Billionaire’s Mistress

Eugene’s POV

“Dad, mom, why are you back? Why don’t you stay at the mansion to have lunch with Grandpa?”

The mother complained, “what do you want to eat? Don’t go to the mansion if you have nothing to do in the future. Don’t take the baby to your grandfather. See how he spoils Edmund and disrespects the elders.”

“What’s wrong? Did you quarrel with them again?” As soon as I heard this, I guessed what had happened.

At this time, father said, “don’t listen to your mother. She knows nothing.”

“I don’t understand. I just don’t understand why your father is so biased. The mansion has given a big house, and even the company is now under the control of Edmund alone. How about our Eugene? We have tried hard to run the company and it is listed. Has dad ever helped him? Is Edmund his grandson? We Eugene, right? In the past, Edmund also had congenital heart disease, but…” Mother began to count the grievances over the years.

I interrupted her in a loud voice, “Mom!”

Mother was shocked and looked at me with her eyes wide open. “What are you doing?”

“Leanna didn’t eat anything this morning. She is hungry now. Let’s go to eat first.”

Only then did she turn her attention back to Leanna. She asked gently, “Leanna, are you feeling better?”

“Thank you for your concern, mom. I’m much better now. It doesn’t hurt anymore.” Leanna replied meekly.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Mother nodded and said, “let’s go. Lunch is ready in the kitchen. Let’s go to eat something first. Don’t be angry for those who are not worth it.”

So the family went to the dining room for dinner again.

Perhaps it was because she didn’t have much breakfast that she had been exhausted the whole morning. Leanna ate two bowls of food in a row and didn’t put down her chopsticks until her belly was round.

“Why do you suddenly have a good appetite now? Don’t you feel sick?” I just feel it’s amazing.

“I don’t know why. Maybe I’m hungry.” She said with embarrassment.

After dinner, father went to the company. I stayed at home because I had to accompany Leanna.

Mother went upstairs to take a nap.

I ate too much at noon and worried about Leanna’s indigestion, so I took her to the garden for a walk.

After a few steps, I was about to speak when the housekeeper came over from behind. “Master, madam, someone is looking for you.”

I frowned slightly. There are a lot of people coming to my house to look for me, but Leanna has just entered this house and knows that there are very few people here. Who will come here to look for her?

“Do you know who that person is?”

The Butler said, “he said he is Mrs. Gu’s father. His name is Kerr.”

When Leanna heard the name, her expression changed abruptly. She reached out and grabbed my arm.

“Don’t worry. Since your father is here, we will go to see him.” I patted her on the shoulder to comfort her. Then I looked at the butler and said, “take him to the side hall.”

“Okay.” The Butler agreed and left.

I was about to go with Leanna, but she stopped me. “I’d better go to see him myself. You don’t have to accompany me.”

“What’s wrong? Are you afraid that he will be dissatisfied with me as his son-in-law?” I said half jokingly.

She stared at the ground in silence.

Seeing that she lowered her head and kept silent, I didn’t force her anymore. I just said, “Okay, if you want to see him yourself, I won’t be with you. But if there is anything, you must call me, okay?”

“Well, don’t worry. I can handle it myself.” She nodded and walked towards the side hall.

Leanna’s POV

I came in from the outside and saw father. He was completely different from the last time I saw him.

After all, she had taken Edmund’s money to dress herself up. She had a good meal and her face was red.

However, after all, he had a vulgar taste, and with the years he had spent before, his temperament had become obscene.

I walked straight to him and asked coldly, “what are you doing here?”

“What? You don’t want to see me?”

“If you have anything to say, just say it. If not, I’ll ask someone to see the guest out.” I don’t want to talk to him anymore.

“Well, you are really something, aren’t you? Now that you have married a rich man, you think father is a burden.” After blaming me for a while, he opened the door and said directly, “I don’t want to talk nonsense with you. I just want to ask you, why did you leave Mr. Edmund and marry him, Eugene?”

“It’s my business. It has nothing to do with you.” I don’t want to see him.

“It has nothing to do with me? What are you talking about? You are my daughter. How can it have nothing to do with me? Do you know that Mr. Edmund is very angry and he wants me to give him an explanation?”

“Did he ask you for an explanation?” I think it’s funny. It was Edmund who betrayed my relationship with him first. Why is he the victim now?

“Yes, he said that if I couldn’t give him an explanation, I would return all the money I took from him these years to him. How could I have the money to pay him back? Didn’t he force me to death?” Father said with fear.

When I heard father’s tone, I knew that he wanted me to pay back the money for him. Seeing him sell his daughter for wealth, I only felt sick.

“He pushed you to death, and you came to force me? Let me tell you, I have nothing to do with him now. How much money did you take from him, you should return it to him yourself. If you don’t have the money to pay back, you should give your life to him!” I was so angry that I almost burst into tears.

I don’t understand why I have such parents.

All of a sudden, I felt that I was so tired that I didn’t want to bear such a blood debt.

If possible, I really hope that I have never come to this world.

“Leanna, are you really going to be so heartless? I’m your father. Do you really want to see me being forced to death by Edmund?” He looked at me in disbelief.

“I would rather not have a father like you.” I said through gritted teeth.

“Well, well, well, you’ve grown up . You don’t want to help me, do you? Well, then let’s forget about it. I’m going to tell everyone that you’re with Edmund now. I’d like to see if you can still stay at home.”

