Chapter 23 Swimming


    The eleventh floor was like another world. Its walls were covered with expensive oil paintings, and even


    the suite was excellent. Behind therge French windows, there was a view of the endless sea.


    Luke ran into a business partner on the cruise, who kept inviting him over for a chat.


    Having no choice, he had to ask Isabe to babysit Rachel.


    Isabeughed: "Don''t worry, I will take good care of her."


    She then brought Rachel to hang around in the cruise ship.


    The restaurant was very big which served delicacies from almost all countries. After being pregnant for


    two months, Isabe became especially into sour food. She even had that sour Spanish soup a few


    bowls in a row.


    Just then, Rachel pulled Isabe''s clothes.


    "What?" Isabe asked, following Rachel’s gaze, she saw a few little guys in swimsuitsing into the


    dining room. It seemed that they were going swimming after meal.


    Isabeughed: "Do you want to go swimming?"


    With great desire, Rachel nodded.


    Isabe asked the staff where the swimming pool was, and packed herself a box of sour plum cake


    before they left.


    The huge swimming pool was open-air, which was on the deck. There were many kids ying around.


    Isabe was afraid that Rachel didn''t know how to swim so she prepared her a swim ring.


    Unexpectedly, Rachel jumped into the water and floated out again after a few seconds. She them


    smiled Isabe sweetly.


    Seeing that, Isabe allowed her to swim as she wanted. Then she sat on a beach chair and started to


    eat the sour plum cake that she had packed, feeling veryfortable.


    Gradually, many beauties in all kinds of swimsuits also came to swim, showing off their great figure.


    Looking at them, then at her arms and thighs which were getting fat, especially her round belly, Isabe


    became more upset.


    If she was to be out of shape due to pregnancy, would she look a few years older after the baby was


    born?


    Isabe grumbled as she stuffed the cake into her mouth. Vaguely, she heard a familiar female voice. It


    seemed to be Christian''s special assistant, Lexie.


    Looking towards the direction of the voice, Isabe saw Lexie was holding and swaying a man''s arm on


    a bench chair.


    "Mr. Yates, Please consider the development case in the western suburb, will you? "


    "Okay, I''ll consider it."


    The forty-year-old man kneaded Lexie''s chubby buttlock p, while Lexie just pretending to reject


    before letting him do what he want. They even kissed.


    Isabe:"..."


    After making sure that they didn''t noticed herself, Isabe made a phone video of them. She felt


    annoyed for Christian''s clumsy taste of women for some reason.


    She once thought Christian had found a good girlfriend, who turned out to be a courtesan!


    Without noticing Isabe who spied on them, they flirted for a while before leaving. She then released


    Christian from the cklist and was about to send him the video.


    But she hesitated when she was to send it.


    No matter what, she had already divorced with Christian. Would he say that she was too nosy if she


    sent this video over?


    Send it or not?


    Just when Isabe was still hesitating, she saw Christian, changed into a casual attire, walking towards


    her now withrge strides.


    Isabe closed her phone and lied down, pretending to read a magazine.


    After Coming over, Christian directly sat down besides her with his hands crossed slightly, asking:


    "Where''s Luke?"


    "Busy with his business."


    Hearing that, Christian frowned: "He left you here alone?"


    Isabe felt so puzzled.


    Why couldn’t she see him when they were still married? And why did she see him every few days after


    the divorce?


    "I''m lying here as I''mfortable." Isabe said coldly, "He''s way better than someone who only came


    home once a week!"


    Hearing that, Christian''s face darkened. Looking down, he saw her clothes which had been lifted by her


    belly. His eyes was full of doubt and suspicion, with no effort to repress them.


    After he left the washroom that day, he felt that something was wrong.


    They had only been divorced for less than two months, so Isabe shouldn''t have a rtionship with


    Luke in such a short time. Also, pregnancy was not a easy thing, and he reckoned the child was his at


    a great possibility!


    Feeling that even his eyes were burning hot, she covered her belly with her hands.


    Did he figure out something?


    Christian then asked casually: "When did you move in with Luke?"

    "After we divorced."


    "After we divorced?" Christian frowned: "Then when did you find out your pregnancy?"


    Isabe''s smile was somewhat frozen.


    He had dominated the conversation from the start, leading her into the trap.


    But Isabe was not that stupid. She calmly said: "This has nothing to do with you, Mr. Miller. After all,


    we are not that close."


    "Isabe, how long exactly have you been pregnant?" Christian was impatient.


    "Mr. Miller, this is not interesting." Isabe said, "You asked me before in the washroom and I’ve told


    you. But now you are asking again, aren''t you bored? I still clearly remember those terms in our


    contract. "


    Staring at her, Christian became silent.


    Yes, he said that he didn’t want any children within four years, as he was afraid it would be a burden


    when they divorce. But he never said that he wouldn''t be responsible for the baby if Isabe got


    pregnant.


    Deep from his heart, he actually hoped that the child was his. Although he said they should not bother


    each other after the divorce, he became even more agitated during these days.


    Especially when he returned to their previous apartment, where there were not a single trace of her


    makeup, clothes, or even a single trace of life. He felt so empty.


    He felt even more irritated when she mentioned Luke from time to time.


    "Mr. Miller, I''m sorry, but I''ll leave first." After all, Christian was very good at business negotiating. She


    was afraid that if she said a few more things, her secret might be exposed, so she found an excuse to


    leave.


    When Luke returned at around 8 pm, Isabe went for another meal with him.


    She didn''t know why, but she became hungry very easily after getting pregnant. She often had several


    meals a day, and may even get up at midnight to look for food.


    Luke didn’t have much appetite as he drank some in the afternoon, so he just watched Isabe and


    Rachel eating.
