Love was pure and had no impurities. Her mother’s experience seemed to have burdened her. She had a bad feeling that she would repeat the same mistakes and wait for a hopeless result like her mother.
Tears welled up in June's eyes. She lowered her head and started to cry.
"No, I don't want to be like that. No," She muttered to herself. She wanted to live an ordinary and real marriage life like all the other women. She didn't want to live in the dark, and struggled in the shadows for half of her life.
Skylar swayed the red wine glass and stood on the top floor of the tall building. The life she was enjoying at the moment was what all women dreamed of. Money was no longer a thing, but the rich material possessions made her spiritual world more empty.
Justin came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. Looking at her back, he went over and hugged her affectionately, "Skylar, I'll find a doctor to prescribe medicine for me tomorrow. After all, we still have to have a child."
Skylar's back suddenly stiffened. She didn't look back at the old face. She still stared out of the window. She and Justin had been married for many years and had no children. Justin always thought that it was his problem, but actually, it was Skylar who didn't want to have children.
"Justin, don't push yourself too hard. Your health is more important. Let's talk about having a child later," Skylar finished the wine, turned back, and said to Justin with concern in her eyes.
"But I really want to have our child. If it was a son, the company would have an heir. That would be great," The older Justin was, the more eager he was to have an heir. Although he had a daughter, she was not his ideal candidate.
Of course, Skylar also hoped that she could have a son so that her status would be stable. However, when she thought that her son's father was not Jonas, she suddenly felt disgusted. She did not want to give birth to Justin's child. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to be with Jonas in the future.
"You think too much, that’s why your body is getting worse. Without a son, you still have a daughter, don't you? I will accompany and take good care of you in the future," Skylar quickly comforted him and pretended to be sporting.
Justin looked at her and smiled gently. Then he nodded and said, "Well, with your company, I won't live in vain. It's getting late. Let's go to bed early."
Skylar closed her eyes. To be honest, she didn't want to share a bed with Justin. Justin was old, and there was always a smell of medicine on his body, which was very pungent. Skylar would wake up at midnight and then lose sleep. As for physical contact, Skylar was extremely disgusted, but she couldn't show it. She still pretended to be happy to play along.
"Okay," Skylar nodded, then lay down and said, "Justin, my friend’s birthday is in a few days, I have to go abroad. When I come back, I will buy you a gift."
"Really? Do you want me to go with you?" Justin asked curiously.
"No need. They're all women. If you go along, they'll talk bad about me," Skylar immediately said coquettishly.
"All right, then you have fun," Justin did not suspect her, but only spoiled her gently.
Skylar secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she was not going abroad to attend her friend's birthday party. She just heard that her alma mater was going to hold a class celebration. Jonas was a guest on the list. She wanted to go there secretly because she was also a graduate of that college. If she could meet him by chance, she would not let go of such a good opportunity.
In fact, she was very willing to give birth to a child, but she did not want to give birth to Justin's child. She wanted to give birth to Jonas’ child. Even if she had to bear great risks in the end, she was not afraid. This time, if there was a chance to create such an opportunity when she went abroad, she was really willing to do it.
Jonas received an invitation for a celebration of his college. Because there was a teacher whom he respected there, and the invitation was full of sincerity, so he could not refuse.
