Chapter 1125: She’s Carrying Lu Nanze’s Child (1)

“What’s Second Brother busy with? Even if he’s busy, he wouldn’t ignore me.”

Qiao Yiyi was insistent.

The housekeeper couldn’t keep it any longer and sighed, saying, “Mr. Lu has really been very busy lately. He’s at the casters’ office every day. I heard that even when they need his signature for anything, they have to look for him at the casters’ office! Also, he has to think of a new strategy every day just to have lunch with this particular female caster. Everyone is saying that Mr. Lu is interested in her.”

At these words, Qiao Yiyi’s expression changed drastically. “What did you say?”

The housekeeper shot her a look. She had had enough of Qiao Yiyi’s usual display of shameless arrogance and said, “I said Mr. Lu is flirting with a girl in the office. That girl has the same surname as you, Qiao. Everyone calls her Ms. Qiao.”

Ms. Qiao.

Qiao Yiyi widened her eyes in horror. b.u.mping into the table behind her as she retreated in disbelief, she said, “Her? It’s her! I’m sure it’s her.”

She understood Second Brother only too well.

He was trying to get her to fall in love with him before she regained her memory.

Hence now, the two of them must be inseparable for sure, relis.h.i.+ng each other’s company every day.

But if the two of them were together, then what about her?

She had waited for Second Brother for eight years. Was she just going to be tossed aside like this?

She bit her lip and clenched her fists tightly. “No way, hand me the cell phone. I want to call Second Brother!”

At these words, Qiao Yiyi lurched forward and tried taking the cell phone from her hands.

The housekeeper took a step back and said, “Ms. Qiao, don’t fool around now. Mr. Lu has said that we are not to interrupt him for no reason.”

“Who says it’s for no reason? It’s important! I want to talk to Second Brother!”

Qiao Yiyi was shouting now, “Give me back my cell phone!”

The housekeeper looked at her with great loathing and said, “Ms. Qiao, you should finish your lunch quickly.”

As though she was avoiding some plague, she quickly retreated and scurried away.

When she saw that the housekeeper was gone and that she was now all alone, she started to panic.

She dashed to the door and yelled, “Open the door! Open up! Return the cell phone to me! I want my cell phone! Someone! I want to look for Second Brother! He can’t do this to me!”

After being shut in the room for a few days, she had become afraid.

If Second Brother really ended up with Qiao Lian, he could very well keep her imprisoned in this place forever so that she couldn’t become a hindrance between them.

The very thought of this was enough to drive her crazy.

She pounded on the door for hours, but there didn’t seem to be any sign of movements outside the door.

Dejected and dispirited finally, she slid down with her back against the door.

She stared at everything in the room. Gathering the last of her strength, she sprang to her feet and, with great force, swept all the dishes on the table onto the floor.

Then footsteps were heard.

She covered her face with both her palms and cried in anguish.

She couldn’t even communicate with the outside world. There was no way she could rescue herself.

After crying for a long time, she finally stopped.

The smell of food pervaded the room.

Among the mess from the food spillage, there was a fish.

After some time, the fish grew stale.

The smell of the stale fish drifted into her nose.

It could have been because she had been trapped in for too long, or it could have been the hard crying, but Qiao Yiyi suddenly felt ill. She clutched her chest as a wave of nausea washed over her.
