Chapter 85
With the baby in her belly, it was already a sure thing that she and Kieran would get married.
She had absolutely no intention of getting involved with Kieran, and she didnโt want to go back to the Argentโs villa either.
Roschelle did this, but it really wasnโt necessary.
And doing this only showed her own uncertainty and doubt, which was laughable.
Alarieka smelled the chicken soup, slowly turned her head, and saw the buttery chicken soup in the thermos. Her first reaction was to want to throw up.
She really liked Giselleโs cooking, and Giselleโs chicken soup always suited her taste.
This bowl of chicken soup didnโt look light at all, and even before tasting it, Alarieka could already feel how uncomfortable it would be in her stomach.
Besides, she drank so much last night that she had a stomach bleed, so she could only eat some light food.
Roschelleโs little thoughts couldnโt be hidden at all.
Alarieka said quietly, โMs. Whitaker should really keep an eye on her family and stop letting their dog run around biting people.โ
Roschelleโs eyes suddenly turned red, and her voice was low and shaky, โIt was my family who did something wrong. Iโm sorry. I hope you wonโt be mad.โ
Alaricka hadnโt said anything yet, and Roschelle suddenly covered her mouth and gagged.
Kieranโs brows drew together a little, and there was a flash of pain in his eyes. He strode forward and put his hand on Roschelleโs shoulder.
โNot feeling well?โ
Roschelle covered her mouth, nodded with tears in her eyes, and said, โYeah.โ
She leaned in close to Kieranโs ear, her earlobes a little red, and whispered, โIt was like this for the first three months, you didnโt need to worry.โ
Roschelleโs voice wasnโt too loud or too soft, just right for Alarieka to hear.
Alarieka lowered her eyelids and said calmly, โSince youโre not feeling well, then go back. I wonโt keep you here.โ
Kieranโs eyes darkened, and there was a heavy pressure in his voice: โAlarieka, is this your attitude?โ
Alarieka looked up, stubbornly stared at Kieran, and her mouth was sarcastic.
โWhat kind of attitude did you want from me? I was a patient who drank so much I got a stomach bleed, and I still had to take care of the feelings of the perpetratorโs family?โ
Kieran said in a low voice, โWhat Calvin did had nothing to do with her.โ
โDonโt make things hard for Rose.โ
Alaricka took a few deep breaths, wanted to say something, but just couldnโt.
She wanted to ask Kieran, why did Calvin dare to act like a boss in that place, because he had a cousin Roschelle who wanted to be your wife.
Almost all of Calvinโs confidence in what he did came from Roschelle.
Kieran, did you really not know?
Roschelle leaned in Kieranโs arms, her teary eyes looking so pitiful.
โAlarieka, Iโm really sorry, I was pregnant, the baby was really fussy, I didnโt have that much time to take good care of him.โ
Kieranโs hand on Roschelleโs shoulder tightened a bit, like he was giving Roschelle some confidence and support.
Alarieka closed her eyes and calmed herself down.
Opened my eyes again.
โYou guys go, let me rest alone.โ
Roschelle really did leave, but Kieran hadnโt left yet.
There were only her and Kieran left in the ward.
Alarieka didnโt hold back and just lay down, turning her back to Kieran.
Kieranโs voice was deep: โAlarieka, donโt take your temper out on Rose.โ
Alarieka yawned, โYou got it wrong, I was just stating the facts, when did I lose my temper?โ
It was quiet behind her for a while.
Suddenly, a big hand pressed down on her shoulder and forced her body back.
The next second, Alarickaโs eyes met Kieranโs dark eyes, really deep and intense.
Kieran kept his body really low, and their breaths were almost tangled together.
Alarickaโs pupils shrank. She put both hands on Kieranโs shoulders and pushed him away with all her strength.
โKieran, are you crazy?!โ
Kieran had smooth, sharp lines on his face, his eyes looked heavy, and his thin lips curled into a cold, slight smile.
Alariekaโs already pale little face got even whiter, and under the light coming in from the window, her skin almost looked see-through. Her eyes were big, clear, and bright, showing both stubbornness and fragility. Her lips were full but dry and colorless. She looked flustered but was trying hard to stay calm.
Kieran looked over, and it seemed like a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.
He grabbed her chin and said in a low voice, โAlarieka, you still didnโt learn your lesson.โ
Alarieka gritted her teeth.
Good, good, good!
You little rascal!
Kieran pretty much put his whole body on top, and Alarieka couldnโt move at all.
