Chapter 74
Bella‘s POV: Caroline‘s words made me nervous. I leaned on my waist and slowly slumped on the sofa. She was right. How could the Wharton Family allow its bloodline to be wandering outside? Two months ago, Herbert‘s mother had suddenly come to visit, and had delivered so many children‘s items. It could be seen that their family cared deeply about this child. But could I accept my fate just like that? No, that was impossible. I would still have to fight with all my might! I adjusted my mood and said firmly, “I will never give up the right to raise this child!” “It‘s not up to you to decide.” Caroline sneered. I glared at her and said, “You like Herbert. I won‘t compete with you. You can have a baby with him. Why do you have to steal my child?” “It‘s not that you don‘t want to compete with me, but it‘s that you don‘t have the qualifications to compete with me at all, because you are just a substitute for me!” Caroline raised her chin, her attitude was extremely arrogant. Seeing her domineering look, I seemed to understand a little. She chose this time to provoke me, probably to make me agitated, so that the baby in my belly could not be born smoothly. Realizing this conspiracy, I suppressed my anger and said to myself in my heart, Bella, don‘t fall into her trap. Be patient! Then, I chuckled. “What are you laughing at?” Caroline asked. I stopped smiling and revealed her plot. “I‘m laughing at you for telling me these things today just because you don‘t have confidence. Is it because he refuses to divorce me? You can‘t wait anymore?” “Nonsense! Herbert said that he would divorce you after you give birth to the child, and then marry me.” Caroline shouted at me.
“Since that‘s the case, my expected date of delivery is about to arrive. You can‘t wait just a few more days? You just have to rush so far to find me here.” I expressed my contempt for her. Caroline didn‘t say anything. She hesitated for a moment and said, “Bella, do you know why Herbert sent you to this villa on the Moon Mountain?” Caroline crossed her arms in front of her chest as her eyes were emanating a strange look. “What are you trying to say?” I asked. Caroline lowered her head and smiled, saying, “On the surface, it‘s you who didn‘t behave like a woman. Herbert was angry, so he sent you to this
abandoned place, so as not to make him a cuckold again.” I stared at her in shock. She even knew these things. It seemed that these were also told to her by Herbert!
But it was a matter between me and him. How could he tell other women?

18520 Did this mean that he had a very close relationship with Caroline? They were so intimate that they could say anything? For some reason, I felt a stabbing pain in my heart. After I relaxed a little, I couldn‘t help but snort in my heart. Herbert had been thinking about Caroline for ten years. A man like him with various halos on his head had never fallen in love with another woman for ten years. It could be seen how important she was in his heart.
Thinking of this, my heart ached even more. Then I touched my swollen belly with my hand. The baby also began to be disobedient at this moment. “In fact, there is another reason that you don‘t know. That is, you will make me very unhappy if you stay in K City. Herbert doesn‘t want to see me unhappy, so, he sent you here. Without you, he and I can live a very happy life in k City. We can always be together. Every morning, the first person I see when I wake up is him. Every night, he will hold me to sleep.” Caroline approached me with a smile. Every step closer made me feel more nervous.
My mentality, which I tried hard to recover, was completely shattered. I never thought that there would be such a reason for Herbert to insist on sending me here. It turned out that he thought that I was an annoyance to Caroline in k City. Caroline continued, “Do you know? As soon as you left, Herbert took me to your original residence and we lived there. Now I‘m sleeping on the big bed you slept on. The bed is really big, very suitable for us to make love. Maybe you didn‘t satisfy him when you were with him, did you? He pestered me every night these few months, and I couldn‘t get up every morning...” “Stop!” I couldn‘t stand it anymore and shouted in agitation. It took me several days to buy the curtains, sheets, and beddings of that house. They were all the colors I liked. Now they were occupied by another woman. Of course, my beloved Herbert has also become Caroline‘s. My hand touched my chest as it was very
uncomfortable! “Haha...” Caroline threw her head back and laughed. “I‘m a little tired today. I‘ll come back to chat with you another day. I can talk to you about his preferences, especially those on the bed.” Caroline gave me a provocative smile, then turned and left. At this time, Miranda came over with a cup of tea. As soon as Caroline turned around, she bumped into Miranda. The coffee spilled on Caroline, and then the cup fell on the carpet. “You don‘t have eyes?” As she lowered her head and saw that her clothes were all wet, she immediately shouted at Miranda. “Sorry, I didn‘t see you.” Miranda hurriedly said. “I was here all the time, why didn‘t you see me? What bad luck!” After a few words, she left in a bad mood. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
After Caroline left, Miranda came to me and asked anxiously, “Mrs. Wharton, are you all right? Do you want me to call Mr. Wharton?”
“No, I‘m fine. Take me upstairs to rest.” My voice was still trembling.

“All right.” Miranda helped me up the stairs. I had no appetite at all. I could only hear Caroline‘s words. Finally, after a sleepless night, my stomach began to hurt.
At first, I thought I would be fine after resting for a while, but the pain became more and more intense. In the end, I was afraid.
It wasn‘t until Miranda sent me my meals that she shouted at me, “Mrs. Wharton, your amniotic fluid is broken!”
My amniotic fluid has been broken?
Was I going to give birth?
“Miranda, hurry up and call Herbert!” I took Miranda‘s hand and said anxiously.
I was at the top of Moon Mountain, two hours drive from the hospital in K City.
“Wait for me. I‘ll call him right away.” Miranda hurriedly went downstairs to make a call. Enduring the pain, I walked down the stairs and leaned against the sofa, waiting for Herbert to send me to the hospital.
However, Miranda made a few calls, and in the end, in disappointment, he said, “Mrs. Wharton, Mr. Wharton and Connor went on a business trip to Singapore. They‘re on the plane and couldn‘t be contacted at all.”
“Then what should we do?” I asked anxiously. It was such a coincidence. I was burning with anxiety.
“By the way, Mr. Wharton gave me his secretary‘s number before he left that day. He asked me to call her if there is something urgent.” Miranda called again.
I caressed my swollen belly and kept comforting the baby in my belly. “Child, hold on a little longer. Don’t be in such a hurry to come out!“
