At dusk, the lights in the villa group started to light up one after another. Only the lights in Noah's house had not been turned on. He did not know what Mia was doing.
Noah frowned slightly and pushed open the door. When he entered, he saw that the house was pitch black.
Noah reached out and turned on the light first. He narrowed his eyes slightly to adjust to the light in the room.
He saw a person who had clearly just cried lying on the sofa. Her long curly hair covered her face slightly, and she was still scolding "Bastard Noah". She looked like she was crying quite miserably. Her nose and eyes were red. Her posture was actually a little sexy. Noah tugged at his collar and walked forward.
She walked in and saw a newspaper with a huge headline on the coffee table.
It read, "The CEO of Zhou Corporation, Noah, seems to be in a new relationship."
There was also an enlarged photo taken secretly.
Noah immediately knew what was going on. He reached out and rubbed his pretty wife, who was lying on the sofa. Her skin was smooth and elastic. Mia, who was being caressed, pouted. She looked like she was asking for a kiss. Noah wanted to wake her up to explain, but when he saw this scene, Noah could not hold it in any longer. He pulled off his tie and bent down to kiss his pretty wife. He had yet to touch her.
Mia woke up and opened her eyes to see Noah.
Mia didn't pounce on him as excitedly as she usually did. Instead, she shifted the papers on the table and revealed two copies of the divorce papers, one of which had already been signed.
"What do you mean?" Noah frowned. "I'm going to be an abandoned man?"
He took two steps towards his wife and said, "Why? Give me a reason."
"You—you cheated on me."
From the looks of it, Noah knew that she was still angry. Hence, he said, "Didn't I tell you not to read these gossip magazines? They are all nonsense. We only met yesterday to talk about some things."
Mia bit her lip with red eyes and did not say anything. She knew that Noah was outstanding and handsome. Back then, the two of them got together because of the request of the elders in the family.
The first time the two of them met was in Noah's grandfather's ward at the hospital. At that time, she had just graduated from university and was young and inexperienced. She was dressed in student attire. When she saw the tall and handsome Noah, she was so nervous that she could not even speak clearly. Because Noah's grandfather liked her very much, the first time he saw her, he held her hand tightly.
Noah's grandfather was very excited at that time. "Mia, don't worry. Your marriage was decided by your grandfather and me since we were young. We will let you get married in these two months. From now on, we will be your family. If Noah dares to bully you, tell grandfather. Grandfather will help you beat him up!"
Mia nodded shyly at that time. Of course she was happy to be able to marry Noah, because Noah looked like the Prince Charming in all girls' dreams. At that time, Mia remembered that it was not easy for her to muster up the courage to raise her head to look at Noah, but Noah's eyes were filled with disdain, as if he didn't like her at all. It was this scene that made Mia remember forever.
Mia said more quietly, "Divorce…"
Noah still felt that his pampered wife was angry and jealous because she saw the reports in the newspapers. After all, Mia usually had a good temper. She was almost always delicate and gentle, and she rarely lost her temper. Occasionally, she would be angry and jealous, which made Noah amused.
Noah lowered his head slightly and leaned towards his little wife. When he was about to touch her cheek, he stopped. This familiar sweet smell seduced him. Mia immediately softened under him, so he did not hesitate to push his little wife onto the sofa.
Noah apologized to his little wife with a slight smile. Then, he reached out to rub Mia's cheeks and then reached for her soft and tender earlobes. This was the most sensitive part of his wife. Usually, as long as he rubbed here, her little wife would immediately blush shyly and pounce deeper into his embrace.
His wife pursed her lips until they turned white. This was the first time she had rejected his pleas for sex since they got married. "I don't feel too well today."
Noah was stunned for a moment before he quickly stood up and asked, "Where are you feeling unwell? I'll call the doctor."
Upon hearing that he wanted to see a doctor, the young wife visibly flinched and shook her head vigorously.
Noah only thought that his wife was afraid of seeing a doctor and wanted to tease her. Just as he was about to reach out and rub her hair, he received a call from his secretary, reminding him not to forget about the 7 o'clock video conference. Noah hung up the phone and reached out to rub his wife's cheeks again. He said, "Tell me if you feel uncomfortable, okay? Don't hold it in and not say anything."
Mia nodded. Once Noah was upstairs, Mia pulled a crumpled piece of paper she'd hidden from the couch cushion. So this was a pregnancy test report. It said she was more than four weeks pregnant.
However, what should she do? The female celebrity, Jenny, who had been secretly filmed with Noah, came to look for her today. She happily told her that Noah was prepared to divorce her after Grandpa passed away. After all, Noah had not been willing to be together with her at that time. If not for the arranged betrothal between the two parties, Noah would not have married her no matter what.
