A Force Love Contract With GANG LEADER

And he stood up good-tempered and carried her and went back to sit on the stool. He held her in his arms and stretched his hands to play the piano with unprofessional posture, and he hummed the song at the same time.

As Kate was choking and would not tell him the lyrics, so he improvised. After he finished, he kissed her on the forehead and asked, “How is my version?”

This side of Tristan was both unfamiliar and familiar to Kate. This was the man she dreamed of when she was young. She was overwhelmed by her emotions and rested her head on his shoulder, letting tears pour out as they wanted.

“It isn’t prenatal depression, is it? We shall check with the doctor tomorrow.”

As Kate cried, she heard the melody changing to merry and fast, “London Bridge is falling down. London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down. My fair lady. Build it with iron bars, iron bars, iron bars.”

The song was cute, and she turned to see Tristan’s hands. The slender fingers moved on the keyboard swiftly and gracefully. And it suddenly occurred to her that it was these hands that tortured her nearly to death…

Kate suddenly flushed and put her hand to her cheek, fearing her thoughts might be noticed.

The pianist focused on his performance and didn’t notice her change. After London Bridge is Falling Down, he played two more songs. The songs all had simple melodies and a lively rhythm but still could attract the audience’s attention.

She examined Tristan’s face: The corners of his mouth were lifted slightly. His expression was earnest but also gentle. She found that the vicious and cold look on his face had been gone for quite a long time.

Was it because he had become a father?

“Do you like it?” Tristan asked her. She nodded, but suddenly she gave out a cry. Tristan stopped and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Kate looked down to her belly and said, “It kicked me.”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

He was thrilled and put his hand on her belly, but a few layers of fabric prevented his enjoyment of the actions of his future child.

He lifted Kate’s top and put his ear to her belly. They both held their breath for half a minute, and then they felt the little thing move. They both cried out with surprise and happiness. “It must have heard my playing.”

Kate’s belly was like a balloon, and the skin was smooth and warm. Her breasts also became plumper after she got pregnant. There was a faint scent about her. Tristan pulled down her top before he got turned on.

He said seriously, “The 8th of last month was your birthday, but I didn’t celebrate for you…”

Kate’s heart felt a slight thrill. She didn’t expect him to remember it. She said, “I never celebrate my birthday.”

Tristan squeezed her hand and added, “The reason I didn’t celebrate with you is that I have bad memories of that day. I cannot celebrate then.”

Kate thought of something, and she blurted out, “What happened on that day?”

Tristan drew a breath and said in a low voice, “My father died on that day.”

Kate stiffened.

After a few seconds of silence, she said, “I am sorry.”

Tristan shook her hand and he held and said, “It is okay. It was over twenty years ago. It is just…”

He looked at her with an apology, “we will have to celebrate your birthday a few days later in the future.”

And then he took out a small box from his pocket. “This is my gift for your birthday.”

It was a small thing held in his fingers, but the lights it reflected were outstanding. After Kate saw what it was, she was shocked and scared. She raised her eyes to him.

Tristan’s expression was gentle and earnest. He looked at the ring and said, “They say the best gift a man can give a woman is marriage, and the best gift a woman gives a man is a child.”

“I…” Kate’s lips trembled.

“Hush…” He stopped her rejection, looked into her eyes, and said, “We both know the real situation between us, but our initial intentions may change.”

Tristan glanced at her waist, and his eyes grew tender, “It is growing every day. You two both need an identity.”

Kate turned pale. Her eyes showed her complicated emotions. He looked into her eyes again and said, “One-third of our three-year term has passed. If you insist on leaving when the time is up, I will not force you to stay. But before that, can we live peacefully?”

Tristan’s eyes looked peaceful and sincere, without any intention to force her. It made Kate feel difficult to reject him. She could only stare at him.

Tristan held her hand and put the ring on her slim finger.

The size was just right. The diamond was dazzling like a star. Strangely there was no repulsion in her heart.
