Chapter 585 Hiding Away with the Child
Chapter 585: Chapter 585 Hiding Away with the Child
Yvette’s weakness was that she cared very much about the feelings of those who were good to her. Since Stephen said so, she couldn’t refuse him.
After what he said, if she refused again, it would seem that she was too heartless, so she nodded and did not speak, which meant that she agreed with him.
After all, she had no time to think about anything else during the production period.
In the park, there were people selling ice cream. Yvette stared at the ice cream for a while.
Stephen seemed to have sensed something. Although Iceland island was cold, he would feel hot and dry after being cold for a long time, so the ice cream sold well.
Now that Yvette was approaching the due date, there was basically no eating taboos.
Stephen asked her, "Do you want to eat?"
Upon hearing this, her eyes lit up. The ice cream was different from the domestic ice cream. It was covered with her favorite vanilla sauce.
She had tasted the vanilla sauce before and it tasted particularly good.
She hadn’t eaten ice cream since she got pregnant. She had been hungry for more than eight months.
But she was still not sure. "Can I?"
She asked if it was okay, but her eyes were full of eagerness. Her expression showed that she was waiting for him to say yes.
There was probably no man who wouldn’t be tempted by her expression.
Stephen looked at her intently and said, "The doctor said that you don’t have eating taboos now. If you want to eat, you can eat a little. Otherwise, you won’t be able to eat when you give birth."
Women in Iceland did not usually have confinement, but Yvette’s constitution must be in accordance with the rules of New York.
"I’m going to buy you a smaller one," Stephen said.
It had to be said that after hearing what he said, she felt less guilty.
Stephen pulled her to a bench on the side, took out a handkerchief, and spread it on it. He smiled and said, "Sit down and wait for me."
There were a lot of people waiting in line at the ice cream shop. He was afraid that someone would bump into her.
Stephen walked over. He never liked privileges, so he followed others and waited.
Yvette was sitting on a bench. The weather was good today, and the sun was shining brightly.
She narrowed her eyes, basked in the sun, and waited for the ice cream she had been longing for.
But after a while, the sun was covered by a shadow.
Yvette wondered if the weather had changed.
She opened her eyes and saw a man in an exquisite and high-end suit standing in front of her, blocking the sun.
She didn’t expect to meet her ex-husband in a park, and she was a little unkempt today because of her pregnancy.
After all, Stephen often met her and did not care about her dressing.
So the first thought that came to her mind was whether she was sloppy or not.
After all, the night before yesterday, because she had to go out for dinner, she had chosen a dress that made her look better.
However, Lance didn’t expect this. He just felt that she didn’t look very good and that her cheeks weren’t ruddy enough. She wasn’t like those pregnant women he had seen who were white and fat.
Juliette had gained a lot of weight back then, but Yvette seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and her chin had become sharper.
Instinctively, he felt that she had definitely not been taken good care of in New York.
Marlon was injured, so he had no time to care about her.
"Mr. Wolseley, you’re blocking my sun."
Yvette couldn’t help but speak up.
The man had been standing still, blocking the sun and not saying a word. It was too strange.
Moreover, she felt that she was sloppy. What did this man mean by staring at her and asking her?
Of course, she couldn’t compare with him now. Even his hair looked exquisite.
Yvette thought about it. Was it because of what happened the night before yesterday that the man was unhappy?
To avoid being ridiculed, she pursed her lips and said, "The day before yesterday... I didn’t figure it out. I’m sorry, I apologize to you."
"Tha’s okay." As the man spoke, his body moved to give way to a ray of sunlight.
Only then did she see the black scepter in his hand. He had come out to work before his legs had recovered. He was working too hard.
However, the "All the way" project was a cooperation between the two countries, and people at his level were really needed to negotiate.
Yvette saw that there were several bodyguards behind him, and some seemed to be officials of Iceland. Presumably, this park was also a destination.
She didn’t say anything else. He had a companion now, and she didn’t want to have anything to do with someone who had a girlfriend, so she kept her mouth shut and distanced herself from him.
But not only did the man have no intention of leaving, but he also took the initiative to ask, "Are you used to eating here?"
