Washing vegetables, cutting meat, chopping bones, Lucy had long been proficient in these kitchen tasks.
In the past, every time she did these tasks, her heart was filled with love and anticipation.
She could spend an entire afternoon guarding the kitchen to make chicken porridge, and she could personally dig out the innards that she found unbearable to make crucian carp soup... just to let William taste and feel her efforts.
This time, for some reason, she finally couldnt bear it.
When dealing with the fishy smell, she couldnt control her nausea, retching, and vomiting.
The dry retching was so severe that even William and Sophie, who were sitting in the living room, heard the sound.
"William, is Lucy not feeling well? Otherwise, dont let her cook!" Sophie worriedly said, with a hypocritical expression.
Williams originally calm face turned cold the moment he heard Lucys name: "Dont worry about her, this woman is so scheming and best at pretending. Who knows what tricks she is playing!"
"William, Lucy may not be doing it on purpose..."
"Naturally, she is not doing it on purpose, she is doing it on purpose!" William said angrily, seemingly afraid that Lucy in the kitchen couldnt hear, deliberately raising her voice, "She must see you coming back and want to make some trouble to blackmail people again! Otherwise, she wouldnt be uncomfortable early or late, but just now, who is she deceiving!"
Lucy in the kitchen was leaning against the sink, covering her chest with one hand and her mouth with the other, her eyes were red, trying her best to suppress the nauseous feeling.
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldnt suppress it, she continued to retch. Just like she could never win Williams heart, William still hated her to the extreme.
Those harsh words came in, and Lucys heart was trembling, a drop of hot tears fell, finally falling into the sink, blending with the water in the sink, and disappearing in an instant.
She really couldnt stand the fishy smell, and in the end, Lucy could only throw all these into the trash can, according to her mood, and planned to make two light dishes casually.
But the retching continued!
Lucy suddenly had a certain guess, and one hand involuntarily touched her abdomen.
"Are you pregnant?" A soft female voice suddenly sounded in her ear, scaring Lucy almost jumping up.
She turned her head palely and saw that Sophie was looking at her with a sarcastic smile on the corner of her mouth. At this moment, seeing her looking over, her gaze deliberately fell on her stomach.
"I have a stomachache and Im not feeling well!" Lucy tried to look indifferent, but her pale face still accidentally revealed the emotions she wanted to hide.
For some reason, she was very afraid that Sophie would think so. If she really had a baby... Lucy couldnt imagine what the results would be if they knew.
"Why did you suddenly come back? Arent you staying abroad well?" She could only try to divert the topic.
Unfortunately, her state still made Sophie sure of her guess.
"If I dont come back, will you decide to continue to occupy William and never let go?" Sophie said lightly.
Lucy suddenly widened her eyes, looking at Sophie in disbelief. Was she declaring war on herself?
But what Sophie wanted to do was more than that. Her gaze fell on Lucys stomach again, still speaking lightly: "Do you think if William knows youre pregnant, can this child still be saved?"
