A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 209

With her energy and focus on making sure that everyone thought that she was Linda, pregnant and all, Lisa had forgotten that Linda was only engaged with Charles. They hadn't had the wedding yet.

They hadn't even applied for the marriage certificate from the Bureau of Civil Affairs.

This made Lisa happy. She stood up from the chair, and even though four months pregnant, she did a little dance.

Bun almost caught her dancing, when she emerged from the Kitchen. Lisa quickly pretended to be stretching.

When she finally sat back down, she noticed Bun holding a bowl in her hand. "My Lady, some chicken soup for you." Bun placed the bowl in front of Lisa and sat down beside her.

Lisa didn't like eating chicken, even when she was a child. She always felt nauseated. She almost gagged at the smell of the steaming chicken soup wafting her way. She glanced at Bun next to her and pushed the bowl towards her. "You drink it." Lisa ordered. "Oh, my Lady, her Ladyship wanted you to build up your health. How can I drink it? Don't you like drinking chicken soup? Just have some."

"Didn't you hear what she said? She told me to drink all of it, and if I can't, you should drink the rest." Bun scratched her head, confused with Linda's behaviour. She remembered Linda always enjoyed the chicken soup that Violet cooked for her. She never once complained about the quantity. But why didn't she want to drink it now? Could being pregnant really change people's disposition so drastically? Bun couldn't help but shake her head, but she had no choice.

She was there to serve Linda and it was disrespectful to question her. Another dilemma faced Bun, how could she drink such a big bowl of chicken soup?

Besides, she had never been a fun of the soup. It always made her quizzy and sick.

As soon as she finished drinking, she rushed to the restroom and began vomiting. She didn't feel better until she threw up all the contents that were in her stomach.

Then she washed her face, feeling as if she was going to collapse. "People should never eat what they don't like."

"Bun, what's wrong? You don't look very well." Lisa couldn't hide her pleasure. A sly smile escaped her before she turned away. She had to be careful not to deter far from Linda's character, but Lisa couldn't help it.

As Bun was about to respond to Linda, she heard a familiar voice behind her. She nearly broke into happy tears when she heard it. It was Brian, the man she hadn't seen for half a month.

"Master Brian, why are you here?" Bun asked in surprise and delight, restraining herself from running into his arms.

Without answering, Brian walked towards her, took her hand and kissed it.

"Bonny, I missed you so much."

"Master Brian, I..."

"Don't call me Master anymore. You're my girl now." Brian interrupted her.

"Then what should I call you?" Bun was suddenly at a loss. She had always called Brian, Master and didn't know what she would call him. Maybe she could just call him Brian?

But she wasn't used to calling his name.

"Call me honey!" Brian smiled, his handsome face lighting up with a playful expression.

What he said made Bun blush and she punched his chest.

They laughed for a while until Bun groaned. Her stomach was acting up because of the chicken soup. Brian noticed that her face was as pale as a sheet.

"Bonny, you don't look very well. What's wrong?"

Brian held her shoulder and took her for a walk in the garden. By this time, Lisa had quietly left the sitting room.

It was difficult for Brian to sneak out of his home, so they had to make full use of every minute they had with each other. Brian felt depressed that his grandfather didn't agree to his decision to get married with Bun. But he still tried to find a chance to see Bun secretly.

Brian believed that Bun was his soulmate, his forever. He felt strongly for her and couldn't stay away, therefore, he made the decision to continue to see her as he handled the Sarah situation. He was going to make Bun his wife, come hell or high water.

"Well, Lady Violet cooked some chicken soup for Lady Linda. Linda didn't want to drink it, so she commanded me do it. I drank it all and felt terrible, then I threw up."

"Don't do this anymore. If you don't want to drink, then don't drink. How can she do that? Did she force you?"

"Well, she's not so bad. It's Lady Violet that forced her first. Lady Linda is now pregnant so she may lose her temper sometimes. It doesn't matter."

"She's pregnant? Then Charles must be very happy. If we have a baby, I would be happy as well."

Bun blushed when she heard his words. She looked away shyly. "Why are you not talking? Don't you want to have my baby? Either a boy and girl is okay. Can you imagine little Brians' and Buns' running around. What a sight it will be."

"I've actually never thought about it." Bun wanted to punch him again for making her turn red with embarrassment and shyness.

"Never. Hmm.. okay. Bonny... " Brian's voice trailed off. Bun looked at him and gave him a warm smile, prompting him to continue with his line of thought, "... it's difficult for me to get this out. Will you hang out with me?"

Bun hesitated. On the one hand, she hadn't seen Brian for a long time and really wanted to be with him.

On the other hand, she couldn't leave Linda alone.

Seeing her hesitation, Brian asked, "What's wrong?"

"Lady Linda is now pregnant and it's my duty to look after her. I'm afraid that she might be in danger, if I'm not there with her." It hurt Bun deeply to refuse Brian's request. But sometimes matters of the heart take a back sit to one's duty.

"How can she be in danger at home? If she doesn't get out, who can be a threat to her? No one would dare assassinate her here. The villa of the Mu clan is heavily guarded. Please Bonny... I need to be with you." Brian pleaded. He did make sense. Linda was in no danger as long as she stayed within the walls of the Mu Clan compound.

"Well, I'll ask Lady Linda for leave. How about that?" Bun responded after a few seconds of thinking. She wanted to be with Brian.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Brian was giddy like a small schoolboy. He was happy that he was going to spend time with his love.
