Stuck In His Heart

Chapter 175 Careful Words (2)

He did come home early, much earlier than usual.

The living room was clean and there was nothing wrong. Consuela could not see anything wrong but there was no need for Nancy to pretend to be nervous to deceive her.

Maybe just before she came in, someone had come to clean up the mess.

She shouldn't be blamed for thinking too much. When he was angry, he liked to smash things, as if he had been cursed by someone that could waste money.

Moreover, everything in the villa was sophisticated, and the price was also surprising.

She couldn't understand how rich people were.

She looked at the man up and down for a few seconds and immediately looked away. The man lowered his eyes, so she had no idea what he was thinking about.

He didn't want to see her so he pretended to be like this.

When she turned around to leave, she saw out of the corner of her eye that the man raised his hand and a white bandage was tied around his hand.

He was unwilling to do it for the sake of good looking. Moreover, it was stained with blood. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Without further thinking, she directly walked aside, intending to ignore this person.

However, the man didn't know what to do. He asked outright, "Why are you throwing a tantrum to me again?"

As soon as he finished speaking, she stopped in her tracks. She turned around to look at the man who was sitting on the sofa. There was some unknown emotion in his brown eyes.

"I thought you were tired and wanted to make some tea for you, but I didn't expect you to think so." She had a charming smile on her face and curved eyebrows, full of joy.

How ironic it was! If she was a woman of bad temper, she would like to remove the mask from his face.

Both of them looked at each other. There was less charm in his eyes but more coldness. He raised his thin lips and said, "you should know that you are a pregnant woman. When you are not allowed to go out, you should stay at home for rest."

Well, he would not allow it.

"What are you talking about? As a pregnant woman, it's better for her to move more and take care of her body, isn't it?"

"Are you doubting my words?"

Looking at the young man's casual, innocent face, Consuela clenched her teeth and suppressed the urge to beat him up.

"Birds in the cage are likely to die soon. They lose their ability to fly," she continued

A bird would need absolute freedom, not to mention a person with complete thinking ability and healthy legs.

"But you also know how dangerous it is for a flying bird to be accidentally knocked out and become some soup or something else." Said Richie with a smirk.

He had been waiting here for a long time today. He had thought that his attitude yesterday was a little bit wrong and wanted to make some compensations, so he could have got off work earlier.

But to his surprise, Consuela didn't pay much attention to what happened yesterday.

It was so funny that she followed her friend to see someone else shooting together.

"A straightforward person does not resort to insinuations. Are you trying to restrict my freedom now?" She was pregnant and she had passed the critical period. Why did he let her stay alone and feel depressed in this villa?

"I'm doing this all for you." The man demanded as he began to remove the bandage on his hand.

"You really need to take a mirror to have a good look at yourself."

She didn't want to pretend to be friendly any more and after she said that, she went upstairs, completely forgetting that she should make concessions in front of this man.

Suddenly, Richie tightened his grasp. More scarlet liquid flowed out of the wound and stained the bandage. A faint smell of rust permeated in the air.

He heaved a long sigh. He didn't know why he had become like this.

They had planned to have a good talk. However, things didn't go on like this. It was really a despicable thing to detain her freedom.

On the other side, after receiving the suspicion of Richie towards Cassie, Tim also thought about it. The answer was exactly the same. He had deep doubts about the woman who could not keep her mouth shut.

He took out his phone and dialed the number. The person on the other end of the phone was surprised. She even forgot to act like a spoiled child at the beginning and said in a low voice, "it's rare that you will call me on your own initiative. Do you miss me?"

When he was waiting anxiously, the woman on the other end of the line changed her tone, as if the one on the other end of the line had just received a stranger's phone call.

"Go ahead if you have something to say or I'll hang up directly. I'll give you three seconds to open your mouth."

When the woman counted to the last number, Tim finally recovered from the unfair treatment. He cleared his throat and said: "did you say something that you shouldn't say to Consuela?"

As if afraid that woman could not hear what he had said, he raised his voice and reminded, "such as the thing three years ago."

Suddenly, Cassie stopped moving her finger around the telephone line. She sat up straight at once and sneered, "What? I did all the bad things? Do you want to injustice me?"

Although she said so, it was better to deny it in some special circumstances.

She rolled her eyes and began to search for the answer in her mind.

'Did Consuela expose me? No, if that was the case, he would never speak in such a tentative tone. He just wanted me to give myself away.'

He was so upright and helpless.

"As far as I know, few people know what happened three years ago and you are close to her."

As if he was quite confident, Tim said, "If you admit it now, I can give you a remedy."

Only the person who gave the pictures and gave instructions to Consuela would be able to complete the plan.

"If you keep slandering me like this, I won't forgive you." Cassie flicked the dust in her fingers. Her tone was very serious, but there was a smile on her face.

She saw a new intern sitting opposite her. The two of them were going to inspect the ward on foot to teach her.

But when she just put on the doctor's uniform, her phone rang. The intern looked at the words of the person on the other side of the phone and her expressions, feeling somewhat horrified.

As expected, if she were him, she would not perform so well.

"It's not surprising that you have these photos. But don't you think it's immoral to show them to Consuela?"

The next second, Tim decided to persuade Cassie.

Hearing this, Cassie was about to spit blood. The smile on her face started to take off like a cracked mask.
