Chapter 1864
After a pleasant gathering and a night full of thrills, all of it finally came to an end. In the morning, everything finally returned to tranquility. The wind blew gently and the shining of the sun was beautiful. It was another gorgeous day.
Soon, the news that the police had stopped a major international criminal gang and cut off a new drug production chain hit the headlines. They had also captured 26 criminal suspects. The seized drugs and raw materials weighed nearly 800 kilograms. The police also seized three million dollars of cash as well as eight vehicles that were involved. Everything they confiscated had a combined value of 140 million dollars. Moreover, the drug formulas and equipment in the international drug factories were taken away as well. It instantly became sensational.
Those new drugs were disguised and modified. Some of the drugs were straight- up camouflaged as commercial medicine. Many of the drugs were concealed by mixing them into Paradise Coffee and Hell Ice Water, while others were sold under the name of products like double-colored chocolate beans despite their contents being completely different. Even though not all of the drugs could be eradicated, they could at least give people warnings and reminders about how the drugs might have been hidden.
That day, Waverly could not help but sigh as she watched the news report at home. It turned out that the factory was built on a poor, rural mountain, and that the formula was seized there?"
In the report, the police never brought up the authenticity of the formula. Regardless of whether that was because of an oversight, because they thought it was an inside job, or that they simply forgot to mention it, the raw materials all ended up getting destroyed. The issue with the formula had finally come to an end. Everyone could finally relax.
While looking through the news, Waverly saw a report about the chamber of commerce donating advanced equipment and funds to help the police maintain the peace. She thought, "They're something else. We were supposed to donate the advanced equipment in the first place, but they managed to get everyone to donate and show their support."
They were publicly putting the icing on the cake, yet it wasn't too exaggerated or understated. It was really thoughtful! Their actions were quite reasonable.
She made up her mind to have a good talk with him when he got back.
As soon as the idea flashed through Waverly's mind, she picked up her phone before a smile could fully spread through her face. She looked up and saw Wyatt standing beside her. Instantly, she shot up from where she was half-lying on the sofa.
"Why are you home, Hubby?"
"I came back to get an important document and decided to check up on you while
I was at it. You'll ruin your eyes like that, you disobedient girl." Wyatt sat at the side looked at her belly, which had an obvious bulge, and gave her a pillow to lean against. It helped to relieve her neck, too.
"If you have nothing to do, then watch TV. Don't keep staring at your phone! Aren't you tired?" he nagged.
Waverly shook her head and raised her hands to help him straighten out his suit. "I'm carrying a baby in my womb. I'd have to be stupid to not be tired."
All she did was eat and sleep. She was too lazy to even move and would feel exhausted after taking just a few steps.
She had no idea if it was because of her pregnancy or if it was just her own constitution. Waverly was enjoying herself so much that she didn't dare to look at herself in the mirror. If Wyatt didn't treat her gentler with every passing day, she would have had an existential crisis.
Waverly couldn't help but pout at the thought of that. The headlines about the recent progress in the drug case had talked about how Wyatt, one of The Four Great Masters in Casterwich City, had lowered his standards and married her, the infamous "ugly widow".
In the past, she was the dangerous Black Widow, but she had become a fat, ugly version of Black Widow. Most people wanted a rich, pretty girl with fair skin. On the contrary, she had gone in the completely opposite direction. She hadn't even given birth yet and she was almost twice the size she used to be. She felt so ashamed!
How depressing...
When Alicia, Victoria, and Lauren were pregnant, they didn't get fatter in any part of their body other than their stomachs. Why was she so different?
Fortunately, Wyatt held her in his arms every day as usual. He didn't bother buttering her up. Even though she figured he was probably bothered by it, his reaction still made her feel a lot better.
"You know what? Maybe it's better to be stupid. I can't handle people who are too intelligent. It's so stressful! I like the stupid ones," he joked.
Despite rolling her eyes, Waverly couldn't help but giggle. "All you know how to do is change the topic."
Every time she expressed her disdain for being too fat and how inconvenient it was for her to move he would naturally divert her attention to something else, so that
it wouldn't weigh on her min Sol. n@
She
was busy with her pregnancy at home, so even if he didn'tcome back in the middle of the day, he would almost always give her a video call. Although it was often only five minutes long, it made her feel very relaxed. No matter what she looked like or what others said, she was happy to be pregnant with his child.
While caressing her dainty head, Wyatt also smiled and squinted his eyes. "Waverly..."
"Hm?"
"I love you."
With that gentle statement, he gave her a quick peck. In an instant, Waverly blushed. He was doing it again in broad daylight!
She gave him a gentle push and her voice instantly softened. "You're joking around again."
She hardly heard him tell her that he loved her in the past. She had no idea what had been going on the past few days. For some reason, he would tell her almost every single day. At that moment, Waverly felt as if she was falling in love all over again.
It was a beautiful, intense, and joyful feeling.
Her heart always thrummed whenever he teased her like that. Even though he was speaking so quietly that only the two of them could hear him, there was no way she would be able to handle hearing a super handsome guy like him confessing his love for her every day.
Waverly glared at him, but she was already grinning from ear to ear. It went without saying that she was happy!
Right then, the servant knocked on the door and brought her some fruit. Wyatt fed her while eating at the same time. After talking for a while, he got up and left.
"They're rushing me to go back. If you feel bored, go and hang out with Alicia and the others. Call me if something happens! Don't just keep to yourself, okay?" he said.
"Okay! Don't worry about me. I always have my location turned on," she assured.
Waving her hand, she took a grape and stuffed it into her mouth. Her eyes were glimmering like stars.
Ever since she got pregnant, shenet
didn't have that knot in her heart anymore. It seemed that the hazy barrier between her and Wyatt was totally gone. Her emotions had undergone a complete overhaul.
After watching Wyatt walk out of the door, Waverly got up and moved away. She went to the bathroom, then walked downstairs in an attempt to digest her food. She figured that it would be more difficult to go out once her belly grew bigger, so she picked up her phone and made a few calls.
Alicia was at her shop, negotiating important events to join. Lauren was trapped at school for a parent-child activity in the end, Victoria was the only one left at home taking care of her baby. After Waverly and Victoria talked over the phone, they came up with a plan. Waverly changed into a different pair of shoes in preparation to go to Victoria's house for lunch.
They gossiped and teased the baby. Somehow, they ended up talking about the birthday banquet and the criminal case that day. Waverly, who seemed to have remembered something, spoke up.noveldrama
"I'm pretty sure that the culprits have been sentenced already. I think I saw or heard about it somewhere. Apparently, Anthony was sentenced to three years of drug rehabilitation after rehabilitation because of his good attitude and his contribution to solving the case."
