The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 192
Chapter 192: The Child’s Father
Daisy learned from Rosa’s unintentional work arrangements that Sebastian was not in at the office these days.
She remembered that when she met Sophia yesterday, she looked listless. It seemed that her guess was right. This woman wanted to use that advantage to get Sebastian.
But now, everything was uncertain. Daisy touched her belly.
She was almost six weeks pregnant, and her belly did not look as obvious as Sophia’s. If she suddenly told Sebastian she was pregnant, he would not believe it.
Fortunately, Daisy found some special drugs through the black market. She was told it would make her belly look bigger but not affect the baby too much. Daisy was not stupid. She first found someone to try it for two weeks and only started to use it when she found nothing abnormal.
However, Daisy had spent most of her money on this. Only then did Daisy remember Norman’s existence.
Norman had not contacted her for a week. So what the hell was this guy doing? Had he given up? Although Daisy felt much more at peace, her money became increasingly scarce. Although Norman was sometimes annoying, he was still very generous. When she was with him, Daisy had never worried about money.
Looking at her bank card with slightly over a thousand dollars left, which was half a month’s salary, Daisy began to hate her internship. Nevertheless, she was motivated to stay here for a long time to become the lady boss of NRTE.
So, she dialed Norman’s number.
It was noisy in the background on the other side of the phone. Norman seemed to be in a bar or somewhere lively, and he picked up the phone.
“Hello?” He asked. He no longer sounded as happy as before when he had picked up Daisy’s call.
“Norman, it’s me, Daisy.”
Hearing this familiar voice, Norman did not seem perturbed. However, he still smiled and answered, “It’s you. What’s the matter?”
From Norman’s tone, it seemed that he did not like her very much anymore, Daisy thought to herself. Could it be that he had already let go of her in just a few days? Wasn’t he jealous of Alan just a few days ago? That shouldn’t be the case.
“It’s nothing serious. I just have a favor to ask of you.” Begging was like asking for a favor.
“Oh, tell me what it is. As long as I can help you, I won’t refuse,” Norman promised. First, he wanted to see what Daisy was up to now.
“So, I have encountered difficulties recently, and I need some money…” Daisy said straightforwardly.
She planned to make a fortune in the end if this was the last time she looked for Norman.
“Oh, is five hundred thousand dollars enough? Well, I understand. I will handle this,” Norman agreed readily and quickly hung up the phone.
Daisy was stunned by the busy tone. Norman had never hung up on her so decisively before. In the past, he had always waited for her to hang up first, making Daisy feel she was at a disadvantage.
Daisy was not used to such a straightforward attitude. She did not know if Norman agreed for real. After all, five hundred thousand dollars wasn’t a small number. Was he willing to lend it to her? No, she didn’t say anything about borrowing it.
But not long after, Daisy received five hundred thousand dollars in her account. But this time, she only received the money, but there was no sign of Norman. He didn’t text or call her. What did he mean?
What was wrong with him? Was he really angry? Or had he given up on her? Was the five hundred thousand dollars the break-up fee?
Daisy felt it necessary to ask, but she didn’t act immediately. Instead, it would seem that she was trying to curry favor with him for the money. But on second thought, she could fish for Sebastian with this money, and then money wouldn’t be a problem anymore.
Thinking of this, Daisy’s lips curled into a smile. Who cares? Norman was nothing. She had an even greater plan.
“VVhat’s wrong? Drink, drink, drink! Don’t stop!”
The people in the bar kept urging Norman to drink. This was the third day this man had appeared in this bar. In these three days, he had treated everyone in the bar to drinks every night. This was a one-of-a-kind event.
This made everyone feel that this handsome young man must have some secret, and he was a super-rich man.
Norman didn’t care about this. He only cared whether he could release his frustrations in the bar. In this space filled with the smell of alcohol, cigarettes, and women’s perfume, he could relax. Since Morris didn’t allow him to find women, he could at least drink with a group of men.
He didn’t have to look at her bitter face all the time.
When he just received Daisy’s call, he was a little surprised. He didn ‘t expect this young lady to call him. He didn’t expect it to be for money. But, thinking of his relationship with Daisy, he felt he should help her.
After all, he was Daisy’s child’s father..
