Chapter 73
Be‘s POV: I listened to Miranda, “Oh, Mr. Wharton, it‘s very cold at night. You definitely won‘t be able
to sleep well in the car. Where‘s Connor?” “Today is the weekend. I gave Connor a holiday.” said
Herbert. “What? You drove here in person?” “Miranda, go and rest. I‘ll be back tomorrow morning.” With
these words, he walked out of the vi. Then I heard Miranda talking to herself. “Mr. Wharton is usually
very fierce to his wife, but in fact, he can‘t let go of her.” Listening to these words, I felt very
ufortable. Why was he here sote at night? Did he want to ask me about my situation? But it was
a matter that can be solved by a phone call. Why did he run hundreds of kilometers back and forth? And
why did he have to sleep in a car instead of staying in the warm vi? I suddenly remembered thest
time I said that if he lived here, I could not fall asleep? Did he take my casual words seriously? And what
did Miranda mean just now? Did he care about me in his heart? But what was the rtionship between
him and Caroline? Wasn‘t he in love with Caroline? Why did he spend so much time on me?” For a
moment, my heart was in a mess, and my mood was veryplicated. I didn‘t know how long I stood
there, and my body became a little cold. Then I remembered to go into the room. Lying in bed in the
middle of the night, I didn‘t fall asleep. Many things were too contradictory. If he really cared about me.
Why did he pester Caroline and go to Europe for her? But if he didn‘t care about me? Why did he do
those things? I thought about it for a long time. Finally, I came up with a conclusion. Herbert cared about
the child in my belly. After all, this was his first child. He must want me to give birth to his child safely.
Except for this conclusion, I couldn‘t think of any other possibility. But if it was really for this reason, he
came to see me in the middle of the night. My mood became depressed, because this made me realize
that there was only this child left in the connection between us. The next morning, I overheard that
Miranda made breakfast and sent it out of the vi. I knew that it must have been sent to Herbert.
It wasn‘t until Miranda came back with a lunch box that I knew he had left, so I went downstairs for
breakfast

“Mrs. Wharton, you‘re up so early today?” Miranda asked in a surprised tone. “Oh, I had to go to the
bathroom in the middle of the night, so I couldn‘t sleep,” I said. “At this time, it will indeed be very difficult.
There is still half a month before your expected date of delivery. You have to be more careful. Yesterday,
Mr. Wharton said that he would send you back two weeks in advance to prepare for delivery!” Miranda
laughed.
“Have you seen him?” I asked on purpose.
“Oh... no, how could I have seen Mr. Wharton? He didn‘te. It was Mr. Wharton who called me
yesterday to ask about your situation.” Miranda sounded a little nervous.
I didn‘t expose Miranda.

At this time, the walkie–talkie at the gate suddenly rang. The walkie–talkie was connected to the security
guard at the gate. If there was anything wrong outside, the security guard could directly inform us with
the walkie–talkie. Miranda went to pick up the walkie–talkie, and the voice of a security guard came from
inside. “Miranda, Miss Ewell hase to visit Mrs. Wharton. She said that it was an order from Mr.
Wharton.”
Hearing this, I was stunned. Caroline? What did shee here for? Did Herbert order her toe here?
If it weren‘t for the fact that he told her that I lived here, she wouldn‘t have been able to find me. “Mrs.
Wharton, do you want to see her?” Miranda asked.
“Herbert asked her toe. How can I not see her?” I asked Miranda.
Miranda didn‘t answer me. She just went to open the door.
I also wanted to hear what Caroline wanted to say to me. In fact, I was a little curious. Had she been with
Herbert in the past few months?
Then she must be very upset. After all, a few months had passed, and Herbert still hadn‘t gotten a
divorce with me. A few minutester, Miranda led her into the vi. I sat on the sofa, watching her smile
at me. Then she sat down on a sofa opposite me. I took a look at the thing in Miranda‘s hand, and then
looked at Caroline. Caroline said with a smile, “I bought some clothes for the baby. I don‘t know if it‘s a
boy or a girl, so I chose the color that both boys and girls can wear.”
There wasn‘t the slightest bit of awkwardness in her tone when she spoke these words, and it sounded
as if she was very intimate with my child?
This made me very ufortable. So, the next moment, I said to Miranda, “Miranda, why haven‘t you
poured coffee for the guest yet?” “Yes, I was negligent.” Miranda quickly put down the things and turned
to the kitchen. My meaning was very clear. This was the vi of Herbert, and I was the hostess of this
vi, No matter what, Caroline was a guest. I didn‘t want her to take herself too seriously. She had
nothing to do with the baby in my belly. Caroline looked up at the vi and suddenly said with a smile,
“This vi is worse than Herbert‘s

78510 seaside vi. In the past, he and I went there for several days off.” It was obvious that Caroline‘s
words were provocative. I couldn‘t be bothered to pay attention to her now, so I looked directly at the
baby clothes on the table and said, “I have already prepared the baby‘s clothes and supplies. Thank you
for your kindness. You‘d better take them back!” Carolineughed even more. “Is that so? If I had known
earlier, I wouldn‘t have spent so much effort to bring it here. Anyway, I can use these clothes when I take
care of my baby in the future.” What did Caroline mean by that? “What do you mean by that? I don‘t
need you to take care of my baby!” I snapped.
“You don‘t know yet? Hasn‘t Herbert told you yet?” Caroline was surprised.
“What do you want to say?” I asked impatiently. I knew that Caroline must be full of malice today, but I
didn‘t know what she wanted to do. Did shee to humiliate me?
I didn‘t think that was the only reason. After all, it was useless to humiliate me.
The next moment, Caroline said, “Since Herbert hasn‘t told you yet, I‘ll tell you. After you give birth to the
child, he will divorce you. After he marries me, I will naturally be the mother of this child. I will definitely
take care of him.”
I was instantly enraged by her words. I pointed at her and said angrily, “Don‘t even think about stealing
my child!” “This is the decision of Herbert. You must listen to him.” said Caroline. I couldn‘t calm down at
all. I was wrapped in anger. “Don‘t use Herbert to oppress me. Even if I divorce him, I won‘t give him the
child.”
Caroline suddenly rose to her feet as well. “Be, a noble family like the Wharton Family will never allow
their bloodline to be left wandering outside. Given the influence of Herbert, will he let you take the child
away? Stop dreaming! You should kneel down and beg me right now. Perhaps I‘ll feel sorry for you. In
the future, when I take care of your child, I might be able to let you meet him once or twice. If you yell at
me again, don‘t even dream of seeing your child in the future!”
