Chapter 258: Chapter 258
Heir? Since when did she have his heir?
"You... what did you say? Your heir?" She was stunned, her voice choked and surprised, "I’m pregnant?"
The shock made her feel a bit excited, to the point that she momentarily forgot how he ignored her earlier, casting aside all her displeasure.
The corner of his lips twitched.
His deep black eyes looked at her abdomen: "There is, that’s our baby."
As the man finished speaking, she was placed inside a luxury car. Before she could recover, she heard Lucas Knight’s voice again: "Next month, go with me to New York to attend an event."
"Tomorrow, I’m going on a business trip, will be back in a week. Tomorrow, I’ll have someone deliver Nightingale Group shares to you... and you just have to sign a contract."
Was an announcement, a command.
Not a discussion or a request for her opinion.
Eva Nightingale agreed readily, his intention was to help her take back the Nightingale Group, she looked at him: "Thank you."
"Don’t rush to thank me, all you need to do is to be a good First Lady as per our agreement." The man’s tone was cold and aloof, "If you have any requests, just speak up, I can help you with anything."
The luxury car quickly returned to the villa.
After eating, Eva took a bath, then lay back on the bed, thinking about... the pregnancy.
She was indeed very surprised.
No wonder she’s been feeling nauseous and a bit sleepy lately, she thought she had some illness!
The sound of running water was still coming from the bathroom.
Lucas Knight was taking a shower.
She didn’t know how long it took, but the water stopped, the man walked out wrapped in a white towel, his abdomen’s muscular lines were just perfect.
He was holding a towel, wiping the water from his hair, after drying, he tossed the towel aside and walked towards the bed.
Eva noticed him coming closer, her head peeked out from under the covers, her eyes fixed on him as she asked, "Hubby~ what kind of agreement did you mention?"
She wasn’t stupid, nor forgetful.
She recalled that when they got married, there was an agreement, a contract, a contract marriage.
But he never mentioned a deadline.
The first time she suffered the dual blow of family and emotion, grieving, and ended up drinking too much.
She admitted that she was indeed a bit confused back then. However, marrying him, she had no regrets at all.
In fact, as time went on, she almost forgot about it.
This was already the second time he mentioned it.
"Someone will tell you tomorrow." His thin lips moved, his voice a bit cold.
"..." Eva didn’t say anything.
"Tomorrow I’m going on a business trip, there’s not much to tell me, hm?"
Eva was dazed, she hadn’t spoken yet when the man said, "Then is there anything you want to do with me?"
Didn’t he say she was pregnant? What else could be done?
How could he be good and bad at times?
Sometimes he’s distant, and sometimes he’s inexplicably nice?
"Since madam has nothing to say, then..." he didn’t finish.
Eva’s face flushed red, her fair little hand braced against his chest: "You... what do you want to do?"
He only smiled: "You don’t have to do anything! I’ll handle it!"
He had only a towel on, if he pulled it off...
And she was just in a nightgown, plus today he even said she was pregnant! She didn’t know if she should feel happy or shocked, but then he said she had to sign some agreement tomorrow...
