Billionaire’s Mistress

“Why… Why are you here?” I looked at him in a daze for half a second before asking in surprise.

“I guessed you would come here for dinner, so I came here.” He smiled gently and said in a doting tone, giving people an illusion of showing love.

“Hello, Mr. Edmund. Do you still remember me? I’m Lorna, Leanna’s sister.” Lorna didn’t forget to hook up with Eugene and reached out her hand enthusiastically.

Eugene looked up at her with a faint smile on his face. “I have left a deep impression on Miss Lorna, so I won’t forget it.”

Then he didn’t shake hands with her.

“Mr. Otis, I’ve heard from my assistant that you’ve looked for me many times, but unfortunately, I’ve been very busy before and I don’t have time to see you. Since we meet today, why don’t you tell me what you want to see me about?” Eugene turned to look at the pale faced Otis.

I’ve also heard about it. Previously, Otis wanted to ask Eugene to let The Moor family go, so they asked for several times, but they were all refused.

Now that the crisis of the Moor family had been resolved, Eugene brought it up on purpose to embarrass him. Although the Otis was very shameless, he had to endure it. He only said in a low voice, “Mr. Edmund is busy with your work, so it’s understandable that you don’t have time to meet him. Now that the problem has been solved, you don’t need to worry about him.”

“Well…” Eugene smiled and didn’t go on.

At this time, the waiter came to order. Seeing that there were still three people standing at the table, he asked directly, “excuse me, are you with these two ladies? Do you want to change a big table for you?”

“No, thanks.”

“Okay.”

Almost at the same time, I answered no, but Lorna said yes happily.

The waitress was a little embarrassed, “well…”

“Brother in law, are you so mean that you don’t even want to invite us to dinner?” Lorna took out her unique skill of coquetry and said to Eugene.

Eugene looked at me and asked, “what do you think?”

“I…” I really don’t want to. How could these two people have such good appetite.

“Sister, Auntie asked me to invite you to our house. She missed you so much.” Lorna blinked her eyes, trying to establish a relationship with me in the name of Mother.

But when she mentioned my mother, I really lost my appetite.

I stood up and looked up at Evelyn. “Evelyn, the food here is not to my taste. How about we eat somewhere else?”

Hearing this, Evelyn immediately responded, “Okay, let’s go to have barbecue.”

Then she turned to Eugene and said, “Mr. Edmund, do you mind inviting us to have barbecue?”

“Of course.” Eugene smiled and pulled out the chair for me. Under the gaze of Lorna and Otis, we three left the restaurant without looking back.

When we walked out of the restaurant, we found a barbecue shop nearby.

As soon as I entered, a strong fragrance came, stimulating my taste bud.

Evelyn swallowed and sighed, “sure enough, my life is only suitable for barbecue. I’m afraid I can’t digest too advanced food.”

“Don’t worry. Next time I’ll invite you to that Japanese restaurant. I’ll definitely let you have some high-end food.” I teased.

“Miss Evelyn, do you like Japanese cuisine?” Eugene asked.

“It’s… not bad. I haven’t eaten anything very high-end, so I want to have a try.” Evelyn scratched her head.

Hearing this, Eugene smiled and said, “the restaurant you are going to today tastes not bad. If you want to eat high-end food, I will take you two to it next time.”

“Really? That’s settled then.” Evelyn said immediately, as if she was afraid that he would go back on his words.

“Whenever you are free, you can call me.” Eugene smiled and found a seat. Then I picked up the menu and handed it to her. “Order whatever you want to eat.”

“Oh, it’s a treat from a rich man today. I won’t stand on ceremony.” Looking at the menu, Evelyn’s eyes lit up. Without hesitation, she began to draw with a pen.

“Don’t order too much. I’m afraid you won’t be able to finish it.”

“Wow, wow, wow, you’re not married yet, but you care about his wallet? Leanna, don’t be so frugal. You two owe me this meal. I must eat enough!” As Evelyn spoke, she suddenly thought of something. She looked at Eugene and said, “by the way, Mr. Edmund, I have something to ask you. Do you want to abandon our Leanna?”

I know what she is going to say. I opened my mouth to stop her from talking nonsense, but it’s too late. Evelyn gritted her teeth and said, “you know Leanna is pregnant, but you still don’t care about her. Do you want to be an unfaithful man?”

Hearing this, Eugene’s eyes darkened. The smile on his face disappeared in an instant. He turned to look at me and asked in a deep voice, “is that so?”

I was stunned by his gaze and immediately lowered my head.

It was true, but the hero was not him.

Seeing this, Evelyn looked at Eugene in surprise. “Mr. Edmund, don’t you know that Leanna is pregnant?”

“I know.”

“Then you…”

“But I don’t know when I will be a heartbreaker.” Eugene kept staring at me with a faint smile on his face.

“Ah? If you don’t want to be a heartbreaker, then why…” Evelyn turned to lecture me. “Leanna, tell me the truth. Are you playing tricks?”

“I…” I felt like weeping but had no tears. How should I explain that Eugene and I are just ordinary friends?

