In the hospital, Nellie fell asleep under the care of Bonnie, unlike Alina, she had always had a good appetite.
She just never got good care before when it came to food, but now that she had Bonnie, she was eating well too.
Poppy’s desserts were good, but as she could not eat too many sweets, she could only have some low-sugar fruit jelly every day.
She always felt uncomfortable when she was asleep.
Dazed, she opened her eyes and when she saw a dark figure sitting beside her bed, Nellie screamed in fright.
Anxiously, she reached out and tried to turn on the bed light.
Yet the man’s warm palm gripped her slender wrist, “It’s me.”
It was a low voice with a familiar crispness.
When Nellie heard that it was Andre, her body broke out in a cold sweat of fright, and her heart was in her throat.
Andre felt her trembling and turned the bed light straight on.
In the bright light, Nellie could see Andre’s scarlet eyes, and the stubble on his chin looked vicissitudes.
He was quite haggard, as if he hadn’t rested well for a long time.
Sensing her nervousness, Andre laughed softly, “What? Afraid of me? And know you’ve gone too far?”
Nellie, “Let go of me.”
Andre grabbed her wrist and looked at her already huge belly, she was still so thin, just her belly a lot bigger.
In there, was their babies.
Subconsciously, he was about to reach out to touch her stomach, but Nellie looked at him defensively and shook off his hand.
Andre’s eyes were already scarlet, but now that he saw her resisting himself like this, those eyes became even more red.
This gave Nellie an illusion, as if he had all the aggression in his eyes.
Buy how could this man be aggrieved? It was good enough that he did not make others aggrieved, who could make him aggrieved?
When Andre let her go, Nellie shrank back on the bed. She subconsciously wanted to reach for the phone and call Alina, but was worried that her action would anger Andre.
This man was a madman, what if he hurt the babies? When she thought that, Nellie could only hold back.
How could Andre not see what she was thinking? He laughed bitterly, “Do you think I will hurt you or the babies? Don’t worry, I’m not that beastly.”
“You are.” Nellie said without hesitation.
The air, once again, was quiet.
The two confronted each other.
Andre laughed, not knowing whether he was laughing at himself or at the fact that Nellie would think so much of himself, and there was even some helplessness in that laugh.
When Nellie saw him laughing, she became even more nervous, fearing that he might go crazy again.
Andre looked at the time on his wristwatch, it was late, and said, “You sleep first, we’ll settle the score when you wake up.”
Was he sure that this was for her benefit?
Originally, seeing him had made Nellie sleepless, and now that she heard him say this, Nellie was even more nervous.
Andre asked as Alina was opened wide her eyes, “Don’t want to sleep?”
“How can I sleep while you’re here?” Nellie was angry, all she wanted to do now was to send Andre away and then figure out what to do.
However after Andre had suffered her once, he would never let her slip out from under his nose now.
He said, “So I’ll go and sleep with you?”
“No.”
As soon as she heard that he was coming up, Nellie was even more scared. Seeing the man looking at her, Nellie only felt that her body had a sense of oppression and did not dare to move.
Eventually, under Andre’s oppressive gaze, she lay down stiffly, “I’ll sleep, I’ll sleep.”
Nellie lay down and tried hard to close her eyes, but her ears were always listening for the movement of Andre, who never came up.
Without being shameless as before, he just sat quietly by her bedside, but even sitting quietly like this made Nellie feel a lot of pressure.
But now she was too afraid to say anything but to fall asleep in silence.
Andre didn’t go to bed either, he just sat by her bed all night.
The next morning, when Alina came over, she saw Andre in the ward, she subconsciously had to turn around and flee.
However, just as she turned around, she was called by Andre, “Stop right there.”
Alina wanted to go to Chester.
However there were so many of them guarding downstairs, as well as the Byrne family, so how on earth did Andre get in here?
The more she thought about it, Alina felt that Andre was a very scary person.
Andre, “Turn back.”
Alina, “…”
Nellie, who had forced herself to sleep until 3am, now opened her eyes in a daze.
Bewildered, she looked at Andre and then saw Alina.
At that moment it was as if she had seen a saviour, but she did not know that Alina was now in a difficult position to protect herself.
“Alina, you’re finally here.” Nellie subconsciously wanted to get out of bed.
However, with a cold look coming from Andre, she meekly retracted her feet, asking Alina for help.
What she wanted most last night was to call Alina.
And Alina was raging against Andre before, but now when Andre was really standing in front of her, she wimped out.
Dryly turning his head, Andre’s brain hurt with anger when he saw that Alina was already pregnant.
Last night he was still thinking that Nellie couldn’t be scolded for she was pregnant.
But he could clean up Alina, but now…
“What shall I say?” It was only a short time ago that she was even pregnant with Chester’s child.
And unbeknownst to Andre, the child was conceived when Alina’s sanity was not really clear.
She wasn’t even much sober yet.
And the first thing she did when she came to her senses was to confront him.
Alina smiled dryly, “Brother, you’re really here.”
“And you know I’m your brother?”
“With what you said then, do you think I can have you here?” Alina muttered.
Did Nellie know what Andre had said at that time or not? Right now, it seemed that she didn’t know anything at all.
Andre was really too cunning.
What he had said to her on the phone at the time, this was something he hadn’t dared to say to Nellie at all, right?
When Andre heard Alina say that, he glared at her, telling her to shut the hell up.
At that time, those words were said in his anger, and during this period of time on the path to Sinantu Pavilion, he thought a lot and carefully calculated the time of Nellie’s pregnancy.
He should be the father, after all, she hadn’t been to Yupto since she left Shirling.
Seeing the warning look in his eyes, Alina grunted, “Now you regret it? Then why did you say those words back then?”
Andre gave her a look again and Alina meekly shut up.
She was actually afraid of this brother, and Nellie didn’t expect that Andre’s look would shut her up.
Alina was so confident before, but now it seemed that she was unreliable.
