wen paused. “You still haven’t slapped yourself or knelt to apologize. What’s with the attitude?”

ienna seethed with anger. “Why would I ever kneel to a woman like you? Are you out of your mind?”

he hated Gwen’s cool indifference, despising that she hadn’t managed to bring her down and was stead left humiliated.

You’re not getting on your knees? Well, once that baby is born, you’ll be heading to prison anyway. I’ve got

the time in the world to watch you face the consequences,” Gwen said, her smile icy.

lenna scoffed. “Even if I end up in jail, I’ll still have Jake’s child. Our bond will always be there. Unlike you three years of marriage and you couldn’t even get pregnant!”

wen’s expression turned icy. That remark struck her in the deepest wound–one she had endured hroughout her entire marriage.

s she recalled how Sienna had orchestrated the car accident and now stood there flaunting her regnancy, Gwen’s fury erupted, surging beyond her control. She marched up to Sienna, grabbing her ollar and yanking her back like a rag doll. “Say that again!”

ienna was much smaller in frame. Her heel slipped, and she teetered dangerously, suspended in the air. Gwen let go, she’d surely crash to the ground.

With her pregnancy still in its early stages, a fall could spell disaster. She panicked. “I’m pregnant! Please ont!”

Where’s all that bravado now?” Gwen’s smile was chilling. Are you scared?”

ienna frantically nodded, her entire body trembling. She glanced around, suddenly aware that it was later t night and there was no one around to come to her aid.

Are you going to kneel and apologize or not? Gwen demanded.

Yes! Yes!” Sienna replied.

wen had no intention of truly hurting her. She just wanted to shut Sienna up. Certain she wouldn’t cause arm, Gwen yanked Sienna forward before releasing her grip.

ienna crumpled to be ground, tears streaming down her face, her legs too weak to support her. She emained in a daze as Jake walked over.

Jake, Gwen pushed me and the baby!” Sienna cried.

he scene oddly resembled the photo exhibit from Findley.

ake’s expression remained icy, yet Sienna’s tearful complaints only served to annoy him more. He pproached her but made no move to help her up, displaying no indication that he believed her.

With a frown, he directed his attention to Gwen, his tone softening. “What are you doing at the hospital? Is our injury from the accident still troubling you?”

Gwen is fine. There is no need for your concern.” Ryan was tired of the drama. He draped an arm around wen’s shoulders, his casual affection evident as they strolled out together.

ienna struggled to her feet, her voice shaking as she cried, “Jake, why aren’t you protecting me anymore?

ake shot her a cold glance. “You’ve cried wolf too many times. No one believes you now.”

With no comforting words from him, Sienna could only trail behind, tears of frustration streaming down her face as they left.

A few days later, Alfie said in the general manager’s office as he took the signed documents from Gwen,” Ms. Lawson, the preliminary arrangements for Quantum Corporation are nearly done. Mr. Duncan will return to Bellmont City in a few days to discuss the technical updates.”

“Alright,” Gwen responded.

With everything said, Alfie remained in the room and made no move to leave. Gwen turned to him and asked, “Why are you still here? Is there something else you want?”

“Ms. Lawson, the Hall Group just publicly announced that Jake and Sienna are getting engaged soon.

A cold glint flickered in Gwen’s eyes, her lips curling into a mocking smile. Her voice turned icy. “A cheating couple should’ve been together long ago.

Gwen’s phone rang, snapping her out of the moment. It was Ryan.

“Gwen, will you come with me today to pick out some accessories for the next concert? Please?” Ryan had been stuck at home, closely monitored by the butler, and was using Gwen as an excuse to escape.

“No, you still need a few more days to rest,” Gwen replied.

“We’re just picking designs–no heavy lifting involved. Come on!” Ryan pleaded.

Gwen chuckled at Ryan’s restlessness. He really couldn’t sit still for a day. “Alright, I’m finishing up work now. Have the butler bring you over.”

“Oh, my god! I can finally leave the house!” Ryan exclaimed.

The two of them headed to Vere Jewels.

This time, no one dared to disrespect Gwen. The clerk who had once accused her of stealing a necklace had long been fired.

Moreover, after Xenia revealed that Gwen was a renowned designer during the jewelry exhibition, the staff regarded her with newfound admiration. To make things even better, Simon was with them–a superstar! Their relationship had to be genuine!

Everyone wanted to spread the news of the stunning couple before them, but they had to keep it professional while on the job. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Gwen helped Ryan pick out a few sets and offered some styling advice. Then, suddenly, she overheard someone talking near the entrance.

“How about we choose our wedding rings from Vere Jewels for the engagement?”
