In the elegantly decorated bedroom, Hester lay sideways on the chair, looking helplessly at the
pregnant woman in front of her and sighing.
"Sara, you are pregnant now. In order to give birth to the baby smoothly, shouldn't you go out for a
walk?"
Caressing her bulging belly expressionlessly, Sara glanced at Hester coldly, unmoved.
Impossible! When Austin send Hester to her home, she was almost scared to death. When something
like that happened, Hester was still able to make fun of her, which made her very worried.
"The doctor said that I need to have a good rest recently. Anyway, what I'm doing now is just what Allen
wants. He naturally wants it!
And I just feel pity for him because he works so hard to support our family every day, but he is still
distracted to stare at me all the time."
Hester rolled her eyes at Sara, who was saying something cool, and the corners of her mouth slightly
moved. She lay on the chair dejectedly, and she really wanted to cry out to vent her emotion.
It was clearly a disguised prison. As a well-known lawyer, she would not let him do anything he wanted
to do.
"I object! As a woman in the new era, you must have your own independent consciousness. You can't
be an accessory to men, nor can you let them look down upon you at will!"
Hester nodded firmly at Sara.
"So, Sara, you can't be one of them!"
"Done?"
Sara shrugged indifferently and ate the cut fruit lazily, frowning.
"Why isn't this lemon sour enough?"
Hearing this, Hester lowered her head dejectedly and gave up struggling completely. It had been three
days! Every day before Austin went to work, he would send her to Sara's house and pick her up after
work.
Staying here and not going out, she almost forgot the temperature of the sun.
Sara leaned against the side, casually grabbing the fruit on the plate, and glanced at Hester.
She drew circles with her fingertips, feeling unprecedentedly satisfied.
She didn't have many friends since she was a child, so she cherished every relationship. If Allen hadn't
taken her back three years ago, she would have cried to death in front of Hester's tomb!
"Hester, if you really feel bored, tell me what happened in the past three years! You have been busy
with your work before, and you haven't told me about it!"
A hint of darkness flashed in her eyes, and Hester's face gradually became dignified. She raised her
hand to support her chin and looked out of the window at the garden, lost in thought.
"In fact, nothing interesting happened. At that time, I was busy with my study, and I was busy studying
in the school library every day. I thought I had a full life!"
Sara carefully observed the expression on Hester's face, feeling a little heavy in her heart. Even if she
said it lightly, it was hard to let it go no matter what happened to her.
"Why do you want to be a lawyer? I remember that you were interested in writing before. Why do you
suddenly want to take the path of law?"
"In fact, I didn't think too much at that time. I just wanted to enrich myself and make myself busy. I didn't
have so much free time to think too much.
And the career of a lawyer requires all your efforts to the lawsuit. Naturally, it has become the most
favorite one of my many choices."
Tears welled up in Sara's eyes. She was sad to hear that. If she had been with her at that time, she
would have burst into tears!
Sara held her in her arms and patted her on the back gently.
"Don't worry. It's all over, Hester. You have me and Austin now. You are not alone!"
With a helpless sigh, Hester lowered her head and took a deep breath. Her eyes were blurred.
But she had never felt that she had suffered so much.
On the contrary, she felt herself lucky. She met Austin, who cared about her so much, and this good
friend who never gave up on her. It seemed that this was just a complete life of her.
"Sara, don't worry! I have completely come out of that shadow, and I will never be easily affected by it
again. We have been together for a long time, but you should know my temperament.
I've never been such a coward and incompetent person. How can such a small thing trap me?"
Hester could say that indifferently, but she couldn't lie to herself. If she still had resentment in her heart,
she only hated Melody, the murderer of her own child.
As for Terence, she had loved him but never regretted. But if it weren't for Austin's sudden departure,
the newly sprouted love bud wouldn't have died in the halfway, right?
When Austin came to pick up Hester, he saw two women hugging and sitting. A trace of warmth
flashed across his gentle face. He quietly closed the door and retreated to the door.
"Why don't you go upstairs?"
Allen threw his handbag on the sofa casually and frowned in confusion. He rolled up his sleeves and
glanced at the quiet upstairs.
"But it's strange today. I didn't hear Hester complain."
Nodding slightly, Austin smiled dotingly. His slender fingers gently rubbed his chin, and his eyes were
shining with stars.
"Maybe they have talked about something more deeply. Now they are all in a trance to calm down!"
Allen glanced at Austin in surprise and he shook his head. Normally, Austin would be heartbroken if
Hester frowned. Why was he so indifferent today?
"You seem to be in a good mood recently?"
"No!"
Austin denied with certainty. He raised three fingers and shook them slightly.
"It should be three days!"
Allen was speechless. He just felt that the word love was really a very wonderful thing, which could
make people become like this.
But when she thought of the way he got along with Sara, he felt that it was reasonable.
"Are you showing off?"
Austin smiled gently, and his gentle face was as warm and comfortable as a spring breeze. He raised
his hand and gently put it against the position between his eyebrows, which was undeniable.
"It's tough for me and her to get what we are today!"
