she had spent eight years of her life there. There were too many silent grief concealed deep within her heart. The truth was, no one could ever comprehend her anguish. Only she knew exactly how belittled and awful she was throughout that time. She didn't want to display her frailty in front of just anybody. Writting was her only way to vent out anger.

William couldn't help frowning after hearing that. What was she attempting to hide?

"Come here." He spoke in a hushed voice. Ada paused upon hearing that.

She could never grasp what this guy was thinking at every time, but she had no option but to attend to him.

She gently inched closer towards him.

WWilliam lifted his eyebrows slightly. Ada took over the paper and remarked in a quiet voice, "I have attempted to interview for the script position at your firm. It appeared that they truly wanted me for the position, but later on, for some reason, I was being branded as inappropriate for this job."

William observed her attentively and destroyed her aspirations before she could offer anything, "If you' re thinking of including the Mountain Hill in this, I have to say no. The Wood family couldn't purchase the property for now."

Ada was absolutely going to tackle this matter, but she was going to grab that piece of property for her own instead of letting Alfred possess it. That manner, she could finally get a negotiating chip that permitted her to speak on equal footing with Alfred . Obviously, her suggestion had been rejected even before she could bring it up.

A poor script of coursewouldn't be able to help her use it to buy a piece of land . "You may compensate me with money." Since she couldn't take back her mother's dowry for now, she had to earn extra money so that her mother could live her life peacefully.

In the future, she would have a kid. She needed a lot of money to guarantee their future was a great one.

Ada flicked the pages of the paper gently.

"I will charge one hundred thousand for trial writing. This is a very reasonable offer if you ask me."

William remained to keep mute upon hearing that.

William didn't provide an answer, therefore Ada assumed that William was unwilling to offer her that amount,

"The sum I just said is actually not much, you know. If you think it's a little too expensive, should I. decrease my price?"

"There's no need for it. I' ll pay you for what you have asked."

"Alright then." Ada grabbed the paper and got up,

"I need some tim. I'll finish it in my room and send it back."

"Wait!"

"Yes?"

"I hope you understand," he warned.

William stood up and walked towards her.

He told Ada, "You're still my wife in name, so don't sleep with other men."

He didn't care how they met. He couldn't accept infidelity while they were married.

This was his limit and manhood!

Ada didn't understand him. When did she start dating men?

Didn't you sleep with other ladies here?

"I didn't sleep with other ladies," William's brow furrowed.

Ada froze. She thought Jean slept here yesterday.

William's face became worse every minute.

Ada softened her tone and said, "I'll try to comply. I'll..."

She waved the paperwork to signal her intentions. William stammered a reply, but his voice was angry.

Not Ada, but himself! Why would he tell her? He was nuts.

Ada needed to complete trial scripts quickly since she had a bar job. She wasn't finished by midnight.

Her vitality was dwindling. She took the paperwork to the living room to freshen up.

The mansion was silent then.

William and Rose were likely sleeping.

She put the papers on the table and poured lukewarm water. She set the cup down and sat on the carpet.

William was thirsty so he went downstairs in the middle of the night.

As Ada passed him the materials, he frowned.

When William noticed a cup of water on the table, he instantly drank it.

Ada intended to tell William she was using the cup, but he was already drinking from it.

She couldn't continue. William saw that she was hesitant.

His eyes lingered on her for many seconds before moving to his cup.

Under the light, he spotted lipstick on the cup's edge. His lips nearly brushed the cup.

He used someone else's cup. Ada's response suggests it was her.

Ada remained still, staring at the floor.

Her face burned, nevertheless. They were too unknown to share a cup, therefore she found it too personal.

William licked his lips, which trembled slightly. He didn't know what to do, so he drained the cup at once. He set the cup down and approached her.

"Are you asleep yet?" Ada kept her head down,

"I'm not sleeping yet." William glanced at her before heading upstairs. When he reached the top of the stairs, he recalled she had interviewed at his firm but wasn't chosen.

