President's Substitute Wife

I held the box tightly and looked at Ming. “I can’t marry you before he comes back, but I want Lester to live. If Lester dies, I won’t live.”

“Oh.” Ming looked up at me. “We can not get married. You can have my baby first.”

“...”

“So it doesn’t matter when Sean comes back.” He looked at me and said firmly, “after all, you are a mother who loves her child so much. No matter who the father is, I think you will love him the same.”

Ming was really a gloomy and terrible man.

He controlled me with this kind of gentle words.

Yes, he was right.

I didn’t think a mother would hurt her children.

I didn’t speak. Ming waved at me. “I’ll give you two weeks to think about it. If you decide, come to me.”

I took the medicine away and left without hesitation.

When I got to the car, I took the medicine box apart and there were three pills in it.

How should Lester take this medicine?

When I was about to call Ming, my cell phone rang.

Ming called me first. I picked up the phone and he said, “take one pill at a time and take the next one 24 hours later.”

“OK.”

I nodded.

I thought he just called me to say how to take the medicine.

But he went on to say, “this medicine is specially made for Lester, so he has to take it all. If you want to take a pill to study, I won’t object, but if Lester has an accident, don’t come to me again.”

I was panicking.

In fact, I didn’t think of taking the medicine to study, but he thought of it first.
