Neal Reid felt so humiliated that he wanted to hide as he thought of the encounter earlier today.
Many people he knew were present, and the reputation he had worked so hard to create was ruined.
Who knew how many of them were laughing at him behind his back, thinking he sent someone to sleep with Martin Weiss? They must have thought he had lost his mind!
A man like Martin Weiss could have any woman he wanted. Would he want someone who had already slept with Neal Reid?
Thinking of this, Neal Reid rushed forward again and slapped Jacqueline Bowman several times.
Jacqueline Bowman’s face was soon beaten swollen. “Neal, listen to me. I… I went to see Martin Weiss for the sake of your business. I really did it for you…”
“Do you think I can’t see through you? Jacqueline Bowman, don’t you know what kind of woman you are? You’re lucky that I was willing to make your life as comfortable as it is now. Otherwise, do you think an ex-convict like you can enjoy such a comfortable life? Since you want to be with Martin Weiss more, you can go to him. It seems my place isn’t good enough for you! Hence, I’m taking this house back. I’ll give you three days to leave!”
Neal Reid was about to walk away after saying that.
Jacqueline Bowman was taken aback. Ignoring the pain, she hurriedly tried to grab Neal Reid.
She would have nothing left if she got evicted.
“Neal, don’t kick me out. I’ve been with you for so many years. I really did it for you. I won’t go look for Martin Weiss again. As for the business deal you mentioned, I… I’ll go look for Kyla again. I’ll find a way to get her to help you…”
Unfortunately, Neal Reid kicked Jacqueline Bowman to the floor before she could finish. Jacqueline Bowman instantly felt a sharp pain in her stomach.
“Ouch… Neal, my stomach hurts…” she murmured.
However, Neal Reid ignored her and walked away.
Jacqueline Bowman could only endure the pain and dialed 120 herself. When she lay in the hospital bed and heard what the doctor told her after her examination, her face turned ghastly pale.
She… had a miscarriage!
She did not even know that she was pregnant! She kept thinking she could change her fate after getting pregnant with Neal Reid’s baby, but the baby she worked so hard to conceive was now gone.
Furthermore, what was crueler was that she learned from the doctor that her body had difficulties conceiving right from the start. The miscarriage this time had dealt a severe blow to her body that the chances of her getting pregnant again in the future were slim.
Jacqueline Bowman felt a pang of despair.
If she could not have children, things would not end well for her even if she tried her best to get back together with Neal Reid!
Sooner or later, Neal Reid would still get rid of her!
‘Why? Why is this happening to me? This is all Kyla’s fault!’
If Kyla had been willing to help her out a little, Neal would not have done this to her, nor would she have lost her baby. She could have used the baby in her belly to become the official Mrs. Wu!
Jacqueline Bowman’s hatred grew as she thought of it!
‘Kyla could become Mrs. Weiss, conceive Martin Weiss’s child, and live a happy life!
‘Why should I be so miserable? Even Neal Reid has abandoned me!’
Hatred flashed across Jacqueline Bowman’s eyes as her fingers wrapped tightly around her phone.
She was busy thinking of something!
Three days later, Jacqueline Bowman came to Kyla’s store again. Kyla froze when she saw the state Jacqueline Bowman was in.
Jacqueline Bowman’s face was pale, and the bruises on her face had not subsided. She looked gaunt.
“What happened to you?” asked Kyla.
Jacqueline Bowman forced a smile. “Neal beat me. He blamed me for being useless because I couldn’t help him get a business deal with Weiss Group, so he beat me.”
Kyla was silent. After all, Jacqueline Bowman had come to her before, hoping to help Neal Reid strike a business deal with Martin Weiss. However, she refused.
Jacqueline Bowman looked at the state Kyla was in and pretended to be generous as she said, “Kyla, don’t take it to heart. It has nothing to do with you. I just loved the wrong person. I didn’t expect him to hit me just because he failed to get a business deal.”
Jacqueline Bowman paused again and said apologetically, “I said some mean things when I left the last time. Don’t take those words to heart. I was just in a bad mood! And I’m glad I didn’t help that animal get the business deal. It’s not worth it at all!”
Kyla hesitated and said, “You can leave him and live a good life on your own. Take me, for instance. I ran a small noodle shop and set up a food stall when I got out of prison. I’m happy with running a store like this now. At least I have a peaceful life.”
Jacqueline Bowman said, “Yes, I think so too. I’ve also moved out of Neal Reid’s house and am renting a house to stay in while I think about my future. Kyla, I don’t have many friends. I’ll visit you more often, so please don’t find me annoying.”
Kyla pressed her lips together but nodded at Jacqueline Bowman’s pitiful and expectant eyes.
After all, she had helped her in prison.
Jacqueline Bowman instantly smiled.
In the next few days, Jacqueline Bowman would visit Kyla and talk to Mrs. Corbyn.
Yan Qiongyin said, “By the way, Kyla, I want to go to the temple in a couple of days to pray. Why don’t you go with me? Besides, you’re pregnant now. You can pray for the deity to bless you with a smooth and safe delivery. I heard the deity of that temple has many worshippers.”
“But I don’t believe in these things,” said Kyla. She trusted the doctors in the hospital more.
“It’s better to believe in them. Besides, praying won’t cause you any harm! I’ll drive straight to the parking lot in front of the temple. You won’t have to walk much, so you won’t get tired.” Jacqueline Bowman continued persuading her.
Mrs. Corbyn also added, “Just go and pray. There’s no harm in seeking peace of mind.”
Elderly like Mrs. Corbyn believed in gods.
Kyla stopped rejecting and agreed to go to the temple with Jacqueline Bowman to pray.
“That’s settled, then. I’ll pick you up in a couple of days!” said Jacqueline Bowman. Then, she left the store and went back to her car.
