Buzz...

The sound of the phone vibrating was particularly jarring in the quiet room.

Patricia Sampson glanced at the phone in a daze and picked it up from the bedside table.

When she saw the name on the caller ID, she pressed the answer button without a moment's hesitation.

She was afraid that the call would be cut if she didn't answer it right away.

"Hello."

Her voice was shaky, betraying how anxious she felt.

Whenever she got a call from this number, she would feel inexplicably nervous.

Now, although the other party could not see her, she could not help but comb her hair with her fingers.

"I am coming home today," said a deep male voice on the other end of the line.

Patricia’s heart skipped a beat.

After being stunned for a few seconds, she hurriedly asked, "Then do you need me to do anything? What do you want to eat? Should I prepare anything else for"

"No," he interrupted her coldly, as if he was talking to a stranger and not his wife. 

He was her husband, but since he had treated her like "I have to go now."He abruptly hung up the phone.

Holding the phone in her hand, Patricia smiled bitterly and finished the sentence for her own ears.

"I might be pregnant."

Patricia and Zac Reynolds had been married for three years.

She lived with his family, while he lived alone in Oakleaf Villa.

In the three years they had been married, the only time they had spent the night together was about more than a month ago, when he had suddenly come back to the house of the Reynolds family instead of his own villa.

Patricia knew that he probably didn't remember what had happened that night.

Just when she had been starting to feel more and more redundant in this family, she had found out that she was pregnant.

However, she was hesitant to break the news to her husband, because she didn't know how he would react.

She shook her head and forced herself not to think about it.

At the end of the day, she didn't care about how Zac treated her.
