Wife You Discarded is a Billionaire's Crush novel Chapter 176

Because Cedric's mother was a powerful career woman, he imagined Liliana marrying into the family and holding up her own end.

Then, the Preston Family would have it made!

But Liliana didn't obey, so on what grounds should he pay her tuition?

"I'll take care of Hale. As for the rest, you're on your own," Liliana said coldly.

"Liliana!" Vida grabbed the phone back, sounding frantic. "We're doing this for your own good! If you keep being so disobedient, you'll regret it when Cedric finally leaves you!"

Liliana gripped her phone tightly. "I'll fend for myself, too. You don't need to worry about me."

With that, she hung up.

The phone, still on speaker, emitted a continuous busy signal.

Consumed by rage, Chuck threw the phone against the wall.

"Darling, don't be angry. She's probably having a tough time too. With Cedric wanting to divorce her, it must be hard to get money. Don't worry, I've already swapped the medicine. Once she gets pregnant, everything will be fine!"

Vida raised her hand and repeatedly smoothed Chuck's chest.

"Wait? Wait until when?" Chuck shoved her away. "This is the fine daughter you raised!"

"Darling, please don't be angry. If you get sick from anger, I won't know what to do. In another month at most, Liliana will be pregnant!"

They had swapped the medicine over a week ago. Even if she wasn't ovulating right now, within another month, she was bound to conceive!

—

Liliana turned off her phone and placed it on the dining table.

The dark screen clearly reflected the sharp features of a man.

She spun around instinctively.

Cedric had just showered, and his short hair was still dripping.

Water dripped onto his black satin pajamas, which clung to his muscular chest.

*You're on your own.* It wasn't a very flattering phrase to describe her current situation.

"I had no idea you felt so wronged being with me."
