Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1813: A Deep Kiss

She planned to go to the kitchen to make something to eat.

But at that moment, the door suddenly opened, and Ethan Barnes walked in with his tall and upright figure, holding a bowl of noodles in his hand.

“Hungry? I just made these noodles for you. Hurry up and eat,” Ethan placed the noodles on the table.

Celeste Linden glanced at the time; it was already midnight. Both she and Danielle had slept, so why was he still awake?

Moreover, how did he know she was hungry unless he had been outside all along?

Celeste looked at the noodles, cooked in clear water, seasoned with some soy sauce and sesame oil. Inside were tender greens and a golden fried egg, looking fresh and appetizing with an enticing aroma.

She was indeed hungry, so she picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.

“Is it good?” he asked softly.

At night, his voice was gentle, asking her quietly as if the argument they had in the living room earlier hadn’t happened. She could tell he had been yielding all along.

“Didn’t you sleep?”

“I did, but I wanted to watch over you and the child, so I was lightly asleep, always listening for any movement from your direction. When you moved, I woke up too.”

Celeste felt as if something deep inside her heart suddenly softened beyond her control.

This was his strategy again, right? Now he was trying to manipulate her heart.

Otherwise, why would she slowly feel compassion, even affection, for this devil?

Just then, her calf suddenly cramped up, and she gasped in pain.

“What’s wrong, where does it hurt?” he asked immediately, sounding tense.

“My leg, my calf cramped.”

“Is it here?” Ethan knelt down in front of her, reaching out to gently massage her slender calf, “Bear with it for a moment, it won’t hurt soon.”

Celeste looked at the man under the light; his handsome features were softened by the moonlight, making it hard for her to look away.

He might have noticed her gaze, as Ethan looked up at her, then moved forward, slowly resting his handsome face against her soft belly.

“Baby, it’s Daddy,” he spoke to the baby in her belly.

Celeste remembered when she was pregnant with Danielle, he was having a grand wedding with Carlotta, so Danielle never heard his voice, nor had any so-called paternal education.

Now she felt awkward, so she reached out a small hand to push his head away, “What are you doing, go away.”

“I won’t go. I want to talk to the baby for a while,” Ethan said, embracing her soft waist.

Celeste, “…”

“Baby, I’m your Daddy. Your mommy is a beautiful and gentle girl, and you have an elder sister, who loves you. We all love you, and our greatest hope now is for you to come into this world healthy and safe.”

Listening to what he said, Celeste’s heart grew softer; her fingers touched his neat short hair, which felt hard with a cold masculinity that could prick her fingers.

But at this moment, she felt even his hair was soft, as if she had touched the softest part of his heart.

Then Ethan raised his head, looking at her, “Celeste, keep this child, okay? Don’t abandon him. I will definitely be a good father.”

Celeste’s white eyes reddened. She didn’t understand why he kept insisting she keep the child, did he think she would have an abortion?

Ethan lowered his handsome eyelids and placed a deep kiss on her flat belly.
