Need You Now novel Chapter 280

In the Hua family's villa, Heidy sat in the courtyard to enjoy the cool breeze. Every weekend, Heidy used to sit under the tree to enjoy the cool breeze. In her eyes, that was the most pleasant thing. Playing with the toy in her hand, Elsa mumbled, "Mommy, mommy..."

Caressing his head gently, Heidy smiled and said, "Elsa, isn't it cool here? Do you want mommy to play with you?"

Elsa hadn't known how to speak. She just gave the toy to Heidy. Hearing this, she shook the bell and played with Elsa. Heidy had to work during working days, so she would accompany Elsa on weekends.

The Butler walked up to her and said with a smile, "My lady, Mr. Kevin is here." While they were talking, Kevin appeared.

At the sight of him, Heidy smiled. "You are here, Kevin. Are you going to expand your company to A city? You often come to A city recently."

Kevin sat down and explained, "My mother urged me to spend more time with you. Elsa, do you miss uncle?"

Raising her head, Kevin climbed on to Kevin with a smile on her face and said, "Whoosh, whoosh..."

Heidy burst into laughter. Every time she heard Elsa call him like that, she would laugh out loud. "It seems that Elsa likes to call you that way," Heidy teased.

Holding Elsa in his arms, Kevin played with her with a smile on his face, "Of course, children are very smart. They will love the ones who treats her well."

"Yes. Kevin, since you like kids so much, why don't you find a girlfriend, get married and have a child together? Maybe you are so picky, so you haven't found the right one. How about we lower your requirements for a little bit?" said Heidy.

Pinching Elsa's cheek, Kevin calmly replied, "I don't have any specific requirements. It's just that I haven't meet someone makes me feel right. If I don't even have the slightest feelings towards her, I will not have a relationship with her."

Hearing his answer, Heidy agreed with him and said, "You're right. If we marry without love, our marriage won't be happy. But sometimes, you have to make a choice that you don't like."

Kevin looked at her and said with a smile, "It's good to be single. I'm kind of get used to it. But you are different. You have a child. You want more than me to have a marriage."

As soon as she wanted to say something, she felt nausea and retched uncomfortably. Heidy covered her mouth and wanted to vomit. Kevin walked up to him, frowned and asked, "Are you not feeling well?"

"I don't know if it's because I have a bad appetite recently," Heidy replied truthfully. "It seems that I should take some time to go to the hospital."

As she spoke, she began to retch again. Looking at her face, Kevin asked suddenly, "Are you pregnant?"

Hearing this, Heidy widened her eyes in surprise. She looked at him with a stiff face and forgot to answer. "My period last time is..." At the moment, Heidy became more pale as she thought carefully. Did she really...

Half an hour later, in a daze, Heidy sat in the bedroom with a pregnancy test stick in her hand. There was something humming in her head when she looked at the two lines. "How could this be..." Heidy sat still in disbelief, out of her wits.

Kevin came into the bedroom and took a look at the pregnancy test stick in her hand. He said in a low voice, "Give birth to the child and come back to Hearst."

With tears rolling down her eyes, Heidy said with a bitter smile, "Come back to him? Huh... How could it be possible? He has already had Cathy. How could I come back to him?"

However, things didn't go as she had expected. Since Hearst's betrayal, she knew that their marriage had come to an end. Should she go back to him for the baby's sake? She couldn't do that.

"You know, Hearst still loves you. I trust him," Kevin said flatly. "The baby is innocent. It shouldn't bear the contradiction between you two."

She lowered her head slowly and looked at her still flat stomach. She said melancholy, "I know, but I don't know what to do. If I kept the baby, Hearst would know sooner or later that it is his child. Things would get complicated then. And I don't have the heart to let my child die like this. After all, it is a small life."

Looking at her sad face, Kevin said abruptly, "Then give birth to the baby and I'll be the baby's father."

"What?" She raised her head in shock and asked, "What are you talking about, Kevin?"

Looking straight into his eyes, Kevin said seriously, "I say, if you agree, we can get married."

Heidy looked at him in astonishment. After a long while, she came to her senses. "Kevin..."

