CHAPTER FIFTY TWO

MANNY

Manny woke up with a sick feeling in her gut the day after. She wasn't sure if it was the food she ate last night or pregnancy problem.

She didn't think too much of it and hurriedly had her bath, dressed up, and skipped out of her room quietly and quickly.

She was lucky enough not to cross paths with Andrew. It was like he knew she'd try to avoid him so he stayed clear.

She got outside, entered the car and the chauffeur drove her to work, and by the time she got to the fashion house, everyone was busy.

She tried sneaking around to get to her office so she wouldn't see her mother. Her head hurt and she wasn't ready to listen to her mother nagging.

“Manny!” She heard a sharp voice call her name.

She cursed under her breath and turned towards the direction of the voice.

“Mother.” She exclaimed, nearly in the same tone as her mother.

“You're late.”

Manny rolled her eyes at the familiar words she'd gotten tired of hearing.

“I'm pregnant mum, I should be allowed to be late sometimes.”
