A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 386 Apparently You Are Not Fertile

"Because if you die, I will take advantage of this chance to swallow the whole Xu family." He looked so serious as if he was not kidding her.

"You... you won't." She clenched her fists, her face pale.

"If you dare to die, I can make the Xu group change its surname. If you don't want this to happen, you have to live obediently." His voice was getting more and more threatening.

However, her heart was calm. She could tell that he was not serious. He was just trying to provoke her.

"Of course I don't want to die. Living is better than dying. I have a lot of things to do." With a faint smile on her face, she wanted to wait for Baron to wake up, waiting for her elder sister, Alice at the right time to come back safe and sound. She also wanted to wear the wedding dress that she designed herself to be the most beautiful bride, and then to travel around the world with Mili and Dot.

She had many thoughts and wishes, but...

"People should be prepared for the future so as to be fearless. I just did it in case," she said in a low voice. She didn't know when the virus would suddenly take effect, and when the next danger would come to her without anyone noticing. Her life could no longer be in her hands.

He held her tightly in his arms, fearing that she would disappear if he relaxed himself. "Even if the sky falls, I will bear for you." Let's live together and die together.

She nodded slightly and buried her head in his arms. Men were standing upright and strong. No matter how strong and powerful a woman was, she needed to have a strong chest to rely on when she was tired.

"Icy guy. Sometimes I just think that how nice if we are ordinary people. We can set up a small family and work together. It's really great to save money, buy a house, raise the children together." She

curved her lips into a charming smile, and there was a longing on her face.

"Poor people have their own troubles. Nowadays, if a man didn't have money or house, no woman would marry him, except you, a little fool." He touched her nose with affection.

"From ancient to present, males are supposed to build houses or buy houses for themselves, no matter they are animals or humans. But now the housing price was incredibly high. An ordinary family without family background, no ancestral wage earner couldn't afford it, and women naturally had to take part of the responsibility. It's much more worth marrying the one you love than getting a house," Essie said with a smile.

"A little fool like you who can neither read others' mind nor see through others' brains, it is safe for you to marry me. Otherwise if you marry the wrong guy, you will had a miserable life."

He flicked her forehead gently. Although it was a joke, it sounded quite reasonable. A man with hidden diseases was the safest. She didn't need to worry about women behind his back, nor did she guard against women who tried to plot against him.

She suddenly realized that the best thing she had done when she was a child was to let this icy guy have a hidden disease, which was equal to using an invisible chastity lock to lock his cavernous body. He couldn't make trouble with it even if he wanted to. The only thing he could do was to obediently bow down to her and be loyal to her. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

She thought and couldn't help laughing.

Zac thought she was amused by his words. He laughed too. "So you agree with my words?"

"Yes, I agree with you very much." She nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "In your heart, my greatest value is to warm the quilt, and in my heart, your greatest advantage is your hidden disease, I can let you out at ease, and I am not afraid of you cheating on me."

"So my hidden disease doesn't need to be treated at all. The more serious it is, the better, right?" he said with a teasing expression on his face.

"Yes, you don't need to cure it at all," she said teasingly as she gently bit his nose.

"You are arousing the fire in me."

Her face turned pale, "The fire was gone, wasn't it?"

"It could be aroused at any time for you." He smiled wantonly and gently pulled away her little hands protested on her chest. Under the state of her pretension to resist, he made it out with her gently again.

In the afternoon, Zac went back to the villa by the lakeside. He had to hand over the second antidote tomorrow, so he had to get in to please Leila today.

Leila no longer thought about Essie. The baby in Landis's belly was the greatest threat to her now.

She went out to greet him as soon as she saw him. She always thought that he must have stayed with Landis these days since he didn't come back at night during this period of time.

Now she was pregnant, so she couldn't do that too frequently. It was her good chance. She had to work hard and get pregnant.

"Zac, you're finally back. I feel so lonely at home alone at night. Don't go anywhere else, okay?" she said like a spoiled child.

"I'll be at home with you these days." Zac patted her on the shoulder and walked into the living room with her.

Leila asked the servant to bring tea and desserts to them. "Zac, what would you like to eat for dinner? I can ask Linda to cook for you."

"It's up to you," Zac said calmly. His purpose was to take the second antidote, not to eat with her.

