stop it, cheating is cheating, Antonio is too much. Sister-inw, don''t worry, I heard everything you
said, didn''t you want to test whether rissa is pregnant or not?
I''m good at this!"
He stomped at his chest and promised, feeling unfair for Adide inside. How many posh wives would
still cook and pour tea for guests themselves?
Actually, since the first time he saw her, he knew that he was charmed. She was so gentle,
considerate, and understanding with a smile that was as warm as a winter sun.
She was the one who made his floating heart want to settle down and she was also the one who gave
him a warm feeling of a family. She was such a good woman. Jerry squinted his eyes. His clenched
fists dered his anger. He knew that she was the wife of his best friend, so he would not think about
impossible things with her, but he would not tolerate anyone bullying her, not even Antonio!
The two women looked at each other. They both felt that it was incredible to let Jerry do this thing. But
since he said it, it would save their clueless time of acting like headless flies. Adide expressed her
gratitudes, and settled this deal.
After getting closer to Adide, Jerry started to think about finding a time to properly interrogate
Antonio while seriously calcting how to help Adide.
Smart men were indeed cuter. Jerry''s solution was seamless. Because Adide was too cautious to
trust the food outside, she asked Hanna to drive home and had Da make a sumptuous lunch again.
The only pity for the food was that it was either too salty or too sour. A supposed sweet cuisine had no
sugar in it at all. The trancing Da even got reprimanded by Adide.
After they finished their meal and discussed about how to execute the n, they left the house.
Jerry’s n was indeed perfect. He was going to idently bump into rissa. If she was pregnant,
the first thing she would say would be, “Oh no, my child!”
If it was someone who was not actually pregnant, her reaction would have been "Ouch."
Just one reaction could show if she was really pregnant.
Besides, he would not really run into rissa, but would just pretend to do so to test her first reaction.
Even if this plot failed, he had a second one, which was to stab her with the telescopic knife, which
most people would believe as a real knife. Pregnant mothers would protect their bellies out of maternal
love instinctively, while those who were not pregnant certainly would not have this natural reaction.
They bothplimented him on his n, which was much safer if rissa was pregnant without
actually hurting her belly.
They immediately bought the props and let Adide ask her out.
However, their plots failed.
rissa did not call Antonio but called Adide to ask why nobody came in time. Adide hurriedly
lied that she remembered the wrong time and that there was nothing to talk about, then hung up
quickly.
rissa sat on the sofa at home. The person standing next to her was Da. rissa smilingly held
Da’s hand and let her sit by her side,
"Da, thank you so much for today, or else my child would have been murdered by them!"
“Never mind, Miss rissa. If it wasn''t for you, I would have… lost my grandson!"
said Da who was crying like pouring rain.
A disgusted expression appeared on rissa’s face as Da lowered her head to cry. That look
disappeared so fast that even if Da were staring at her for the whole time, she would think that she
saw the wrong expression.
Immediately, rissa tapped on Da''s back as she tenderly handed her the tissue paper,
"It''s okay.
As long as your grandson is okay, the money is not a big deal, and if you need more money for the
hospital, you must tell me."
Da’s grandson was born with a heart disease, which cost tens of thousands of dors. Though
Antonio had never treated Da badly on the sry, she used all her money on her son’s house and
car already.
At first, she thought she could stop worrying after his marriage and even thought of resigning to stay at
home to take care of her pregnant daughter-inw, but she was not needed since her daughter-inw
was staying with her parents. On the other side, after she took care of Antonio for more than a decade,
she no longer saw him as a simple employer, but treated him like her own son.
A yearter, the baby was born, but he was diagnosed with congenital heart disease. Ever since then
he was so fragile that even breastfeeding was a problem in the first few days of his life.
After that, he got sick very easily, and had to be hospitalized for more than ten days.
When the family''s savings were depleted, Da was d that she did not quit her job and worked
even harder from then on to save money for her grandson''s surgery.
