Divorced Heiress
I am Not A Contract Chapter 5

Abby's smile never faded, she felt excited to tears as she saw her baby for the first time on that monit In fact, being a mother was far from her plans and now it was a reality, even though the situation was daughter.

Abby didn't say it, but deep down she longed for it to be a girl.

"Well, putting aside the topic of my baby, which we know is all fine for now," Abby didn't waste the op getting engaged

Apparently, by talking about other matters and keeping her mind occupied, Abby stopped thinking ab She couldn't even think about his name without getting angry.

Sarah Doinel parked the car outside L&J and let out a light laugh while playfully shaking her head. Ab days of rest wouldn't hurt.

"I won't refuse the idea again, prepare everything for this weekend. I'll leave the company in Vincent's Sarah knew very well that, even though Abby seemed indifferent to Vincent's unexpected rejection of the solitude of her room.

There was no one who knew the brunette better than Sarah Doinel.

"It doesn't matter, Sarah, you can say his name out loud in front of me, it's not like I'm going to die fro I'm going to leave the company. I'll still be a partner, but in the shadows, and I'll be there when necess decision she had made during the drive to L&J, and her surprise mixed with anguish was quite signific In a matter of seconds, Sarah thought about the time they had worked together, since she took over h moments.

Speaking of that, I want you to know that I've made a decision, Sari, ut I want to leave behind everything that can affect my pregnancy. I'll be able to be at peace as the doctor recommended," Abby informed Sarah of the was the pang she felt in her heart.

ents company; during that time, they had gone through the best and worst situations, hand in hand they had managed to overcome the most critical

She's thinking of abandoning everything and throwing away her effort and so many years of work, Sarught, but in the next second she put herself in her best friend's shoes, then she remembered that she had gone through a similar situation herself. "I understand her so well, it's like reliving that dark moment, I understand her because the first thing.ought back then was to distance myself from everything that could disturb my tranquility and think about my child. Now I must support her and be there for her, just as she has been for me since I returned to Paris, she doesn't deserve anything less."

Sarah's face of tragedy soon changed into a compassionate expression.

With a slight smile, she nodded her head, agreeing with her best friend's plans, not opposing her even once, even though that decision would ultimately affect the company due to her absence, she would go along with it for Abby's peace of mind.

"I won't oppose it, only you know what's best for you and that baby on the way. You have my full support, but there's something that leaves me unsettled. What do you plan to do from now on?" Sarah asked, still feeling worried for her best friend, even though she had shares in her companies and financial stability, she knew that she didn't have the support of her family, as it had crumbled because of Mrs.Dubois and her bad decisions.

"Don't worry about me, it's just a matter of time to get my life in order, whatever it may be, you will be the first to know every step I take." Abby's confident response did not dispel her friend's anguish, yet she trusted her word

What Sarah was sure of was that Abby is very capable of taking control of her life without anyone's help, because, as impertinent as she may be and as if she were missing a screw, she is also serious and responsible.

Abby didn't expect a response from Sarah, just by looking at her expression she knew that she, more than anyone else, understood her situation.

Taking her things, she got out of the car to start her last day at Las.

She couldn't deny to herself that the case overwhelmed her greatly; if it were under different circumstances, her pride wouldn't even let her think about the possibility of leaving, but now everything was different. It wasn't just about Abby anymore, now a life depended on her, and her priority was to stay away from the people who could disrupt her peace.

In short, she had to distance herself from Vincent, and she was aware that he wouldn't leave the company even if she begged him on her knees. That's why she preferred to be the one to retire, thinking of her well-being and that of her pregnancy. While she waited for Sarah to reach her side, her gaze stopped at a very familiar car to her, which was leaving the company's parking lot.

She couldn't help but feel her muscles tense up and her blood start to boil in her system; the black Rolls Royce had tinted windows, so it couldn't be seen who was driving it.

It didn't take a psychic to know who the owner of the ostentatious car was, which remained motionless for longer than it should have, although Abby also had no desire to look at that face she admired on more than one occasion.

She didn't want to see him ever again.

The car didn't even stop, on the contrary, Vincent drove away so fast after silently looking at the brunette who was a few meters away. His hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, making his knuckles pale, and thinking that if he had taken a minute longer to leave the company, maybe he would have bumped into her face to face, and that was the last thing he wanted.

In a matter of seconds, he disappeared from the sight of both women, driving at high speed through the city streets as if that could make him ignore the fast beats of his heart, the one he had stopped hearing by making decisions with his head and thus becoming a cold being

"Screw him." Abby murmured to herself, unheard by anyone, although it still affected her, she preferred him not to be in the same place.

Abby completely ignored him the next second, as if she had no idea who was in that luxurious car that was no longer visible nor its lights. And when she saw that Sarah was about to reach her side, she walked towards the entrance of L&J nonchalantly, with a barely existent smile as she firmly held the results of her first prenatal check-up, but inside she cursed and insulted that shameless man.

"He ended up being a real gem, filthy dog."