He returned to his room and called Mathew. Matthew was asleep when the phone rang, so he was irritated.

He snatched the phone with disgust, cursing whomever called him so late at night. Seeing the caller's name erased his fury. "Yes, Mr. Greenburg," he said uneasily.

"Find out why HR declined employing a the script author."

Why would the president contact him for something so silly? His face warped.

Was he intentionally waking him up?

The following morning, Rose saw Ada sleeping on the table.

She suspected it was work-related and sighed, "Don't overwork yourself without sleeping."

She covered Rose with a blanket despite not understanding Ada's condition.

William was descending stairs.

Seeing Rose cover Ada with a blanket, he felt a muted but growing emotion.

He approached her and picked up the papers. She wrote documents flawlessly.

Doesn't she sleep? William glanced at her.

Rose sighed, unsure what to say.

William was eating when Ada woke up.

She massaged her eyes while straining on the table, but her legs were numb.

She had to wait till the sensation subsided before waking up. She washed up and took a bath to revive herself.

Ada came out of her room after getting dressed and handed William the paperwork.

"If you're free, pay me," she said. She feared he wouldn't pay her.

"I don't carry cash," William said after staring at her for two seconds.

" Find me later in the company." He then stood up.

Ada sipped her milk and decided to drop the topic. She wouldn't mind the specifics as long as he paid.

Ada worked hard to finish the trial script so nothing would impact her new job today.

Ada departed shortly after William.

Ada wore a maid dress which revealed her long, delicate legs.

Jean sat at a window table.

She was happy since William invited her to a lunch. Despite acknowledging their bond and agreeing to marry her, William never took the initiative.

"I heard you're the only one who didn't employ Ada to write script?"

Matthew told him previously in the firm.

Jean gripped her chair's armrest. Who told him?

William was reclining on his chair in the sun. He casually propped up his chin while inspecting.

She was frightened of losing him. "You've known me for a long time," she blinked.

" Jean stutters while holding back tears and says, "I dread losing you, therefore I meddled in the recruiting process."

William scowled and said, "I told you we'd divorce in three months."

Jean was clear. If Ada wasn't he girrl from that night, she would have waited. She became impatient. She couldn't allow Ada and William get close.

"Ada, here is table 3" Serve." Ada replied, although her lower abdomen hurt. She wasn't sure whether she hadn't slept properly or had been standing at work for too long. She brought the food tray to table , but before she got there, she saw Jean and the guy seated opposite her. She froze for a second but quickly recovered.

She had to face them for work.

"Your drinking is arrived," she smiled politely.

When she put a cup in front of William, he grabbed her wrist and said,

"What are you doing?" His tone was stern.

His eyes lingered on her clothes.

His face clouded as he regarded her legs.

Who was she seducing?

Why was she still working after getting married?

Ada smiled and said, "I'm working."

William's eyebrows were angry.

Last night she was looking for money for a script, and now she's doing this.

Jean remarked, "William, Let's go outdoors."

William and Ada married secretly. Jean didn't want William to tell anybody. William gazed at Ada for a while before calming down.

"I don't want you working here," he said, releasing her hand.

Ada could only focus on the constant stomach agony.

Cold perspiration beaded her forehead. Her health prevented her from arguing. She grabbed the cup and went.

This unexpected agony terrified her.She stopped at the sink after leaving her cubicle and told her tummy, "Be obedient, my baby."

She needed money to care for her mother and her unborn child.

Jean entered the bathroom and heard Ada chatting to herself.

Ada observed her countenance shift and quickly said, "This baby isn't William's, so don't look so horrified."

Ada then rallied, eager to leave the restroom.

Two months old? Jean said. Ada halted and turned, "How did you know?"

Jean guessed based on her stomach's size.

Is Ada pregnant? And William could have that baby.

She couldn't let Ada remain at William's side.

Jean wanted to erase this lady from William's life.

William took Ada out of the restaurant when she left the restroom.

After being tugged about by him, she felt the anguish resurface.

