My Unborn Baby Chose My Husband for Me novel Chapter 382

"Evie."

Lucian dropped Seraphina's hand and rushed to his sister without hesitation. "Are you okay?"

Little Bean's complaints echoed in Seraphina's mind. "Wow, an Oscar-worthy performance! This Aunt Evie isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, playing right into someone else's hands."

Seraphina calmly looked away, responding in her thoughts, "It doesn't matter if it's fake. It only matters if your dad buys it."

As soon as Lucian helped Evie up, her eyes rolled back and she passed out.

"Evie!" Lucian gasped.

Seraphina stepped forward. "I know first aid. Let me take a look..."

Before she could finish, Melody shoved her aside.

Seraphina lost her balance and stumbled back a few steps.

"Ms. Simmons, don't you think playing these petty tricks right now is going too far?" Melody said loudly.

Lucian heard it.

He merely glanced at his wife. "Sera, Evie was too agitated and fainted. I have to get her home right now. You guys..."

Seraphina's lips curled into a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"It's fine. Go ahead. It's not the first time this has happened anyway."

Lucian froze. A sudden realization hit him, and his gaze fell on Seraphina's injured hand.

"Christian."

Christian Chase, who had been trying to blend into the background to avoid the crossfire, stepped forward reluctantly. "Mr. Langford."

Lucian handed Evie over to him. "Take Ms. Langford back to... Langford Manor."

"Understood," Christian replied.

Melody shifted, subtly blocking Christian's path. "Lucian, is that really a good idea? Evie said she didn't want to go home..."

Lucian looked up at her, his dark eyes turning dangerously cold.

"Melody, don't you think you're overstepping?" he demanded.
