Chapter 2442
“Did I cross the line with what I‘ve said? Don‘t you think he‘s disgusting by asking me to acknowledge him as my
relative the moment I came?”
Yannie was stunned when Thomas pointed at her. She shot Thomas a dull look, then turned to look at Luna and
Joshua warily.
She was in tremendous fear at the moment.
Her heart had been pounding the moment she bumped into Thomas‘ assistant. After all, she had once seen his
assistant before.
On that night a year ago, she bumped into a man when she was in a hurry to escape from Thomas‘ room, and that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtman was Thomas‘ assistant!
Yannie, on that night, was in a mess with her clothes torn. The assistant had assumed she was a beggar and thus
barked at her.
She was badly shaken up, fearing that the assistant would recognize her when she bumped into him afraid that
Thomas would come looking for her.
Two months ago, she delivered her infant in a small hospital, but the baby did not survive.
She thought she could care for her child, even imagining that the baby would grow up to be handsome like
Thomas.
Who would have thought...
By the time she woke up, the doctor told her the baby was dead, and the corpse was taken away. There was
nothing else she could have done but drown herself in sorrow and pain.
After that day, she comforted herself by telling herself it was all just a dream.
The baby knew he would be unhappy to have lived with a poor mother, and that was why he chose to leave the
world upon birth. As such, she even prayed for the baby for a month, hoping the baby would find a better family in
his next life.
Yannie never thought that Thomas would, at present, come to Merchant City just as she was slowly moving on. Not
only did he come to Merchant City, but he even saw her a few times.
She was afraid, terrified that Thomas would find out that she had delivered his baby in silence. She was even more
terrified to let Thomas know that she failed to care for the infant, that the child after their birth.
That was why she had tried all means possible to avoid Thomas. She dreaded that Thomas or his assistant would
recognize her.

Despite these thoughts, however, she could not help but glance at Thomas discreetly. Thomas was no doubt a
handsome, good–looking man.
He was the most handsome man she had ever seen in her life.
If she did not walk into the wrong room a year ago, and if Thomas was not drugged...she would never have had the
chance to get close to a man like Thomas, what more to have carried his child.
“Say something.” When Yannie was spacing out as she stared at Thomas‘ face, Thomas narrowed his eyes and
looked at Yannie impatiently. “I asked you a question. Why are you staring at me?” Smirking, he added, “I know I‘m
very good–looking, but this isn‘t the time for you to ogle me.”
Yannie blushed instantly. She turned her face to the side so she did not have to look at him. “Mr. Howard,
did you just ask if what you did was way overboard?” She pursed her lips. “That‘s ridiculous.”