After she went into the kitchen and got out, he said casually, "This morning, the hospital called to remind me that I have to inject another antidote to Essie tomorrow. Remember to prepare it and send it to the hospital tomorrow."

"I have told my friends that the antidote will be sent to the hospital tomorrow morning." An evil smile cracked Leila's lips.

Zac responded with an 'okay'. He picked up his tea cup and drank it slowly. He no longer paid too much attention to this matter.

Leila looked at him with deep eyes.

She thought over what he said just now, and felt that he seemed to have forgotten everything about Essie. He remembered it only because the hospital reminded him. And his tone was very calm, as if he were saying a very ordinary small thing. So, he didn't really care about Essie, but only put his heart on Landis now?

'Indeed, Landis is an actress. She is good at acting. And the skill of pleasing a man is much better than Essie.' She had been told that she was really good in bed. It was a miracle that Zac was not enchanted by her. Now she had a baby in her belly, which was more like a trump card in her hand.

And the trump card held in her hand became more and more weak. As a result, she was in a dangerous situation, and could be replaced at any time.

"Zac, are you really not going to deal with Landis's matter?" She pouted her lips and looked at him with an undisguised sense of crisis.

"I've asked her. If she wants to give birth, just let her. I can afford all the children. It is not a big deal," Zac said in a tone as if it was nothing important.

But Leila cared about this so much. How could she let this bastard exist and threaten her hard won status.

How could Zac not know what she was thinking? He stretched his arms to hold her shoulders. "You don't have to worry about it at all. Landis and the baby can't threaten your position. You should worry more about how to get the approval of the elders in the family so that you can enter the Rong family as soon as possible."

What he said was true. How could Leila not want to be accepted earlier? But she could not cut off the relationship with Qin family. She was abandoned at the gate of the orphanage. She didn't know who her biological parents were at all. Without Qin family, who could she rely on in the future? If she was wronged, who else would back her up?

"Zac, let's have a child as soon as possible. If we have a child, can't the elders of the Rong family accept me as their daughter in law?" She looked at him beseechingly.

"Last month we were not guarded. Why didn't you get pregnant? Every time when I was with Landis, I used a condom. It just happened that it was broken once. She then get pregnant. You are not fertile." Zac cast her a reproachful look.

Leila lowered her head and put her hand on her belly. She felt frustrated and depressed. She didn't expect that even though the man didn't wear any condom, he had secretly drugged her all the time without being noticed.

It was impossible for her to get pregnant without the Zac's permission. He was a very cautious person, not as foolish as Fred, who had been burgled at once.

Zac didn't plan to make her pregnant so early. He had to wait until the virus in Essie was cleared out.

"Zac, we should work harder this month. I'm sure to get pregnant," Leila tugged at his sleeve and begged. She had checked in the hospital and the doctor said that she was healthy and it was impossible for her not to get pregnant.

Zac sighed. "Don't pin all your hope on the baby. The greater your hope is, the more disappointed you will be. Since it was a rule set by her great grandfather, we could not violate it even if we had a child. And we have never short of grandchildren in our Rong family. It doesn't matter whether you have a child or not."

"Can't they make an exception for the sake of the grandson?" Leila murmured.

"You should know that business is war without bullets. We are fighting both openly and secretly against the Qin family. You are in an embarrassing situation now. It is absolutely impossible for you to become not only the daughter of Qin family but also the hostess of Rong family. It is also impossible even

if you have a child," Zac said in a firm tone, without any hesitation.

"But I'm not their daughter. I have no blood relationship with them." Leila started to shake violently as if she had been hit by a stick.

"In the eyes of the elders of our Rong family, the adopted children have no difference from the biological children. You are all the daughters of Qin family."" Zac looked at her with sympathy. "Consider it carefully. I know this choice is very difficult for you, but you have to make a decision, not at the cost of your own happiness."

"Zac, can't you put in a good word for me and plead for mercy?" She looked back at him pitifully, with tears almost running out.

But Zac didn't show any tenderness. Instead, he looked grim. "Leila, as my wife, you have to bear in mind. In my eyes and my heart, the interests of my family will always be put in the first place. No one can compare with the interests of the Rong family. Therefore, I will never do anything harmful to the family interests."
