Chapter 92 I Won't Disgrace You
Seeing Shayla's resentful face, Bethany felt disappointed and asked, "Why? Are you unhappy to sleep
with me?"
"I am happy to be with you. But we're together at home every day. It's a rare opportunity tonight!
Watching the stars is romantic. You should do it with your boyfriend instead of your daughter. What a
waste!"
Bethany was both helpless and amused to hear her words, wondering why the two heartless brats Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
wanted her to marry Raymond so much.
"Alas, the stars become less beautiful when the wrong person is beside me. Beth, take your time to
appreciate the stars. I'm going to sleep."
Then, Shayla yawned, got into the bed, and soon fell asleep.
Bethany helplessly shook her head, lay down, and looked at the stars in the sky, thinking they were
beautiful.
Suddenly, Raymond's words popped into her mind. He had said he wanted her.
Pondering for a while, she found he had both good family background and ability. Although he was
bad-tempered, he was always patient with her. So, she felt flustered and torn, suspecting she was
splitting hairs. Maybe it was time to forget about the past and start a new life.
Thinking about these things, she lost sleep and filled her head with nonsense all night.
Because Shayla had gone to bed early, she woke up early in the morning. When they washed up and
left the room, a waiter respectfully said, "Mrs. Zavala, breakfast is ready. This way, please."
Then, he led the way.
Seeing them, Damion immediately shouted, "Beth, Shayla!"
They were in a private room in the restaurant, and the environment was good.
Raising her eyes, Bethany saw Raymond sitting at the dining table. He was in a good state at any time.
But she looked a little bit haggard because she had not slept last night.
Bethany sat opposite him and politely said, "Good morning."
"Good morning.," Raymond replied
Then, he asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
Shayla interrupted, "No! Beth was awake when I went to bed last night. When I woke up this morning,
she was lying with her clothes on and her eyes open. I don't think she slept last night."
Bethany immediately showed a guilty look and said, "Shayla, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Shayla retorted, "I'm not talking nonsense! It's logical reasoning. Look at the black circles under your
eyes! I know you did not sleep last night. Aren't you going to get married soon? Why are you so shy? If
you two had slept together, you would have slept very well. But you..."
"Shayla Hamilton, I will get angry if you continue speaking such words!"
Bethany barely called Shayla by her full name, so the latter immediately shut up and covered her
mouth with both hands in fright.
When Bethany unintentionally glanced at Raymond, she saw his wicked smile. So, she quickly lowered
her head in embarrassment.
Damion continued to try to fix them up, saying, "Daddy, this villa is nice! Can we stay here for a few
more days?"
Shayla quickly echoed, "Yeah! We won't go to school until the day after tomorrow. We can stay here for
two more days!"
Raymond apologetically smiled, "I'm sorry. But I must go to the company for business today."
There would be an opening banquet tomorrow night, so he had a lot of work to do today.
"But don't feel disappointed. We will have many such opportunities in the future. I will often take you out
on weekends and holidays."
Shayla immediately cheered, "You're the best!"
Bethany had been eating with her head down all the time because she was too embarrassed to look up
or say anything.
After breakfast, they went down the mountain. Raymond drove, Bethany sat in the passenger seat, and
the two children were in the backseat.
Bethany was ashamed to look at Raymond because the black circles under her eyes proved she had
lost sleep last night. After he started the car, she kept looking out of the window.
When he turned on the stereo in the car, Taylor Swift's Enchanted slowly came out.
The song was soft, and the rhythm was a bit slow. It was like a cup of strong coffee, lingering in her ear
for a long time.
Hey, it was enchanted to meet you,
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you.
Listening to the song now, she had a strange feeling. She did not know if Raymond liked her but was
sure he wanted to conquer and marry her.
"Bethany."
He called her name while she was in a daze.
"Yes?"
She quickly returned to her senses, looked at him, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"A lot of celebrities will attend the banquet tomorrow night. It will be the first time you show up in public
as my fiancée. I hope you can have a better state than now."
Hearing this, Bethany subconsciously touched her face. With the dark circles under her eyes, she must
look ugly now.
"I see! Don't worry! I won't disgrace you."
"I hope so," Raymond said.
The two kids had fallen asleep in the backseat. When Raymond focused on driving, they didn't
communicate anything more, and Bethany continued to look out of the window.
After a long time, they arrived at her home. Before she got out of the car, Raymond said, "Go to bed
early tonight. I will come to pick you up tomorrow afternoon."
Bethany nodded, "Okay."
"Tyrone and Shayla, obediently go home with your mommy. I need to go to work now."
Shayla caringly said, "Okay! Daddy, take care of your health."
As soon as they returned home, Ainsley hurried over and said, "Lisa, a guest has been waiting for you
for a long time."
A guest? Who would come to visit her so early in the morning?
Bethany was startled to see Karter get up from the sofa and walk over. Damion who hadn't entered the
door was even more startled, wondering why his grandfather had come.
"Shayla, let's go to the playground downstairs."
Damion immediately pulled Shayla into the elevator at lightning speed. Fortunately, Karter did not
notice him.
"Mr. Shepard?"
Bethany couldn't help feeling scared to see him.
Karter politely said, "I'm sorry to disturb you early in the morning."
Hearing this, she said, "If you had called me in advance, you would not have waited for so long."
"It was my fault. But I didn't expect you to be outside early in the morning."
The implication was obvious, so she suspected he knew she had been with Raymond last night.