I didn’t expect him to be so despicable. His eyes were full of shock and despair.

“Okay, go ahead. I have nothing to lose anyway.”

Except for the baby in my belly, everything I have now and this seemingly happy family is just a dream made up by Eugene.

“You… You…” he put on a pitiful look and looked at me. “Leanna, I’m your father. Do you really want to see Edmund get back at me? Don’t you know how terrible Edmund is when he gets angry?”

“You asked for it. Why didn’t you think about it when you took his money? Who is he? Is his money so easy to get?” I looked at my disappointing father. He was so hateful and pathetic.

This man had been in a daze for most of his life, and till now, he still didn’t understand what was going on.

“Why would I take his money? It’s all because of you. If you hadn’t reconciled with him, would I dare to ask him for money?” Speaking of this, he became even more confident.

Hearing his ridiculous words, I felt a chill in my heart. Enduring the grievance in my heart, I said word by word, “so it’s my fault? I hurt you. Do you mean that?”

“Or what? Isn’t it your fault? If you hadn’t had that kind of relationship with Edmund, I wouldn’t have misunderstood him as my future son-in-law. Naturally, I wouldn’t have dared to ask him for money again and again.”

“Well, it’s me who hurt you. Then you can use my life to pay your debt. You can ask him how much my life is worth. I’ll pay him back with my life, okay?” I’m really going crazy. I’m so excited.

He stood up from the chair and said to me, “I’m so lucky to have a daughter like you. I haven’t let you do anything yet. Well, you’re awesome. I’m afraid of you. Take care of yourself. I’m leaving now.” Then he walked out.

Eugene’s pov

I waited at the door, and as expected, I saw Kerr at the door. I immediately called him, “please wait a moment, father in law.”

He turned around and frowned at me.

I walked up to him and smiled, “since father-in-law is here, why don’t you sit a little longer? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

“So what? What’s the point of staying here?” He snorted.

I smiled and said, “father-in-law misunderstood. Leanna is your daughter. Don’t you know what kind of person she is? She is just throwing a tantrum on a child.”

think she is losing her temper now. Don’t you know what she said to me just now is like stabbing a knife into my heart…” he said, looking very distressed.

I watched his clumsy performance coldly. After a long time, I took out a check from my pocket and handed it to him. “Since father-in-law doesn’t want to stay any longer, please accept my kindness as an apology for not visiting you.”

The moment he saw the check, his eyes lit up, but he kept saying, “what? Do you think you can comfort me by giving me money? Go and tell Leanna not to piss me off like this in the future. ”

“Yes, yes, I will talk to her later. So, father-in-law, will you accept this check or not?” I said, shaking the check in my hand on purpose.

He had acted well and stopped pretending. He took the check and said to me, “I know you are a filial child. I will rely on you from now on.”

“Don’t worry, father. Now that Leanna is my wife, I will take her place and take good care of you.” I smiled respectfully, and my heart was full of contempt.

Seeing him take the check and leave happily, I sneered.

returned to the side hall, Leanna was no longer there. I asked the servant and knew that she had gone back to her room.

I went upstairs and came to the door of the bedroom. When I was about to push the door open, I heard sobs from inside.

My hand stopped in the air for half a second and finally put it down. I turned around and was about to go to the study when I saw Petra coming up from downstairs with a tray and walking towards my bedroom.

“Master, you are here.” Petra stopped.

I took a look at the tray in her hand and asked, “what’s this?”

“Oh, this is the bird’s nest soup my ladyship asked me to stew at noon, which is good for health. she was afraid that it would be difficult to give birth to a baby if she was not in good health.”

“Well, give me the stuff. She is resting now. You will disturb her if you go in.” I took the tray.

If she was really lucky, she should be the elder lady of the King family now.

Why did this poor woman meet Edmund?

After Petra left, I heard the crying stopped inside. When I came to my senses, I held the doorknob and slightly twisted it. Then I opened the door and walked in.

When I opened the door, I saw her walk to the sofa and sit down as if nothing had happened.

I knew she didn’t want me to see her sad face, so I just pretended not to know that she had cried. I put the tray on the tea table, opened the lid of the soup can, and said, “this is the bird’s nest soup mom asked someone to cook for you. Have some.”

She stretched out her left hand and was about to take the spoon. Seeing this, she took a step ahead and held the spoon in her hand. “I forgot that your right hand is injured. Are you not used to your left hand? Let me feed you.”

Before she could refuse, I scooped up a spoonful of soup, blew off the heat and put it to her mouth.

She didn’t refuse but opened her mouth obediently.

After a few bites, she waved her hand and said, “that’s enough. I’m full now and can’t eat any more.”

I put down the spoon, closed the lid of the soup pot, and stood up. “Let’s go. I’ll help you to bed and have a rest.”

As soon as I grabbed her slender arm, she raised her head and looked at me with her misty eyes. “Why don’t you ask about father?”

“If you want to deal with it yourself, I won’t ask.” As I spoke, I sat down next to her. “Leanna, I know you have no choice but to marry me. But now that we are a couple, I hope you can move on. Everything in the past has passed, and you need to face it seriously in the future.”

“I see. Thank you, Eugene.” Her eyes were red.

“If you really understand, don’t say thank you to me in the future. In fact, I am the one who should say thank you. You may not notice how happy my parents are since they know that you are pregnant with my child.” I changed the topic naturally and said to her with a smile.
