And The Daddy Is… The Infertile Guy?!

Chapter 108

“Gemma, I need to hit the restroom. Could you hold my bag for a second?”

Vivien barked orders at Gemma as if she were commanding a servant.

Decked out in flashy jewelry with no real sense of style, Gemma was unbearable in her tastelessness.

As she held Vivien’s designer purse and followed in her wake, Gemma’s gaze landed on Vivien’s belly with a touch of envy.

The youth had its perks. Getting pregnant seemed so effortless.

Vivien entered the restroom, catching Gemma’s envious stare, and sneered, “Keep looking. You won’t hatch any eggs, old hen. If I’m carrying a boy, he’ll be the heir of the Chadwick and the Sawyer families!”

Gemma’s face paled. “I’m not after the family money.”

“You better not be.” Vivien reapplied her lipstick leisurely. “Seen the Clark family around? Last night, Howard had his goons rough up Jimmy something fierce! The Clark family got their lawyer on speed dial, ready to send Howard to prison once the birthday bash ends.”

“Your daughter, Gwendolyn, is about to marry into a life of shame with a convict for a husband. You wouldn’t snitch, would you, Gemma?”

Vivien smirked as she tucked her lipstick back into her purse.

At the mention of Gwendolyn, Gemma quickly distanced herself. “Her fate is none of my business. Better off without that jinx.”

After hearing that, Vivien’s red lips stretched into a brighter smile.
