Chapter 5 - Chapter Six

Felicia's POV

After the car stopped us close to the university, I stood by the side waiting for Jenny and Dexter Li to finish talking, after the car finally left I walked up to her wide eyes and still stunned from everything.

"Jenny why didn't you tell me... It was Mr Li you slept with that night, that's a whole Mr Li!" Even till now I still couldn't believe this was real. My best friend was pregnant for Mr Li, the cold untouchable CEO who was said to inherit the company and made it the number one.

"Is he... Famous?"

"Are you serious? Of course?! Even my family can't afford to offend him, we have a few businesses with their company"

Both of us headed back into the campus to our dorm. After the shock of what had happened today wore off I looked at Jenny.

"So... You're really getting married huh? Look if he ever... Does something you don't like or... He is violent, you have to tell me okay, my family might not be able to compete with him but we still have connections in the country, we'll help you, and your child"

"Thanks Felicia" Jenny smiled before her stomach growled.

"Yeah I'm pretty hungry too, let's go by the school cafeteria" I pulled her along.

"Hey Jenny, Felicia!"

We turned around and saw Derrick Wang, the university heartthrob and every girl's dream guy.

"Oh hey Derrick, fancy seeing you out here, it's pretty late" He gave a small smile. "Yeah we're just hanging out over there with others, want to join us?" he pointed at a table not far and looked at Jenny expectantly. I looked at the table as they waved us over, all except Jessica He who sat with a frown and a glare at Jenny.

"Uh... We were just heading to grab a few things, it's alright" Jenny said but Derrick didn't take no for an answer.

"Guys make way, they're joining us"

Eventually we made our way over and ended up sitting with them.

"Are you okay now, I heard you were sick earlier? Have your stomach calmed down?"

Derrick asked as he turned to look at Jenny.

Jessica scoffed and mouthed something before looking at Jenny. "I heard she's been throwing up frequently lately, are you sure it's not anything more than stomach bug?"

She maliciously said and looked at Jenny belly.

"Hey what are you talking about? That's rude"

"I'm just saying... We're all adult here" Jessica said trying to obviously refer to something else when Derrick looked at Jessica.

"That's enough Jessica, you're embarrassing yourself"

Jessica pouted and glared at Jenny maliciously, feeling angry as she clenched her fist under the table. It was no secret Jessica He liked Derrick Wang in the entire school, their families were quite close and they grew up together, but either Derrick was completely clueless about Jessica's feelings for him or he chose to be ignorant.

*******

I sat back on my bed and turned to face Jenny who was by her desk reading her notes.

"Do you think... That everyone will be shocked when you eventually start showing?" Jenny looked up from her book with a contemplative expression.

"To be honest, I just feel like it's no one business"

"True.. I mean after all you'll be married so... It's kinda legal and not something shameful"

I smiled. "Did you see Jessica's face today, God she was so furious when she was shut down by Derrick every single time she tried to retort against you, serves her right hehe"

"Jessica has never liked me since we started going to school here, it's not a new thing, I'm not bothered as long as she doesn't do anything extreme" Jenny said with a simple shrug.

"Well if you ask me she's just jealous because her title as school campus belle is being threatened by you, if you ask me I think you're really beautiful, if you only started dressing up nicely, she wouldn't stand a chance, besides I think another reason is because Derrick likes you"

"What? He does?" Jenny's eyes widened, stunned.

"Of course you're clueless" I rolled my eyes in fake annoyance.

"Anyways that's story for another time, right now you need to sleep, your wedding is tomorrow and even if you're not excited about it, I am for you"..

"That's true, Uhm... Do you think I should tell my mom... I mean Johnny's mom, if you think about, Mrs Choi is still the woman who raised me".

"No! Have you forgotten what she did the last time you went back there and told her that you only came to visit? She asked the servant to splash you cold water, your lucky you didn't fall sick, no way, that woman is bad luck!" I felt annoyed just thinking about it.

"Now I'm in a really bad mood" I heard a chuckle and snort and looked up glaring at her playfully.

"Oh so now you're laughing at me?! Maybe I should beat you up"

"You just... Look like a chipmunk like that, that's why, alright you're right, I should really just move on, but then I'm going to tell Johnny".

"Yeah that's acceptable, he's your brother, now time to get to bed bride to be".

"Let me just finish this page, I have test soon" I got down from the bed and headed off to the bathroom.

"You know I'm already missing you, if you move out, I'd have to find a house outside anyway, can't stay here alone"

"I can stay if you're...".

"No way, you're going to be living with Mr Li now, that's your husband, and you have to learn to adapt, at least his grandmother like you so... You can relax as long as you're there and if there's anything wrong, don't forget to tell me, I'll definitely come running"

"Yeah of course, I know I still have you"

I watched her gently placed her hand on her belly subconsciously and I smiled as I entered the bathroom and closed the door.
