Chapter 155 Bad Temper During Pregnancy
Maggie's remark instantly cast a strange silence over the dining table.
Fortunately, within just a few seconds, Nathael regained his composure, his expression returning to
normal.
However, Beth was not as composed. The muscles on her face visibly tensed, and her gaze shifted back and forth between Maggie's face and her abdomen as she struggled to maintain her composure. "What.... do you mean by that?"
Maggie's expression remained gentle, with a hint of surprise in her tone. "Don't you know? During pregnancy, one should avoid consuming anything containing alcohol, and it seems that even salmon, which is raw and cold, is also not suitable."
With a halfway pause, Maggie suddenly seemed to realise something, adopting a look of enlightenment. "Right, you don't even have a boyfriend, so how could you understand these things? My apologies for my oversight.
At that moment, Beth's mind went blank, filled only with the two words "pregnant" spoken by Maggie.
Is... is she pregnant?
It's Nathael's child!
This is impossible! It's absurd!
Beth's eyes welled up with tears. She instinctively asked, "Whose child is it?"
Maggie found her question somewhat absurd, but she could also understand Beth's desire to delude herself.
Without waiting for her to speak, Nathael's voice was already deep as he said, "Mine."
Upon hearing this, Maggie's eyes curled into a smile filled with indescribable sweetness and happiness.
She looked at Beth with sincere eyes. "I know you're Nathael's good friend. Won't you wish us well?"
000 000
As the saying goes, fight fire with fire!
Looking at Beth's face, uglier than when she was crying, Maggie knew she had
won.
"When did this happen?" Beth's voice was also hoarse. She was unable to restrain herself from placing her hands under the dining table, as they had been trembling incessantly.
How can she be pregnant with his child?
How can he allow such a thing to happen?
Did she threaten him with the child? Or did she use some other means?
I liked him for so long, and he has never been this good to me. But why Maggie?
Just thinking about these things made Beth feel insane, filled with rage and frustration, overwhelmed by

Faced with her predatory gaze, Maggie lightly touched her stomach and sighed. "I don't know when it happened, either."
"Perhaps it was on his couch last time? Or maybe in the study... Hmm, or at my apartment, it could have been that time in the bathroom too. It's hard to say for sure about these things.
Maggie seemed determined to push her arrogance and spitefulness to the limit, making Beth furious.
If Beth wasn't happy, then she would be happy!
Upon hearing this, Nathael couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at her. His narrow eyes were deep and mysterious, carrying some obscure and unclear meaning, like a deep sea.
Maggie felt that the gaze was inexplicably intriguing, subconsciously avoiding his eyes, and couldn't help but rub her nose tip, feeling inexplicably guilty.
What's wrong?
Why was he staring at me like this?
He looked as if he could devour me.
Beth didn't notice the ambiguous atmosphere between them. Her mind was filled with what Maggie had just said.
They, they...
Maggie spoke tenderly, "Ms. Bray?"
"Oh!" Beth snapped out of her daze, only to realize that one of her nails was
broken off.
She forced a smile. Her eyes tinged with crimson. "Congratulations.
Maggie curled her red lips, not letting on.
Beth said "congratulations" instead of congratulations to both of you."
She still hadn't intended to let go. But what did it matter? As long as she wasn't happy now, Maggie felt she hadn't lost out.
Maggie sighed softly, adopting the appearance of someone experienced, and
earnestly advised, "Ms. Bray, you still don't have a boyfriend, right? But you should start planning. You're not much younger than Nathael, and look, he has a
child now."
"And to be frank, women's youth is so short, even shorter than men's. Some
things naturally need to be done sooner rather than later.
"I've also read online that giving birth earlier helps with faster physical recovery
and reduces worries about appearance and figure."
"I know you come from a prestigious family with high standards, but people like Nathael aren't easy to come by. Ms. Bray, you shouldn't be too picky."
Maggie put on that annoying topic that families discuss during holidays and relatives wedding pressures," which made Beth's face turn furious.

I've been chatting with you for so long, and we can consider ourselves friends. Don't blame me for being straightforward, but I know you like the type of Nathael. To say something you might not want to hear, he prefers someone like me. As for
you....
Maggie said, giving Feng Jingyi a condescending look, then shook her head solemnly. "They don't like it."
In the next instant, there was a sharp sound as the chair scraped against the floor, and Beth stood up directly, looking at Maggie with cold eyes. "Maggie, what
do you mean by that?"
Beth had never seen anyone as detestable as Maggie. She found her appearance, speech, and behaviour. detestable in every way!
She suddenly turned hostile, and Maggie's expression turned cold as well. She smirked and said, "If you don't like it, you can leave."
There's no need to indulge her bad habits, right?
Whether she's some high-born lady or a princess, I've never been afraid of her.
Beth had probably never experienced such injustice before. She instinctively looked towards Nathael beside her, her eyes reddening. "Nathael...

Nathael glanced at her and said in a deep voice, "During pregnancy, temperaments can be irritable. Please forgive her, Ms. Bray,"
Maggie was stunned.
Is he still pretending?
Alright, I'm quite addicted to it too!
Beth was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes. She grabbed her things and
turned to run away.

She had the instinct to run, so she/immediately got up and said, "I'm not hungry
anymore. I'm going to the bathroom."

He murmured in her ear in a low, husky voice, "When do you plan to give me a
child, huh?"
Listening to his words, Maggie felt her head buzzing and her eyes filled with
astonishment.
In the cramped space, the air was warm and the posture was ambiguous.
Maggie felt like she had just gotten into big trouble!
