Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1822: Car Accident
Previously on Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband...
Danielle came back, and the whole family had dinner together. When it was bedtime, Ethan Barnes of course squeezed onto the bed, insisting on sleeping there, and no matter how Celeste Linden tried to get him to leave, he stayed.
“Ethan, move.” Celeste wanted to push him off the bed.
But Ethan’s tall frame didn’t budge, and he even reached out to pull her into his arms. “I hear women love to say the opposite of what they mean, saying no, no with their mouths but really wanting it deep down. I know you want me to sleep with you.”
“Haha,” Danielle laughed happily from inside as she vouched, “Right, right, we girls love to say the opposite, so Daddy has to sleep with us from now on.”
Celeste, “…”
After coaxing Danielle to sleep, Celeste didn’t want to move anymore. She had been exhausted for quite a while, and now she had no energy left.
Resting in his arms, she looked up at him, “Ethan, what’s wrong with you today?”
Ethan tucked the blanket around his daughter, one arm around Celeste, the other behind his head, completely relaxed. “What do you mean what’s wrong?”
“You’re acting really strange today, did you know that?”
“Today is the most real version of me; I’ve been suppressing my true nature before.”
“And you were suppressing your nature before? Maybe you should keep it suppressed, even tighter.”
“…”
Ethan couldn’t get angry no matter what she said, and he leaned down towards her lips to kiss her.
“Get away!”
Mm.
Ethan directly silenced her with a kiss on her red lips.
Compared to his previously aggressive kisses, tonight he was exceptionally gentle, tender yet firm, lingering over her lips and drawing her into a deeply affectionate kiss.
Celeste’s small hand resting on his shoulder gently tightened around his pajamas, her face turning crimson.
She didn’t know how long it had been until he grasped her small hand.
Celeste suddenly snapped awake and instinctively pulled her hand back, “Ethan, I’m pregnant now, don’t be a beast! I clearly remember all the things you did to me while I was asleep before.”
Ethan raised an eyebrow, chuckling in a husky voice, “You remember so clearly? I thought you were asleep then, didn’t react at all.”
“…I, I was asleep then…”
“But your consciousness was clear, you could remember what I did to you when you woke up, right?”
Celeste didn’t know how to respond, so she simply turned her face away.
At this moment, Ethan kissed her on the small earlobe, “If you’re not willing, fine, I can manage myself.”
Celeste, “…”
This bastard!
…
The next day.
Danielle was sent off to school, and Ethan said to Celeste, “Celeste, let’s go get divorced, this time I’m sure we can finalize it.”
Just last night he did such sordid things, and today he wanted to divorce her. Celeste quickly stood up, “Fine, let’s divorce then. I also hope to do it as soon as possible.”
The two of them got into the car and arrived at the civil affairs bureau again.
At the entrance, Ethan suddenly said, “Celeste, you go in first, I left something in the car and need to grab it.”
Celeste didn’t suspect anything, “Okay.”
But she waited inside for a long time and Ethan still hadn’t come back. What was he up to?
Then there was an uproar from outside as someone shouted, “There’s been a car accident!”
What?
Celeste sprang to her feet immediately, only to see a car accident in the middle of the road outside. Many people had gathered around, and Celeste suddenly had a bad feeling.
Could it be him?
Celeste quickly ran out, pushed her way through the crowd to the front.
