One year, one love by Aurora Miller

Chapter 125

Rupert nodded. “Yes.”

Lewis then took Doris and left the ward, the cold vibe dissipating instantly.

Both Rupert and Claudia breathed a huge sigh of relief.

“Claudia, my current job was found by my brother–in–law for my sister’s sake, getting into Hartman Group is such an honor, I want to work hard there.

“Don’t provoke my sister anymore, you’ve seen how scary my brother–in–law is.” Rupert felt a deep headache. “What if I lose my job? What will we eat?”

“I didn’t provoke her. She provoked me.” Claudia still refused to admit her fault.

“Other men protecting their wives, and what about you? You have no backbone, completely dominated. Marrying you gives me no sense of security at all, Rupert, can’t you be a real man? Then I wouldn’t be bullied by them.”

As she spoke, Claudia’s tears welled up, swirling in her eyes, her delicate and pitiful appearance most likely to stir a man’s protective instincts.

Once, Rupert would have tenderly wiped her tears and held her, softly comforting her. But now, looking at her tears, Rupert felt less heartache and more annoyance.

“You seem to be speaking loudly and moving freely, so you should be fine. I’ll find a nurse to take care of you, and I’ll go back to work.” Rupert didn’t want to argue with Claudia.

“Rupert, do I have no conscience? I’m carrying your child, and you’re leaving me alone in the hospital?” Claudia, not getting the comfort she wanted, was dissatisfied.

“I said I’d find a nurse.” Rupert repeated.

“Do I need a nurse?” Claudia bit her lip.

“Claudia, I took leave as soon as I got the call and rushed to the hospital. I only took two hours off, I can’t stay here with you, I need to work, I need to earn money to support our family.”

“Earn money to support our family? That sounds nice.”

“Claudia, can’t you talk properly?” Rupert frowned, “I work so hard for our family, for you and the baby to live happily. There will be so many expenses after the baby is born, if I don’t work hard, I’ll be fired like last time.

“If I don’t have a job, you’ll be even more unhappy, calling me useless, and constantly arguing with me. Claudia, can you understand me? I’m really tired.”

“You think you’re the only one tired? What about me?” Claudia turned her head away, tears silently streaming down her face.

I don’t feel comfortable at all, I even have to escape my own home, if I
