The Villain’s Wife 514 Test Ki
"I believe we need to discuss this further with the shareholders," Thomas said when he realized that they were not getting anywhere with their discussion. After all, Lily’s greedy nature was something incomprehensible to him. True, he knew that this was business after all and businessmen like Lily existed in every part of the world. However, her decision to do this while also ’helping’ him at the same time didn’t really sit well with him.
He stared as Lily rose from her seat with a slight smile on her lips.
"Since that is the case... then... we won’t stay for long," Lily added. She then left with Zhou Jingren without giving them another glance.
"How hateful," Adrian said. Until now, he could still feel the sting from Lily’s slap. The fact that he couldn’t really touch Lily was infuriating him. "What are we going to do now?" he asked as he eyed Ron and Thomas’ dark face.
"We can force her to sell it to us," Ron immediately suggested. "She won’t have a choice." He shifted his gaze toward Thomas. "Call an emergency board meeting tomorrow. Its us against her. This time... we will win."

After Lily and Zhou Jingren left the Lee Residence, they immediately went back to their hotel to rest.
"Are you sure you’re alright?" Zhou Jingren touched Lily’s forehead. "You look pale."
"I’m tired," Lily answered as she snuggled on his chest. "This constant flying is tiring me out," She answered before closing her eyes, masking the suspicions that she felt inside. "You can go ahead and transfer the shares under my name. I will sleep for a while before dinner."
"Hmmm. Jichen is already working on it." Zhou Jingren kissed Lily’s forehead. "I will call for some room service. Don’t sleep yet... let’s have dinner first." He leaned in to give her a light kiss on the lips. "I will also call Jichen."
Lily nodded. "I will go take a cold shower and order more cheese," she said before going to the bathroom.
After thirty minutes, Lily stared at her reflection in the mirror. Lily always hated drying her hair. However, for some reason, she felt that she needed to do so before leaving the bathroom. She sighed as she eyed the two boxes of pregnancy test kits in front of her.
For a few days now, Lily had been suspecting that she was pregnant. The changes in her body were just too obvious to not notice. She seemed to love eating and sleeping more and more these days. She held her robe as she bit her lips. Another sigh escaped her mouth. For some reason, taking the test scared her. Was it because she was too cowardly to face the results? Maybe.
What if she wasn’t pregnant? What if she was only giving herself false hope? This was the reason why Lily refused to tell Zhou Jingren about this matter. She was afraid to disappoint him and most of all, she was afraid to disappoint herself.
She stared at her reflection, trying to compose herself. This was only normal, right? The feelings of fear and excitement? Anxiety and nervousness mixed with the fear of disappointing oneself should be normal for a woman like her, right? She furrowed her brows.
Lily had been denying it for a few weeks now, but she knew that killing Jack had an immense effect on her mental health. She wasn’t regretful in any way and she would never regret her actions. However, just like what Zhou Jingren told her before, killing someone would haunt her.
It was the constant questions in her head, the what if’s. Lily wished that she could stop thinking about the matter. She wished she could just pretend that it didn’t matter, but she couldn’t. Her mind had been programmed to over think, over analyze things. She had been accustomed to thinking about all the what if’s and all the possible effects of every action.
The only thing that Lily wondered was how damaged had she been because of what she did. Was it possible that she was only imagining the things that she felt because she wanted to stop thinking about that matter? Was it possible that this was her own mind’s way to divert her attention? Was this even normal?
What if she was going crazy?
Her hands squeezed into a fist as determination flashed within her eyes. If she kept on doubting and letting her fears win, she would never know the truth. Without any hesitation, Lily ripped open the boxes and read the instructions carefully before she performed the test.
She then closed her eyes, trying to suppress the sudden surge of emotion inside her. She could feel butterflies running around her stomach as sweat trickled down her forehead. She opened her eyes and looked at her face from the mirror. She had gotten even paler.
Lily was not able to stop herself from chuckling. She remembered how even being kidnapped didn’t give her these kinds of emotions. To be honest, this was the first time that Lily felt so many various emotions within the span of two minutes. After what seemed like forever talking herself out of her nervousness, Lily finally had the courage to look down and stare at the result.
She then furrowed her brows. The first kit had a clear straight line that told her she wasn’t pregnant. She held it closer to her face as she narrowed her eyes at the faint horizontal line. It was so faint that she really wasn’t sure if it even existed. Was she hallucinating? Was it because she had kept this test kit in her bag for a few days now?
She decided to check the second test kit and this time the horizontal line was clearer than the vertical one. Lily frowned. The results only made her more nervous and anxious. It wasn’t really clear if she was pregnant or not and this seemed to make her more distressed than before.
The worst thing was, she could not tell her husband about it as she knew he would overreact and would summon a few doctors to test her. Moreover, she would not want to make him excited only to disappoint him if she was not really pregnant.