"Go!" William pulled her to the wayside, then let go.

"If you need money, tell me," he threatened. No need to be pitiful!"

He'd just observed Alfred take his family to a premium store. Ada was a waitress. Ada grabbed to a roadside sign for support. Otherwise, she'd fall.

"Mr. Greenburg, we're simply a couple," she said.

"If you're my wife, do you realize you're humiliating me? "William didn't comprehend her. He didn't understand her reasons. Ada pursed her lips in anguish.

Jonson strutted towards them as she was about to fall, saying, "Ada, I'm come to search for you, but I didn't expect you to be here."

Ada's distress wasn't hidden from Jonson.

Since they split that day, he's looked for Elizebeth and learned about Ada'baby.

He couldn't express his emotions. It was unpleasant.

Why didn't she seek his aid if she was so stressed? He wanted to find her but didn't know her address. He tried his luck at the area they'd previously met, and he ran into her.

Ada was preoccupied. Her stomach hurt too badly.

She urged Jonson to take her to the hospital. Jonson looked at her stomach and was going to pick her up when a great force hit his sshoulders.

"She's my wife,"

His tone was weak yet frightening.

Jonson smiled sarcastically, "You're married?"

. William inquired menacingly, "Is that your child?"

Who else possibly be the father of Ada 's kid other than this guy?

Jonson immediately felt very horrible for Ada .

Seeing Jonson's look, William assumed that he confessed it with silence.

William scoffed, "What do you know?!"

Jonson instantly yelled. His eyes were a touch crimson.

He knew what William intended to say. William probably assume Ada was a harlot, since she became pregnant at such an early age.

But William had no clue what Ada had gone through!

Jonson gazed at William's outfit, which was incredibly costly.

Jonson couldn't resist thinking that William's outfit may already a rich as an average worker's one-year income.

"You are from a noble affluent family. Did you ever suffer from poverty? Did you ever know how it feels to have no money, no food? Did you ever had the sensation of helplessness?You don't know what she endured to live until now."

Ada grabbed Jonson's hand and jerked her head towards him to warn him to stop.

She didn't need compassion and pity love from anybody.

She only wanted to live and take excellent care of her mom and her kid.

"Take me to the hospital." Ada couldn't stand here longer.

"OK." Jonson leaned down and hugged her in his arms.

Seeing that William was still being taken aback by what Jonson stated, Ada felt uneasy.

"Sorry, I can't stop working. But I can tell you that I will never let anybody know about it. I won't do anything to make you embarrassed."

William frowned. Then he gazed at Ada 's face and felt complicated.

No one knew better than Jonson about Ada 's condition presently.

Ada was in Jonson's arms now and her entire body was shivering while talking to William.

Jonson pulled her to thecar and murmured softly, "Don't be scared. You will be alright." Jonson drove as swiftly as possible to the hospital. Staring at the car drive away, William couldn't stop thinking about what Jonson said and wondered what secret Ada held.

Sometimes, Ada did behave abnormally.

To find out what was going on, he pulled out his mobile phone and gaveMathew a call. "Search for me about Ada ."

William hung up instantly.

"William." Jean raced out of the restaurant and instantly clutched his arm, "Are you still furious with me for not allowing Ada join the company? I know I was wrong. I simply love you too much..."

"No. let's go back." There were no emotions in William's voice or attitude, which made Jean feel discomfort somehow.

She couldn't stop wondering, who did he call just now? At the same moment, at the hospital,Ada was transported to the surgery room. And Jonson waited outside.

He felt discomfort and kept examining the operation room via the little glass.

About an hour later, the door to the operating room opened and Ada was pushed out.

Jonson hastily went up, "How is she?"

The doctor pulled the mask off and remarked, "Because of overwork, she received the symptom of miscarriage. She is OK now. But she has to rest longer, else, she may not be so fortunate next time."

"I understand." Jonson pushed Ada inside the ward.

Ada glanced at Jonson and stated seriously, "Thank you for always assisting me."

