Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After... 1/14

Chapter 681 A Narrow Escape

As they were talking in the elevator, a

staff member's voice came from outside.

"Ladies, are you both doing alright in

there?"

Having just been rebuffed by Meryl, Lydia was already in a bad mood and decided to

take it out on the staff.

"We're suffocating in here! Of course, we're not okay! I'm filing a complaint!"

The person apologized repeatedly. "Please hold on. We've contacted the elevator company. Their repair team is on the way. It should be about five minutes." Chapter 681 A Narrow Escape

"Five minutes?" Lydia exploded at this news. "That's way too long!"

The staff member apologized again. "I'm so sorry, ma'am."

Then Dalton seemed to arrive, exchanging a few words with the staff outside.

As soon as she heard his voice, Lydia started whining. "Dalton, I'm seven months pregnant! Why do I have to suffer like this? My back is killing me; my legs are numb, and I can barely stand anymore." Dalton frowned, pressing his ear against the door to listen carefully. Not hearing Meryl's voice, he felt uneasy.

He anxiously asked, "What about her? Is she okay?"

Lydia knew who "she" referred to.

Even Meryl was surprised, she hadn't expected that Dalton's first concern upon arriving would be about her condition. Lydia gritted her teeth. "She's fine!"

Dalton let out a sigh of relief.

In a voice only the two of them could hear, Lydia said to Meryl, "Are you feeling smug? My husband's heart only cares about you."
