Free Web NovelChapter 1528: Chapter 1528: Did You Fall for Him?
Can she deceive her own heart?
Celeste Linden felt that there’s no deception at all, because she really doesn’t like Ethan Barnes, she really doesn’t like this devil who single-handedly destroyed her life.
"But unfortunately, Celeste, all of Ethan’s persistence means nothing now, because he married me, and tonight I can become his woman," Carlotta said with a laugh.
Celeste showed no expression, "Well, congratulations."
"Celeste, don’t leave tonight, just stay outside our door, I want you to hear with your own ears how I become Ethan’s woman," Carlotta demanded.
What kind of perverted request is this?
Celeste felt Carlotta’s heart was already unhealthy, twisted, that she actually wanted her to stay outside the door tonight.
"Why, Celeste, do you still want to refuse? You need to understand, I’m already the hostess here, Ethan indulges me everywhere, accommodates me, so you have no right to refuse."
Celeste took a deep breath, "Alright."
...
The grand wedding concluded perfectly, the guests had all dispersed, Ethan returned to his new room.
But at the door of the new room, he saw Celeste Linden, he looked at her, "You don’t need to stay here, go back to your room."
At this moment, Carlotta came out, happily holding Ethan’s arm, "Ethan, I don’t feel well tonight, we’re about to have our wedding night, I just let cousin guard the door, if anything is needed, I can directly instruct her."
Ethan glanced at Carlotta, furrowing his brows.
"Ethan, today is our wedding day, surely you wouldn’t quarrel with me for cousin’s sake, right?" Carlotta said.
Ethan pulled his arm out from Carlotta’s hold, lifted his foot, and returned to the room.
Carlotta knew she had won, she gave Celeste a proud look, then followed Ethan back into the room.
In the room, Ethan stood tall before the floor-to-ceiling window, silently lighting a cigarette for himself, at this moment Carlotta walked over, hugged him from behind, "Ethan, I’ve finally married you."
Ethan slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, speaking indifferently, "I’ve done everything you’ve asked of me, let Celeste go back to her room, she’s pregnant now, has been busy all day."
"Ethan, are you feeling sorry for her now?" Carlotta asked.
Ethan said nothing.
Carlotta laughed, "Since Ethan feels sorry for her, let’s hurry up with our wedding night, when we’re done, she can go back to her room."
Ethan slowly turned around, his slanting eyes slowly narrowed, looking at her with a dangerous and silent gaze.
Carlotta hugged his strong waist, "Ethan, let me be your woman, marrying you has been my dream for many years." ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"All these years, you were my only motivation to persevere, even though you transferred your affections and left long ago, I’ve been standing here the whole time."
Ethan silently finished his cigarette, then threw the butt into the ashtray, he directly pushed Carlotta onto the wedding bed.
...
Outside the door, Celeste stood quietly, the maids glanced at each other, no one dared to speak to her.
Now Carlotta was the hostess here, everyone knew Carlotta was targeting her, nobody wanted to offend the hostess.
Celeste didn’t care about these, but soon she heard noises coming from the bridal room, making people’s faces blush.
Inside, Carlotta was very excited, her sweet and charming voice kept floating out, "Ethan, I love you, I love you!"
Celeste felt nothing in her heart, she didn’t know what she was thinking, maybe she was thinking of nothing at all.
She just felt her stomach hurting, it started as discomfort, then swelling, and a sensation of downward pain.
Her face soon turned pale, like a sheet of paper, and gradually, cold sweat began to show on her forehead.
The time grew increasingly unbearable, every minute and second seemed like a long century, the noise inside continued, Carlotta’s voice circled around her ears like a curse, unable to shake it off, she wanted to persevere but with her sight turning black, she closed her eyes and fell to the ground.
In her final falling moment, she heard the surprised exclamation from the maids, "Miss Linden!"
...
Celeste woke up in her own room, a dim lamp was on, she felt very thirsty, so she struggled to sit up.
But a big hand quickly pressed down, "The doctor said you can’t get out of bed, you need to lie down and rest to protect the pregnancy."
Celeste looked up and saw Ethan Barnes, the groom tonight.
He had already changed out of the wedding attire, perhaps had just showered, wearing only a black silk pajamas, his short hair damp, making him look as handsome as jade.
Celeste quietly withdrew her hand, avoiding physical contact with him.
Ethan’s hand froze for a moment, his handsome lower eyelids dropped, blocking all emotions in his eyes, "Whatever you need, I’ll get it for you."
"I’m thirsty."
Ethan quickly walked over, poured her a glass of water, and fed it to her lips, "Drink up."
Celeste took the glass, didn’t require feeding, drank a sip, "I’m fine now, you can go back."
Between the two, there was a full oppressive silence, her rejection of him was written all over her face, Ethan’s gaze lowered, landing on her belly.
She had been pregnant for over two months now, but her belly hadn’t started to show, the doctor said she’s been too exhausted recently, she not only hasn’t gained weight but has become much thinner.
"Can I touch the baby?" He reached out, wanting to touch her belly.
Celeste avoided him, not letting him touch, "Ethan, if you really want this child, then let me go."
Ethan immediately pressed his thin lips, "Impossible."
Celeste’s lips curved into a mocking smile, "I really don’t understand what you’re insisting on!"
Ethan looked up at her, "Are you into Daniel Langdon?"
"What?"
"Daniel has shown some interest in you, surely you can see that?"
Celeste immediately placed the glass on the bedside table, "You should leave, I want to rest now."
Ethan, seeing her unwillingness to engage with him, anger built in him, he suddenly pinned her to the bed, leaning down to block her red lips with his.
Celeste’s pupils shrank, instantly struggled, Carlotta’s cries still echoed in her ears, she couldn’t accept his touch, "Let go of me!"
"Celeste, I sent a message to your phone, you saw it, right? Why didn’t you reply?"
"I married Carlotta, that was the happiest thing for you, right? You’re so eager to push me to another woman?"
"Are you interested in Daniel? Tell me, are you into him, you said you like gentle and talented men, now he meets all your requirements, have you fallen for him too?"
