Chapter 346 - 342: Bone-Deep Pain (Part 4)
Asher Land didn’t withdraw from her body, she felt his desire expanding inside her, and she inexplicably felt a bit panicked. She pressed against his chest, preventing him from making the next move.
"Asher, today, let’s just stop here, alright?" Her tone seemed to have a hint of pleading.
"Did I hurt you just now?" He was a little confused.
"No, it’s just,..."
"Okay, if you don’t want to, that’s fine." Asher had no intention of bothering her further. He picked her up, dried her body with a towel, and laid her on the bed.
She just lay down, but he wasn’t ready to sleep.
"I’ll go to the study, there’s still some unfinished business."
Watching his departing figure, her heart sank again.
Robert Williams called; through thorough investigation, he said that based on surveillance footage, there were no signs of any tampering in the CEO’s office.
He collected himself, trying to recall and remember some things clearly.
...
Sophie Smith went to the hospital early the next morning.
Recalling the madness of last night, her heart indeed felt a bit uneasy.
The doctor meticulously examined the baby’s ultrasound for a long time before looking at Sophie.
She was still dressed so discreetly, afraid someone would recognize her.
"The baby is very healthy, no problems."
Hearing this answer, Sophie let out a long sigh of relief from her heart.
"Doctor, are you really sure there’s nothing wrong with the baby?" Last night Asher was so intense... she indeed still felt uneasy.
"I’ve checked, there’s no problem, don’t worry." The doctor glanced at her, her face covered mostly by a large mask, but her eyes seemed a bit uneasy.
"Do you have any doubts? Speak up, I can answer them for you."
"It’s just, during the first three months of pregnancy, there shouldn’t be any sexual- activity, right?"
"It’s common knowledge, if careless, it could lead to a miscarriage."
The consequences are so severe, oh my, she must have been crazy last night to do it with him!
Seeing her expression change suddenly, the doctor was a bit puzzled too.
"What’s wrong?"
"Oh, I,..."
Seeing her stammering, the doctor had a bit of understanding.
"Anyway, you need to tell your husband to be more restrained. These three months must be endured, you young people are really..."
Being pointed out by the doctor, Sophie felt a bit embarrassed.
"I understand, thank you, doctor..."
After saying this, Sophie picked up her coat and walked out.
The cold wind blew past, she wrapped her coat tightly around her.
The outside was covered in white snow, she stood in the snow field, momentarily bewildered.
Where should she go?
She really didn’t dare face Asher again, last night, she didn’t even have the courage to look him in the eye...
Thanks to her actions, he should be busy dealing with chaos at the company right now.
The reason she did this was entirely due to Oliver Johnson’s coercion. Thinking of that man who toyed with her like that, she couldn’t help but gnash her teeth.
Without hesitation, she dialed his number; this time, he answered rather quickly.
"Oliver Johnson, I’ve done what you asked, can you let my father go now?"
Oliver Johnson, hearing the resentment in her tone, couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless.
"Miss Smith, I still don’t have enough confidence to topple Asher Land, so you may need to stay by his side a while longer to help me with some things."
