Two hours later, in the study, the butler stood in front of Chandler and gave him a full report of the situation

Did you see her finish the medicine?he asked

Yes, sir,the butler, Mr. Charleston, replied

When you went to get the medicine from Alan, what did he say?” 

Dr. Louise said it was the best imported folic acid pills in their hospital and that it was a nutrient tablet especially effective in preparing women for pregnancy,Mr. Charleston answered

Chandler thought about it for a while. I’m asking you to keep this matter strictly confidential, understood? No one can know about this, especially not the chairman of the board. Make sure the lips of the servants under your supervision are completely 

sealed as well.” 

Mr. Charleston nodded. Please be rest assured, sir!” 

Alright, you can leave now.” 

When night fell, Erin had just finished talking to her mother on the phone in the bedroom when she heard that Ian had returned home. It was said that he had been kicked out by her mother herself

Cherry had learned about Erin and lan’s divorce based on the information provided by Kyle, including the incriminating evidence about Ian’s infidelity. Although her mother could not accept the fact that her daughter was getting a divorce at such a young age, she didn’t wish for her daughter to suffer

Through the phone, Cherry told Erin to just let things be. Erin was still young anyway. She still had time to find another husband. To avoid gossip among their relatives, her mother asked her not to tell anyone else about her divorce for the time being

For Erin, she wished that no one else had to ever know about her divorce. After all, society highly stigmatized and frowned upon matters like this

She held her phone with a melancholic expression on her face. At the end of the day, her mother was just looking out for her. Her mother kept telling her on the phone that it was a pity that she was divorced, that a good marriage had ended just like 

that

It wasn’t until Chandler sat beside her that she snapped out of her trance. Glancing at her phone, he asked, Were you on the phone with your mom just now?” 

Erin sighed. Yeah.” 

He guided her shoulder in his direction and let her rest her head against him. Softly, he said, She would have known sooner or later. It was better if she knew that Ian had been the one at fault in the first place.” 

Erin looked up at him, and in that moment, she believed without a doubt that the evidence Chandler had instructed Kyle to collect was solid. Her mother had no doubts and believed it completely

Thank you so much, Chandler! I really wouldn’t have known what to tell her exactly. I was afraid that she would try to 

reconcile us,she said

Chandler chuckled, No need to thank me. I was just looking out for myself either way.” 

Erin started, In the futureI think we still need to use protection when we do it. I don’t want to take too much medication. It doesn’t seem ideal for the body.” 

Chandler’s dark eyes flickered after hearing her words. Don’t worry, the medication I had my butler bring you is imported from another country. It has no side effects on women’s bodies. It can even regulate your menstrual cycle. Don’t you have period cramps too?” 

Erin raised her head instantly, disbelief evident on her features. She could not believe that those words had come from his 

mouth

Chandler pinched her chin and smiled. What? Do you not believe me? I thought we were trying to understand one another. I just happened to check your medical records just to see if there was anything strange.” 

Erin narrowed her eyes and asked, Do you know everything about me now, including the fact that I had chickenpox when I was a child?” 

He smiled mysteriously. What do you think?” 

She sighed exasperatedly. Knowing you and your paranoid caution, I wouldn’t be surprised if you’d investigated all eighteen decades of my ancestors and the history of my family-” 

Erin, that photo of you when you had chickenpox as a child was really ugly. Thank God you’re still so beautiful now.He looked at her out of the corner of his eyes, genuine appreciation filling his eyes

Erin punched his biceps lightly. She said jealously, Did you never have an ugly photo from childhood till now? I don’t see any scars on you.” 

Unexpectedly, her words made his black eyes cool instantly. His gaze lowered to her hands, those thick, dark eyelashes covering his eyes like a silhouette. Erin itched to touch them

Chandler captured her hands in his own. He seemed to be reminiscing about the past when he spoke. Because I have a father who is an absolute perfectionist. I’m sure you remember what Kyle told you on the cruise in Grecia about how I killed my biological mother. Everything he said was true. I am the greatest imperfection in my father’s life. Even though he tried his best to protect me from physical harm ever since I was a child, he also happened to be the person who scarred me the most.” 

Realizing that he had overshared, Chandler stood and prepared to leave

Erin’s heart ached for him. She had always thought of him as someone who got everything he wanted, but with that kind of father, had Chandler ever felt the warmth of family from childhood to adulthood? Instinctively, she tugged at his arm. She didn’t want him to have to go through it alone. When his lonely gaze swept in her direction, Erin couldn’t help but hug him 

tightly

Don’t leave. You don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to, but I’ll be here if you ever want to talk, okay?” 

Her words were a ray of sunshine that warmed his heart. He lifted her chin and pressed his lips on hers

It was as if he was trying to share the burden of the pain he felt in his heart with her. Erin didn’t mind it. Quite the contrary, she surrendered herself completely

This arrogant man seemed to have everything, but apparently, he had a side to him that no one else knew about

Two bodies pressed against each other tightly. In that split second, the room seemed to swirl ethereally, the air filled with 

romance

One afternoon three days later, Erin was walking out of the company’s building to buy some afternoon tea when Chandler said he wanted pastries. Actually, Erin knew that he had only said that on purpose as she had been browsing for all kinds of pastries online

In the past three days, her relationship with Chandler had completely transformed

He had suddenly started to treat her like a gentleman, and she could not bear to refuse him every time. As such, in just three short days, she was extremely sore all overher body was completely depleted. If it hadn’t been for the butler’s medication she’d taken afterward, she would have been worried sick about getting pregnant

As Erin exited the bakery, she ran into Ian’s mother and her former motherinlaw, Mary Cooper. A woman about her age was standing next to her

Since they had already bumped into one another, Erin felt she had to greet the other woman regardless of her current relationship with Ian. She was just about to greet Mrs. Cooper when the woman slapped her

You ungrateful little slut! You really are selfish and treacherous! My son has been nothing but accommodating toward you, yet you have the guts to go behind his back and seduce other men! I can’t even bear to tell him the truth.Mrs. Cooper was very emotional, and her hands trembled as she spoke

Erin was completely stunned by the sudden slap. Her left cheek tingled, burning pain spreading through her face. Mrs. Cooper’s words reverberated in her mind

The woman beside Mrs. Cooper started lecturing, Young lady, you look so sophisticated on the outside. How could you not learn proper ethics but behave like those seductive sluts on TV? You had a good husband, yet you failed to appreciate him, instead opting to seduce and flirt with other men everywhere. Didn’t your mother teach you properly?” 

What can her mother teach her? She is a divorced woman too! Who knows? Maybe she was only abandoned by her husband after fooling around so much and being a slut-‘ 

Mrs. Cooper had yet to finish before Erin yelled angrily. Enough! I only greeted you out of respect for our past relationship. Now, I am officially informing you that Ian and I are divorced! He cheated on me first, so don’t you go around slapping people without knowing what exactly happened. Also, I’m warning you, say whatever you want about me. I don’t care. But I will not stand by and watch as you insult my mother. I simply do not allow it!”
