Chapter 1137 Michelles Hope Of Living (1/2)

Jacob had never had any interest to be with any other woman except Emily.

If Michelle still wasn't willing to accept that, he wouldn't mind giving her the cold shoulder.

Siting in the chair, Michelle was silently sipping some soybean milk. Although tears were glittering in her eyes, she held them in check with an iron will, unwilling to allow even one tear drop to spill over her cheeks.

She kept telling herself that there was always something else she could try next time.

Now, the only purpose of her living was to see Jacob.

She couldn't imagine what a life she could live if she had to give up on Jacob.

Michelle knew that she had to do something. Resolutely going to the HT Group every day was her only way to temporarily forget about what had happened to her that night.

The desperation and embarrassment she had felt after that night with Ray was not anything she wanted to endure again. Jacob was the last hope of her life.

So, she clung to the thought of him in desperation.

Although he disdained seeing her, she still couldn't give up.

”Ouch!”

Suddenly, Michelle groaned softly in pain. Frowning, she instantly held her hands over her stomach. Her face grew pale and skewered up as she felt cramping in her abdomen.

”What's going on? Did I catch a cold last night?”

The pain in her belly worsened, as if an electric drill was perforating the inside of her stomach. The pain was hard to bear. Michelle stumbled to the sofa and slowly curled her body into a ball. Her face lost all its color and great beads of sweat formed on her forehead.

It had taken her a lot of energy to drag herself to the couch. Hugging a pillow and lying on it with her body curled up, she finally felt a little better.

Michelle slowly closed her eyes after she peeked at the wall calendar with concern.

She calculated the date in her mind and figured it should be about time for her period to come.

She fully considered the pain as just a punishment of her irregular life style.

The clock ticked away and minutes turned into hours. The warm and bright sunshine shone on her body from the window, but she couldn't feel any warmth from it.

Her body trembled uncontrollably, and her chest heaved slowly. Her long and beautiful but cold fingers pressed hard against her belly. Great beads of sweat ran from her forehead to slowly drop down her cheeks.
