Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 427

By the time they got back to Kevan's house, Ruby had already wiped the vicious expression off her face. Bethany also patted down her clothes and wiped the tears from her face. Only her swollen eyes couldn't be hidden. Ruby glared at her scornfully and said, "When Daddy asks about it later, you know what to say, don't you?"

Bethany nodded hard and said loudly, "Aster pushed me on purpose and I fell down!" Only then did Ruby press the intercom. Two minutes later, Kevan's voice sounded over the intercom amidst the static, making it sound husky. "Who is it?" Ruby hurriedly put on a sweet smile and stooped to look into the camera. "Kevan, it's me."

The line went silent for a few seconds before Kevan asked, "Who are you?" Ruby's expression grew awkward and she spoke in a higher pitch. "Didn't I tell you at the hospital that time? I'm your wife."

"Oh." Kevan seemed to recall it.

The door opened after a beep.

"Come up." Ruby stepped inside happily and strode ahead with her back straight.

Bethany followed her, nearly getting squashed by the closing glass door. However, Ruby didn't realize it. She went into the elevator, then saw that Bethany was still a few meters away. She immediately rushed her impatiently. "Hurry up! Or you'll stay down here by yourself!" Bethany had no choice but to run as fast as she could, carrying the weight of her round belly.
