She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment novel Chapter 1

“Miss Smith, you’re pregnant.”

The doctor’s words were like a thunderclap, making the sleepy Nora Smith’s eyes widen suddenly. 

“… What?” 

How could this be?! 

Although she was nineteen years old, she had never been intimate with anyone of the opposite sex!

However, the doctor handed her the medical report. 

“You’re already in your fourth month of pregnancy. You’re not in good health, so you won’t be able to surgically induce labor. You can only choose to give birth to the child.” 

Nora returned home in a daze. After Nora’s father gave her a stern scolding, he searched the surveillance cameras, only to find that four months ago, she was indeed staying at home obediently due to poor health, and hadn’t gone out at all! 

However, outsiders didn’t believe it. Everyone secretly mocked her: 

“Her belly is already so big, yet she’s still giving excuses and saying that she didn’t stray with some man. The Grays are so pitiful. Why do they have to be engaged to such a person?!” 

“She’s fat and ugly from the start, and neither is her family background very good. It was a few lifetimes’ worth of blessings that she could climb the social ladder by having a connection with the Grays. Now that she’s gotten herself pregnant before the wedding, surely the Grays will break off the engagement, right?”

Amid all the speculations, Anthony Gray paid the Smiths a visit.

At that time, Nora’s belly was already bulging. At eight months of pregnancy, her belly was big enough to cover her toes.

In the study, Nora’s father asked cautiously, “Anthony, are you thinking of breaking off the engagement?”

Anthony gave an unexpected answer: “…No, my grandfather refuses to!”

The Grays were a top-class rich and powerful family while they, the Smiths, were just middle-class. Even if they took the opportunity to break off the engagement, no one would be able to criticize the Grays for it. By refusing to break off the engagement, what were they after?

The more Anthony thought about it, the angrier he became. He cursed irritably, “The sight of her pig-like face already disgusted me from the start, and now she’s even pregnant with some guy’s child. Why should I be the hero to take over the responsibility?”

Nora’s father immediately said, “Don’t worry, Anthony. I’ll send the baby away immediately after she gives birth!”

Nora, who had kept quiet this whole time, suddenly raised her head.

“No.”

In the past few months, she had gone from hesitating to being at a loss, and then to a state of reluctantly accepting reality. She could feel her child’s heartbeat more and more clearly as each day passed, and she had already long since developed feelings for it. 

The child was innocent. They mustn’t abandon it. 

She wanted an annulment! 

But it was at this exact moment that she suddenly felt waves of pain and convulsions in her abdomen. This… She was about to go into labor!!

Five years later.

“Mommy, wake up. The plane is taxiing.”

The crisp voice made Nora open her eyes, upon which she immediately saw a delicate, adorable, and young face.

Cherry Smith’s big grape-like eyes blinked, and she rested her chin on her hands. “Mommy, did we come back to the States this time to look for Daddy?”

Nora stretched and sat up lazily in her comfortable business-class seat. She said lightly, “You don’t have a father.”

Cherry sighed like an adult. “I’m not a three-year-old anymore. I’m not going to believe your nonsense. I don’t have a father? Surely I couldn’t have just popped out of a rock, right?”

“…” 

Nora didn’t reply, as she tied up her shoulder-length hair. Her fair skin and sharp, pert nose, coupled with her rosy lips and graceful figure, made her a beautiful sight on the plane. 

Cherry continued to mumble dissatisfiedly, “If it isn’t to look for Daddy, then is it to find my elder brother?” 

Elder brother… 

She was back in the States to look for her son. She mustn’t cause any complications. 

As she approached the exit, Nora suddenly spotted a familiar figure in the arrival hall in front. She replied perfunctorily, “I’m not blessed enough to enjoy such beauty.” 

After hanging up, she tossed the phone into her pocket and cast her eyes downward coldly. 

She didn’t expect to see an old acquaintance so soon. 

A man stood at a prominent spot at the exit of the airport. He was wearing a suit and looked quite bright and cheerful. He looked a little more mature than how he had been five years ago—he turned out to be her fiancé, Anthony Gray. 

With a pick-up placard in his hand, he stood there impatiently and grumbled, “When exactly is that damned fatty coming out?” 

Behind him, his butler said, “Mr. Gray, please be patient. The old sir has specially instructed you to refrain from making things too ugly even if you are calling off the engagement.” 

Anthony frowned. He looked a little irritated. “Patience? Isn’t it more like disgust? She was so fat previously; and, she must be even fatter after she gave birth. She probably wants to save the engagement even more strongly now, right? Why am I so unlucky to become entangled with someone like that?!”  

His words reached Nora’s ears, but she didn’t bat even an eyelid. 

In the past five years, she had repeatedly brought up her desire to break off the engagement. However, neither the Smiths nor the Grays had agreed. Who exactly was entangling with whom? 

She couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to that man and intended to leave immediately with Cherry. 

After grumbling, Anthony turned—and his eyes lit up! 

The beautiful woman, who was the first to walk out of the airport, was gorgeous and unbelievably stunning. It was as if the entire airport had lit up a few notches brighter the moment she appeared. 

Seeing the woman getting closer and closer, Anthony straightened his back and neatened his luxury suit. Then, he smiled and asked confidently, “Hi beautiful, can I ask your name?” 

He was the exact picture of a male peacock with its train spread open. 

Nora paused and looked at him coolly. 

“Nora. Smith.”
