Love Is a Sweet Addiction

“It’s best if there isn’t,” Terence said seriously. “Esther, let me remind you, don’t try playing any tricks behind my back. I definitely won’t want the child.”

His words caused Esther’s already aching heart to turn cold again, and she nodded sadly. “I know. Don’t worry, I won’t mess around.”

Early in the morning, Esther was woken up by the sound of a message.

She took her phone from the bedside table and took a look at it. It was Serena who had sent a message to the boudoir group. She asked her excitedly if the fertile period had arrived in the past few days. She had a better way to teach Esther.

Esther turned to look at Terence, who was sleeping on the other side of the big bed.

She replied, “I think I am already pregnant.”

After typing this sentence, she thought about it and deleted it directly, and then sent it to Serena privately.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Serena seemed very excited. “No way? Didn’t you say that you didn’t succeed last time? Why are you suddenly pregnant again?”

“I am also puzzled. My period has been delayed for more than ten days. I have used the pregnancy test kits and saw two stripes.”

“What do you mean?”

Esther was speechless. “Didn’t Miss Serena say that changing boyfriends is like changing clothes? You don’t even know this?”

“You’re so annoying. I’m so naive. I’ve never known this before. Tell me what it means.”

“It means I’m pregnant.”

“Really!?” Serena was pleasantly surprised. “If even the pregnancy test kit shows that you are pregnant, then it should be right.”

“Yes.” Compared to Serena’s happiness, Esther felt a little depressed and uncomfortable. She subconsciously glanced at Terence beside her.

Terence did not want this child. She was afraid that she would be forced to have an abortion in a few days.

In order not to make it public, she specifically warned, “Serena, don’t tell anyone about my pregnancy. After all, I don’t know what the situation is yet.”

“Don’t worry. I promise,” Serena quickly replied, “You wasted a good idea that I thought hard last night. But since you are pregnant, I still congratulate you and am happy for you.”

“It’s fine. You can keep it for yourself next time.”

“No! I don’t want to get pregnant.”

“I don’t want to talk to you anymore. I have to get up and make breakfast.”

“You need to make breakfast when you’re pregnant? Shouldn’t it be made by Terence?”

“He still doesn’t know that I’m pregnant.” Esther took a glance at Terence before she quietly got off the bed and walked into the kitchen.

Serena was surprised. “No way. You haven’t told him yet? Are you afraid that he will punish you?”

“Yes, I can’t imagine how he will react when he finds out that I’m pregnant,” Esther finally replied to her, “I really don’t want to talk to you anymore. Let’s talk when we have time.”

“Goodbye, expectant mother,” Serena added a series of happy expressions.

Esther couldn’t help but laugh when she saw these two words. Her little hand unconsciously touched her flat belly.

That’s right. In the blink of an eye, she had already become an expectant mother. Although she still didn’t know if this child was good or if it could come to this world, just the feeling of being an expectant mother was very heartwarming and touching.

She secretly said in her heart, “Baby, you must be good. Only then will mother have the motivation to protect you and to strive for you to come to this world.”

…

Serena had just stepped into the office when a female colleague brought a few manuscripts to her with a smile. “Ms. Serena, this is a manuscript that Esther just sent back. It’s not bad.”

“Really? Let me take a look.” Serena took the manuscript over.

“Esther is really good. Even though she is spending her honeymoon, she doesn’t delay her work at all.”

“Of course, Esther was capable. Otherwise, why would Lila even choose her design drafts?” Linsay, who followed him in, said.

Serena nodded and agreed with Linsay’s words.

She scanned the manuscript for a while and said to her colleague, “I’ll take a closer look later. You go do your work first.”

“Okay, then I’ll go out.” The colleague smiled and turned to leave.

After the colleague walked out, Linsay walked to Serena’s side and sat down. She picked up Esther’s design drafts and flipped through them. “Esther is indeed very outstanding. Why don’t we let Esther design the dress for Hansa Company? In case we are always rejected by others.”

“No. Esther is pregnant now. How can we throw her to that witch, Hansa, to abuse?” Serena said.

Linsay was surprised. “What did you say? Esther is pregnant?”

“What!?” Serena was stunned and blinked her eyes innocently. “Did I say it?”

“Esther is pregnant… This is a good thing. Why does it seem that she doesn’t want others to know?” Linsay deliberately glanced at her with a puzzled face. At the same time, she wondered why Esther told Serena about her pregnancy but did not tell her?

Could it be that the incident related to the gown and the wedding gown made Esther suspicious of Linsay? However, they usually got along quite well. Moreover, Esther was a simple-minded woman. She shouldn’t even suspect her good friend.

“The main reason is that it is still unstable and there is no final confirmation. Moreover, pregnancy is a dangerous period in the first three months. The fewer people who know about it, the better. So…” Serena raised her finger and pointed at her. “Linsay, only you and I know about this. Don’t tell anyone about this. Otherwise, Esther will kill me.”

“Don’t worry.” Linsay comforted her with a smile.

“In the morning, I also made such a solemn promise. But…” Serena thought that she had just promised in the morning, but she had not expected that she would make a slip of her tongue in less than half a day. She felt extremely guilty.

Fortunately, other than Linsay, the other colleagues did not know.

In order to find out whether she was pregnant or not, not long after Terence went out to work, Esther also went out to the hospital.

The results of the blood test showed that she was indeed pregnant. Although she had already guessed the result, she was still stunned on the spot the moment she got the result, and she was somewhat unable to accept it for a moment.

The entanglement and uneasiness that had wrapped around her heart for the past two days were once again hooked out, wreaking havoc on her mood.

Walking alone on the sidewalk, she took a long time to calm herself down. To distract herself, she even walked into a cinema to watch a movie, then listened to music, read books…

It was only in the afternoon when she looked at the time and found that it was time to buy some ingredients for dinner and go home to cook, that she had the intention to go home.