"Go and talk with Hearst, trying to figure out what's going on. If he wants to reconcile, you should try to let go of the unpleasant past, then you guys can be together for the sake of the children. If he doesn't accept the child, I will marry you. I will love him as if he is my own child, so that he can grow up in a healthy family," Kevin added.

Looking into his sincere eyes, she nodded slowly and said, "Okay, I promise you that I will have a talk with him."

With a faint smile on his lips, Kevin said, "Well, I hope you two can be reconciled, instead of getting married to me."

She looked at the man in front of her, feeling moved. In the past, she thought that Kevin was an indifferent man, but after she got along with him for some time, she found that he was kind and righteous.

In the dining room, Heidy was sitting opposite Hearst. Noticing the strange atmosphere, Hearst said in surprise, "Heidy, why do you ask me out today?" He was surprised to receive the call from Heidy. He didn't expect that she would ask him out.

Looking at him, she felt her chest fluctuated. She didn't know how to say. Actually, she felt a little embarrassed to tell him that she was pregnant. "How is Cathy?" said Heidy calmly.

Seeing her anxious expression, Hearst replied calmly, "We're fine. We're living a happy life."

'Happy...' Hearing the word "happy" from his mouth, Heidy felt mixed feelings. Had his happiness now had nothing to do with her now? These days, she had been trying her best to let go of her feelings for Hearst. The sudden pregnancy made her at a loss.

Looking at the man in front of her, Heidy's chest heaved, "So you really love Cathy, don't you?"

Hearing the word 'love', Hearst fell into silence. His love was only for Heidy. But recently, he had learned to hide his true feelings. But he didn't have the courage to say that he loved others. "Yes," replied Hearst shortly.

Heidy looked at the food in front of her and lost her appetite. Though she didn't want to talk about it anymore, Heidy had to continue, "Hearst, if we are given a chance to get back together because of something, are you willing to break up with Cathy? I can forget what happened and focus on our marriage as if nothing has happened."

Looking at her in surprise, Hearst didn't expect her to say that. "Heidy..." Hearst looked at her, confused.

"You just have to answer me, yes or no," Heidy butted in and asked.

Clenching his fists, he stared at the woman in front of him. At the moment, his heart sank. Then he closed his eyes and said in a heavy and cruel tone, "I refuse."

Tears welled up in her eyes. She didn't expect that he would refuse her so quickly. At this moment, she suddenly didn't know what to say next. She took a deep breath and plucked up all her courage to say, "There's one thing I want to tell you. I've already..."

"Heidy, I don't love you anymore," said Hearst suddenly, interrupting Heidy..

Heidy looked at him with great shock, her face pale. "You don't love me," Heidy repeated in a daze.

Hearst knew these words would hurt her and his heart ached. But even so, he had to stand firmly in his choice. "I don't love you anymore. I only feel guilty to you," said Hearst slowly.

Heidy said nothing and just looked at the man in front of her quietly. At this moment, she felt he was so strange. It seemed that over the years, she had never really known him at all. "It seems that your love for me is so fragile." It was difficult for her to say that.

Without looking into her eyes, he apologized, "I'm sorry."

She didn't want to hear the word anymore and she only thought that she was a joke. She took a deep breath and said calmly, "I don't need your apology."

"Heidy..." Hearst said in a hoarse voice, "I hope you can forget me. Can you..."

"I'm getting married," said Heidy unexpectedly.

He opened his eyes wide and his body stiffened all of a sudden. Seeing her, Hearst didn't know how to react. He wanted to drink water, but his trembling hand touch the glass, it overturned and water spilled out.

Heidy stood up and said with a smile, "I am going to get married. If possible, come to my wedding. Today's meeting is over. We have nothing to talk about. I wish both of us happiness." With that, she took her bag and turned around.

"You and Kevin?" said Hearst slowly.

She stopped, looked ahead blankly and nodded. Then she left determinedly with tears in her eyes. Seeing that Heidy had left, Hearst bit his lower lip, his eyes red. 'She, is going to get married...' Subconsciously, Hearst was reciting it in his mind.

Seeing the situation from not far away, Noah frowned. "There is really something going on."
