My Husband Regretted Saving His Assistant and Letting Me DrownChapter 1
The company held a team-building event at the seaside. Dakota Morrone, my husband's assistant, knew I was pregnant and couldn't do intense activities, but she still insisted I join the jet ski ride.
I clearly refused, but my husband, Milo Dornan, gave me a cold look and said I was killing the mood and should leave. The atmosphere instantly turned heavy, and my colleagues looked at me as if I had done something terrible.
"Just because you're pregnant, you think you're a princess?" Milo's voice was so cold it felt like he was a stranger. "Which woman can't get pregnant?"
Ever since Dakota joined as his assistant, the man who once promised to protect me forever had changed.
"Milo, my body really isn't fit for this."
"If I say you can do it, then you can. If you won't play, then we'll get a divorce." His words were firm and final.

Dakota quickly spoke up. "Milo, she's pregnant. It was my thoughtlessness. Please don't divorce her over such a small matter. What would people in the company think of me?"
