"Alice, why are you talking to my husband like that?" asked Blaire, she told Javier to calm down but she couldn't accept her husband being demeaned like that. Alice turned back to Blaire and smiled."Blaire! I'm kidding, you know how I like to joke around with people. We've been friends for so long you know me!" Alice hugged Blaire's arm and Blaire could only force a smile."Right, forgive her, Jav. Alice does like to joke around," Blaire said clumsily and Javier just nodded his head with a smile."But you guys are really great and lucky to be seated at this table, I really wanted to sit here but always failed to get a reservation.""Really? I didn't know getting a table was that hard," Blaire replied. The table here is indeed beautiful, it's very cool and they can avoid the noise inside the restaurant, all they can hear is the sound of the night breeze and they can have an intimate conversation without the interference of others. Unfortunately Blaire and Javier had to be interrupted
"Javier doesn't let me stay at home either, he lets me go out a lot," Blaire interrupted them. Their laughter instantly stopped and they just nodded their heads, agreeing with Blaire's words without asking many questions and they were also not interested in Blaire and Javier's life which they thought must be very boring as poor people."But Blaire you're a little fatter, huh? Is it because you stay at home?" asked one of her female friends."No, she's pregnant." An annoyed Javier answered Blaire's friend's question. They kept trying to insult Blaire, even though they hadn't seen each other in a long time."Pregnant? Oh my God, Blaire are you really pregnant?" Everyone was shocked, but there was no happiness in their eyes. Instead, they seemed to pity Blaire for getting pregnant by a poor man like Javier."Why didn't you postpone it?" Blaire just smiled as she stroked her slightly enlarged belly."Why keep putting it off? We've been married for two years, it's about time we had a baby,
"Are you sure that's your card? It's not stolen, right?" one of Blaire's friends asked again. Even though they had paid for all their meals, they still looked down on Javier."Stolen?" Javier laughed at the accusation."I don't come from a rich family like you but I would never think of stealing other people's things," Javier said firmly."Or is that Blaire's card? Blaire, why did you let your husband use your card to pay all of us?" They now asked Blaire who immediately shook her head vigorously."That card is not mine...""To be honest with us, you're ashamed that you've been paying for the whole time you've been married to him, right? That's too bad for you. I've given you advice not to marry him, but you're so stubborn and keep thinking about that worthless love.""Love can't buy you anything you want." They continued to throw comments at Javier and Blaire."They're so shameless," Javier snorted to himself. He was desperate to prove to them and shut them up that he wasn't as poor
"Of course I know him," Javier replied a little nervously."You've made a lot of friends with other employees, huh? Even with the new CEO's secretary," Blaire said. She didn't expect her husband to get along so easily with his coworkers, even though Javier usually didn't hang out with many people. Javier and Blaire had been friends since childhood and Javier even had Blaire as his only friend. Javier was smart enough to focus on his studies rather than other people."They're very friendly to me, that's why I easily make friends with them, especially Jay." Blaire just nodded his head when he heard what Javier said."It's already 9 o'clock and I'm still hungry," Blaire complained, making Javier feel guilty for asking his wife to leave first."We haven't even finished our food yet, too bad." Javier looked around and there were no restaurants open, he couldn't take Blaire to another restaurant."Do you want to find another restaurant before you go home?" Javier asked still looking around
"Blaire, did you get the text message from the Ford Group?" asked Javier as he put on his shirt and walked into the kitchen. His wife was busy making breakfast for Javier and shook her head when she heard his question."No, what is it?" Blaire asked back. Javier had just gotten a text message from Jay earlier saying that the company wanted to meet Blaire and Andrew Joseph today to talk about their big contract offer and the benefits it would bring to both companies."You'd better check now before it's too late, is it half past 8 in the morning? I heard there will be news for the chosen candidate," Javier said as he sat down at the dining table after putting on his tie, he started eating Blaire's pancakes."Oh my god, that's right! I haven't even checked my phone since yesterday because I was too busy." Blaire quickly ran to her room and grabbed her cell phone and soon returned."Let's hurry, you have to have breakfast too." Javier told Blaire to join him for breakfast but his wife was
It was already 10 a.m. Blaire had arrived at Ford Group after being picked up by her mother. Anne was happy because it was her first time in the biggest company in the country and this was the only company she had ever had a hard time working with. But now she could get in and luckily she had prepared a very good plan that would be very beneficial to both parties."This meeting will make you successful, Blaire. Not only you but the company too!" her mother squealed with delight."What do you mean, mom?" asked Blaire. But her mom didn't answer and was busy looking around. She gaped in amazement because the Ford Group's corporate building was so big, it was twice as big as her family's company."If we succeed, maybe you can make a company building this big," her mom said again. Blaire felt a little happy that her mother seemed pleased with her selection as the winning candidate for this contract bid. It was different from yesterday."Are you sure I'm going to make it, Mom?" Blaire asked
"Right, I'm Blaire. I didn't know you knew me." Blaire awkwardly greeted the man back. She had never even met him in school, but now Andrew was addressing her as if he knew her and that made Blaire a little awkward."Of course I know you," Andrew replied with a chuckle as if Blaire had told him a joke."You should be happy that Andrew knows you!" her mom squealed, she was so happy to see that Andrew knew Blaire. Blaire just nodded her head and tried to get away from Andrew and her mom. Anne was seen approaching Andrew and they had a nice conversation, her mother's friendly attitude towards Andrew, exactly the same as how her mother was friendly towards Albert and Blaire started to feel uncomfortable. "Mrs. Blaire and Mr. Andrew, you can go to the 5th floor. There's a meeting room and you can go in there," said the receptionist who had just finished calling someone."Blaire, I'll wait for you here," her mother said but Blaire immediately shook her head."No need, mom. This will proba
Right at lunchtime, the meeting was over. Blaire understood everything Jay said, as well as all the things she needed to prepare. Even though she was pregnant, but doing all this didn't make her tired at all, she felt happy because this was everything she wanted for a long time."Thanks for coming, I'll call you back later," Jay said as he cleared the files he was carrying and got up from his seat."Can't we meet your CEO in person?" Andrew asked suddenly. Blaire also had a feeling about the new CEO of the company, but she understood that they had a reason for hiding the identity of their new CEO."Isn't it inappropriate, welcoming guests but with only the secretary?" Andrew continued and Jay just smiled politely."Forgive us if you feel this is rude, but our CEO is busy and hasn't had time to meet you in person. Maybe when one of you is selected, you can meet him," Jay replied but Andrew snorted mockingly."This is absolutely ridiculous. Is he hiding his physique because he's embarra
