A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 203

Lisa swore she's never seen Charles Mu so gentle, and her head went blank all of a sudden. She simply stared at Charles, thinking that she used to be the woman of his dreams. Lisa once swore that she'd marry someone like Charles, only Charles never gave her any of his attention.

"What's wrong, Linda? Still not feeling well? Why are you so quiet?"

Seeing Lisa staring straight at him in silence, Charles knew that she still wasn't feeling well. He quickly laid down the food container and sat by Lisa, holding her hand.

"No. I'm fine now, Young Master Mu."

Hearing the way Lisa called him, Charles was visibly stunned, but he soon smiled back and caressed her forehead, "What's the matter with you, honey? Why are you calling me that way?"

Lisa snapped out of her daze and thought, "Linda would definitely call him 'Charles, ' not 'Young Master Mu.' Otherwise, he wouldn't react this way."

But what would Linda usually call Charles? Lisa had thoroughly read all the files on Charles and Linda, except this one detail. How come she didn't know what Linda called Charles?

She decided to sound out his reaction, "Honey."

"There, you're finally calling me 'honey' now. I thought you forgot that I'm your husband. Every time, I just call you 'honey' or 'sweetheart.'" Suddenly Charles wrapped his arm around Lisa, holding her tight to his chest.

Lisa's mind had been restless for a while now, but her jealousy had also been building up. She had never seen Charles like this before. He was always cold towards other people, why was he so tender and kind to Linda?

"Quickly, eat something. You little glutton didn't have anything this whole afternoon. You must be starving!"

Charles let go of Lisa and took out some dishes from the container beside him, spreading them out on the table for her to enjoy.

Looking at the display, Lisa held back the tears flickering at the corner of her eyes. She couldn't remember the last time she had a normal meal.

Adam Huo was always concerned with maintaining her figure, only feeding her fresh fruits and vegetables. He never allowed any meat in her diet.

Picking up a bowl of rice, Lisa ate a lot in one breath.

When she was finished, Lisa couldn't help letting loose a satisfied burp. She blushed deeply when she remembered Young Master Mu was present. She got carried away in front of Charles. Would he get suspicious of her?

Unexpectedly, Charles just laughed and rubbed Lisa's head, ruffling her hair. He didn't say anything else, only reminding her to take it easy.

As Lisa ate, Charles sat close by. He kept watching her silently, making Lisa a little uneasy. But she remembered that she was supposed to be the Young Mistress of the Mu Clan, the undisputed wife of Charles Mu, so things like this were natural. Lisa was entitled to enjoy everything that Linda once possessed. Why would there be shame in that? This was all part of Charles' unique love for her.

At the thought, Lisa rolled her eyes a bit.

She then affectionately wrapped her arms around Charles' neck and leaned against his chest, murmuring sweetly, "Honey, I love the food you made. Can you make this every day for me in the future?"

"Of course." Charles tightened his arms and held Lisa even more closely.

But Charles noticed that although his Linda seemed to have eaten a lot today, she didn't touch the cola chicken. Wasn't Linda a big fan of this dish? Charles made this today especially for her, but why didn't she eat it?

"You didn't try the cola chicken today. Was it not to your liking?" Charles asked.

Lisa was obviously taken aback. Her mind was working in overdrive. She ascertained that Linda must have loved cola chicken, which was why Charles made it. Lisa was puzzled at the dish's presence since she never liked it.

"The thing is, there's cola and soy sauce in the cola chicken. I didn't think it would be good for our baby, so I didn't eat it."

"You're right. It's no harm if you want to eat less."

Charles realized that Linda was afraid the ingredients in the cola chicken might affect their baby.

His affection for her grew at the thought, and he held her more tightly in his arms. Charles tenderly said, "Relax. I'll treat you well. Just take care of yourself and the baby. I'll take you home tomorrow."

"Okay! Thank you, honey." Lisa said, satisfied with Charles' words.

"Why don't we go back to SH tonight? Paul's going to pick us up today, so we can just go home together."

Charles couldn't wait any longer to take Linda away from the shabby hospital. Now that Linda was pregnant with his child, he had to be very careful.

Lisa certainly didn't want to stay in this miserable hospital either, so she quickly replied, "Yes!"

That night, they hurried back to SH.

Knowing that Linda and Bun had left, Robert Huo became somewhat upset. He only came to the school's winter camp because Linda was going to be here. He wanted to have a chance to be with her. But Robert has lost all interest now, so he bid goodbye to the principal and left for SH early.

As soon as they got home, Charles told Violet Xing and James Mu the good news.

Violet and James went out of their way later that night to check up on Lisa, much to her surprise. She didn't expect Linda to be treated so well by the Mus. They really considered her as a daughter-in-law.

"Linda, where's your dragon ring? Why aren't you wearing it on your hand?" James asked, noticing that her hand was bare when he glanced at it.

Lisa panicked. What dragon ring? She suddenly remembered the ring that Linda always wore on her finger.

Lisa tried to keep calm and steady, "I was afraid that I might lose it at the winter camp, so I left it at home instead."

"You must put it back on. You're pregnant now, so you should take good care of yourself. You can't always rely on Bun. What if Bun wasn't there? Generally, there will always be bad people waiting to harm you. You need to guard yourself with the dragon ring. It might protect you from danger."
