Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again

Chapter 909 A Lavish Gift

Postpartum recovery wasn’t just for women who had given birth. Those who didn’t get to give birth to their baby––had a miscarriage or abortion, could do so as well. In fact, they were encouraged to do so as it was beneficial for their body’s recovery.

However, Daphne shook her head and rejected Sonia. “It’s fine, President Reed. I don’t need that. I grew up in a different culture from yours, and people in our culture generally don’t believe in postpartum recovery, so I’m not planning to do that as well. Like I’ve said, I’m afraid that I might get lazy after taking a break for a few days because I might not be able to get used to the high intensity work-life after I return, so a month’s break is definitely not going to do. If that’s the case, I don’t think I can carry on with my job anymore.”

After saying what she wanted, she chuckled.

However, Sonia frowned. “Is your job more important than your body? Daphne, I know that you’re a career-minded woman, but you can’t just disregard your health because of your job. I know that going through a postpartum recovery is not prevalent in your culture, but it must have its reason for being so well-practiced here. I’m doing this for your own good. If you return to work right after your operation, you won’t be able to continue working if your body gives in on you.”

Daphne went quiet and didn’t say anything because she knew that Sonia was only suggesting she go through a postpartum recovery for her own good.

Truthfully, she wasn’t against doing so, but she was just afraid that she might feel uncomfortable during that period, and it would remind her that she just aborted her baby.

Daphne was afraid that she might start thinking of Charles following that and start regretting getting an abortion.

If I keep thinking about the baby, I’ll definitely start regretting my actions…

The reason why she didn’t want to go through postpartum recovery was that she wanted to use her busy job to numb and distract herself from the uncomfortable feeling of her body so that she wouldn’t think about the baby or Charles.

However, she couldn’t say that because she didn’t want Sonia to know about it.

If Sonia knew, she would definitely think that Daphne was trying to use her job to harm herself.

Noticing that Daphne had her head hung low without saying anything, Sonia sighed. “Just listen to me. Rest at home after your operation, and don’t come to work before the one-month mark. Even if you come, I’ll get someone to send you home, is that clear?” she said with a stern voice.

Right then, Daphne’s mouth moved a little. It seemed like she still wanted to argue against Sonia, but Sonia immediately glared at her. “Alright. That’s enough. I’ve made my decision, and you’re not allowed to argue against me. I’ll visit you when I’m free, and I’ll be pissed if I find out that you’re not resting at home.”
