HONEY, Love Me One More Time novel Chapter 130

“But you are still living in the hospital. How are you going to settle down with two children in such a situation?” James said.
Estelle had made a plan for her future life before.
She was recovering well and had a job. After being discharged from the hospital, she will rent an apartment and hire a nanny to take care of the children.
Since Yohan was already five years old, he would go to kindergarten, and the teachers would look after him. As for Yvonne, she was too young, so Estelle decided to ask Bob if she could go to work taking Yvonne with her or work from home.
“I’ve paid for this room for a month. You can live here with the children first,” James added.
“How much does it cost? I’ll pay you back,” Estelle nodded and said.
“I’m not asking you for money,” James said helplessly. 
“I know that, Mr. Harris. You’ve helped me a lot, and I am very grateful to you for taking care of Yohan for so long. Since I can stand on my own two feet, I shouldn’t be still dependent on you. Please accept the money,” Estelle said as she looked at him sincerely.
James sighed heavily and said, “All right. I know what you are thinking about. You just don’t want to owe me anything.”
“I...”
“Estelle, I know what you mean. I like you, and I can see that even if you don’t love Cristofer anymore, you won’t fall in love with me. But it doesn’t matter. It’s also good that we can be friends. You have a crush on somebody else now, right?” James said.
Hearing this, Estelle didn’t know what to say. After hesitating for a few seconds, she nodded and admitted it, “Yes.”
“Is he good to you?” James asked.
“Yes, he treats me very well,” Estelle answered.
“That’s good,” James said with a smile. “I hope you can live a happy life with him in the future. Wish you all happiness.”
After they ended the conversation, James hurriedly left for the airport.
When Yohan woke up and knew that James had left, he felt a little depressed.
Fortunately, he was optimistic and soon became happy again. And he said that the next time James returned, he would spend more time and have fun with him.
While Estelle was lost in thought, her phone beeped and wrenched her mind back to the present.
‘Will you come back?’ The message from Mr. Mysterious came.
‘Where should I go back?’ Estelle replied to him.
‘Either the Grand Hotel of Hadale City or the hospital is okay. Estelle, I don’t want you to live in the room that another man who likes you lived in before. I’m jealous.’
Seeing the message, Estelle couldn’t help smiling and then replied quickly. 
‘But I have to take care of my children. It’s inconvenient for me to live in the Grand Hotel of Hadale City.’
‘Why is it inconvenient?’
‘The children will be noisy. Don’t you mind?’
‘Of course not. Estelle, I will take them as my own children and be good to them.’
Estelle then remembered that Mr. Mysterious once said that he wanted her to give birth to a child for him.
Thinking that Yohan and Yvonne were not related by blood to him, Estelle was somewhat hesitant. Then she changed the topic.
‘Sir, have you finished the things that you mentioned before?’
‘Not yet. It will take some more time.’
‘Okay. I see.’
‘Estelle, I’m sorry to keep you waiting.’
‘It’s okay. I’m not rushing you. I was a little anxious in the past few days. But now my children have come back to me, and I’ve regained my peaceful mind. Sir, I’m sorry that I was too impatient and made you feel troubled. Since you didn’t want to tell me about your identity, you must have your own difficulties. I shouldn’t have forced you. I won’t ask you about your identity anymore. You are right. It’s good for us to be together in the current state.’
After receiving the message, Mr. Mysterious called her directly.
“Hi, Sir,” Estelle answered the phone and said.
“Estelle, thank you,” Mr. Mysterious said in a hoarse voice.
Estelle chuckled and asked, “What do you thank me for?”
“Thank you for coming to me. I thought that I would die alone. I thought that I would live the rest of my life in loneliness with no one caring about me. But thank God you came to me,” Mr. Mysterious said.
Hearing his words, Estelle felt something wrong with him and asked worriedly, “Sir, are you okay?”
“I’m fine, Estelle. As long as you’re with me, every day of my life will be fine,” Mr. Mysterious said with his voice more husky than usual. And his gentle tone and heartwarming words made Estelle’s heart miss a beat.
Estelle took a deep breath and said, “Sir, I... I...”
“What’s the matter?” Mr. Mysterious asked.
“I want to say if...” Estelle stammered and felt a little embarrassed.
“If what?”
“If I’m up to it, I’m willing to do as you want.”
“You are willing to... do what?” Mr. Mysterious asked in confusion, not knowing what she meant.
“I’m willing to give birth to a baby for you.”
“...”
“I have thought it over. If I can recover and won’t relapse, it will be best, and I’ll live a happy life with you and the children. But if I can’t live long, I hope that our child can keep you company so that you won’t feel lonely.”
“Estelle,” Mr. Mysterious called her name gently.
“I’m listening, Sir.”
“Don’t let yourself be pressured into making a hasty decision,” Mr. Mysterious sounded gentle yet felt warm in his heart.
“What?” Estelle asked.
“I just want us to be together as long as we can. That’s enough for me,” Mr. Mysterious said affectionately.
****
Finally, Estelle still decided to stay at the hotel because she was afraid that Yohan would feel uneasy when staying with Mr. Mysterious. 
Mr. Mysterious respected her decision and asked her to take good care of herself and the children. He seemed to be very emotional today. And when they talked on the phone, Estelle even thought that he was about to cry.
At night, after the children fell asleep, she searched the situation about Roberts Real Estate Group on her phone.
Roberts Real Estate Group was the largest real estate company in Hadale. As a giant company, it had a wide business scope, and its business included not only real estate but also many other industries such as the automobile industry, household products industry, and so on.
