CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 Everything She Hoped for Would Be Shattered

Francis stood up and said, "Ruby, I left the gift here. Lilian and I should leave now."

Ruby got a bit angry and stood up too, saying, "Frank, why are you in such a hurry to leave? We still have guests who haven't arrived yet. At least have a meal before leaving."

"Don't bother. I still have some work to do in the office," Francis replied as he took Lilian and left the Landau Residence without looking back.

"Ruby became even angrier. She couldn't understand what Francis meant. She could forget about his protection to this mute girl before. But what was he doing now?

Because he was forced to marry this mute girl under the circumstances that he had a girlfriend at that time. However, not only did he not mistreat her, he even moved out of the Landau Residence with her."

Did he like Lilian? He didn't say anything when their child was aborted, and he was still entangled with his ex-girlfriend.

He didn't like Lilian? He always protected her and refused to divorce her.

Back in the car, Francis lit a cigarette. It was clear that he was feeling irritated.

Lilian sat quietly in her seat, waiting for him to finish smoking.

After finishing the cigarette, Francis turned to look at Lilian.

She still had that docile look, with a faint smile, as if a servant was waiting for the master's orders.

Francis felt even more overwhelmed, but he couldn't explain why.

She was clearly no different from before.

"What do you think about what Ruby said just now?" Francis asked.

Lilian signed to him: "What?"

Francis gripped the steering wheel and stared at her intently, replying, "About having a baby."

He noticed that Lilian's smile froze, and it took her a few tries before she managed to put on a faint smile again.

She signed to him, meaning: "Your mother is right. We shouldn't have children."

From her own experiences, Lilian understood the lesson that everything she hoped for would eventually be shattered, just like a glass bottle being broken.