"Yes, I’m fine," said Maria.
She didn’t want to chat with him, so she reminded him, "Mr. Wolseley, there are still people waiting for you behind."
How could he not tell that she was chasing him away? He was silent for a moment before saying, "Kali, she..."
"Mr. Wolseley..."
"Your business has nothing to do with me. You don’t need to tell me." Yvette interrupted.
She couldn’t explain it clearly. Anyway, she didn’t want to hear anything about his life, or maybe she was a little evasive.
At present, a basket of things was enough to bother her.
Yvette didn’t want to listen to him. Lance felt a little helpless, but he didn’t say anything more.
In the end, Stephen came over with ice cream.
Yvette’s eyes lit up.
Lance was stunned. That kind of expression...
Looking forward to the ice cream for a long time, she stood up to get it, regardless of whether Lance had left or not.
Stephen passed the ice cream to her before he could see the man’s face.
The next second, there was a loud smack.
The ice cream she had just received was knocked away.
In a daze, Yvette stared at the ice cream which was already pitifully small, but now only half was left.
Lance’s originally calm face was now filled with anger. "Who told you to give this to her?"
Stephen was stunned by the man’s question. After a pause, he said, "Yvette wants to eat it."
Lance said coldly, "Pregnant women can’t eat stimulating food. She ate seafood the night before yesterday and ate ice today. She doesn’t know what the consequences will be if they are mixed together. You don’t know either?"
It had been forty hours, and Stephen really didn’t think of this.
Moreover, he was not a doctor. He had consulted doctors about ice cream and seafood and they said she could eat a little.
However, when it came to Yvette’s health, he knew that this man was nervous. He said with a good temper, "It’s my fault. I’ll be more careful in the future."
However, Lance’s face couldn’t get any darker. He said coldly, "I hope you can be 100% focused. Don’t be so casual just because the child isn’t yours!"
No matter how good-tempered Stephen was, it was impossible for him to be amiable after being scolded like this.
"I didn’t think so," he argued.
Stephen said coldly, "That’d better be the case."
There was a hint of threat in his words.
Yvette was angry when she heard that.
What right did he have to do that?
He already had a girlfriend. Why was he still meddling in other people’s business?
Moreover, Stephen was not her real husband. It would be terrible to be said like this if he helped her out of kindness.
Not only was Lance’s tone aggressive, but his gaze was also very oppressive.
In comparison, she felt that this man was unreasonable.
"Crack, crack-"
While the two men were confronting each other, Yvette had already eaten the remaining half of the ice cream.
The two men looked at her and were stunned.
"Mr. Wolseley, I asked him to buy ice cream. You seem to have taught the wrong person a lesson," she said coldly.
Also, she didn’t expect him to know that she had eaten seafood.
"Are you following me? What right do you have to interfere in my affairs now? This is my child. Do you think I don’t cherish him?"
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, especially the ice cream just now. She didn’t even taste it because she was full of anger.
The man’s expression froze when he heard her words.
After a few seconds of silence, he said, "I’m sorry, I used the wrong tone."
When Stephen heard this, he glanced at the man and saw an indescribable, lonely, and self-abased expression flash across his face.
This was the first time he had seen such an expression on this high-spirited man’s face.
How should he put it? They were not a good match.
It should be said that they were not match at all.
Whether it was in his impression or on the financial newspaper, this man should not show such an expression.
In his heart, he treated this man in a different light.
After all, Lance’s actions were out of love for this child, so there was no need for him to care about his attitude.
After hearing his reminder, Stephen also felt that he was wrong, and he was a little worried.
Yvette was no longer in a good mood. She stretched out her hand towards Stephen and motioned for him to leave with her.
Stephen knew that she was doing it for the man in front of him to see. He hesitated for a moment and held her hand.
Then he nodded at Lance and was about to leave.
Lance’s expression was a little reluctant. No one knew what he was thinking, but he suddenly went to hold her hand.
She shook off his hand. The man couldn’t avoid it in time and staggered back a step.
