My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1753
Night of Destiny
Chapter 1753 Scheme
However, she wouldnât agree to it. Lucy couldnât care less about that plot of land, not when her
marriage was at stake. She would never let her father agree to the deal, and Louie was someone who
cared for nothing but profit, or so she thought. I know him. Everything he does, he does for profit. He
only likes Eva for her looks. If she loses that, he wonât stay with her anymore.
When it comes to that, heâll never let go of his shares for a woman who has lost the only trait he likes.
Maybe heâll agree to the marriage then, and I can finally be his wife, staying with him forever. I might
get to enjoy all the perks of marrying him. She looked at his photo once more, the sight of it stoking the
flames of desire within her. Just a look at his photo was enough to make her shiver. âI wonât let anyone
else take you,â she muttered.
Most of the guests were already leaving the day after the wedding. The Presgraves were among them.
It had been four days since they came to the island, and Jared had school to attend.
Nigel and Queenie sent them off after breakfast. Before they parted ways, Anastasia told Queenie to
call if she needed anything. Anastasia was a mother of two. She knew how to handle most problems
that would arise during pregnancy.
âOf course, Anastasia,â Queenie said gently. âWeâre a family now. You and Nigel should come and visit
us when you have time.â
Nigel was playing with Willow. The girl even kissed him, much to his delight. âOh, weâll visit you a lot,â
he said. He then looked at Jared. âWoah, Jaredâs tall now. Bet heâll be six feet tall in a few years. Time
flies, huh?â
Jared held Nigelâs hand and looked at him with anticipation in his eyes. âCan I have your gaming
system, Uncle Nigel?â
âYou wonât give up until I say yes, huh? Fine, you can take it.â Nigelâs focus was on his wife now. He
lost interest in games, so Jared could have his gaming gear.
Anastasia said, âItâs fine to play games, but remember not to neglect your studies, Jared.â
Elliot didnât mind Jared playing games. He was confident his boy had enough discipline to control
himself. And this is good for discipline training.
âDonât worry, Mom. Two hours on the weekend. Thatâs all.â
The newlyweds saw them off and returned to their villa. They were going to stay for a few more days. It
was a nice place. Fresh air and a quiet environment. It was a perfect place for a pregnant woman.
Eventually, Julian and Jessie had to leave as well. They, too, had work to do. After saying their
goodbyes, they hopped onto the helicopter and enjoyed the sea view as the chopper flew across the
air.
It was 3.00PM when they returned to Averna. Julian asked Louie and Eva out for dinner, and Jessie
went with him. Her parents were still on the island, so she had the freedom to do whatever she wanted.
âWhy donât you stay at my place tonight?â Julian suggested.
She nodded. âIf you want me to, then sure.â
âOf course, I want you.â He chuckled. âIâd love for you to stay.â
âNot up to anything cheeky, I hope.â She could see right through him.
âNope,â he denied. Not like you can do anything about it once we get home.
Jessie shrugged it off. Eva had called her, inviting her over for dinner. The Gilmore brothers met up at
6.00PM, bringing their partners along. This meeting was a cheery one, and the ladies became good
friends. It was only a matter of time before they became family.
