She froze. She⦠did not know how to refute that.
What he said next almost made her faint. âThis is proof. In case you default in the future!â
âWhat⦠What do you mean?â she snapped.
âArenât you eating here with me today because you want to compensate for my carâs damages?â he asked.
âI⦠Iâm not going to default. Iâll just ask you for a discount when you set the compensation fees,â Lina retorted in a mumble.
âSo youâre not going to default on this, are you?â
âOf course!â she said.
âSo, are you going to take responsibility for me too?â His thin lips parted slightly, and his dark eyes stared at her.
His gaze was full of emotion.
Lina felt as if she was trapped in Hadwin Stephensonâs words. She chuckled dryly and hurriedly lowered her head to continue eating.
A touch of disappointment flashed across Hadwin Stephensonâs eyes.
âDoes she⦠still refuse to be with me? Even though sheâs pregnant with my baby, she still resists me.â
The blood curse in his body had not been removed. Once it was completely removed and there were no more obstacles or danger between them, he⦠would come clean to her.
After the meal, Lina felt like she had survived a disaster.
Hadwin Stephenson said, âLet me send you home. Iâll have the driver bring your car over to return it to you.â
âWhat⦠What about the damages?â She had not forgotten the ultimate goal of her meal with him today.
He saw her eager eyes and asked, âWhenâs your next pregnancy check-up?â
âHuh?â She was stunned by his sudden question. These two things were not relevant at all!
âIn two weeks,â she murmured.
âOkay, Iâll accompany you,â he said.
âWhat?â She was startled. âYouâre⦠Youâre accompanying me?â
She was even stammering.
âIs there a problem?â he asked lightly.
âOf course, thereâs a problem, and itâs a huge problem. If he accompanies me to my pregnancy check-
up, then the whole world will know that Iâm pregnant with his baby!â
âI can go alone, so donât bother.â She smiled dryly and reminded him again, âAbout the car damagesâ¦â
âIâll accompany you to your pregnancy check-up in two weeks, and we can talk about the car damages then,â he said.
Lina could not help whining in her heart⦠âDo I have to wait another two weeks? And the biggest problem is that⦠heâs going to accompany me for the pregnancy check-up.â
Lina grimaced as she got into Hadwin Stephensonâs car.
The car drove to the entrance of Linaâs apartment. She opened the door and was about to get down when Hadwin Stephenson suddenly reached out to grab her wrist.
âYouâ¦â She looked at him with some surprise.
âLina, even God wants us to get back together, right?â He smiled slightly, but for some reason, his face seemed pale. However, a gleam of light could be seen in his eyes.
