The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective - Volume 2: Their Paths Cross Again Chapter 446 446: You Cheated On Your Fiancee?

~ Two Days Before the Mission ~

At Morning Star Media Network Building, Elle went back to work. According to the doctor, she was healthy and there’s nothing wrong even if she continued working.

The doctor just advised her not to get tired and stressed herself too much. She also gave her vitamins and food supplements that were good for her and the baby.

“Hey, how are you? I heard that you fainted yesterday. I visited you in the hospital only to find out you were already discharged. I came to your apartment but it was closed. I couldn’t contact you as well. Where did you go? Did you stay over with James?” Sandy spoke spontaneously, her eyes filled with worries and concerns.

Elle smiled cheerfully while eyeing Sandy meaningfully. She pulled her towards the exit door. She wanted to share her joy with her so she decided to reveal some truths with Sandy.

Elle held her shoulders and met her gaze.

“Sandy, I have something to tell you. Can you please keep it as a secret in the meantime?”

Sandy bobbed her head frantically, reassuring Elle that she would do it for her.

“Sandy I’m pregnant!”

“WHAT??!! YOU’RE PREGNANT?!”

Elle immediately covered Sandy’s mouth using her hands. She didn’t want others from the company to hear it.

“Hey, keep your voice low.” Elle squinted her eyes at her.

Sandy just nodded her head so that Elle would release her mouth.

“Are you not kidding? Are you really pregnant?” Sandy asked her again. The shock and disbelief were written all over her face.

“Yes, I’m dead serious. I’m two weeks pregnant,” Elle patiently answered her.

“Oh my God! You got pregnant right away after James returned. You really missed each other!” Sandy commented exasperatedly.

Elle didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. It’s just natural that Sandy would think that James was the father.

“James is not the father,” Elle stated once again.

“WHAT?! JAMES IS NOT THE FATHER??!”

Elle covered her mouth once again while rolling her eyes.

“Can you calm down and lower your voice please,” Elle asked her with a pleading look.

Sandy bobbed her head once again. Elle gave her a warning look before releasing her mouth once again.

“Oh my gosh! Ali you cheated on your fiancee! I couldn’t believe it. Who’s that bastard?! I’m gonna kill him. Who dare take advantage of you? Did you do it with a stranger? One nightstand? Why are you not careful!? You didn’t use protection or take morning pills after the deed? How can you be so irresponsible?! What will you do now?”

Sandy’s blabbering mouth was now activated, bombarding her with so many questions while scolding her.

Elle massaged her temples. Just talking to Sandy was giving her a headache. Then Elle rubbed her stomach as she spoke to Little Lee.

“Baby, please forgive your Aunt Sandy. She’s really talkative. Just cover your ears, baby. Don’t listen to her nonsense.”

Sandy: “…”

Elle heaved a sigh of relief when Sandy finally stopped talking.

“Hmm, can I speak now?” Elle asked Sandy.

Sandy just nodded at her. She was quiet, afraid that Elle’s baby would be disturb because of her noisy mouth.

“It’s Erick. He’s the father of my baby,” Elle said with a bright smile on her face, her eyes filled with love and affection for Erick.

“What?! Erick? Erick Lee?! The Handsome PervertChief Detective?!” This time Sandy said that in a low voice.

“Yes!”

“Oh my gosh! No wonder, you didn’t hesitate to cheat on your fiancee. Detective Lee is so handsome! Every woman could fall for him easily, including you. He is a great temptation for us women. Even I, myself, wanted to taste Erick Lee.”

“Ouch!” Sandy grunted as Elle hit her head when she said the last sentence.

Elle shot Sandy a cold sharp glare.

“ERICK IS OFF-LIMITS. He. Is. MINE. ONLY!” Elle emphasized every word.

“Hey, I’m just kidding. Besides, my charm won’t work on him.”

“But why did you do it? He’s already married, right? How about James?” Sandy asked her worriedly.

Elle heaved a deep sigh before explaining everything to Sandy.

“James and I are only friends. We are not in a relationship. We are just pretending. He’s the one who saved my life and brought me to the State for my medication.”

Sandy nodded her head, signifying that she understood what she was saying.

“How about Chief Lee? What is your relationship with him?” Sandy asked her curiously.

“I’m his wife who went missing two years ago,” Elle revealed to her.

“Oh my gosh! Now I get it! That’s the reason he always hugged you before when you saw each other after you returned here in City Z.”

“Yes, there’s a reason why I pretended not to know him. But eventually, he still found out the truth about my identity. Then we started seeing each other secretly.”

“His colleagues do not know about this yet. Can you please keep it a secret in the meantime? We will tell them once we settle some issues on my part.” Elle begged her.

“Alright, Ali. You don’t have to worry. Your secret is safe with me.” Sandy reassured her.

“Oh, by the way! Congratulations!” Sandy hugged Elle. She was happy for her.

“Thank you,” Elle mumbled.

“Let’s go back now. I have to talk with our superior. I will ask him for another assignment.” Elle said to Sandy.

“Oh, you will suggest him to cover another dangerous story? Oh noh, don’t do that. You’re pregnant now.” Sandy reminded her.

“I know. It’s different. Not dangerous compared to others.”

“Alright.”

They were about to go back when Elle noticed a silhouette behind them. Someone was listening to their conversation.

“Sandy, go ahead. I just have to check something. I will follow you after.”

Sandy just nodded her head before leaving Elle.

Elle started to walk to the corner where she caught a glimpse of someone’s shadow.

“Come out now. I know you are there. I saw you.” Elle said, telling the person who was hiding behind the wall.

“Brandon Stone a.k.a Black Shadow,” Elle said before letting out a soft chuckle.

Unknown to Elle, Black Shadow was not moving because he was still shocked by the news he overheard a while ago.
