Chapter 1147 - 1143: A Moth to a Flame
Around eleven o’clock at night, the phone on the bedside kept ringing. Sophie Smith reached out from under the covers, fumbling a bit, and saw that it was a call from Asher Land.She dazedly picked up the phone and tossed it to Asher Land.
"What is it?" Asher’s voice was full of impatience. He glanced at the caller ID—it was Luke Land calling.
"Third Brother, I want to ask you something," said the excited voice on the other end.
"No time." Asher replied coldly and hung up the phone, tossing it aside.
But Luke Land is absolutely someone who doesn’t give up easily. Less than a minute after Asher hung up, Luke dialed again.
"Giving you one minute."
"Five months pregnant, do you think it’s okay to have AI?"
"..."
Don’t know how to look it up online?
"I just wanted to ask your seasoned advice, hurry and answer me," Luke seemed a bit impatient.
"What, you’re planning to do that with Eva Miller?" Asher sneered, "You really are pathetic, aren’t you."
With Eva Miller, it’s been so long and he still hasn’t settled things. Oh, wait, technically he did manage to once with Eva, or else where did the child in Eva’s belly come from?
"Ha, you’re one to talk. Didn’t you also take forever to settle things with Sophie Smith?"
"I was in bed with her by our third meeting."
"..." Did he really just say that? If he hadn’t used force, would Sophie have complied?
"I’m not like your authoritarian ways, I’m considerate, I’m kind, I care about Little Chili’s thoughts..."
"..."
Before Luke could finish, Asher hung up the phone, turned it off, and tossed it aside.
On the other end, Luke hesitated for a moment at the master bedroom door.
"Second Young Master, aren’t you going to sleep so late?" A maid passing by asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Oh, going in now." Luke responded, pushing open the door and stepping inside.
Eva Miller lay on the bed, possibly due to the warming weather, she had kicked off the covers a bit. She wore a pure white silk nightgown that clung to her skin. Due to pregnancy, her full bust was more prominent, the adorable buds clearly outlined. She didn’t sleep very soundly, so the hem of her dress had ridden up to her thighs, her long, straight legs were practically a naked temptation to him...
Luke’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and his steps were somewhat unsteady as he walked to the bedside, gently lying down beside her. Just as he got into bed, Eva opened her eyes, looking at him warily.
Aren’t pregnant women supposed to be sleepy?
How did such a small movement wake her up?
"What are you doing?" Eva hastily adjusted her skirt and then pulled the blanket tightly over herself.
"Nothing, just sleeping." Luke chuckled awkwardly twice, his large hand tugging a bit at Eva’s blanket, pulling it over himself.
With everything that had happened recently and his somewhat ’honest’ behavior, Eva didn’t kick him out of bed. After all, Luke often complained to her about how uncomfortable it was to sleep on the sofa...
He didn’t know why he was putting himself through this. Clearly, sleeping with her only made it harder on himself, yet he still acted like a moth to the flame, bringing about his own downfall.
