Chapter 1108 Departure
"Why aren't you saying anything? Speak up!" Seeing Cecilia remain silent for a long time, Daryl shook her body, his grip tightening significantly.
Cecilia felt like her shoulders were about to be crushed. She didn't understand how Daryl had discovered the birth control pills she had hidden in the bathroom. She thought it was a normal thing, even though she had kept it from him. He had no reason to be this insanely angry.
The next moment, Cecilia couldn't bear the squeezing and shaking any longer. She lost control and shouted at Daryl, "Daryl, Do I really need to spell it out for you? Don't you understand?"
"This is something you did. How would I understand?" Daryl said with anger.
"Daryl, we are just in a transactional relationship. I'm your bed partner, not your girlfriend, and certainly not your wife. I have no right to bear your kid!" Cecilia suddenly shouted at Daryl.
Hearing this, Daryl was stunned, and then his hands slowly released Cecilia's shoulders.
Seeing Daryl's complex expression, Cecilia rubbed her aching shoulders and sneered. "Of course, if you're willing to pay me a high price, I wouldn't mind having a kid for you. But we need to negotiate the money first, don't you think?"
At this moment, Cecilia felt incredibly bitter. She was saying these things out of angry, but since Daryl had already decided she was that kind of woman, it didn't matter anymore. Maybe saying these things would make him hate her even more. Perhaps he would leave in anger and never come back. After all, their contract only had three months left.
Thinking about this deadline, Cecilia felt a deep sadness. Although she didn't want to be entangled with Daryl anymore, the thought of leaving him and never seeing him again made her heart ache.
Cecilia's words easily reignited Daryl's anger. He grabbed her arm and said through gritted teeth, "What kind of woman are you? Why are you so heartless? Why do you only care about money? Don't you know there's such a thing as love and loyalty in this world?"
"How much is love and loyalty worth? We only have a financial relationship, and you want to talk about feelings with me? That's ridiculous!" Cecilia sneered.
Seeing the sneer on Cecilia's face, Daryl stared at her with a sinister look for a while, then pushed her hard.
Cecilia instantly lost her balance and fell onto the bed.
Daryl pointed angrily at Cecilia and said, "Who do you think you are? You think I would let you have my kid? You're not worthy because you're too filthy, shameless, and greedy. The kid you have wouldn't be any better. I would never allow my kid to have a mother like you!"
Hearing this, Cecilia, lying on the bed, clenched the bedsheet tightly.
She knew that her image in his eyes would never improve, so she might as well let him think that way. In three months, he wouldn't miss her anymore. He could live happily with Skylar, and she would just be a passerby in his life that he didn't want to mention.
Then, Daryl stormed out, slamming the door in anger.
Lying on the bed, Cecilia heard the deafening sound of the door slamming and crystal-clear tears fell onto the bedsheet.
After a long time, Cecilia picked up the small pill bottle that had rolled into the corner. She was puzzled, thinking, 'It's normal to take birth control pills, so why is Daryl so furious? It seems he still resents me in his heart and is just looking for an excuse to give me a hard time.'
For a whole week, Daryl didn't return to the villa.
During this time, Cecilia counted the days one by one, and the end of the year was getting closer.
Although Cecilia hoped time would pass quickly, she still felt a bit reluctant deep down.
She still couldn't completely take back her love for Daryl, which troubled her greatly.
That afternoon, Cecilia came home from school.
As soon as she entered the living room, she saw someone sitting on the couch like a statue.
Daryl was wearing a black suit, with a slight frown on his face, looking somewhat troubled. His expression wasn't very pleasant.
Seeing Daryl like this, Cecilia's heart tightened.
'It has been a week, and his anger still hasn't subsided?' she thought.
Seeing Cecilia return, Daryl glanced at her and then checked his watch.
His expression seemed like he was in a hurry. At this moment, Cecilia heard footsteps coming from the stairs.
Looking up, she saw Freya coming down the stairs with a large suitcase.
"Mr. Fields, your clothes and personal items are all packed." Freya placed the large suitcase in the center of the living room.
Seeing the large suitcase, Cecilia frowned and thought, 'What does this mean? Is he going on a trip? If he is going on a business trip for two weeks or more, we won't have to see each other during that time.'
At this moment, Cecilia heard footsteps behind her.
Turning around, she saw Douglas walking in.
Douglas nodded at Cecilia as a greeting, then walked up to Daryl and said, "Mr. Fields, the plane tickets are booked. The flight leaves in two hours. We need to head to the airport now."
Hearing this, Daryl nodded in acknowledgment.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became tense.
Douglas quickly sensed the situation, turned around, picked up the suitcase in front of Freya, and tugged at Freya's floral dress, signaling her to follow him out.
Freya was momentarily stunned, then quickly understood and followed Douglas out of the villa.
When only Cecilia and Daryl were left in the living room.
Daryl suddenly stood up and walked over to Cecilia.
Cecilia looked up at Daryl and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Back home," Daryl replied.
Hearing this, Cecilia's brow immediately furrowed.
At this moment, Cecilia suddenly felt a bit panicked. 'Why is he suddenly going back home? Is he going back to marry Skylar?' The thought made Cecilia's chest ache.
Probably seeing the question in Cecilia's eyes, Daryl looked at her and said, "My mother just called. My father is sick and needs me to go back immediately."
Hearing this, Cecilia was stunned.
Then, she felt ashamed of her previous thoughts.
