Chapter 255

He whispered, “You just said in your sleep, ‘Reynaldo, don’t take away my baby,‘ so…”
He looked up at me and said, “Are you really pregnant?”
“No!” I denied decisively, “How could I be pregnant? I have been taking birth control pills before. You suspected the same last time, and I didn’t get pregnant then either.”
Don’t always suspect everything for no reason. If having a baby is as simple as dreaming, then what do we need men for?
Reynaldo stared at me intently.
A pair of cold sharp eyes seemed to see inside my stomach.
He said, “After this business trip, I will take you to the hospital for a check–up.”
“No!” I frowned, “We agreed to check in a month later, I don’t want to go now, I’m scared, Reynaldo, I don’t want to go!”
Reynaldo frowned, his long fingers landing on my abdomen again.
Even through the fabric, his gentle touch made me break out in a cold sweat on my back.
Did he really start to doubt?
I’m so annoyed, why do I always talk in my sleep when I dream?
This man was originally suspicious and cunning.

I dared not move or say anything, afraid that he would become even more suspicious.
Suddenly, he looked up at me, his dark eyes like a deep sea, bottomless.
He said, “Esmeralda, if you are really pregnant with my baby, you must not go behind my back to have an abortion.”
You didn’t like my baby, but you couldn’t hurt him.
Otherwise, I would really…kill you!”
The man’s final words were chillingly cold.
I shivered suddenly.
I watched him carefully, but a hint of doubt arose in my heart.
Why did he think I would hate his baby?
And his tone was tinged with a hint of sadness and sorrow, sounding a bit strange.
I pursed my lips, about to ask him.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the cabin.
Reynaldo then straightened up and returned to his seat.
After a while, the cabin door was opened.
People did not see, a soft and weak voice drifted first.
“Reynaldo…”
I looked up and saw Kimberly running in with tears in her eyes, followed by a handsome flight attendant.

“Mr. Humphrey,” the steward said respectfully to Reynaldo, “this young lady said she’s feeling a bit unwell and wanted to see you. I thought she might be a friend of yours, so I brought her over.”
Reynaldo immediately looked at Kimberly with a hint of concern between his eyebrows, “Where does it hurt? Is it serious?”
Kimberly shook her head and said softly, “It’s okay, I just feel anxious when you’re not around. This is only my second time flying, so I’m scared.”
“Then you stay here,” Reynaldo said lightly.
The flight attendant hesitated, “I’m sorry, Mr. Humphrey, it is the regulation on the plane that each person has one seat to ensure the safety of the passengers. This young lady, she doesn’t have an extra seat here.”
“I’ll switch seats with her,” I stood up and said.
I didn’t want to share a room with Reynaldo either.
Just now, I was so nervous that I am still feeling extremely tense now.
“Isn’t this good?”
Kimberly immediately pretended to say to me, “The conditions in economy class are not good, not to mention crowded, and it’s not convenient to use the restroom. I’m afraid it will be too difficult for Ms. Duffy.”
I forced a smile and said, “Don’t worry, just stay here and let Mr. Humphrey take care of you.”
Reynaldo stared at me coldly, his fierce gaze as if I had said something wrong again.
