Chapter 75
Seeing Kieran holding it like it was some kind of rare treasure, Roschelle broke into a smile through her tears.
โKier, you didnโt have to do this, Iโm just pregnant, not sick.โ
Kieran looked helpless: โStill gotta be careful.โ
Roschelleโs eyes were full of laughter: โOkay, Iโll be careful, you have to relax too.โ
After eating the nutritious meal carefully made by the servants at the Argentโs villa and lying on the soft bed at the Argentโs villa, Roschelle felt really at ease.
Her hand slowly rested on her lower belly, touching her flat stomach through the fabric, and she slowly started to smile.
I didnโt expect this kid, who came out of nowhere, to actually become her stepping stone to marry into the Argent family.
The thing she wanted but couldnโt get, this kid just got it.
Roschelle couldnโt hide the smile at the corner of her mouth.
But slowly, Roschelleโs smile faded.
She knew clearly, this kid.
It wasnโt Kieranโs kid.
Wasnโt one of the Argent kids.
She relied on this kid, who Wallace thought was a descendant of the Argent family, to marry into the Argent family.
If Wallace found out this kid wasnโt the Argent familyโs kidโฆ
Thinking of that possibility, Roschelle shuddered, and fear crept over her.
She absolutely couldnโt let Wallace know this kid wasnโt the Argent familyโs kid.
Absolutely not!
As long as she thought about where this kid came from, Roschelle just couldnโt help but feel flustered.
She sat up and turned on the bedside lamp.
Suddenlyโฆ
Knock knockโฆ
The knocking on the door was sudden, but it was steady and regular. I didnโt even have to look to know who was outside.
It was Kieran.
Thinking about the person outside the door, Roschelle couldnโt help but feel pink bubbles popping up in her heart, her chest felt warm, and her eyes got shy.
Roschelle grabbed the sheet and said softly, โCome in.โ
It really was Kieran who came in, wearing comfy loungewear, soft slippers, and holding a cup of hot milk.
โDrink milk before sleeping.โ
Kieran put the hot milk on the nightstand, lowered his eyelids, and his dark eyes took on a warm, gentle look in the dim room. His deep, cold voice seemed to be softened by the warm yellow light.
Roschelle felt really comforted and got even more into and dependent on this man.
She grabbed the milk, took a sip, swallowed, and then said quietly:
โKier, did you really not mind?โ
After she asked this, she suddenly felt a bit uneasy.
Kieran was a man, and he was a rich and powerful one, proud and noble, who had been spoiled and pampered since he was a kid.
Would a man like that let his wife be pregnant with someone elseโs baby?
After that, I still had to raise this kid.
Could Kieran really stay totally focused?
After asking this, Roschelle didnโt dare look up at Kieranโs expression.
But after a while, Kieran still didnโt answer.
Roschelle was getting more and more scared inside. Was Kieran regretting it?
Didnโt want to keep her anymore, or didnโt want to have anything to do with her.
She even started to fool herself into thinking maybe she spoke too quietly, so Kieran didnโt hear her, thatโs why he didnโt answer.
A long time passed, and Roschelle forced a weak smile: โIf you donโt want toโฆโ
โRose.โ
Kieranโs voice was deep, with a sense of certainty and reassurance.
Roschelle looked up, her eyes lost and tired, with a bit of a pitiful look: โKierโฆโ
Kieran sat down next to her, his eyes quiet and deep as he looked at her. His thin lips pressed together, and his face looked especially handsome and mysterious under the dim bedside lamp. Roschelle stared at him, a little lost in thought.
Kieran raised his hand and grabbed her shoulder a bit firmly: โRose, donโt worry about this.โ
At that moment, Roschelleโs lips even trembled a little.
Kieranโs voice was flat but convincing: โI said Iโd take care of you and your son, and I wonโt go back on my word. I keep my promises.โ
โAbout this kid, I kept it from my grandpaโs side. Later on, he was going to be the Argent familyโs kid.โ
โJust stay here and relax. If you need anything, just ask the butler. Heโll take care of it.โ
โKier!โ
Watching Kieran seriously plan out their future, Roschelle finally couldnโt help it. She rushed over, wrapped her arms tightly around Kieranโs slim waist, and buried her face in his chest.
Kieran raised his hand and gently brushed the hair at the back of Roschelleโs head.
โAbout what my grandpa said, I checked it out, and the 18th of next month really was a good day. Go home and talk to your parents, let the two families meet, and just settle it.โ
