Chapter 64
It’s getting cold. When the first snow fell, my baby was five months old.
Whitney was very nervous about grandson. Rudolf has been back home less and less. I can hear the condition of Lorna from Whitney every now and then.
Eugene went out early and came back late every day. Although I lived in the same room with him, I didn’t get up yet every time. He had left and I had fallen asleep before he came back. The two seldom met each other.
A few days later, my mother-in-law accompanied me to finish the prenatal checkups. The doctor told me to exercise a little, which is helpful for the future delivery.
So after we came out of the hospital, we decided to go shopping and choose some baby products.
I know that Whitney has been in low spirits recently because of Rudolf.
Eugene was too busy to accompany
Now she can only focus on the baby in my belly, as if the baby has become her only spiritual sustenance.
The driver sent us to the gate of the shopping mall. The two of us got out of the car and walked inside.
The baby products are on the four floor of the shopping mall. We took the elevator to the four floor directly. The moment the elevator door opened, two familiar figures appeared in front of us. When I saw the two people in front of me, I was stunned and didn’t know what to do.
Originally, Lorna was holding Rudolf’s arm and leaning on his shoulder, looking very happy. But when she saw us, she was also shocked. Almost reflexively, she hid behind Rudolf.
Looking at the shameless couple in front, Whitney’s face turned green with anger. She rushed forward and slapped Rudolf in the face.
With a loud sound, Rudolf’s face was slapped to one side. The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.
“Rudolf, I didn’t expect you to abandon your wife for such a bitch!” Pointing at the Lorna hiding behind Rudolf, Whitney cursed angrily.
Rudolf was stunned by the slap. When he realized what had happened, his face turned pale. He glared at Whitney with his turbid eyes and said, “Whitney, if you go crazy, don’t do it outside. You are shameless. I want more.”
“Shame on you? Do you really want it?” Whitney was almost driven mad. She walked up to Rudolf and pulled out the Lorna hidden behind him. “You are really willing to give up everything for this tramp.”
Seeing that the arm of Lorna was grabbed by Whitney, Rudolf immediately stepped forward and separated the two of them. He scolded Whitney in a rough voice, “enough. Let’s talk about it when we go home. Don’t make trouble here.”
“What? Are you afraid now? Are you afraid that I will spread your scandal to the public? Are you afraid that I will damage your image?” Whitney sneered.
I saw that Whitney was so agitated that people began to come here to watch. I didn’t want Whitney to do something shameful because of a sudden impulse, so I immediately walked up to her and reminded her, “Mom, there are many people watching us now. Let’s go back first. If there is anything, go back and make it clear.”
“What? Are you on their side now?” She turned to look at me and said angrily, “I forgot that this tramp is your sister. Since they can be together, you must have made a lot of contributions.”
What I feared most finally happened.
I was in a hurry to explain, but Lorna rushed up and held my arm. “Sister, please persuade her not to make trouble here. It’s so embarrassing.”
“Let me go. Who is your sister?” I knew that Lorna did it on purpose. Feeling disgusted, I shook off her hand.
However, Lorna seemed to have expected this. She even pushed me hard and directly pushed me to the ground.
The first person to react was Whitney. After all, she was nervous about her grandson. She quickly squatted down to look at me lying on the ground.
I just felt a sharp pain in the back of my waist when I hit the ground, and I didn’t dare to move.
“Leanna, how are you? Do you have a stomachache?” Whitney held my head and asked excitedly.
“Mom, help the car. Hurry up…” I was afraid that the baby in my belly would be in danger, so I tried to hold back the panic and reminded her.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
She hurriedly took out her phone from her bag and dialed the number of the ambulance.
When she called the ambulance, she immediately turned around and glared at Lorna. “Listen to me. If anything happens to the baby in Leanna’s belly, I will never let you go.”
Rudolf left with her.
When the ambulance arrived, only Whitney accompanied me to the hospital.
When I was pushed out of the emergency room, Eugene had already arrived at the hospital.
As soon as the doctor came out, Whitney rushed up and asked, “doctor, how is the baby? Is it all right?”
“My ladyship, don’t worry. The baby is five months old and it’s very stable. If this happens in the first three months, I’m afraid it will be dangerous. But you must be careful in the future. Pregnant women fall is not a joke. Your family must be very careful when taking care.” The doctor said a few words and asked the nurse to take me to the ward.
Eugene’s POV
Looking at Leanna, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, I felt heavy in my heart.
I accompanied her to the ward. The nurse gave her an injection and let her rest. Then I pulled her to the reception room outside the ward and asked, “what happened? Why did Leanna fall?”
Mother answered perfunctorily, “nothing. I just fell down by accident.”
