Everything that Lola mentioned were noted and reported to Harry in time.
To which, Harry simply said, "From now on, just report directly to Joey. The rest of the profits would still
be counted to the account of Miss Li's."
As soon as he ended the call, Harry realized something and quickly dialed Joey's number.
Lola had been studying the sales reports for more than two hours when she finally felt tired and
decided to call it a day. She pressed on her temple to relieve the headache as she put away the
documents. Then she took off for the Li family's villa.
In the living room, Lillian and Wendy were having fun with the baby. They were putting on their funny
faces to make the baby laugh. Upon seeing Lola, they were both delighted.
"Oh, you just finished work in the shop? How is everything now?" Wendy slowly walked up towards
Lola as she hadn't fully recovered from her child birth.
She heard that Lola had been in Crown Province, but she was not sure what had happened between
her and Thomas Herren. If something good happened, Thomas would have been with her right now...
Lola sadly shook her head and just answered, "Never mind. Thanks to Harry the jerk, so far I got
nothing done."
If Harry had not been a jerk, Thomas would have met all her relatives already and discussed about
their wedding.
When she heard this, Lillian immediately stopped eating her grapes. She was alarmed and concerned.
She approached Lola while resting her hands on her baby lump.
"What happened? Tell me about it."
Lola had to explain the whole incident with them since they were both so interested and worried.
When Lola finished telling them everything, Lillian became so infuriated. "I have told Harry before that
he would definitely regret if he dares to treat you like that again!" He never listened to her. Now, he will
be getting a dose of his own medicine! He hurt Lola so bad. She wanted to burn all the bridges
between them.
Watching the baby in the cradle kicking his chubby legs, Lola really enjoyed family time. Wendy
encouraged her and said to her in a soft voice, "I don't know what to say. It's so hard to tell. Let nature
take its course. However, if you have made up your mind to break up with him for good, you must be
strong and you should never give in."
Lola nodded. In fact, she was afraid of herself being too weak. That man was way too wicked and
cunning for her to handle. He knew her every weakness.
"Cute baby, call me auntie soon. Okay?" Lola was having a good time playing with the baby in her
arms. She did not want to bother herself with troubles.
Wendy laughed out hard. "Come on, he is still so young and small. How could he open mouth and say
anything? He is not some kind of a genius baby!"
Lola giggled as she stared at Lillian's baby bump. "When is your due date?" Joseph was always
busying flying from one country to another. He was seldom seen at home.
Lillian replied with a happy and excited smile, "In two months' time!"
"Joseph is so inconsiderate! As soon as he comes back home, I will tell scold him on behalf of you.
Poor you, you can only see him on the screen whenever you miss him. Did he even call you that
frequently?" Lola was not very pleased at the way her brother treated his pregnant wife. He should be
more hands-on.
Lillian's face blushed as she smiled. "We call each other every day!"
Joseph had informed her that within one month, he would finish the shooting of both movies. Then he
promised her a long vocation for her and the baby.
Lola felt happy for them. She sweetly looked at her nephew and asked her sister-in-law, "So, what are
you going to name the child?"
Wendy peeled a lychee for Lola to eat as she joyfully replied, "We have agreed to name the child Colin
Li."
Lola instantly loved the name as she chewed on the juicy fruit. She nodded in satisfaction. Then she
wondered what would she name her second child?
Gosh, what was she thinking? She's not even pregnant...
Lola spit the fruit pit out into the bin.
She remembered that she and Harry never had any contraceptive measures. They never used one.
What didn't she get pregnant? Was there anything wrong with her?
She was not very keen on the idea of a second child. However, with all these unprotected sex that she
had, she still seemed not pregnant. Lola was concerned about herself.
Wendy stared at Lola's face for a while and asked her, "Lola, are you feeling okay? You suddenly
looked worried."
"Nothing!" Lola woke up from her wild thoughts and quickly turned to her nephew to hide her
embarrassment.
Lillian also noticed the suspicious blush on Lola's face. With a grin, she asked: "Are you thinking of
some hot dude?"
"Nonsense. I am not thinking of anyone!" To prove her point, she quickly added, "If Harry ever harasses
me, I will go the mountains and live there as a nun all by myself!"
Her face looked very serious. Wendy remembered the horrific incident last time, so she stopped
teasing Lola anymore.
With a firm tone, she said to Lola, "Lola, you need to let things go. He had hurt you over and over. He
has violated and traumatized you. You should not waste your time or feelings on him anymore. Think
about your grandpa and your parents. He is not worth your love!"
"I know. I won't do anything stupid anymore. I will not hurt myself or my family because of him. From
now on, I will avoid him as much as possible." Her attention should be focused on Thomas Herren.
Just then, the baby started crying. Lola lifted him up and patted him gently on the back.
Colin Li sure took after his mother Wendy. They had the same lovely eyes. Lola missed her daughter
very much. She wondered when would be the next time they meet up again...
The baby started crying. He was hungry. Lola handed him over to Wendy. As soon as the baby was
fed, he stopped crying.
Lillian watched the mother and the son and sincerely praised Wendy. "Sister-in-law, you are really good
at this. You don't even need a nanny's help." Angie had arranged a nanny for the young couple, but
Wendy politely declined. She believed that nursing the child on her own was the best option.
"I don't need any nanny. We are a big family and I am a housewife. I have plenty of time to deal with
the baby!" Her husband Jordan and parents-in-law were all very helpful. They spent their time and
effort on looking after the newborn with her. She did not feel tired at all.
Lola grinned. "Wendy is really capable. I know her for a long time. She has always been this
considerate and capable." She remembered when Wendy worked at the shopping mall. It was not an
easy job. She had to wear thick mascot costumes during the summer to hand out leaflets in the street.
But Wendy never complained.
Lillian nodded in agreement. She also observed Wendy's hardworking attitude. For the past several
months of living together under the same roof, she got to know her even better.
The three women sat in the sofa, chatting with each other in high and cheerful spirits. For the first time
in a long while, Lola finally felt relaxed. Maybe the apology from Harry worked.
Lillian was really bored at home. She actually came up with a bold decision without informing Joseph.
She secretly bought a flight ticket to C Country.
She arrived in C Country in the late afternoon. She learned from Joseph that he was still in the process
of making a movie. However, there would be a banquet for the crew later that night.
She went to his apartment directly as she decided to give him a big surprise.
She first cleaned up his apartment. Then she sat down and watched random TV shows to pass the
time. It was already ten o'clock, but Joseph was still not back yet.
Lillian eventually felt sleepy. Her pregnancy had caused her to be dizzy all the time.
It was well past eleven when Lillian was woken up by the sound of turning of the knob of the door. She
felt excited as she pictured out his surprised, happy look.
She was very proud of her big surprise for him and she really hoped he would like it!
However, she heard him talking to someone else by the door!
Lillian quickly got out of the bed. Putting on her slippers in a hurry, she rushed towards the door.
Outside the door stood her husband Joseph. To her shock, he was accompanied by a drunk woman.
She was in his arms and he looked absolutely irritated. As he promised the movie director, Joseph had
no choice but to look after the young actress. If he had a choice, he would dump her by the road a long
time ago.
"The young actress was quite good-looking. But that was because of tons of plastic surgery. Not like
Lillian, a natural beauty..." Joseph thought to himself.
Just then, the woman in his chest suddenly raised her arms and draped them around his neck. Now, it
seemed she was embracing him in a very intimate way.
