Chapter 58
Bella’s POV Time passed very quickly. Soon, I was three months pregnant. There was almost no strong pregnancy reaction. I ate a lot during the meal as I was easily hungry. As a result, I became heavier and looked plumper. That night, Miranda put down her phone walked to me, and said, “Mrs. Wharton, Mr. Wharton said that he has something to deal with tonight and won’t be back for dinner.” I couldn’t help frowning. In the past half month, he was very busy. He hardly came back for dinner at night, and it was almost early in the morning when he came back everyday. I vaguely felt that something was wrong, but I couldn’t tell what exactly was wrong.
I didn’t eat much for dinner. I didn’t even finish a piece of steak.
In the bedroom, I watched a TV series while sitting in bed all night. It was almost midnight when he finally came back.
He asked, “It’s so late, why aren’t you sleeping yet?” His tone was a little strange. After all, I usually fell asleep at this time.
There was only the wall lamp and the faint light of TV in the bedroom. I saw that he seemed a little drunk, his hair was a uttle messy, and the collar of his shirt was slightly open. I was afraid that he had drank, so I got out of bed and poured him a glass of water. “I can’t sleep, so I watched a TV series.” Herbert took the cup, but he did not drink it. Instead, he turned around and put it on the cabinet
We didn’t continue to talk and fell into silence.
I felt that he seemed to be deliberately distancing himself from me.
But I couldn’t find any reason for him to distance himself from me. We didn’t have any conflict. This period of time was very harmonious.
Was it because I was too sensitive?
I restrained my emotions and said with a smile, “Have you been busy with your work recently?”
“A little.” Herbert answered as he took off his clothes. I took the clothes from him and hung them in my wardrobe. “Why are you back so late recently?” || asked again. “Oh, there’s a classmate who came back from abroad, so there have been a few reunion parties recently Herbert replied.
I didn’t continue to talk with him because I didn’t know his classmates and friends at all.
“I’m going to take a shower.” Herbert took his pajamas and went to the bathroom.
Looking at the door of the bathroom, I felt a little lonely. I wanted to laugh at myself. After returning from his parents’ home, I thought we were very close and we got along well.
in fact, we were still very far away I didn’t know anything about his past, and he has never introduced me to his friends and classmates
Did I really think I was his wife?
I told myself that I married him because of the baby in my belly
At this moment, I felt a little cold all over i laid down on the bed and got into the warm quilt I turned off the TV, and the wall lamp in the room looked very dim
Hall an hour later, I heard the subtle footsteps of Herbert approaching the bed
He got on the bed and turned off the wall lamp It was dark in the room
Although we were using the same quilt, but we didn’t have any physical contact