“Really?” I know how nervous Leanna and her parents are. They will never let such an accident happen.
“Eugene, don’t ask anymore. Fortunately, the baby is fine now. I’ll ask her to be careful in the future.”
“Mom, are you hiding something from me?” I guessed that mother didn’t want me to know the truth.
“No… I didn’t hide anything from you.” She lowered her head to avoid my eyes.
I can tell that mother’s face doesn’t seem to be fine, especially her eyes are red. Obviously, she has been wronged.
“Did dad do something wrong to you?” Except for father, I can’t think of a second person who can make my mother suffer and defend in any way.
What’s more, I know something about father’s affairs
Mother was a little surprised, but soon she shook her head. “No… don’t guess. How can your father betray me? He has been outside for a long time. How can I take it to heart?”
“Well, if you don’t want to tell me, I won’t ask anymore. You are also frightened by Leanna today. Go back and have a rest now. I can take care of her here.” Seeing that my mother was unwilling to tell the truth, I didn’t ask any more but persuaded her.
After sending her home, I asked Petra to make soup and send Leanna to the hospital.
When I got back to the hospital, Leanna had woken up after the injection.
“You’re awake. Sit up and have some soup. Mom asked Petra to cook it for you.” As I spoke, I poured a bowl of soup from the heat preservation cup and handed it to her.
She sat up with her hands supporting her body. She looked at the soup in front and asked in disbelief, “was it really mom who asked her to cook for me? Wasn’t mom angry with me?”
“What? Should she be angry with you?” I sensed that there was something hidden in her words, so I asked immediately.
She shook her head, took the bowl and drank the soup.
I watched her finish a bowl of soup quietly and said slowly, “how did you fall down today?”
She was not good at lying. She looked at me and said perfunctorily, “I… I fell accidentally…”
“Did you fall by accident?” I sneered, “it seems that you all treat me as a fool. Do you want me to find out what happened today?”
As soon as I heard that he was going to find someone to investigate, I immediately said, “don’t… you… I… this matter is very complicated. Mom and I don’t want to hide it from you on purpose, but… We think it’s better that you don’t know…”
“It seems that something is wrong with dad outside.” I interrupted her.
Hearing this, she suddenly looked up at me and asked, “how did you know?”
“Who is that woman?” I didn’t answer her question, but asked in reply.
She lowered her head in silence.
“Okay, I’ll have someone look into it!” Then I turned around and was about to leave.
She hurriedly stopped him, “wait a minute… I… I’ll tell you everything…”
I stopped and sat back on the edge of the bed, staring at her, waiting for her to tell me the truth.
She took a deep breath and said carefully, “Dad did have another woman outside. Because of this matter, he has been at odds with mom recently. You have been too busy these days. You go out early and come back late every day, and you don’t have time to care about mom…”
“Who is that woman?” Who on earth is the woman who can make father who has been hanging out with women so fond of her and even fall out with his original wife? I’m curious.
“You know that man. It’s… it’s…”
Seeing her hesitation, I frowned and asked, “who is it?”
“Lorna.”
“Lorna? It’s her!”
“I don’t know how they got together, but I know that they have been together for a period of time. I was very hesitant before and didn’t know if I should tell mom about it, but I was afraid that she would be sad. Moreover, I didn’t believe that Lorna could stay with dad for a long time, so I didn’t say anything. Later mom knew this matter and asked me to find out who is the mistress between her and dad. Although I know But I didn’t dare to tell her the answer, “she explained slowly,” I didn’t expect that when I went shopping with my mother today, I met her and father shopping for baby products. My mother was very angry at that time, so she quarreled with father. I wanted to go up to mediate, but I was pushed by Lorna accidentally and fell… ”
“Lorna is also pregnant?” I picked out a very important piece of information from Leanna’s last sentence.
She was stunned and realized that she had spilled the beans. She lowered her head immediately.
Knowing that I didn’t hear it wrong, my heart contracted and fell forward.
Leanna’s POV
I thought he had a heart attack, so I was so scared that I lifted the quilt and got out of bed. I reached out and held his shoulder and back. “What’s wrong, Eugene? Did you have a heart attack? Where is the medicine?”
He lay prone on the bed and rested for half a minute. Then he slowly raised his head and said with a fierce look, “I see. I said how he would fall out with Mother for a woman. It turns out that he even has a bastard.”
“Eugene… You…” his face was as cold as ice.
“Leanna, don’t worry. You won’t fall for nothing today. I will make the person who hurt you pay a heavy price.” As he spoke, he reached out and held my hand tightly.
Hearing his words, I didn’t feel any joy of revenge. There was only endless fear deep in my heart.
I don’t know how Eugene will take revenge on Lorna, but I can basically predict what will happen to Lorna next