Jenny also said that Noah had long been sick of her. "What kind of help you can provide for Noah? But it's different for me. My brand's appeal can at least help Noah advance in his career."
Mia felt like her heart was breaking as she thought. "Yeah, what can I offer Noah? I can't help him with anything. Instead, I make him unhappy because of our marriage."
Later on, when Mia looked at the female celebrity opposite her, her eyes started to lose focus. All she could see was the female celebrity's red lips opening and closing. Mia didn't know what the female celebrity was saying anymore, and she only remembered that she said that he was about to divorce her.
"Divorce. He's going to divorce me, but what about my baby? If Noah finds out, will he let me abort the baby?" Mia didn't dare think any further.
The next day, Noah came back a little late from work. The moment he entered, he saw his little wife sleeping on the sofa. Noah walked in and saw that there were still two items on the table, the newspaper and the signed divorce agreement.
Noah scoffed lightly. Then, he carried his sleeping wife and walked upstairs. He knew that his wife had always been a light sleeper. She was also very timid. Usually, when he was not around, she would even turn on the lights to sleep.
At the thought of this, Noah smiled. He leaned closer and secretly kissed his wife. The fragrance on her body seemed to emanate indistinctly. Noah carried his wife's weak and limp body and gently placed her on the bed. His wife was in a deep sleep and did not feel anything. She did not even know how many buttons of her pajamas had been opened, revealing her fair belly and soft waist. Just as he was about to go up and button it for her, she reached out to cover her stomach, as if she was conscious.
Noah was amused. He wondered what such a delicate and weak woman would look like when she got pregnant. As he thought of this, his hand reached out to Mia's stomach. Just as he was about to touch it, his wife, who was sleeping soundly just now, woke up and held her stomach, screaming, "No, don't touch me."
Noah was stunned. "Mia, what's wrong? It's me."
"I'm fine, I'm fine. I just had a nightmare…" His wife said timidly. Afraid that Noah would find out that she was pregnant, she quickly buttoned up her pajamas. Then, she started searching everywhere. The lights in the room weren't switched on, and the curtains were tightly drawn. Mia's vision was blurred as she mumbled, "Where's my divorce agreement?"
Noah ignored this sentence and directly reached out to pull his wife into his arms. He said, "Go to sleep quickly. I still have a meeting tomorrow."
His wife looked at him timidly without saying anything. Then, she turned around and curled herself up.
Actually, Mia felt that in the past few years, Noah had never really been interested in her. Other than visiting the old residence with her every New Year or holiday, he had never brought Mia along for any other activities. Mia had always been willing to endure hardship. As long as she was with Noah, she did not care about anything else.
But things were different now. Now that Mia had a baby she needed to protect, she had to get a divorce as soon as possible before her pregnancy showed. She couldn't let Noah find out.
It was also the baby that gave Mia the courage. Hence, for the next half a month, Mia would bring the divorce agreement and wait for Noah's return every day.
On the other side, Noah's patience was running out bit by bit. The person he saw every day after work was not his sweet wife, but someone who threw a tantrum every day and wanted a divorce.
Hence, when he got off work that day and saw the divorce agreement again, Noah did not remain silent anymore. He picked up the divorce agreement and said, "You really want a divorce? Think it through."
His wife sat on the sofa with her head lowered. She unconsciously clasped her fingers and said, "Didn't you read the newspaper?"
Noah was practically laughing from anger. "If you want a divorce so badly, fine. Let's get a divorce then."
The situation that had been in a deadlock for half a month suddenly changed. Mia was stunned. She first reached out her hand to touch her stomach. She did not know if she was happy or sad when she suddenly got the result she wanted. She did not expect Noah to not say anything to make her stay. It was as if they had never been together before. Thinking of this, Mia tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to fall.
Noah, who was beside her, picked up the divorce agreement that had already had Mia's name signed. He looked at it briefly, then tugged at his collar, undid his tie, and threw it aside.
Then, Noah turned around and sat on the sofa at the side. He said, "You know why we got married at that time. Now that Grandfather's condition is serious, we've already decided to visit him every week. If we suddenly tell him that we're getting a divorce, I'm afraid it will be quite a shock. I think that since he likes you so much, you don't want him to be agitated at this time and affect his condition, right? Just wait a few more days. When Grandfather's condition stabilizes, we'll talk about the divorce."
After hearing these words, the wife's hopes were completely dashed. She recalled what that female celebrity had said that day.
