CHAPTER 127: CHAPTER 127: PREGNANT?

Even the button on the collar was missing one.

So, what Sylvia just said, Elias Warner and she went for a walk, was it to do that sort of thing?

That’s why she was panting so heavily when she came back.

Surely they must have used a lot of energy together just now.

Annelise Winter retreated several steps, feeling a suffocating tightness in her chest.

"Annelise, are you okay? You don’t look well, let’s go to the room!"

Without realizing, Annelise was pulled by Sylvia towards the room Mama Langdon had prepared.

By the time she came to her senses, they were already in the room.

"Annelise, are you upset? Annelise, I consider you my best friend, no matter what I do, you’d bless me, right?"

Sylvia clasped both of Annelise’s hands.

Hoping to find answers in her eyes.

Annelise quickly withdrew her hands from Sylvia’s, feeling a bit guilty.

"Annelise, I know you’re the best, previously, when you were just confirmed not as the Winter Family’s daughter, you ran out with nowhere to go, the two of us hid in this room, I kept you company crying through the night!"

Sylvia recounted past events, one by one, about how she helped Annelise, how good she was to her.

Annelise frowned, uncertain of what Sylvia was trying to say.

"So, Annelise, we’ll continue to be good friends like this, right?"

"Sylvie, you’re overthinking, why suddenly ask this question? Aren’t we always best friends? Or do you have something you’re keeping from me?"

Annelise wanted Sylvia to be honest, maybe she’d feel better inside.

But Sylvia answered awkwardly: "No... nothing!"

"Annelise, why do I feel like you have something on your mind? Do you have something to tell me?"

Sylvia asked deliberately.

"No, I always tell you everything!"

"Alright, Annelise, let’s sleep together then."

The two went to wash up.

"Ugh"

Sylvia’s sudden retching broke the quiet atmosphere between them.

Annelise stared at Sylvia in surprise.

Could she be pregnant?

Annelise asked, "Sylvie, what’s wrong?"

"Recently, maybe I ate something wrong, my stomach feels a bit unwell!"

"Oh!" Annelise didn’t believe it, she felt it wasn’t as simple as an upset stomach.

After finishing washing up, they went directly to bed.

The two lay on the bed, each with their own thoughts.

Annelise lay on the bed, tossing and turning.

"Ding"

The text message broke the quiet.

Annelise picked up the phone to look.

It was from Elias Warner.

"Come downstairs, hurry!"

Annelise quickly moved the phone to the other side.

"Already asleep, going directly to work tomorrow!"

Annelise didn’t want too much entanglement with Elias Warner, given that his official girlfriend was here.

"Come downstairs, don’t make me come up directly!"

Elias Warner sent another message.

"No!"

Annelise nearly sat up from the bed.

"Hurry!"

"Okay, I’m coming!"

Annelise turned to look at Sylvia.

Seeing Sylvia sleeping soundly.

She quietly went to the door, heading outside the room.

She reached outside the villa, but didn’t see any car.

She took out her phone, ready to ask Elias Warner where he was.

"Across the road!"

When Annelise saw these four words, it was as if she saw Elias Warner’s grim face.

As she looked up, she indeed saw Elias Warner’s grim face.

He was still in his suit from the banquet, sleeves rolled up, leaning against the car, staring at her.

Since it was a villa area, there were no other vehicles.

So, Elias Warner’s every move was clear to Annelise.

Elias Warner’s cold gaze seemed to be hiding a knife.

Annelise frowned.

Wasn’t he supposed to have left?

Didn’t Sylvia say he had left?

Why was he still here?

Annelise crossed to the road, wrapped herself tightly in her plaid coat.

The late autumn night was cold, even some cold dew fell on her, feeling like moist droplets.

She stopped about forty centimeters away from Elias Warner.

Elias Warner suddenly pulled Annelise over.

Her body tilted, falling into Elias Warner’s arms.

"Ugh"

Before she could speak, Elias Warner’s kiss fell like rain.

No matter how Annelise struggled, his large hands tightly encircled her slender waist.

Making her unable to resist.

Until Annelise nearly had trouble breathing from the kiss, Elias Warner finally stopped.

Suppressing his emotions, he pressed Annelise against the car hood.

"Why choose Lucas Lowell? Do you know what kind of person he is?"

"What? I don’t understand you," Annelise avoided.

"Don’t understand? You’re playing dumb?"

"No problem, he’s just a good friend of my best friend!" Annelise shouted back.

"No problem you’re so close to him? Even staying over at his house?" Elias Warner’s eyes flared with uncontrollable anger.

"So, did you sleep with him, or did he sleep with you?" Elias Warner held the back of Annelise’s head, asking.

"I did not, what are you talking about!"

"Then let me check!" Elias Warner pushed Annelise under him again, his hands going inside her coat.

Annelise raised an eyebrow.

She stared at Elias Warner in disbelief.

"Elias Warner, what’s your relationship with my best friend? Aren’t you afraid of her finding out? This is right outside her house!"

"What? What do you mean by this? I am your creditor!"

"Heh"

Elias Warner laughed coldly, this woman, what has she been doing?

Tangling with Lucas Lowell, yet questioning his relationship with Sylvia.

It’s really funny.

"Ugh"

Elias Warner couldn’t hold back his anger, directly moving forward, pinning Annelise against the car.

"Elias Warner, stop, we’re on the road, what are you doing? Aren’t you afraid of being seen?"

"What difference would it make if we’re seen?"

Elias Warner leaned in again.

"Buzz buzz... buzz buzz"

The phone jumped and bounced on the car hood.

Elias Warner picked up the phone, the call was from Lucas Lowell.

His icy eyes held deep chill.

"What are you doing?"

Annelise was somewhat frightened, unsure if it was because of guilt, or something else.

"Answer it, or I’ll answer it for you!"

Elias Warner said coldly.

He wanted to see how far Lucas Lowell and Annelise’s relationship had gone.

And what do they usually talk about over the phone.

Annelise took the phone, pressed the answer button.

"Annelise, why aren’t you in the room? Where did you go?"

"Sylvie said you were just there, but suddenly you disappeared, where are you? You didn’t go back, did you?"

Lucas Lowell asked anxiously.
