Chapter: 91

Stacey Cullen acted as the agent managing Lilliana. She was orchestrating the online smear campaign.

The assistant opened the door and bumped into Joshua.

He saw the tears on her face. “Is everything alright?" he asked casually.

Lilliana overheard and looked over. Her eyes narrowed sharply.

The assistant knew how volatile Lilliana could be. She didn't dare reveal the truth. "I'm fine, Mr. Yates," she said before making her exit.

Joshua entered the room carrying a bowl of fruit.

"Lilliana, the doctor advised you to avoid stress during your pregnancy," he reminded her.

Lilliana sneered. "Are you pitying her just because she cried?"

Joshua looked down, trying to stay calm. "Why must you be jealous about everything? I was simply asking.”

He picked up a piece of fruit from the bowl and offered it to her.

Lilliana refused to accept it.

She clung to Joshua and pouted. “I'm tired of eating the same food every day. Honey, I want some dessert. Go and get it for me."

Joshua felt utterly exhausted. He had no desire left to move.

“I'll order delivery," he suggested.

“No, I want you to get it yourself!" Lilliana shook his arm. “If you won't, it means you don't Love me."

Even after seeing her beautiful face, Joshua felt no affection for her.

He was completely drained. Right now, he felt like a machine operating without rest.

For some reason, he was starting to feel disgusted with this beautiful, scornful vixen of a woman.

"Fine, I'll go get it," he agreed, finally giving in. After investing so much in her, he felt he had no choice but to yield again. "Rest up. I'll be back soon."

Lilliana leaned in and kissed him.

He returned the kiss, then stood up to leave.

At the doorway, he wiped lipstick from his mouth and made a call.

"Has Alicia come to the office to see me?" he asked.

His secretary informed him that Alicia had not come by.

Joshua's expression darkened.

"No?"

Despite the major scandal, Alicia remained remarkably calm.

Still, how long could she maintain her composure?

“Keep a close eye on her. Don't allow anyone to assist her," Joshua commanded.

After the call, a car drove into the driveway.
