Chapter 27: Wanting a Child

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sharon finished tidying up the room and turned off the lights. For some reason, she didn’t want to sleep at all today—or rather, she couldn’t sleep at all. At the thought of Wallace and Crystal being in a room together and that they might even be having s*x, Sharon couldn’t help but feel a little nauseous.

She walked to the small window in the study and took a few deep breaths. It doesn’t matter—I really don’t care! I don’t care which woman Wallace is having s*x with; it has nothing to do with her. After all, we are husband and wife in name only. If not for my sudden appearance, he would’ve already married Crystal.

The wind blew, but Sharon still felt uneasy. Since she couldn’t sleep, she decided to go downstairs and get a glass of water.

“Yeah… Yeah… gently.”

When Sharon passed by Wallace’s room, her body froze and almost went limp. Why are they so loud when they do such things? Do they want everyone to know?

“Ah… Wallace!” The piercing sound came again.

Sharon clenched her fists, her pretty face pale. She wanted to knock on the door and ask them what they were thinking. But for some reason, she couldn’t move at all.

Sharon, oh, Sharon, you’re really useless. Why did you have to find trouble in the middle of the night and listen to others doing such a private thing? Do you even have any shame? Although that was what she thought, Sharon didn’t notice that her nails had sunk into her flesh. She bit her lip hard, and her eyes turned red unconsciously.

Separated by a door, Crystal turned the volume of the p*rnographic film to the maximum. Her face was dark, and she couldn’t figure out what that b*stard Wallace was up to. I, a gorgeous woman, am here. The b*stard actually said he had something to do at night and went straight to the office, but how could I let go of such an opportunity so easily!? My main goal now is to think of a way to get Sharon and Wallace to divorce. After all, Wallace and the Sullivan Group already have a partnership, and his future is bright. Thus, I’m very willing to help him as his wife.

Sharon—who was outside—had returned to her room. She was in a daze. Wallace has probably forgotten that our wedding anniversary is in two days.

In the past few years, although they didn’t have a married life, Wallace would give her a present every year on their wedding anniversary.

She had wanted to celebrate their wedding anniversary with him, but she didn’t expect Wallace to do something like this.

With a pair of dark circles under her eyes, Sharon looked at the servants tidying up the messy bed early in the morning. It was obvious that there was a huge battle last night.

Sharon smiled bitterly and went downstairs to have breakfast.

There were already sounds of laughter coming from the dining table. Crystal’s voice was as gentle as ever. “Auntie, the dress you’re wearing now is new, right? My mom likes this brand too. Her friend went to buy a dress similar to yours, but it looks very ordinary on her. It’s completely different from Auntie’s elegant and wealthy aura.”

When June heard this, she couldn’t stop smiling. “Oh, I thought that this color was too flashy and didn’t suit me. Now that you’ve said that, I’m relieved.”

Sharon sat down quietly and picked up her chopsticks.

Wallace rushed back early in the morning to get the documents. Before he could say anything, he was dragged to have breakfast.

Looking at Sharon’s dark eyes and red eyes, he felt a little strange. Did she not sleep well last night?

“Wallace, you’ve worked hard. Have some of this.” Crystal smiled as she picked up some food for Wallace.

June sneered. “A woman with no family background and wealth, yet she still doesn’t have a child. What is she doing in someone else’s house?”

Sharon continued eating her breakfast as if she hadn’t heard her mother-in-law.

“Crystal, you must work hard to give me a grandchild this year!” June hated seeing Sharon like this the most. The latter was as soft as cotton, but she didn’t know how to evoke this woman’s shame!

“Mom, what are you talking about?” Wallace said unhappily. “Why are you saying all this? Sharon is still here! I’m not divorced yet, so it’s really unethical of you to say this.”

“How could you say that about your mother?” June was in disbelief. Doesn’t he dislike Sharon? Since Sharon can’t give birth, he should quickly get a divorce and find someone else. Why waste so much time? I’ve already tried forcing them to get a divorce, but this brat doesn’t listen at all and has even come to refute me now..
