NovelBook12:44 Chapter 232 “You must think you're so clever, don't you? Just because Leopold broke off our engagement doesn't mean he'll ever marry you,” she spat, her eyes blazing with rage.
With a sudden move, she whipped out a switchblade from her pocket. “I'm going to kill you!” Evelyn leapt up from her chair, grabbing a mug from the table and hurling it at Elowen, who dodged it swiftly. The office erupted into chaos as everyone screamed and scrambled to exit the room.
Aurelia pushed herself to her feet, intending to escape as well, but Evelyn caught her from behind. She twisted Aurelia’s body and hid behind her, clutching her blouse tightly, using her as a human shield.

Evelyn only gave a sinister smile in response. She was purposefully manipulating the situation, using Aurelia as a protection against Elowen, and potentially getting rid of her in the process. It was killing two birds with one stone in her eyes.
“Help me, Aurelia,” she pleaded, pretending to shake with fear. “Elowen wouldn't hurt you. You're her friend.” Aurelia stared in terror at Elowen, whose eyes were filled with bloodlust. The switchblade in her hand glinted ominously under the harsh office lights. Elowen had completely lost her sanity, and Aurelia was certain she wouldn't hesitate to hurt her.
In her fear, Aurelia felt her body go cold and her knees tremble. She was terrified for herself and for her unborn children.
“Evelyn, I'll kill you!” Without any hesitation, Elowen charged at them, blade in hand.
Thinking quickly, Aurelia slipped off her oversized coat, as smoothly as a snake sheds its skin. The coat was so loose that removing it was a piece of cake. The moment she broke free from Evelyn, she ran towards the exit, clutching her pregnant belly.
She didn’t dare to look back, fearing that she might get caught again.
She kept running until she reached the elevator, where Yuna and a security guard hurried out. They immediately rushed to support her.

Back at the office, the security guard had subdued Elowen, while Evelyn had allowed herself to be superficially cut by Elowen’s knife to seek sympathy from Leopold.
Outside, everyone's attention was drawn to Aurelia. Without her jacket, her pregnant belly was clearly visible. Jenny quickly realized what was going on and gasped. She took off her own jacket to cover Aurelia, shielding her from the curious eyes.
“Everyone, go back to your offices. I'll stay here with Manager Aurelia and wait for the ambulance.” Emma also caught on, her eyes widening in surprise. “Aurelia, it's like you're not getting uterine fibroids, but you're pregnant! | can’t believe you managed to hide it from everyone.” Yuna snapped at her, “Shut up, or I'll shut you up.” But Emma spat on the ground defiantly, “And here | thought she was single. | wonder who the father is.” Aurelia’s face turned pale. She knew her secret was out, but all she could think about was the safety of her ‘children.
The paramedics arrived and quickly loaded both Aurelia and Evelyn into the ambulance.
Evelyn looked at Aurelia’s pregnant belly, her eyes wide with shock.
Aurelia was pregnant! But who was the father?
