Stuck In His Heart

Chapter 178 A Strange Atmosphere (2)

Being upset, Consuela brushed her teeth and washed her face. She looked at herself in the mirror, finding that she could have a good sleep. Although her face was rosy and glittering, a tinge of fatigue could be seen in her eyes.

A marriage like this really made her feel tired. They had to put on a mask to please each other all the time.

So, on one hand, if you want to find a man or decide to marry him, you'd better not marry a superior man, if he was not deeply in love with you without any principles.

After freshening up, she went downstairs and sat on the table. She saw two sets of tableware neatly placed. Raising her eyebrows, she saw Emily who was busy in the kitchen.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Richie. Breakfast is almost ready." The moment she turned around, she saw the worried look on Consuela's face.

"Take your time. I'm not in a hurry." With a glass of water in her hand, Consuela rolled her eyes and asked, "Is he still here?"

The other day, he left early instead of waiting for breakfast in the villa. Most of the time, the sound of starting the engine could be heard when she was brushing her teeth.

They didn't have a good conversation yesterday. Why did he stay?

"Mr. Richie left early because he was very busy in the company the other day. Now he doesn't have to go out early and come back late." Emily raised her eyebrows at Consuela.

When Consuela realized what she meant, she had left already. The young man walked towards the table. His footsteps were steady and resolute, like stepping on the heart of a wounded woman.

"You want me to leave?" He pulled the chair in the opposite seat and sat down, and asked directly to the opposite direction.

She knew how to camouflage herself when she faced him. This time, she didn't say anything about it. "I'm just surprised."

She decided not to ask any questions.

Since he didn't respond, Consuela didn't say anything more. She just tilted her head to one side and shrugged.

As Emily was about to put the breakfast on the table, he had just been sitting at the table less than a minute, which made Consuela suspect that they were in collusion.

But she could not bring herself to question or qualify to do so.

On the table, there was a daily newspaper every day no matter Richie would read it or not.

He picked up the newspaper and read it for a while. Then he attentively used his knife and fork to eat the fried egg and a small piece of steak in his bowl.

Then he raised his head and said, "I'll arrange a car for you and take you to the hospital." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Consuela was stunned by the words. Before she could ask anything more, the baby gave her a kick in the belly.

As one of the involved persons, she forgot when she should have an examination. But Richie could clearly remember that he was really different from other people for the baby.

"Don't worry. I won't run around. After all, you are in charge of the Xia Clan and my future." She didn't know what the man thought of her now.

"If you really know that you should pay attention to the interests of the whole situation, you should restrain your emotions. Don't be fool."

He stood up, took his coat and left. The threatening words were still lingering in her ears.

'Don't be fool.' Consuela sneered inwardly.

On their way to HR Hospital, Consuela had her eyes wide open. He had arranged a car for her, but in a disguised manner, he had observed all of Consuela's every move.

She looked around and found nothing strange. Then she asked the driver who was driving carefully, "is there a mini camera in the car?"

It was not easy to drive on the road at the moment, or the driver really wanted to let go of his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead. He said with a smile, "Mrs. Richie, there is no such kind of thing in the car. If you want to get one, you have to ask Mr. Richie's will first."

Asked him? If it was not refused, it would also be refused after the bitchy remarks.

Shaking her head, Consuela replied, "I just wanted to ask you this question. Please don't be so excited."

He was so excited that he even sweated. She didn't know how to describe his mental quality.

The driver gave a few dry laugh and just passed the bumpy road. After getting on the road, he began to speed up.

The doctor they had booked was Cassie. The driver helped Consuela get her phone and left.

When they entered the elevator, the embarrassed woman asked tentatively, "Who showed you the photos?"

Stunned, Consuela smiled and said, "Sorry, I can't tell you that."

Afraid of unnecessary misunderstandings, Consuela added, "Because I don't know the purpose of that person giving me the photos. I will tell you after I find out."

Cassie nodded her head seriously and thought to herself, '"When you find it out, the baby will have be born."

She asked this only to sound out. She wanted to know if Richie had ever told her about what she had said in the phone call yesterday.

Judging from the stunned look on her face, Cassie could tell that nothing had happened. She decided to tell the truth first.

"I'm sorry, Consuela. I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone too far. I shouldn't have had the conversation with Richie yesterday. I was the one who retort..."

Cassie raised her eyes to look at the lights on the roof of the elevator and then lowered her eyes to look at the expression on Consuela's face again, but she was unable to utter a word.

Compared with Cassie's hesitation, and her changing expression on her face, Consuela seemed very calm. The elevator door opened, and they left one after another.

"What happened next?" She asked with a smile, not forcing it at all, which made Cassie feel better too.

"Then... I spoke ill of what you said to me earlier. I intended to teach that man a lesson." Cassie said in a hurry and fluster.

After saying that, she hung her head and stopped talking, as if she was talking more and more wrong and her mind was in a muddle.

"Oh, that's it. I thought it was a big deal. It doesn't matter. The affection between me and him is not as weak as the comprehension when we are angry."

She lowered her head and looked at the stunned, confused expression on her face. The look in her eyes was so convincing that Consuela wanted to teach her a lesson.

Why didn't she know how to behave herself!

In a daze, Cassie told her the truth, "But he was so angry on the phone that he didn't say anything."

"No matter who hear that, he or she will feel uncomfortable, let alone the person who knows you best."

Their relationship was so fragile. Plus, the matter of the pictures before, and now there was a big risky.

No wonder the man kept a straight face. It was just that he was not in a good mood.
