She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment

h time passed, Joel would officially register their marriage in order to give the girl a mother.

This way, even if they didn’t hold a wedding ceremony, she would still become the veritable Mrs.
Smith!

However, apart from when she was picking up and dropping off Mia, she actually didn’t have any chance to meet Joel at all after she moved in.
It was no exaggeration to say that they were strangers with the closest relationship with each other.

At this point of Hillary’s inner thoughts, Joel said, “Since you’ve broken the rules… Get lost.”

Get lost?

Hillary’s head whipped up and she stared at him incredulously.

Even when he was telling her to get lost, Joel’s upturned eyes still felt mild-mannered, despite him being expressionless.

Astonished, she asked, “What did you say?”

Joel stood up and said mercilessly, “You violated our agreement.”

She had violated their agreement…

Hillary started to tremble all over.

To be honest, this wasn’t the first time she had violated it during all these years.

The Joneses had already tacitly recognized them as husband and wife when she moved into the Smiths.
It was also thanks to this that the Joneses’ businesses started to do better and better.

Hillary was even on tenterhooks when the Joneses first used the Smiths’ name in their business dealings.
However, she had later discovered that Joel didn’t care at all even when he did find out.

After that, she had let down her vigilance.

Yet he was bringing up their agreement now?

Hillary reached out and clutched Joel’s sleeves.
She said, “Joel, I was wrong.
I’ve really seen the error of my ways…”

Joel pulled his sleeve out of her grip.
There was no trace of emotion at all in those eyes on his expressionless countenance.
He asked coldly, “Are you going to leave by yourself, or should I get someone to throw you out?”

Hillary’s legs went limp and she almost fell onto the floor.

Five years!

She had lived here for a whole five years!

How cruel and unfeeling must a person be, in order for them to hold not even the slightest bit of feelings for her?

She regained sobriety at once.

Counting on Joel’s sympathy or feelings for her would get her nowhere.

That little bastard was the only thing she could count on now!

Hillary’s eyes reddened.
She gazed at Joel earnestly and said, “I was wrong, Joel.
I’ll leave, but can you let me see Mia before I go?”

Joel stared hard at her.

“Okay.
But when you see her… Surely you don’t need me to tell you what you can say in front of her and what you can’t, right?”

Hillary’s gaze flickered.
She lowered her head and replied, “No, I’m aware.”

Only then did Joel instruct the nanny, “Bring Mia over.”

Mia was resting at home today and hadn’t gone to school after suffering an allergic reaction the day before.

She was currently playing by herself in her bedroom.
When the nanny brought her over, she asked timidly, “Mommy, Daddy… What’s the matter?”

Hillary immediately put on an affectionate and devoted act.
She hugged Mia and said, “Mia, Mommy will be away for a while.
You must behave at home, okay?”

She had already thought about it.
Joel had a thousand and one ways he could drive her away if she kicked up a fuss in front of her daughter.

Her only option at the moment was to make Mia reluctant to leave her, and make her cry her eyes out in her arms… That was the only way Joel would let her stay.

She was confident that she had treated Mia well enough all these years.
Besides, she was her mother; Mia definitely wouldn’t bear to leave her side.

She stared at Mia and asked, “Will you miss Mommy, Mia?”

However, an anticipative Hillary never expected that Mia would instead nod and reply timidly, “Go ahead, Mommy.
I’ll be a good girl.”
