My Killer Android Nanny Chapter 2

I had not forgotten anything about what Martin had said. However, I could barely recognize my husband standing before me anymore.

Normally, If I so much as pouted, he would wonder what he had done wrong. But now, he could stand by while an android nanny hurt me.

Only then did he seem to notice the blisters on my face. He looked away and said, "Why haven't you treated your face yet? Are you waiting for me to apply the medicine for you?

"It was bad enough that you stopped caring about your appearance while you were pregnant, you still don't care now that you've already had the baby. How am I supposed to face anyone?

"Ruby can come with me to tomorrow's business meeting."

Martin made no attempt to hide the disgust in his eyes, and I could feel my chest tighten.

My health had never been great, and I had been terrified of having a baby. Martin promised that no matter how much I changed, he would stay by my side forever. That promise was what gave me the courage to have a baby.

To have this baby, I endured excruciating labor, an episiotomy, changes to my body, and even being unable to control my bladder occasionally. Whenever things got tough, I reminded myself how badly Martin had wanted a baby with me.

I went through it all, and all I got was his disgust. Every promise he had ever made had become a knife pointed at me.

I could not help but sob and tremble. "If you despise me that much, then let's get a divorce. You can spend the rest of your life with Ruby!"

The living room fell silent as soon as I spoke my mind.

Shock and panic appeared on Martin's face, but Ruby stepped between us with a defiant look. "Madam, don't use me to make Sir jealous. You don't need to humiliate us like this!"

Martin recovered and gave a cold laugh as Ruby finished speaking. "Celia, stop causing any trouble. If you keep this up, I won't step in when your family's company goes bankrupt and gets bought out."

I smiled bitterly. He used to say my parents were his parents too and that he would do whatever it took to help with the company. Now he was using it to threaten me.

My eyes turned red as I remembered what happened last night. "Then tell me what you did with her last night. Say it! Did you really think I didn't know?"

Martin froze and looked away. "She was giving me last month's work report. That's all. She's an android, Celia. Can you stop being so suspicious?"

Ruby spoke calmly. "Sir, it's normal for women to become hysterical after giving birth. I'm detecting significant emotional instability in her now. She should rest quietly in her room."

Martin nodded, but I could not read the look in his eyes.

Suddenly, Samson started crying in the nursery. Ruby gave me a meaningful look and headed straight for the room.

I remembered what Ruby had complained about last night and grabbed Martin's hand in terror. "No! She'll hurt him!"

"She's been professionally trained. She knows how to care for a baby better than anyone," Martin said nonchalantly.

However, the crying grew louder. Ignoring the pain in my face and the tearing pain between my legs, I ran to the nursery.

The sight nearly made me faint. Ruby had forced Samson's mouth wide open and was pouring water from a cup into it. White pills were even dissolving inside.

I lunged at her, but she dodged me and smiled. "Why are you so stressed out? They're only sleeping pills. Sir has approved it. This little thing is far too noisy."

Her words stunned me. This was Martin's own son! How could he have allowed Ruby to give him sleeping pills?!

I ignored her and examined Samson whom I cradled in my arms. His breathing was getting harder and his cries had grown hoarse. I gently patted his back, then realized how hot he was. "He has a fever! Out of my way! I'm taking him to the hospital!"

However, Ruby blocked me and stood at the doorway.

Martin came over with a frown at this time. "What now?"

I cried, "Ruby gave him sleeping pills! Did you know about this?! How could you let her do that?! He has a fever and I'm taking him to the hospital right now!"
