Larissa Seymour only realized that Travis Hardy may have cheated on her after seeing the bunch of pregnancy supplies in his Amazon shopping cart.Back when Travis was wooing her, Larissa had told him frankly that she had no desire to have children. Travis had said, "That’s fine. It’s even better if it’s just the two of us." Only then did Larissa agree to be with him, and they got married.So, the pregnancy supplies were definitely not for her.Larissa thought for a moment. Among all the relatives and friends Travis had, the only one who had recently gotten pregnant was a female subordinate of his, Amber Fox.The last time their department had hosted a team gathering, she'd forgotten her keys and gone to Travis for his. She saw Amber rubbing the tiny bump on her stomach while sitting next to Travis. Their postures were definitely more intimate compared to their other colleagues.Larissa had not felt comfortable with it then, but when Amber greeted her graciously, she thought that s

During the morning meeting, the general manager announced the news of the "important guest" checking in and expected all department managers to supervise those under their command to ensure that they were as careful and meticulous as possible.As the housekeeping manager who had frequent direct contact with the "important guest," Larissa was held back for extra instructions and exhortations. "Mr. Rogers has extreme germaphobia, so the rooms must be kept clean at all times. Work together with the reception; the moment they see Mr. Rogers heading out, tell the cleaning staff to clean his rooms immediately. Additionally, the cleaning staff are not allowed to touch Mr. Rogers’ personal effects. Not even once!"Larissa thought it was a little ridiculous. "But what if Mr. Rogers left his clothes or whatever on the bed or something? Do we not make the bed for him then, just to avoid touching his clothes during cleaning?""Firstly, with his personality, Mr. Rogers would never just toss his

"Ms. Seymour here is my daughter-in-law. She’s been married to my son for almost a year but hasn’t gotten pregnant yet. We’ve never held it against her and wanted to take her to the hospital for checkups, but she refused no matter what. She even spoke aggressively to me in front of a bunch of relatives to embarrass me!"But even then, my foolish boy didn’t divorce her and kept protecting her! Since she’s incapable of getting pregnant, my son found a way and got a surrogate instead. She even agreed to it, but now that the surrogate is pregnant, she wants to back out of it! Two nights ago, she even pushed the surrogate down onto the floor at a fancy restaurant. The woman was already four months pregnant! Also, she poured hot stew all over the poor girl! The surrogate nearly lost the baby, and she’s still under observation at the hospital!"Tell me, people. How can she be so cruel!"Larissa always knew that Janine’s skills in distorting the truth were impeccable but hearing the ridicul

"What the hell do you mean?" Larissa was no longer able to keep calm, and she leaped to her feet, scaring the waiter who had brought her drink over."Your—your lemon tea, miss." The waiter put the cup on the table nervously, his eyes darting between the two before leaving. Even then, he kept turning back to look at them.Having been interrupted like that, Larissa recognized that she was in a public setting and somewhat restrained her discontent."I paid the down payment, and I’ve been paying the monthly mortgage too. If the house has nothing to do with me, then who else could it belong to?" She struggled to keep her voice low enough so that only the two of them could hear.Hearing this, Travis unhurriedly retrieved yet another document from his ever-present briefcase."Take a look at this."On the top of the first page, bold letters announced the document to be an agreement for the gifting of property. Larissa’s gaze stopped at the title for two seconds before she began reading q

Dylan spat out the water he had just drunk.He hurriedly leaned forward to grab tissues from the dispenser and wiped his mouth as well as the wet stains on his clothes."My apologies." He was a tad embarrassed, and yet there was a hint of amusement in his eyes. Once he had straightened up again, he pretended to act serious by rubbing his chin in deep thought. Then he said in a straight-faced manner, "There actually is something wrong with Mr. Rogers. He really does have a problem."Larissa perked up at that."He’s a total germaphobe," Dylan grumbled with disdain, clearly having been a victim of it.This bit of gossip was nothing exciting for Larissa, but as she had not quite experienced it herself, she could not relate to him.She just didn't quite understand. "How does being a germaphobe have anything to do with rejecting Karin Gallagher?""Mr. Rogers’ germaphobia is so extreme that he can’t even have bodily contact with anyone else. When he goes out on business trips, he doesn
