Chapter 93 That Identity Can Go To Hell

The driver wasn’t the only one there to pick Yuliana up. Layla was also in the car at that time.

Layla wore a loose black suit with an airy blue shirt inside. The neckline was exquisitely designed, making her look refined and fashionable. It was clearly an outfit meant for working professionals.

Yuliana had heard from Xandria in the past that Christopher’s sister, Layla, was no ordinary woman. The reason why Kendrick was able to manage Solace Corporation so well was all thanks to Layla’s contributions. In fact, Yuliana could sense that Layla was a capable woman based on their previous meeting. However, the latter was dressed casually that evening. Her behavior and actions lacked the swiftness she had whenever she dealt with work, which made her temperament mellower.

Upon seeing Yuliana getting into the car, Layla gave her a slight nod. She glanced at the former’s abdomen, looking like she wanted to say something. In the end, she still held her tongue and turned to look out the window instead.

Yuliana was skinny, so she had very little fat on her body. Even though she was only pregnant for over three months, her abdomen was significantly larger than its usual size before her pregnancy.

The weather was starting to become chilly. Yuliana wore a white Chanel style jacket and a pair of beige wide-legged pants with a light caramel shirt inside. Her fair skin allowed the simple outfit to complement her temperament, making her seem gentle and compassionate.

The car had already sped down the road for a long time when a message tone blared out of Layla’s phone twice in a row. She picked it up while scanning the contents quickly. Then, she typed a quick reply to the message. Noticing Yuliana in the corner of her eye, Layla hesitated for a moment before opening the contact list on WhatsApp. A quick tap on a certain blank avatar later, she typed in a message before hitting the “send” button.

After sending the message, Layla put away her phone and asked, “The baby should be around four months. old by now, right?”

Yuliana happened to be spacing out the entire time, thinking about what Kendrick would say to her later. Suddenly, she heard Layla’s question, which stunned her for the next two seconds. Then, she nodded. “Yeah.”

Layla remembered that she couldn’t eat nor sleep well back when she was pregnant with Zofia. The torment lasted till she had given birth to her daughter.

Typically, pregnant women tend to gain weight more or less during their pregnancy. However, after Layla gave birth to her daughter, she got lighter by a pound or two compared to her pre-pregnancy weight instead of gaining weight.

“Do you have severe pregnancy reactions?”

Yuliana replied, “It was pretty uncomfortable during the first trimester, but I’m doing fine now.”

Her nausea and vomiting episodes seemed to improve significantly when she passed the three-month threshold. Currently, Yuliana feels tired all the time. This condition was especially obvious whenever she returned home from teaching four periods every day. All she wanted was to lie down and not move the whole time. Also, she was starting to suffer from a lack of sleep.
