Love Is a Sweet Addiction

“Clark, why did you mention that the moment you saw Esther?” Gill pretended to blame him with a slight smile, “Esther won’t be able to make it by herself. Terence has to cooperate.”

Only in front of Clark would Gill reveal a smile.

Although Esther didn’t know why Gill didn’t want her to have a baby with Terence, she’d still like to thank her for helping her out. After all, it wasn’t the proper time for her to have a baby with Terence due to her current position among the Gibsons as well as her relationship with him.

And most of all, she hadn’t seen her mysterious husband for days. So she wouldn’t have a chance to carry a baby even if she was willing to do that.

However, Clark said with disapproval, “Why wouldn’t Terence cooperate? He won’t need to carry the baby. Neither will he babysit the newborn. He just needs to do his part.”

“Clark, you know that Terence hasn’t forgotten her yet.” Realizing that she shouldn’t have mentioned that woman, Gill stopped immediately and changed the topic with a glance at Esther, “Terence has just returned home from abroad. Give him some time to get used to the life at home.”

Although she changed the topic so fast, Esther was observant enough to get some information from her words.

Who was the woman in Terence’s heart? The lady in the portrait.

As Gill said, he didn’t want a baby, did he?

It was also what Esther wanted, wasn’t it?

For the past few years, Esther had been working in her friend’s design studio of bridal gowns. The work there wasn’t easy, but she liked it.

Since the bridal gowns she designed were quite popular, she had been made a co-partner of the studio this year.

The company of Esther’s father had been taken over by Anne, but having a studio of her own could be a comfort for her.

As Esther entered the studio, Serena and Linsay, her friends and partners, asked her about her life at the Gibson’s and the secrets about Terence with all smiles. Even several of her subordinates were being so excited to hear the gossip about her, and they’d like to know more.

Casting a glance at Serena, Esther said in a curt tone, “As the leader of our company, could you set a good example? Don’t you want to see our company develop well?”

“Come on. How could you even hide it from us?” Serena curled her lips in displeasure.

“I got plenty of stuff on my plate. Please don’t bother me, will you?” Esther pushed Serena back to her seat, and then went back to her work.

Everyone had heard of the rumors about Terence, so how could her colleagues not be interested in the gossip about them? Their curiosity made sense.

However, it was just that even she herself didn’t know what Terence looked like, so she had nothing to tell them. Could she tell them that Terence was ugly?

When Esther was about to get off in the afternoon, she got a call from Serena, who got off earlier. Serena scolded James, who cheated on her, at first and then comforted her for her miserable marriage to Terence on the phone. In the end, Serena told Esther to meet her in the usual place at once.

Esther raised her wrist to check the time, saying, “You called me at this time of the day. Are you going to treat me to dinner?”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“More than just having dinner with you. I’ve also brought you a super handsome guy. I promise he’s super hot. Hurry and come here.” A mysterious smile appeared on Serena’s face.

Esther found it unbelievable, “Miss Serena, do you think it’s appropriate to set me up on a date?”
