Snare of Love

Chapter 217 I Do Not Misunderstand Anything

Jolene’s words stuck at her throat, she responded after a while.

“How long?”

Jayden parked the car by the roadside. He ignited the cigarette and kept silent.

Jolene did not urge him, she just waited for him patiently. She knew that he might suffer, as well as

Victoria because they only got along with each other for a short period.

“Give birth to it,” Jolene said calmly.

Jayden exhaled the white smoke, of course he wanted his baby to be born. However, would the baby

become an illegitimate child?

“I will call my family tomorrow and tell them I am ‘pregnant’. After she gives birth to the baby, I will say

that it is my baby. Give a justifiable identity to the baby, then after I leave, the Harris family and the

Nelson family can still be relatives. The child will grow up under the protection of both families. The

child will definitely grow up well under the care of the Harris family…”

“You are so keen to leave,” Jayden sneered, it was the first time he expressed his discontentment in

front of her.

Jolene bit her lips, she could not deny that it ended up like this because of her.

“Sorry…”

“I don’t want to hear that.”

Jayden interrupted her.

Jolene lowered her head. Except for apology, she did not know what should she say.

“After the child is born, I will let you go but you have to stay and take care of her in the villa in this

period. I don’t trust others to take care of her. She has the symptoms of miscarriage, the doctor says

that she needs a good rest.”

“Ok, don’t worry, I will take good care of her.”

Jolenedid not go back to the villa, she straight away went to the hospital. After confirming everything,

she announced that she was pregnant the next day.

Both the Nelson family and the Harris family were happy.

After that, Victoria was taken good care of, including her baby.

The maid and Jolene took care of her every day.

“Do you feel uncomfortable?” Jolene asked her after eating the lunch because she found Victoria ate

too little. She was afraid that Victoria was uncomfortable.

Victoria shook her head, “No but you are here…”

“Don’t be stressed, the baby in your womb belongs to the Nelson family, so it is mine too. I will try my

best to take care of you,” Jolene worried that Victoria would feel uneasy because no mother would be

willing to pass her child to others.

She grabbed a chair and sat beside the bed, she held Victoria’s hand, “the Harris family and the Nelson

family are united by marriage for the sake of their family interest, it is not because the love exists

between Jayden and me. Do you understand?”

the Harris family never set foot in business but they held the dominant position in the city. The economy

of the city depended on the business of the area. Nelson family was potential and good at managing

the business.

The Nelson family had experience in managing the business. If they wanted to develop their business,

they must get support from the officer in the area. Therefore, they will benefit a lot after the alliance.

It was beneficial for both of the families.

So, although they did not have affection for each other, they must sacrifice themselves for the sake of

their families.

Victoria knew that their marriage was not based on affection, it was just advantageous to their families.

“It is good for him to be the grandson of the Harris family,” Jolene stretched her hand and covered

Victoria’s abdomen. It was flat, it was not obvious that Victoria was having a two-month pregnancy, “I

can’t let you marry him in a right and proper way now…” This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“I know, if you divorce, it will spoil the relationship between the two families. They might become

enemy, let alone win-win cooperation. The baby will strengthen the relationship between the two

families, it is good for the future of the child as well because he is the grandson of the Harris family and

the Nelson family…” Victoria sobbed while saying, she understood everything but she was suffered.

“Sorry, I…”

Jolene wiped away Victoria’s tears, she knew that Victoria was suffered, she hugged Victoria, “Trust

me, I will let you marry him but the child’s identity should remain. If you have any resentment, just

blame me. If it is not me who finds you, you will not live sufferingly now.”

Victoria knew that she should not blame Jolene. If it was not Jolene, the Forbis family had reached the

end and her brother was jailed. She was willing to do so, she could not blame others.

“It is not your fault, I am willing to do so. It is all about fate. Actually, it is better for the child to have the

protection from the Harris family than following me…”

Victoria cried for the first time during the tough period.

Jolene did not know how to console her. Jolene just hugged her and cried with her.

She cried for the unfortunate fate and cried for not having any choice and freedom.

They calmed down after a long while.

“You rest well. Jayden will come later, I go back first,” Jolene stood up, Victoria grabbed her hand,

“Don’t leave.”

Actually, she was afraid of staying alone with Jayden.

Jolene patted her hand and consoled her, “He is a good man. If I don’t fall in love with my true love,

maybe I will fall in love with him.”

Jolene covered her with the blanket, “Rest well and relax. I am here, nothing will happen.”

Victoria nodded, she was always in drowsiness probably because of pregnancy. After Jolene walked

away, she lay and fell asleep afterwards.

Soon, she was woken by the talking noise.

In a vague state, she heard…

“This is the fetus,” the doctor pointed at something like a Ganoderma on the B-mode ultrasound and

spoke.

Jayden examined it for a long time, he did not understand how such stuff could grow into a baby.

“It is still young, you can see it clearly after two more months. A pregnant woman needs a lot of care in

this stage, you have to spend time to accompany her because you are the child’s father.”

Jayden nodded.

“She has undergone the body check-up today, she has recovered well. She can go back and rest after

two days. Your sister is nice, I see her taking care of your wife with all strengths. It is rare to have such

a nice sister.”

Jolene lied that she was Jayden’s sister to avoid others gossiping about them.

Jayden was stunned. Then, he responded and smiled perfunctorily. He sent the doctor out and walked

in after shutting the door.

He pushed the chair and sat by the bed. He looked at the woman lying on the bed. It was the first time

he observed her so quietly.

Actually, like Jolene said, she was pretty.

But he never looked at her carefully.

Victoria felt that someone was watching her. She moved her face to another side purposely.

Jayden stayed there for two hours and never left. Victoria wanted to go to the toilet, she had held back

her urine for an hour. She could not hold anymore and thought in her mind that why Jayden did not

leave?

Jayden looked at the time, he frowned. She slept soundly for the entire afternoon.

“Uh…”

Victoria pretended that she just woke up.

“Wake up already?” Jayden asked.

Victoria acted to be ignorant, she glanced at him and wanted to sit up. Jayden helped her up and put a

pillow behind her.

Victoria lowered her head, "Why are you free today?”

“I have something to tell you,” Jayden sat on the chair, “I will help you to quit your job, you don’t have

time to do it. You are not going to do it during your pregnancy.”

Of course, he did not do it by himself, he asked others to settle it. Then, Mr. Brown would not trouble

her.

Victoria nodded, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. We are not strangers to each other because we have to nurture the baby together. If

you want, let’s get married after giving birth to the baby.”

Victoria looked at him surprisingly.

She did not expect him to say that.

She did not know how to answer at the moment.

After a long while, she responded, “What, what do you say?”

Jayden wanted to smoke but he realized that she was pregnant. So, he suppressed his intention to

smoke and looked at her, “I say, after you give birth to the baby, let’s get married. Although we can’t

announce that the baby belongs to us, it is our responsibility to take care of him as his parents, right?”

Just then, Victoria’s phone rang.

Jayden looked at it, it showed “Victoria”.

Victoria said without hesitation, “He is my brother.”

She explained it subconsciously, Jayden looked up at her for two seconds and said calmly, “I don’t

misunderstand anything.”

Victoria realized that her explanation was obvious to have a meaning behind it.

She should not explain it in their relationship.

“I…”

Jayden passed the phone to her, “Pick it up.”

Victoria held back her explanation, she would make everything worse after explaining. So, she decided

not to explain anymore.

She picked up the call.

“I am in City B, where are you?”

It was Victoria’s voice.

Nathan was anxious, he quickly grabbed Victoria’s phone, “Victoria, where are you? I want to see you,

so tell me where are you now?!”
