Bride of Mr.Billion

Chapter 73

Bella‘s POV: I listened to Miranda, “Oh, Mr. Wharton, it‘s very cold at night. You definitely won‘t be able to sleep well in the car. Where‘s Connor?” “Today is the weekend. I gave Connor a holiday.” said Herbert. “What? You drove here in person?” “Miranda, go and rest. I‘ll be back tomorrow morning.” With these words, he walked out of the villa. Then I heard Miranda talking to herself. “Mr. Wharton is usually very fierce to his wife, but in fact, he can‘t let go of her.” Listening to these words, I felt very uncomfortable. Why was he here so late at night? Did he want to ask me about my situation? But it was a matter that can be solved by a phone call. Why did he run hundreds of kilometers back and forth? And why did he have to sleep in a car instead of staying in the warm villa? I suddenly remembered the last time I said that if he lived here, I could not fall asleep? Did he take my casual words seriously? And what did Miranda mean just now? Did he care about me in his heart? But what was the relationship between him and Caroline? Wasn‘t he in love with Caroline? Why did he spend so much time on me?” For a moment, my heart was in a mess, and my mood was very complicated. I didn‘t know how long I stood there, and my body became a little cold. Then I remembered to go into the room. Lying in bed in the middle of the night, I didn‘t fall asleep. Many things were too contradictory. If he really cared about me. Why did he pester Caroline and go to Europe for her? But if he didn‘t care about me? Why did he do those things? I thought about it for a long time. Finally, I came up with a conclusion. Herbert cared about the child in my belly. After all, this was his first child. He must want me to give birth to his child safely. Except for this conclusion, I couldn‘t think of any other possibility. But if it was really for this reason, he came to see me in the middle of the night. My mood became depressed, because this made me realize that there was only this child left in the connection between us. The next morning, I overheard that Miranda made breakfast and sent it out of the villa. I knew that it must have been sent to Herbert.

It wasn‘t until Miranda came back with a lunch box that I knew he had left, so I went downstairs for breakfast

“Mrs. Wharton, you‘re up so early today?” Miranda asked in a surprised tone. “Oh, I had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, so I couldn‘t sleep,” I said. “At this time, it will indeed be very difficult. There is still half a month before your expected date of delivery. You have to be more careful. Yesterday, Mr. Wharton said that he would send you back two weeks in advance to prepare for delivery!” Miranda laughed.

“Have you seen him?” I asked on purpose.

“Oh... no, how could I have seen Mr. Wharton? He didn‘t come. It was Mr. Wharton who called me yesterday to ask about your situation.” Miranda sounded a little nervous.

I didn‘t expose Miranda. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

At this time, the walkie–talkie at the gate suddenly rang. The walkie–talkie was connected to the security guard at the gate. If there was anything wrong outside, the security guard could directly inform us with the walkie–talkie. Miranda went to pick up the walkie–talkie, and the voice of a security guard came from inside. “Miranda, Miss Ewell has come to visit Mrs. Wharton. She said that it was an order from Mr. Wharton.”

Hearing this, I was stunned. Caroline? What did she come here for? Did Herbert order her to come here? If it weren‘t for the fact that he told her that I lived here, she wouldn‘t have been able to find me. “Mrs. Wharton, do you want to see her?” Miranda asked.

“Herbert asked her to come. How can I not see her?” I asked Miranda.

Miranda didn‘t answer me. She just went to open the door.

I also wanted to hear what Caroline wanted to say to me. In fact, I was a little curious. Had she been with Herbert in the past few months?

Then she must be very upset. After all, a few months had passed, and Herbert still hadn‘t gotten a divorce with me. A few minutes later, Miranda led her into the villa. I sat on the sofa, watching her smile at me. Then she sat down on a sofa opposite me. I took a look at the thing in Miranda‘s hand, and then looked at Caroline. Caroline said with a smile, “I bought some clothes for the baby. I don‘t know if it‘s a boy or a girl, so I chose the color that both boys and girls can wear.”

There wasn‘t the slightest bit of awkwardness in her tone when she spoke these words, and it sounded as if she was very intimate with my child?

This made me very uncomfortable. So, the next moment, I said to Miranda, “Miranda, why haven‘t you poured coffee for the guest yet?” “Yes, I was negligent.” Miranda quickly put down the things and turned to the kitchen. My meaning was very clear. This was the villa of Herbert, and I was the hostess of this villa, No matter what, Caroline was a guest. I didn‘t want her to take herself too seriously. She had nothing to do with the baby in my belly. Caroline looked up at the villa and suddenly said with a smile, “This villa is worse than Herbert‘s

78510 seaside villa. In the past, he and I went there for several days off.” It was obvious that Caroline‘s words were provocative. I couldn‘t be bothered to pay attention to her now, so I looked directly at the baby clothes on the table and said, “I have already prepared the baby‘s clothes and supplies. Thank you for your kindness. You‘d better take them back!” Caroline laughed even more. “Is that so? If I had known earlier, I wouldn‘t have spent so much effort to bring it here. Anyway, I can use these clothes when I take care of my baby in the future.” What did Caroline mean by that? “What do you mean by that? I don‘t need you to take care of my baby!” I snapped.

“You don‘t know yet? Hasn‘t Herbert told you yet?” Caroline was surprised.

“What do you want to say?” I asked impatiently. I knew that Caroline must be full of malice today, but I didn‘t know what she wanted to do. Did she come to humiliate me?

I didn‘t think that was the only reason. After all, it was useless to humiliate me.

The next moment, Caroline said, “Since Herbert hasn‘t told you yet, I‘ll tell you. After you give birth to the child, he will divorce you. After he marries me, I will naturally be the mother of this child. I will definitely take care of him.”

I was instantly enraged by her words. I pointed at her and said angrily, “Don‘t even think about stealing my child!” “This is the decision of Herbert. You must listen to him.” said Caroline. I couldn‘t calm down at all. I was wrapped in anger. “Don‘t use Herbert to oppress me. Even if I divorce him, I won‘t give him the child.”

Caroline suddenly rose to her feet as well. “Bella, a noble family like the Wharton Family will never allow their bloodline to be left wandering outside. Given the influence of Herbert, will he let you take the child away? Stop dreaming! You should kneel down and beg me right now. Perhaps I‘ll feel sorry for you. In the future, when I take care of your child, I might be able to let you meet him once or twice. If you yell at me again, don‘t even dream of seeing your child in the future!”