“Leanna, I’m not blaming you. Look at yourself. You’re pregnant now and you’re going to be a mother. You can’t be willful. Mr. Eugene is a good man and he will be responsible for you. Just wait for Mr. Eugene to marry you.” Evelyn said earnestly as if she was an elder. Then she winked at Eugene and said, “Mr. Eugene, am I right? Will you marry Leanna?”

Eugene looked at me and said with a smile, “of course, as long as she is willing to marry me.”

Hearing this, I looked at him in astonishment.

Mr. Edmund, it was a joke.

“Oh my God, are you going to propose today? Don’t torture me, a single man. If you want to show off your love, you have to wait until I’m not here. I can’t hurt you.” Evelyn immediately covered her eyes, pretending not to look.

After the barbecue, Evelyn was so happy that she drank a bottle of beer. A little drunk, she was sent home by Eugene.

On their way back, Eugene sat on the driver’s seat and drove carefully. I sat on the passenger seat next to him. Looking out of the window at the street lamps that were retreating, I felt a sense of loss.

I really didn’t feel at ease during the dinner, but fortunately, it was all over.

Most importantly, Evelyn was happy.

No one spoke in the car. It was very quiet. The window was opened, and the wind passed through my ears. The sound was so loud that my hair was disheveled.

Eugene closed the window, turned on the air conditioner and adjusted the temperature to the minimum.

There was no wind, and the good sound insulation made the car instantly quiet.

Both he and I were silent. We could only hear each other’s breathing and the sound of air conditioner coming out of the vent.

After a long time, perhaps it was because the eerie silence made people feel embarrassed, Eugene finally opened her mouth and said indifferently, “your friend is very interesting.”

“What?” I was thinking about a lot of messy things. When I heard him talking, I didn’t react for a while. When I came to my senses, I only smiled with embarrassment. “You mean Evelyn? She is very interesting, kind and warm-hearted.”

“Can I take it as a compliment?”

I don’t understand why he said that.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

“As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Miss Leanna’s friend is so interesting and warm-hearted. I think Miss Leanna should be the same person.” He held the steering wheel with one hand and looked ahead quietly. His tone was half joking and half serious.

Hearing his words, I couldn’t help laughing. “You must understand me in this way, okay?”

“In that case, my enthusiastic Miss Leanna, can you do me a favor?”

“What ?”

“There is a bottle of medicine in the right pocket of my shirt. Can you take it out for me?” He said, looking a little painful.

It suddenly occurred to me that when I met him for the first time, he was not feeling well and fell on the ground. I immediately became nervous. “What… What’s wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?”

“I have a heart attack, but don’t worry. I’ll be fine after taking the medicine. Can you help me take the medicine? I can’t hold the steering wheel with one hand now.” As he spoke, the car began to slow down.

I didn’t dare to delay, so I put my hand into his casual suit and fumbled it. I felt that his hand was

As expected, I found the medicine bottle in the pocket and took it out.

“It’s one, right?” I asked based on my memory.

“Okay.” At this time, he had already parked the car on the side of the road. He picked up the water cup on the central control table, and I handed him a pill that I poured out. Seeing him take the medicine, his originally hasty breath gradually calmed down, and his pale face slowly recovered.

After he took the medicine and had a rest for a while, I asked carefully, “is your heart not feeling well?”

“It’s a born disease. It can’t be cured.” A bitter smile flashed across his face. “Did I scare you just now?”

“No.” I shook my head and said, “isn’t it a heart transplant operation now? If your heart is replaced, you should be able to recover, right?”

“How can it be so easy? The heart is not like other organs. It’s too difficult to find suitable, living and legal channels.” He said and sighed, “but it doesn’t matter. People will die sooner or later. It doesn’t matter if they die earlier or later.”

His words sounded a little negative. “Isn’t there anyone or anything in the world that makes you want to live?”

He looked at me and seemed to be thinking about this question. After a long time, he suddenly laughed. “When you ask this question, I think of two things.”

“What is it?” I looked at him curiously.

His eyes swept across my face and then looked at my belly. He smiled and said, “my fiancee and my unborn child.”

Hearing that he was making fun of me, I felt ashamed and annoyed. “Others don’t know the truth and misunderstand us. Why are you also like this now?”

He smiled and suddenly became very serious. “Does that man really abandon you?”

I was stunned.

“The father of your child.”

The topic about the child’s father was a pain that I would never want to mention. However, when Eugene asked this question, I didn’t feel it abrupt, as if this question was the most natural one to ask.

After all, he is the nominal father of my baby now.

No one was more qualified than him to ask who he was helping.

“He is getting married.” I looked forward not far away.

The father of the child is going to get married, and the bride is not me. Is there anything more miserable than this?

Eugene looked at me with concern, “then… What are you going to do?”

“Plan?” I shook my head. I have no plan at all.

If I can’t pay off my debts to Edmund, I don’t know what to do if my belly shows gradually four or five months later and Edmund finds out that I’m pregnant.

I’m not sure how Edmund will react if he knows that I’m pregnant with his child.

Will you keep the baby or let me have an abortion?

At the thought that he is going to get married soon and can’t keep this child, I feel nervous.

So from beginning to end, I have never thought of telling him that I am pregnant.

Even if there is only a 1/100000 chance to hurt my baby, I won’t take the risk.

He thought for a moment and said as if he had made a great decision, “maybe I can be the father of this child?”
