Goodbye, Ex-husband! I'm Pregnant with Your Uncle's Child!-Chapter 46 - A Man, a Woman, Plus a Child

Julia Land asked confusedly, “What Violet?”

Noah Quarter said, “Arabella, let me hold the baby.”

He meant for Arabella to stop talking.

Arabella nodded, handed over the child to him, and smiled gently.

She had just mentioned Violet, yet Julia’s face showed no signs of sadness.

The picture of them, a man, and a woman with a child, standing together was touchingly warm.

Julia sneered inwardly.

However, her face showed a saddened expression.

Noah Quarter noticed Julia’s sorrowful look.

Julia quickly raised a smile, “I’m off to ride horses, I won’t bother you anymore.”

Then, Arabella suddenly spoke, “Noah, isn’t that Mr.

Thompson over there?”

Noah turned his head to look.

It indeed was James Thompson.

“The woman by Mr.

Thompson’s side, who is she?

They look quite a match standing together.”

Arabella hadn’t expected to see such a pleasant surprise at the horse-riding range.

She looked at Julia and said with a slight smile, “Julia, you used to be very close to Mr.

Thompson, don’t you remember him?”

Arabella truly wanted to laugh now.

Back then, Mr.

Thompson was protecting Julia at Jade Gardens; she had been quite jealous of Julia’s good fortune, yet life was unpredictable.

Julia naturally glanced towards James Thompson, seeing him twist open a bottle of water and pass it to the woman.

The woman smiled with curved eyebrows and eyes.

Julia’s lips curved up, “Was I close to him?

I don’t quite remember.”

She gracefully mounted a horse and took a few laps.

Arabella watched Julia’s departing figure, scoffing inwardly.

When Julia returned from riding, Noah and the others were no longer at the horse-riding range.

She handed the horse over to a staff member and left the range.

“Sister Julia, where have you been these days?

You didn’t take me with you,” Sophia Hart accused her, clinging to a pillow.

“I went to lie in wait,” Julia replied, holding a bag of groceries, amused by Sophia, “I’m cooking today.”

“What are you planning to cook?” Sophia slipped on her slippers and ran to the kitchen.

“Braised fish, Mapo tofu, and spicy twice-cooked pork,” Julia said, smiling as she lowered her gaze.

Little Violet loved these strongly flavored foods.

But because of health reasons, he had been rarely eating such richly flavored foods.

Even at a barbecue, he seldom used condiments.

“I like these dishes,” Sophia enthusiastically supported.

She suddenly remembered to ask, “Sister Julia, what were you lying in wait for?”

Julia washed the fish and laughed, “Ex-husband.”

Sophia hesitated, then advised, “Sister Julia, could we like another man?

His first love already had his child.”

The only sound in the kitchen was that of water washing over the fish.

Julia thought of the infant in Arabella’s arms.

She placed the fish on the chopping board, picking up the cleaver, her fingers trembling slightly.

I’m sorry.

She couldn’t let Arabella Shaw go.

Absolutely not.

Sophia bit her lip, seeing how determined Julia was, she didn’t continue to persuade, “As long as you’re happy, Sister Julia.”

“You go watch TV, I’ll have the food ready soon.” Julia processed the fish, then went looking for ginger.

“Okay, thanks for the hard work, Julia,” Sophia Hart left the kitchen and sat on the sofa watching TV.

After Sophia left, Julia Land smiled helplessly.

Her acting skills were really good; everyone actually believed she was still in love with Noah Quarter.

Julia’s cooking skills were excellent; the two of them were stuffed after the meal.

“Julia, there’s an auction the day after tomorrow.

Can you come with me?”

“Sure, what do you want to bid on?”

“I want to bid on the Blue Heart Diamond.”

＊＊

Two days later, Julia Land went to the auction with Sophia Hart.

This time Julia didn’t dress provocatively; it was not suitable for such an event.

As soon as they arrived at the auction and got out of the car, a silver sedan also stopped ahead.

The driver got out and opened the door.

James Thompson got out of the car.

The man was wearing a black shirt today, with a few buttons undone, looking very casual.

From the other door, a woman dressed in a fitted dress alighted.

The woman walked over to James Thompson’s side.

Sophia Hart, upon seeing James, was about to joyfully call out to him when she noticed another woman hooking her arm through Brother Thompson’s.

Sophia instinctively looked at Julia.

Julia raised an eyebrow, reminding Sophia, “Why suddenly look at me?

Aren’t we going in?”

“Let’s go, let’s go.”

Sophia decided not to greet James Thompson.

James turned his head and saw Sophia Hart walking into the auction venue with Julia Land.

“Brother Thompson, let’s go inside.

Many people have come just for the Blue Heart Diamond.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

Julia and Sophia chose seats close to the front.

The person in charge of the auction went out to personally welcome a couple in.

The couple being ushered in were James Thompson and the woman.

“Mr.

Thompson, if you see something you like, just tell us directly, and it won’t go to auction,” the person in charge respectfully said.

Julia faintly heard the whispered conversations of the ladies behind her.

“When did Chloe Sullivan come back to the country?”

“A little while ago.”

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

“Who’s that man with her?”

The conversation behind them abruptly stopped when the auction person brought James and his companion over to sit.

Their seats were right in front of Julia and Sophia.

Sophia Hart, feeling frustrated, almost rolled her eyes.

The auction began, and the venue quieted down.

Julia looked down at her phone, disinterested; she had nothing she wanted to bid on, she was just there to accompany Sophia Hart.

When the Blue Heart Diamond was displayed for auction, Sophia Hart grabbed Julia’s arm, “Julia, look, isn’t it beautiful?”

Julia looked up at the display stand.

The Blue Heart Diamond was indeed very eye-catching.

“It is very beautiful,” Julia whispered.

Any girl would be happy to receive this gift.

From the seats in front, Chloe’s voice was heard, “Brother Thompson, that’s the one, I want it.”

The man nonchalantly responded, “Hmm.”

Chloe smiled with her eyes curved and waved the auction manager over.

They whispered briefly.

The auction manager nodded and returned to the stage, “Sorry everyone, this Blue Heart Diamond will not go to auction.”

Several ladies who had come specifically for the Blue Heart Diamond were disappointed when the auction was suddenly canceled; they sighed in regret.

Sophia Hart was the most upset; she too had come for the diamond.

She had just overheard Chloe’s conversation with Brother Thompson in front.

Seeing as it was a favor to Brother Thompson, the auction house gave the Blue Heart Diamond directly to Chloe Sullivan.

After the auction ended.

Sophia couldn’t bear it anymore and decided not to pretend she didn’t know him; she grabbed Julia’s hand and approached him, “Brother Thompson!

I want it.”
