Chapter 3

After I left the hospital, I went straight to the main office of the Pearson family business, now handled by the Wilkinson family.

Since my parents died, the Pearson family had kept its business barely going.

The size wasn’t like before, but a few key parts were still kept.

I stayed in the meeting room, laying out every document one by one.

All the help the Wilkinson family gave over the years, I listed each part clearly, getting ready to give everything back.

And the assets of the Pearson family, I would take them back fully.

Not just for me, but also for my child.

Even if leaving the Wilkinson family, she still must grow up well and properly.

After the secretary completed signing the final document, she asked quietly, “President Pearson, either the film and television department or the advertising department must give up to settle this, which one do you plan to keep?”

I didn’t reply right away, but chose to go see the recording studio first.

That place was the main center of the film and television department, and it was also the place I knew best.

My dream before was to become a host.

But after I married into the Wilkinson family, their rule said Mrs. Wilkinson couldn’t appear in public.

It was Adrian who told me I could create a recording studio that belonged to me, make podcasts, and show my ability without showing my face.

So during those years, I quietly made podcasts, slowly bringing the film and television department and my show to the front of the industry.

Each wall there, every light, had been arranged by Adrian and me together.

It was also the place where we spent time together and stayed for a long period.

He was my first viewer, first listener, and also my first supporter.

“President Pearson, wait a second.”

While I was thinking about the past, someone suddenly stopped me.

The recording studio felt cold. Adrian stood in the middle, his face serious and striking.

And across from him, Amira moved in a soft dance.

He looked at her, like he was looking at his goddess.

After I found out I had arrived, Adrian had someone send me a message, saying he wanted to use the recording studio for a while.

“President Wilkinson said don’t get upset, he said he’s shooting a show and needs this place.”

The warmth in my chest from earlier thoughts quickly turned cold.

Adrian really knew how to pick, taking the recording studio we worked hardest on as a place for his lover.

I pulled back my eyes and faced the secretary.

“Keep the film and television department.”

If the film and television department stayed with Adrian, sooner or later it would turn into a step for Amira in his hands!

I wouldn’t let him ruin this place for another woman.

Over the next two days, I almost didn’t pay any attention to Adrian anymore.

The baby couldn’t be left alone, so I looked after her while dealing with papers.

But Adrian was still all over the place.

The trending searches were full of him and Amira.

The heat of the dating show kept going up.

The newest part was the last part where they shared feelings on the show.

Adrian reserved a whole sea area, fireworks went up from the water, one after another, lasting three full hours.

They kissed under the fireworks, and people online said it looked like the main couple in a story.

People outside were guessing if Amira would be the next Mrs. Wilkinson; people around were guessing how many days I’d last before I lost control.

But no one knew the spot of Mrs. Wilkinson. I didn’t want it anymore for a long time.

On my birthday, I dressed myself up with care.

At today’s banquet, besides marking my birthday, I also wanted to reach new partners and work with the Pearson family, so I didn’t focus on enjoyment.

During the first part of the banquet, Adrian didn’t show up, and I wasn’t surprised at all.

In the middle, I passed the baby to the nanny and turned to walk to the restroom.

But when I returned, I saw that Amira and Adrian had come to the banquet.

And in Amira’s arms was my baby!

She bent her head and played with the baby, her long nails pressing the baby’s face again and again.

She held the baby not firmly, like she was playing with a fun toy.

My head rang.

Without thinking, I ran over.

“Move back, who let you touch her!”

I pulled the baby back in one move.

The baby got hurt by Amira’s nails and started crying right away.

On her arm, there was a light blood line left by the nails!

I held back my anger and let the nanny take the baby to calm her.

After the baby went away, my chest moved up and down fast, staring at Adrian, my voice almost yelling,

“Adrian, didn’t I tell you, those dirty things outside, don’t bring them in front of the baby!”

Amira was pulled by me and lost her balance, then fell straight to the floor.

“Sister-in-law, I only felt the baby was lovely and wanted to carry her, why shove me?”

“Today is your birthday, I came just to celebrate with you…”

Adrian’s face turned dark. He quickly walked over and helped her stand. “Does it hurt?”

After making sure she was alright, he lifted his head and looked at me.

Adrian’s eyes looked very heavy and scary.

“Eloise, Amira only wanted to get near the baby. Did you have to hurt her?”

When he said that, he didn’t even glance at the baby.

He only moved to protect Amira.

“I thought these past two days you really started to act better, didn’t expect you’re still like this.”

“Today is your birthday. Amira prepared a dance for you, wanting to make you happy.”

“But in the end, you won’t even let her stay here.”

“When did you turn so selfish?”