After a while, she frowned and said, "Lance Wolseley, this is my child. Don’t even think about it. Otherwise, I’ll hide far away with my child. You’ll never be able to see him."
Lance was froze. What she said was quite intimidating.
He whispered, "I am not..."
"You’d better not."
Yvette was not in the mood to argue with him. She gave him the same warning.
This action was a little heart-wrenching. Lance clenched his fists so tightly that they turned white.
Yvette was not in the mood to observe him. She only felt uncomfortable in her heart.
She couldn’t be blamed for thinking too much about it. Hi actions made it seem like he really wanted to compete with her for custody.
She promised him that he could visit the children, but she didn’t promise him that he could take them away.
Yvette turned around and left. Stephen followed her. When he looked back, he saw the man squatting down very slowly and wrapping up some of the ice cream that had fallen to the ground with a handkerchief.
The bodyguard next to him wanted to do it for him, but he was refused.
He squatted on the ground and looked at the ice cream for a long time. No one knew what he was thinking.
...
Back in the car, Yvette had not calmed down yet, and her face was serious.
She looked very unhappy.
Stephen was driving and didn’t say anything. He let her calm down for a while.
After a while, she said, "Stephen, do you think he wants the children?"
When Yvette asked this question, she looked quite scared.
If this man really wanted to compete with her for custodywhen the children grew up, she was not completely sure that she could win.
Just thinking about it made her feel pain.
Stephen asked, "Why do you think so?"
"I don’t know." Yvette shook her head and frowned. "I just think he wants to take the children away from me."
Then, she said firmly, "I won’t let him take the children away."
Stephen paused for a moment and then sighed. "Mingxi, I think you misunderstood."
It was obvious that the man cared about her more than the baby.
After all, the baby was about to be born, so it was relatively safe. If Yvette ate the something wrong, it would be her who would suffer.
She looked up at him, blinked, and asked, "What did I misunderstand?"
"I don’t think he wants to take away your children," Pei Xingzhi said.
She still didn’t believe it and said, "He has been appearing like a ghost these two days, and he even showed up when my due date was about to come. If he didn’t want to take the children away, what else could he be?"
Stephen was silent.
In fact, he didn’t want to say it. He felt that it would be unfavorable to him.
However, he was worried that she would be anxious again, so he said lightly, "He should be concerned about you."
"Concerned?"
She was a little confused.
Lance cared about her, but wasn’t there someone by his side now?
It was not fair to Kali...
Yvette didn’t sympathize with Kali. She just felt that a man should abide by the ethics after having a woman.
Whether it was the woman he was with or the woman he had confirmed his relationship with, he should not implicate other women during this period of time.
She didn’t speak, and Stephen didn’t say much either.
But before she got out of the car, he told her not to think too much.
After she returned to her room, she thought about Stephen’s words and Lance’s actions.
In her impression, this man had always been very arrogant. After being rejected so ruthlessly by her, why would he still care about her?
She couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard she tried.
In the evening.
All of a sudden, she felt a pain.
She didn’t expect that her water would break so early. There were still two weeks left before the due date.
Maybe it was because she had exercised too much today, or it was ice cream, or something else...
But now, she had no time to think about it.
The pain in her belly urged her...
She wanted to get the phone at the head of the bed, but it fell off.
She had no choice but to move her body little by little. When she got under the bed, she didn’t see her mobile phone.
It was not suitable for her to lie down and look at the bottom of the bed. After touching it for a while, she turned her head and found that she was only a few steps away from the front door.
She tried to call for help first. "Is there anyone... Is there anyone..."
She couldn’t shout loudly because of the sudden contracting of her womb.
It was Ayana in the room next door. It was late at night, and she probably wouldn’t be able to hear her voice when she was sleeping soundly.
To be on the safe side, she climbed over the carpet.
She was afraid that she would fall if she stood up.
It took her a lot of effort to reach the door, but she encountered a new difficulty that she couldn’t get up.
She knocked on the door. "Knock, knock... Knock, knock..."
One after another, she didn’t know if anyone had heard it. Gradually, the pain made her more and more exhausted.
After raising her hand again, she fell powerlessly and closed her eyes.
