Mr. Tycoon's Beloved Wife: The Madam No One Dares to Offend-Chapter 261: Your Dad Is Going To Let Us Down
Hilla didn’t care about Margaret’s muttering. She kept waiting for a reply from Bruce.
However, more than ten minutes later, Hilla did not receive any message from Bruce. She sent more messages, "Are you busy now? Can you send me a message after you’re done? I just want to know that you’re safe."
Although she didn’t know whether he had received it, Hilla was waiting with anticipation.
Orlenna sighed helplessly. She knew that Hilla must be worried about Bruce. However, it wasn’t convenient for her to contact Bruce in person. The South Country was so chaotic that someone might lose his there if he was not careful enough.
"Hilla, it’s getting late. Go back to your room and rest early."
Instead, Orlenna could only persuade Hilla to rest first.
Maybe when Hilla woke up the next day, Bruce would call back.
"Mother, I’m not sleepy yet. It should be very hot there now. The day before yesterday, Bruce said that he was in the west of South Country that was in the drought. I was afraid that he would be uncomfortable."
There were also deserts and rainforests in South Country. Hilla knew that it was not a very comfortable place to stay.
Although Bruce was only for business, there shouldn’t be any danger for him. With the Anderson family’s financial and material resources, he would eat well and live well, but Hilla was still worried.
She could not let go of Bruce’s reply.
"It doesn’t matter. The Anderson family has sent many people with him. Don’t worry. Bruce won’t let himself suffer."
Orlenna comforted Hilla with a kind and intimate smile, which eased the burden in Hilla’s heart.
Suddenly, Hilla’s phone rang. Her face immediately beamed with happiness. She became excited like a child and held the phone in front of Orlenna, "Bruce replied to me!"
"Oh my god. He just replied with a message, not buy you a villa. How could you be so happy? Bruce is so lucky that his wife easily got satisfied."
Margaret complained in disapproval.
Women must not be so humble. Otherwise, men will not think highly of them.
If it was her, she would ignore him for a few days before replying to the message.
Orlenna glared at Margaret and pushed her up the stairs, "Can’t you say something
nice? Go away. Go back to your room and play your game."
It wasn’t easy to see Hilla smile. But Margaret was pouring sarcastic remarks.
Orlenna felt she shouldn’t give birth to Margaret at all back then. She preferred giving birth to a ball instead, which could roll around on the ground to make her happy.
"Then I’m leaving? How nice would it be if you let me go back to my room to play games early?"
Now, those teammates were no longer playing with her. She had to find new teammates. She thought she had better find a master first. After all, she was still not that skillful.
Hilla had long forgotten about the two when she read the reply on the phone.
She chatted with Bruce to ensure his safety and confirm that he was fine. As he was about to attend a meeting, Hilla reluctantly said goodnight to him.
Seeing that Hilla had finished chatting, Orlenna stepped forward and said, "Alright, you’ve talked. Go back to your room and rest early. Bruce may not be so busy tomorrow."
Hilla smiled. She replied obediently, "OK, Mother!"
As long as she knew that Bruce was fine, her heart would settle down.
Hilla felt that days were so long without Bruce.
Every day, the most nervous and excited moment was nine o’clock. She held her phone and waited for Bruce’s messages.
They had only had the video call twice in such a long time. But every time Bruce chatted with her for more than half an hour, Hilla felt very happy and satisfied.
Margaret despised Hilla a lot. In Margaret’s opinion, Hilla should ask Bruce to buy her a few twenty-carat red and green gems.
Hilla would roll her eyes at Margaret and said, "So tacky!"
Even time went by slowly, Christmas was coming.
This day, Julian came. Since Margaret was engaged to him, she had to go to the Jorgansen’s for the first Christmas and even the New Year’s Day.
When Margaret heard that she had to stay in Far City until New Year’s Day, she immediately packed up her luggage and said that she would run away.
Of course, she dared not to oppose her mother.
Margaret took Hilla’s hand and said pitifully, "Are you willing to let me go? If I leave, no one will read novels for you every day."
Hilla was pregnant now and she didn’t want to be tired from reading books, so Margaret read those dramatic novels about overbearing presidents for her. She felt
that it was the only advantage of keeping Margaret.
Although those books were meaningless, thanks to Margaret’s excellent and emotional reading, Hilla liked to listen to them.
Hilla thought of Julian, who was drinking tea with Orlenna downstairs, and said with a smile, "It doesn’t matter. Julian came from so far away. Mother can’t refuse him."
"As long as you’re not afraid of getting beaten," she thought.
When Margaret heard Orlenna, she felt that her elbow was still painful.
Her mother had hit her so hard.
"Hilla..."
"Don’t call me. It’s useless. Mother has agreed to let you go. I can’t help you refuse. It will lose mother’s face."
Hilla quickly covered her belly with the quilt.
"Rigel is kind. Before you get married, even if you live in the Jorgansen’s, he won’t force you to do something you don’t like."
Hilla thought that Margaret was worried about her virgin.
Hearing that, Margaret snorted coldly and said, "If he dares to touch me, I will cripple him!"
Seeing Margaret’s fierce look, Hilla couldn’t help but worry about Julian. But she believed Margaret would not do that to Julian.
Julian had practiced martial arts for nearly twenty years.
Margaret wanted to make Julian suffer ... That was simply a dream!
Hilla patted Margaret on the shoulder and said in an earnest tone, "As you can protect yourself, Mother and I will be relieved. Just go."
Margaret screamed in her heart, ’No, I don’t want to go. Even if Julian kneels to beg me, I will not go!’
