Chapter 6

Emma’s POV

Hector looked at me with a serious expression.

Holding the checklist in my hand, I hesitated. Thea seemed to notice something and quickly stood between us. She took out her checklist and approached me. "Miss Green, look at my baby. It's been more than three months. I just had a 4D color ultrasound check, and it has already formed. Here's a picture... Look how cute it is! It's happy that I met you today. I must thank you for the baby and me in my belly. If it weren't for your generosity, how could the baby have a complete family, let alone a perfect father like Hector!"

This was clearly a show-off! I glanced at the picture Thea handed over. Sure enough, it was a formed baby with four limbs and a face. But my child was just a germ. Strictly speaking, it was not a life. This difference felt like wordless ridicule. It was unnecessary for Hector to mock me and my child!

Seeing that I was silent and easily bullied, Thea continued to speak hypocritically, "Miss Green, you are the baby's great benefactor. How about this? Give the baby a name, let the baby be grateful to you, and thank you for a lifetime!"

"What?" For the first time, I had the urge to kill Thea. Was she kidding?! First, she snatched my mate. And now, she asked me to name their child. How ridiculous!

I smiled coldly and looked at Thea with disdain. "Are you sure that you want me to name it?"

"Of course, Miss Green, if you are willing." Thea pretended to be very humble. But I knew she wanted me to be embarrassed in front of Hector. She expected me not to do it and even curse her in the face.

Obviously, no matter how generous and tolerant a woman was, she would not be so generous as to name the child of her mate and mistress. Hector frowned slightly and looked at me. He said in a deep voice, "If you find it difficult, you can refuse."

What a joke. Our rejection was already a certainty. But seeing me in such an awkward situation, he wanted to protect me? He was thinking too much.

"It's not difficult. It's so easy to give it a name." I didn't feel awkward at all and blurted out, "Dick Saunders!"

"Dick Saunders?" Thea was stunned. Apparently, she didn't expect me to name the child. She almost couldn't remain calm and asked tentatively, "What's the meaning?"

"It means he would be a dick, just like his father Hector. Look, what a nice name!"

Thea became angry. But because of Hector's presence, she could only endure her anger. I continued, "Miss Wilson, you asked me to name it so enthusiastically. Now that I have named it, you should use the name in the future. Otherwise, I will think that you are hypocritical and deliberately showing off!"

Hector had a grim look. He stared at me coldly, saying, "Enough, don't go too far."

"Which one of us is going too far, my ex-mate-to-be?" I met Hector's persuasive eyes and added, "It should be my ex-mate-to-be who is shameless, immoral, and unfaithful to the marriage."

Hector clenched his fists angrily. That's nice, I pissed off this jerk!

Hector’s POV

In the past, I thought of this woman as boring, like a marionette with no thoughts of her own. But now I realize that she is actually quite vigorous, with a talent for pungent satire and humorous mockery. She is like a wild wolf with its claws out, making people mad.

How could she possibly need protection?

Thea put on a rueful look and pulled my arm. "Hector, don't be angry with Miss Green. It's my fault. It's the baby's fault. Miss Green loves you so much, but she was forced to help us. It's normal for her to have grievances with me and the baby. Just let her vent..."

"You're wrong," Emma snorted. "You and your baby don't need to thank me. I made it very clear just now. I'm not helping you, I'm throwing a dick, which happened to be picked up by you. So the name, Dick Saunders, is very suitable!"

Then she looked at me with a smile. "Usually immoral men are going to be in bad luck. Alpha Saunders... Let me guess. You'll be in bad luck recently."

I was speechless.

"My mother told me when I was young, don't get close to unlucky people, or I'll become unlucky. So you two just get together. I respect and bless you. Bye!"

Her words were heavily ironic, and it made me angrier!

After all, in New York, I represented absolute authority. No one dared to annoy me! How dare she?

Before I could say something, Emma quickly slipped away.

Anyway, she seemed happy when she dissed Thea and me. Did she think it would be good if a scum man like me and Thea got extremely angry?

Funny.

After Emma left, Thea got close to me and tried to catch my hand. I took a step back.

Thea got a little awkward and continued talking. "Hector, calm down. Miss Green is probably too angry, so she can't hold back her words."

"It's my fault. It's my baby's fault. You can blame me. Don't blame Miss Green..."

Thea said a lot, but I didn't listen to her words. She was noisy and boring.

My eyes followed the direction where Emma left until she disappeared completely. "I told you, Hector, our mate is interesting!" Rex was excited.

"Ex-mate," I corrected Rex again. But I couldn't deny one thing.

My ex-mate-to-be was interesting!

Emma’s POV

After leaving the hospital, I was in a bad mood. I felt both anger and sadness.

I was angry at the scummy man and hypocritical woman who caused my distress. Meanwhile, I felt sad about the small embryo growing inside my belly. It was supposed to have a brilliant life journey, but because of its scum father, its promising future was ruined.

Hector Saunders, you jerk!

I took a deep breath, calmed down, and turned to my computer. My fingers quickly tapped on the keyboard, generating a long series of complex codes. In less than ten minutes, I had completed an intrusive virus program. After pressing the run button, I smiled in satisfaction.

Half an hour later, Saunders Group's business system crashed, and a large amount of customer information was leaked. I held my coffee and looked out the floor-to-ceiling windows at the sparkling river, finally feeling a little better. I had said that Hector would be in for some bad luck, and I was serious. This virus program was enough for the Saunders Group to suffer for half a month.

Hector, do you like my present?
