My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1597

I wasn't sure if it was because I knew that Estella was interested in Hendrix, or because I rejected her request for promotion the last time. I felt guilty and thought that there was no need to pretend to be familiar with her.

So that was why it was said that women's instinct was a scary thing. One would never know when it would come and go, but once the instinct struck, one would be fully convinced and refused to compromise.

Through the rear mirror, I could notice that Estella's expression was unpleasant, and there was a slight disappointment. It was probably due to the sudden change of position from a professional in the company to my "nanny". She wasn't used to it yet.

We arrived home shortly after.

Before the driver could even stop the car, I saw Freya's car parked at the side of the road from afar.

When we got out of the car, Frey a had just gotten out of her car as well, and she happened to run into us.

"Did you just come back from the hospital?" As Freya said that, she held my hand as we walked in. When she noticed that Estella was following us, Freya asked casually, "Who's this? A new caretaker Hendrix found for you?"

Although Freya didn't mean it, her words were quite venomous. Although Estella was just a receptionist at the front counter, she was now Hendrix's assistant. She was the CEO's assistant, but now Freya called her a caretaker.

I didn't dare to glance backward at Estella's face. I patiently explained to Freya, "No, she's not. She's Hendrix's assistant. He was worried that I'll have problems during my preparation for pregnancy, so he asked her to come over temporarily to be my assistant. She still has to return to the company in the future."

"Oh." Freya wasn't interested and changed the subject. She continued, "Recently, I've been thinking about buying the house next to my mansion for Zachary's parents. What do you think?"
