Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 76

It was a little late, so they went to a nearby restaurant for dinner. 

"Mom, I'm going on a business trip tomorrow. Take care of yourself." Isabella glanced at Diana.

"Business trip?" Diana's expression changed, then she said without thinking, "Don't go, or I'll go to Leeds with you."

Her daughter was more far important than work. Did she want to scare her by running around while she was pregnant?

Isabella: "..."

"I can't."

Diana picked up a piece of meat for Rachel, then said coldly, "Then, buy me a ticket as well."

Isabella held her forehead, feeling a bit headache, "It's a business trip. Why are you going with me?"

"Do you even think I want to? If you aren't pregnant, I would have already traveled with a tour group."

"…"

Isabella really wanted to rolled her eyes, as Diana wouldn't even dare to leave Brighton alone.

Knowing that she was worried, Isabella explained, "I won't be alone as there are also two assistants with me. It's just a few days, and I won't do many things. I'll call you at any time and report my whereabouts, okay? "

Diana frowned, whose attitude was very resolute, "No, the assistants don't know about your pregnancy, so they have no idea how to take care of you. What if anything happens?"

Isabella ruffled her hair, helplessly put down her chopsticks and said: "Then, what will my boss think of me if I take you? How can I explain this to him? "

"That's easy. Just say that I want to visit Leeds so you take me along. I won't always follow you."

"…"

Isabella truly didn't know how to refute her. She gloomily glared at her.

Having been silent for a long time, Luke suddenly burst out laughing.

As Isabella was busy arguing with Diana, she suddenly remembered that Luke was also at the side. She smiled at him and shook her head helplessly.

Luke looked at Diana and said: "Mrs. Jones, there is nothing to worry about. I can go to Leeds at anytime, and nothing will happen."

Diana immediately shook her head, "How can I trouble you that way? You need to work as well."

"It's okay. My job is to travel to many places. I can stop by Leeds to see her, and come home on the night."

Diana looked at him, feeling slightly shaken inside. "Really? Would it be too troublesome for you?"

Luke lowered his head to wipe Rachel's mouth, then he looked at Isabella, smiling slightly, "How could it be? She is pregnant now and I'm worried too. I shouldn't stand by side."

Isabella awkwardly smiled, started to eat again with her head lowered, pretending to have heard nothing.

She would naturally not trouble Luke, but the first thing now was to convince Diana. She may talk with him later privately.

Looking at Isabella hesitantly, Diana then nodded her head as if she didn't feel that it was a burden for him at all, "Okay, it should be fine. If you go, I'll be more at ease as long as she is not alone."

Hearing that, Isabella muttered in her heart: "Sure enough, what others said is way better than her own daughter did."

Luke looked at her with a gaze that said he had settled the matter.
