    Chapter 549 How Dare You


    “She misunderstood,” Hank exined as he pulled his arm away from Cecelia and


    looked Yelena in the eyes. “I exined it to her clearly. There is no need to continue


    with the acting.”


    Cecelia was just about to squeeze out some crocodile tears but had to retract them


    upon hearing that. Immediately, she pouted her lips. “Why didn’t you say it earlier? I


    even had to pinch myself to squeeze out some tears. Don’t you know that it hurts?”


    However, Hank did not feel guilty at all. “Well, you didn’t give me a chance to speak


    the moment you entered. You have been rambling about your sperm supplier.”


    Sperm supplier? Yelena shivered and looked at Cecelia with a strange look. Cecelia


    only realized that Yelena must have misunderstood Hank’s meaning after pondering


    on her expression for a few seconds and immediately exined, “It’s not what you


    think it is. Hank meant the father of my child!”


    “The father of your child… You mean you’re pregnant?” Yelena instinctively repeated


    her sentence, and a few secondster, she pointed at Cecelia’s belly and asked in a


    trembling voice.


    “Yeah, it’s normal nowadays to be sleeping with your partner, isn’t it? Or are you


    implying that you and Hank have yet to develop to that stage? Hank might look


    cowardly and is a pure and innocent little virgin but don’t underestimate him just


    because he looks average and has never even dated before. After all, he threw away


    piles of love letters like trash. So, it’s normal that he doesn’t have any experience in


    that matter.”


    Cecelia patted Yelena’s shoulder with a solemn look. “You shouldn’t abandon him just


    because he’s a virgin. He can still be trained.”


    Yelena nced at Hank, leaving aside the fact that he had never dated before… She


    thought that it was a miracle that someone had the guts to write him a love letter


    because he always looked like someone owed him a lot of money.


    “Stop worrying about others and mind your own business first,” heshed out at


    Cecelia without having a single regard for the friendship. Only then did Yelena realize


    why Hankmented so confidently that he and Cecelia did not like each other and


    that any potential possibility of them eventually being together wasughable.


    s, Yelena also did not expect that she needed to y the role of peacemaker at


    this moment. She pulled Hank’s sleeve to signal him not to add fuel to the fire and


    then smiled to appease the about-to-explode Cecelia, “Okay, don’t fight. Cecelia, you


    have a baby in your belly. You shouldn’t get too riled up.”


    Cecelia nodded upon hearing Yelena’s words and held her arm while she looked at


    Yelena sympathetically.


    “Yelena, you’re such a cute girl. I just don’t understand how you could be with Hank. I


    don’t think he’s good enough for you. Why don’t you break up with him, and I’ll find


    you someone better? I met so many handsome guys when I was studying abroad. Let


    me bring you to see the world.”


    Hank instantly pulled Yelena behind him as if he was trying to shield her from Cecelia.


    His eyes darkened, and his tone became angry. “Cecelia, why don’t you find yourself


    a knight in shining armor instead of meddling in other people’s rtionships?”


    Cecelia no longer felt like messing around after getting reprimanded by him. So, she


    tossed away her phone in boredom. “Fine, then. Remember to protect your little


    sweetheart. You better watch out before someone else tries to pry her away from you


    since she’s so cute.”


    “Mind your own business.”


    At that moment, Yelena noticed a figure walking toward the door and knew that it was


    an excellent opportunity to get the two’s attention away from fighting each other again.


    So, she shook Hank’s arm.


    “We have a guesting.”


    He narrowed his eyes as he turned to look at the person at the door.


    It was a slender man dressed in a suit who exuded an aristocratic aura that made


    people hesitate to gaze at him casually. He was extremely handsome, with a high


    nose bridge and a pair of narrow ck eyes with a deep gaze. He was wearing a


    polite smile on his face but ceased doing that when he saw Cecelia.


    Nheless, he did not rush to speak but waited for Cecelia to notice him and speak


    first. As soon as Cecelia saw him, her body stiffened, and she instinctively wanted to


    cover her belly with her hands. Regardless, after a split second, she realized that she


    was only two months pregnant and her pregnancy was not showing yet. This thought


    immediately eased her worry.


    “Why are you here?” Cecelia’s tone was unfriendly, a far cry from her lively and bright


    self just now.


    Still, the man seemed familiar with her attitude and did not show an ounce of


    displeasure at her tone.


    Instead, he asked, “Where are you nning to run away to?”


    “What do you mean? Running away? I merely returned to my own country. We have


    nothing to do with each other. So, what’s your problem?” She crossed her arms, trying


    to look more imposing.


    “Of course, there’s no problem. But you’re wrong about one thing. We are in a serious


    rtionship.” He leaned forward slightly, lowering his voice a bit but loud enough for


    everyone around to hear him clearly.


    Cecelia responded by taking a step back and approaching Hank while secretly


    throwing a soothing look at Yelena as she held his hand.


    “Nonsense. I already have a fiancé, and we’re about to get engaged. You better show


    some respect.” She secretly pinched Hank’s palm, signaling him to y along.


    Hank did not say anything but carefully looked at the man in front of him; he felt


    intense hostility and killing intent from the seemingly gentle man. Well, it seemed that


    Cecelia had umted quite some love debt abroad.


    Regardless, Hank slowly extended his right hand and said politely, “Nice to meet you.”


    He neither admitted nor denied anything to lure the man in front of him to secondguess their


    rtionship.


    The man did not back down or intentionally make things difficult for him. Instead, he


    simply shook Hank’s hand and introduced himself, “Nice to meet you too, Hank. My


    name is Yozan Harley.”


    Hank was taken aback by the name as it signified that the man had a considerable


    background.


    The Harley Family was the best in the business circle, and the Damazios had both


    political andmercial connections with them. It would be an issue if the Damazios


    offended the Harley Family. Hank could feel a headache as he thought about this. He


    regretted asking Cecelia to help him in the first ce because now he had to clean up


    after her mess.


    “Baby, didn’t you say you wanted to take me out on a date? Are we getting Japanese


    or French?” The word ‘baby’ made Hank uneasy as he felt goosebumps appearing on


    his skin.


    He was unafraid of revenge from the Harley Family, but he could not stand the overly


    sweet nickname.


    He shot a nce at Yelena, worried that she might be a little jealous, but to his


    amazement, she had already sat down at some point. She was also enthusiastically


    watching the drama unfolding before her eyes.


    Yozan could not be easily fooled. He stared at Cecelia intensely, and this made her


    feel ufortable. “Baby?”


    “Is there a problem? We call each other baby all the time as we are a couple,” she


    retorted and stood even closer to Hank. “If there’s nothing else, return to Serna and


    stop bothering us.”


    Yozan chuckled at those words. “Did I spoil you so badly that you dare to say such


    things to my face? Should I punish you for dating another man behind my back or for


    lying to me?” He stepped closer, creating an oppressive atmosphere.Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
