Chapter 311 After getting into the car, I leaned back in the seat and let out a sigh of relief. "I'll get tortured to death by this little thing in my belly even before the due date." Theo buckled his seatbelt and reached out his hand to caress my face. "You poor thing." I slightly rubbed his hand with my face. "You should rewardwell when the tcomes." "Sure." Theo looked like he was about to spoil me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI did not know why but my mind suddenly thought of those words Cindy said earlier at the entrance of the dining room. I panicked a little. "Theo, you must protect our child." Seeing that I looked a bit off, Theo's brows furrowed into a tight frown. He asked out of worry, "Are you okay?" "It's n-nothing." Maybe I was overthinking.
Theo saw that my face had turned a little pale. He sighed lightly, unbuckled his seat belt, and pulledinto a hug. "Don't worry, I'll protect you and our child well." I nodded lightly and buried my head in his embrace.
We held each other for a few minutes. Theo then let go ofand started the car. "Cindy's birthday celebration is in a few days. You'll have to cooperate withand reject the invitation." "Why not?" I asked with one brow raised.
Theo smiled. "You're about to go into labor. I need to be by your side at all times apart from my working hours. Otherwise, I'll be worried about you." I scoffed. "It's more than half a month until the due date. You don't have to be so excited." "No." Theo insisted. "I'm still worried." No one could persuade him when he was being stubborn, so I did not say anything.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI could not pretend that I had not heard what Cindy said earlier. In my eyes, she was someone who would d o whatever it took to achieve her goal.
What if she did something then? What should I do? The more I thought about it, the more I panicked. I took my phone out of my pocket and called Jerome.
The call was answered in an instant, but his voice sounded hoarse. It was as if he was still asleep." Honey, I stayed up all night and day. I just fell asleep not long ago." "Sorry." I felt very apologetic and softened my voice. "I had no idea. You should continue sleeping. I'll call you again tomorrow when you wake up." "It's fine." Jerlet out a loud yawn. "Tellwhat's the matter. Otherwise, I might not be able to fall asleep." I hesitated for a moment and said, "My due date is near and I'm feeling really panicky because of something. You understand Cecilia's situation too. Can you spare a few days to accompany me?" "This is what it's about?" Jerhummed softly." Don't worry, I'll accompany you even if you didn't tellto. Otherwise, why do you think I work my tail off every day?" I could not help but feel touched. "When the baby is born, I promise I'll reward you well. There's still more than half a month until the due date. Don't overwork yourself. I'll feel bad if you exhaust yourself over this." "Are you treatingas a stranger by saying these things?" Jerlaughed as he said, "Don't worry. Everything's well." I laughed along as well. "One more thing, I haven't been able to contact Cecilia recently."
"You don't have to worry about her. She's in the countryside. I managed to call her before this. Someone will contactif something happens to her." Jerome's words gaverelief.
Everything had already been said and I did not want to take up too much of his resting time. We talked for a while before ending the call. Theo was listening to the conversation besidethe whole time. He chuckled as he said, "Seems like you didn't make a friend like that for nothing." I nodded in agreement. "He's a very good friend."
When the car reached the villa, I was so sleepy to the point that I could not even open my eyes. Theo, carriedto the bedroom. I was too lazy to even bother to wash up, so Theo got a towel and helpedwipe my face. I fell asleep a few minutes later.