...
Margaret pulled Hilla’s sleeve, and Orlenna directly dragged Margaret to Julian’s car. Margaret didn’t give up and said, "Mom, you and Hilla are too lonely at home. I won’t be relieved."
’What a filial daughter I am! Could mom be willing to part with me?’ Margaret muttered in her mind.
Orlenna patted Margaret’s hand and comforted her with a smile, "It doesn’t matter. You have grown up and will get married sooner or later. Hilla will accompany me. I will get used to it in a few days."
As Orlenna spoke, she turned to look at Julian and said in a cold voice, "Take good care of my daughter."
Her voice was not loud, but Hilla could feel the warning in it.
To put it bluntly, Orlenna wanted Julian to serve Margaret well.
Don’t make her angry. Don’t let her feel wronged. Ensure her safety. And give her enough money.
Julian nodded politely.
"Mrs. Anderson, don’t worry. I will take good care of Margaret."
Hilla looked at Julian and said politely, "Margaret hasn’t suffered any grievances at home. Julian, please look after her well."
Then she moved closer to Julian and whispered, "Margaret is easy to coax. If you buy her a big gem, she will be very happy."
After all, Margaret loved money.
Margaret looked at the two who were chattering outside the car. Her resentment was gone and began to felt pity for Bruce.
Two days ago, she was moved to see Hilla worried about him.
But now, in just a few days, she had hooked up with her old lover quickly.
Margaret looked straight at Julian.
From today, she had to keep an eye on Julian while Bruce was on a business trip.
She wouldn’t allow him to chat with Hilla and rekindle his past romance.
Originally, she did not want to go to the Jorgansen’s. But now, Margaret had the mission in her heart and was full of vigor.
With her monitoring, Julian would have no chance to approach Hilla!
After Julian and Margaret left, Orlenna became worried, "Margaret finally has to meet the Jorgansens. I just don’t know if she will be obedient. I hope that she will not lose the face of our Anderson family."
From her words, Orlenna seemed to care only about the reputation of the Anderson family, but Hilla could see Orlenna’s worry.
In Hilla’s opinion, the Jorgansen family and the Anderson family were well-matched.
She knew Julian and his family and believed that they would not let Margaret suffer.
It was just a pity that Julian and Margaret hadn’t fallen in love with each other yet.
Hilla knew very well that Margaret had always been a sensible girl and wouldn’t casually throw a tantrum.
"Mother, don’t worry. Margaret is so agile that she won’t be wronged by others."
"Things are different before she gets married and after she gets married. Although the Jorgansen family is not complicated, I heard that it has many relatives and branches. When will Margaret be truly nimble?"
She was afraid that Margaret would offend someone.
Orlenna finished speaking and turned to look at Hilla. She felt relieved and held Hilla’s hand, "Our family is so peaceful and you are sensible."
Orlenna’s words reminded Hilla that the difference before marriage and after marriage was not as simple as she thought.
In the past few years in the Anderson’s, she was grateful for the tolerance of the Andersons, and Bruce’s deep love for her.
If she had married someone from the Jorgansen family, which was more complicated, her days would not be as comfortable as they were now. No wonder that Orlenna was worried about Margaret.
Hilla comforted Orlenna and went home. Christmas was coming. Hilla wanted to invite Halle to River City for a holiday but was rejected.
Although Hilla was a little disappointed, she understood Halle.
It turned colder and colder. The atmosphere of Christmas spread throughout the city. However, the Anderson’s seemed to be cold and cheerless.
Orlenna had never been interested in festivals, so after dinner, she went back to her room to rest.
She preferred to do her skincare rather than to watch those boring colored lights outside the city.
Hilla also felt bored. Orlenna had told her that she could go out for a walk with William.
However, when she thought of those couples in the street, she gave up. She felt her Christmas was a little bleak.
In the end, she stayed at home.
She still held her phone and waited quietly for nine o’clock so she could chat with Bruce.
The festive noise outside did not reach the Anderson’s villa halfway up the mountain. On the contrary, it was strangely quiet. Even the air conditioning in the room was not as noisy as before.
Hilla wrapped herself in the quilt and rubbed her belly, complaining, "Your father doesn’t miss you at all."
Otherwise, he would be the first to send messages to her every day. And it wouldn’t take him so long to reply.
Every day, Hilla would check the weather in South Country and look through the news there. Every time she saw a small explosion, her heart would sink.
However, when she saw Bruce was safe and stayed at the hotel at night, she felt that she was worried too much.
"He doesn’t miss me, either."
"Beautiful women were everywhere in South Country. He won’t lack women to be with him."
"I was pregnant now and had cold-shouldered him for half a year."
Hilla suddenly remembered that someone had said online, "A man is most likely to cheat during the time that his wife was pregnant."
Because during this time, men could not make love with their wives. They would be fascinated by the temptation outside.
Especially for an outstanding man like Bruce, he had a handsome appearance and a model figure and was at the most charming age.
And the Anderson family was rich!
Apart from Bruce’s appearance, his influence as the president of the Anderson Group was enough for those women to follow.
Hilla frowned. Although she believed in Bruce’s feelings for her, she was afraid that other women would take the opportunity to hook up with Bruce.
It was so hard for her!
Hilla rubbed her belly and muttered, "If your father does something sorry to us, we will not be with him anymore."
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone suddenly rang.
Hilla saw the number on the screen and instantly beamed with happiness.
She said with satisfaction, "Your dad must be reluctant to part with us. Look, before I could say anything, his message came!
"For the sake of Christmas, I forgive him!"