"It's alright as long as you are OK."

"You paid the hospital money for me. I don't have money to pay back yet." Ada pulled her dry lips.

"Don't speak about this now, you need to relax." Jonson didn't like her treating him always sweetly as if he was simply an outsider of her heart. Entering the ward, Ada stared at him,

"Can you kindly ask my mother to come here." She didn't want to give Jonson too much difficulty. Jonson believed she missed Elizebeth.

He got out his mobile phone and contacted Elizebeth, informing her that Ada was in the hospital, and requested her to come over.

When Elizebeth heard this, she asked in a panic, "What's wrong with Ada ?"

"She is okay. She simply needs to relax more. She wants to see you." Hearing that, Elizebeth took a relief. Then she hurried to the hospital as quickly as possible.

Once Elizebeth came, Ada requested Jonson to go home. "Yes, I'm sorry for giving you problems." Elizebeth apologized honestly.

"It's alright. I shall go back now and I will see you tomorrow." Jonson stared at her,

"Take a nice rest."

"Thank you."

As soon as Jonson departed, Elizebeth sat on the bedside and covered Ada with a duvet.

"Do you want to eat something?" Ada shook her head, and she looked sick. Looking at Ada , Elizebeth felt terribly sad.

"You may have a very bright future. But you lose your studies due of me. And now..." Thinking about the infant in Ada's womb, Elizebeth felt so sorry that her heart really hurt, "You stated you became pregnant in A Country. What if it is a youngster with golden hair and blue eyes?" Elizebeth concerned that the person Ada slept with that night was a local.

"No matter how he looks like, he is still my kid."

Ada didn't want to think about that night, after all, it was not a pleasant night for her.

"A Country?" William arrived to the hospital to see Ada . He intended to knock on the door, but then he noticed Elizebeth was chatting to Ada inside, so he changed his mind. "Well, it doesn't matter how he looks like, he is still my grandson."

Elizebeth didn't continue. As long as Ada was pleased, Elizebeth was prepared to obey her desire and take care of her.

Elizebeth couldn't stop wondering that maybe she and the infant were destined to be family. After all, Ada became pregnant after just one night of being with that man.

"My Ada , you got to suffer because of me."

"She kept the baby?" William believed that Ada was like a riddle.

At the hospital that day, he watched her entered the surgery room. Seeing Ada and Elizebeth were conversing, William didn't want to interrupt them. He turned and went away.

When he got to the entrance of the hospital, the mobile phone in his pocket rang. He pulled it out and sawMathew's name on the screen. He took it up. "I verified what you asked for."

"Eight years ago, Alfred and Elizebeth were divorced. Then Alfred quickly sent Elizebeth and their daughter Ada to A Country. They had never gone back in the last eight years. Alfred snatched them back not long ago."

William frowned.

Matthew stopped for a few seconds and then said,

"After Elizebeth was transported to A nation, she gave birth to a son with autism. That youngster endured rough life, and died in acar accident before Elizebeth and Ada returned."

William frowned. He couldn't but assume, the reason Ada felt so unhappy was because of her brother? Then what occurred with the kid in her tummy now?

William asked, "That's it? No guy has ever been close to her?"

"No...only a psychologist was close to her."

. Matthew said, "That's all. She didn't date anybody at school, and no other males were close to her."

William was thinking, in other words, the child's father may be the psychologist.

And the reason Alfred brought her back was mainly because of their marriage?

The reason she cared a lot about money was since she had a terrible life in A Country, which was also why she charged money for trial witting.

Thinking at it in this manner, William felt that finally, he understood Ada better.

He glanced back, then got in thecar and left the hospital.

In the hospital, Ada became hungry since she didn't have lunch.

"Mom, I want to eat sweets."

Elizebeth had gone through the same thing. She understood that when a lady was pregnant, she would always favor specific kinds of food.

"I'll go back and cook it for you." Elizebeth got up, at the same moment, concerned that no one would take care of Ada at the hospital.
