Chapter 111
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV The next morning, I went downstairs with Lucas who had just woken up in my arms.
At this moment, the hourly worker had already cleaned up the living room. She looked at me and said with a smile, âThe breakfast is ready.â
âOkay.â I nodded and went into the dining room with Lucas.
As soon as I walked into the dining room, I saw a man in a white shirt sitting in front of the dining table.
He did not eat at the moment, but he was reading the newspaper in his hand. This was his habit. He liked to look through the newspaper in the morning.
Herbert didnât look up, nor did I say hello to him. I sat in a seat on the left side with Lucas in my arms.
âDad⦠Dadâ¦â As soon as I sat down, Lucas began to scream in my arms.
Herbert immediately closed the newspaper and looked up with a gentle smile on his face. âLucas, youâre awake?â
âAh⦠ahâ¦â Lucas screamed and didnât know what to say.
I quickly took the baby breakfast specially prepared for Lucas. I scooped a spoonful of it and fed it to him.
âLucas, be good. Have breakfast.â
âAh, no⦠noâ¦â He pushed my hand and refused to eat anything.
I smiled and said, âYou donât like to eat this. Iâll change it. This one looks very deliciousâ¦â
As I spoke, I put a spoon into his mouth. But this time, he still refused to eat and kept pushing my hand.
In the past, he was very obedient when it came to eating. Sometimes, he could even grab some food for himself.
He refused to have breakfast today, so I couldnât find a reason.
In the end, I had no choice but to put down the tableware and look at Lucas with some embarrassment.
At this time, Herbert suddenly stood up, walked to me, and said, âLet me do it.â
Herbert took Lucas from me, walked to his seat, put him on his lap, and took the bowl of breakfast that he had just eaten. He scooped up a spoonful and put it into his mouthe.
This time, Lucas ate it happily.
I understood. Lucas didnât want me to feed him. He wanted Herbert to feed him.
I couldnât help but feel a little disappointed. After all, Herbert was the real father of Lucas. I just came to take care of him for a few days. He didnât have much affection for me.
The father and son were so focused on feeding each other that I couldnât integrate into them, so I lowered my head to eat breakfast.
Soon, when I was full, Lucas had also finished his breakfast.
I stood up and said to Herbert, âNow Iâll give Lucas back to you. Itâs time for me to go to work.â
Herbert didnât say anything. I turned around and was about to leave âWa wa..â At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of Lucas crying behind me My heart trembled when I heard him cry. I turned around immediately and saw him crying sadly in the arms of Herbert, and his two chubby hands had already grabbed my clothes, | glanced at Herbert. Although I felt uncomfortable, I didnât take a step forward to get close to him.
âDonât cry!â Herbert suddenly got angry with Lucas.
Lucas was just a baby. Herbertâs roar startled him, and then the baby cried even harder.
I instinctively snatched Lucas from Herbertâs arms and complained, âDonât be so loud. You will scare him!â
Herbertâs expression was very ugly, but he didnât say anything. He curled up in my arms, feeling wronged. âGood boy, good boy. Donât be afraid. Iâll take you out to bask in the sun, okay?â I gently stroked his head. âAh⦠Ahâ¦â Although he could not speak, he seemed to understand what I meant. His fat hand pointed outside.
After that, I walked out of the house with Lucas in my arms. I walked in the garden while playing with him.
Soon after, his mood calmed down, and he was very happy. He began to laugh, and the shock on Lucas face earlier disappeared immediately.
However, he was happy but I couldnât leave. His little hand kept holding my neck and refused to let 1. go.
I was in a dilemma. I couldnât let go of my job, but I couldnât bear to let go of Lucas.
Half an hour later, I sat on the sofa and Lucas sat on my lap. I fed Lucas milk.
Herbert was sitting on a sofa, looking down at a stack of documents on his legs, as if he was working I didnât talk to him, but I couldnât help looking at him. Ring⦠Ring⦠Suddenly, his cell phone rang.
Herbert took the phone, glanced at the flashing phone number on the screen, and then picked up the phone.
I didnât know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but Herbert said to that person, âCancel the meeting at 10 oâclock in the morning. Change it to another time.â
Was the meeting in the morning canceled? I guessed that he was worried about Lucas. I looked at Lucas in my arms and said, âIf you have something to do, just go. Lucas doesnât want to see you now. Iâll take care of him for another day.â Herbert glanced at me and said, âThen you have to work hard for another day. Iâll get off work early in the evening and come back to help you.â âOkay.â I nodded. Only then did he pack up his documents. Finally, he glanced at me and Lucas and turned to leave.
After Herbert left, my heart was very complicated. I didnât expect that he and I would meet again in such a situation. This was Kleinâs responsibility. He didnât explain who this son belonged to. However, if Klein had explained that Lucas was the son of Herbert, would I have agreed to help? I lowered my head to look at Lucas, who had finished his milk. He laid in my arms as he slept. My heart became very soft. If it werenât for that, how could I take care of Lucas?
He was so cute. I couldnât leave himâ¦
