Filed To Story: Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband Book (Cora & Byron)
Cora felt like her heart was about to stop at that moment.
Fortunately, when Byron came to her, he didn’t talk about the meeting materials but asked her,
“What do you want to eat at noon? I’ll take you out to eat.”
“No,”
Cora said.
She had a poor appetite for the past few days, and occasionally she would retch.
She thought it was because she worried too much in her heart.
Byron said,
“Let’s go eat your favorite pizza.”
He didn’t want Cora to eat too much unhealthy food, but seeing her bad appetite recently, he reluctantly decided to let her eat something she liked.
Hearing Byron’s words, Cora didn’t refuse.
During this meal, she only ate two slices of pizza because she felt that they had a strange taste.
However, the next day, when she went to work, the sandwich Sally gave her also had the same smell that made her sick.
After eating it, Cora ran into the bathroom.
“Cora, what’s wrong with you?”
Sally asked.
She was very anxious. Cora finally returned to work with her, but she went to the bathroom after eating a sandwich.
Cora said,
“I’m fine. There seems to be a strange smell in your sandwich.”
“A strange smell?”
Sally was confused, and she picked up the sandwich and sniffed it again and again.
She said,
“I bought the ingredient early in the morning, and the recipe is the same as before.”
Sally paused and suddenly thought of something. Grasping Cora’s hand, she said with excitement,
“Cora, are you pregnant?”
“Pregnant?”
Cora asked.
She was dazed for a while before coming back to her senses.
“No way!”
She said.
It was only this month that she and Byron had sex.
Although they hadn’t done contraception recently, she wouldn’t be pregnant so soon, right?
Looking at Cora’s expression, Sally knew that she was also suspicious, so she suggested,
“Let’s buy a test stick after getting off work.”
Cora nodded. She couldn’t wait to know if she was pregnant.
If she was not pregnant, it was fine.
But if she was, what should she do?
Because she was hesitating whether she should break up with Byron if she was pregnant, she was in a trance state this day.
In the evening, she had a faint abdominal pain and hurried to the bathroom, only to find blood on her underwear.
She was in her period.
Therefore, she was not pregnant.
While she breathed a sigh of relief, she felt disappointed.
Since she wasn’t pregnant, she had no reason to continue to stay with Byron.
Fearing that she would hesitate again, she sent the photo of the document of the Phoenix Project that she took yesterday to Gabe after coming out of the bathroom.
Receiving those photos, Gabe was shocked and called Cora.
He asked,
“Cora, how did you get this?”
Cora said,
“A friend of mine works in Sunda Group’s branch in New York, and I asked for her help.”
Cora paused and asked,
“Gabe, are these materials useful?”
Gabe said,
“Yes. But as I told you last time, with the current situation of our group, it is impossible to do it alone.”
In other words, if they wanted to fight against Byron, they must find a company that they knew well and that shared the same goals with them.
There was an answer in Cora’s heart.
She said,
“Gabe, I know a company, and they will cooperate with us…”
When the phone call with Gabe ended, Cora was in a daze.
She never thought that she and Byron would turn against each other.
When she was in a daze, Sally was carrying her bag and pulling her hand to go out.
Sally said,
“Why are you still here? We have to buy a pregnancy test stick.”
When Sally thought that Cora was going to be a mother, she was very excited this afternoon and even went to the pediatrician’s side to help. She said she wanted to practice so that she would know how to take care of the child in the future.
Cora said,
“Sally, no need. I’m in my period.”
“What?”
Sally was surprised.
She suddenly felt disappointed.
Hearing Cora’s weak voice, she knew that Cora must feel sad.
She quickly comforted her,
“It’s okay. You and Byron have just got married, and there will be many chances in the future. Don’t worry…”
She hoped to mobilize Cora’s emotions and cheer her up.
When Cora heard Sally’s words, she thought about sending the contents of the Phoenix Project to
Gabe, and she smiled bitterly.
“There will be no chance anymore.”
Byron was such a proud person, and he defended Cora in front of his subordinates so much. If he knew that Cora had destroyed the project they had worked hard for a long time, he would never forgive her.
At that time, he would divorce her.
That was fine. Cora wanted to sever her relationship with Byron now.
Without children, they would have no burden.
Everything was as she wished.
However, why would she feel so sad?
In a caf?, William looked at Cora with complicated eyes.
He asked,
“Aren’t you with Byron? Why do you do this?”
William didn’t know how to describe his feelings when he learned that Cora wanted to cooperate with him and take away the Phoenix Project from Byron.
He said,
“If you tell Byron that your family wants this project, I believe he will give it up.”
Besides, he thought that with Byron’s love for Cora, he would even send his team to help the Lane family return to its peak.
Obviously, Cora didn’t want to tell him the truth. She just sneered and said,
“You don’t have to worry about these things. Tell me, do you want this project? Do you want to help the Yoris family get back into the circle of the four major families in New York again?”
“Yes.”
William did not hesitate long.
The successive scandals caused by his wife and daughter caused the Yoris family to be kicked out of the four major families.
But even so, the Hansen family still did not let them go but continued to suppress them.
If Harry hadn’t tried to help them, the Yoris family would be worse than it was now.
William felt very guilty.
