Captive Hearts: The Tycoon's Ugly Bride novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40 Jealousy

The woman returned to the banquet hall and greeted the others. Obviously, everyone here knew her, and if that was the case, these people must also know about the relationship between her and Louis.

"What are you going to do with the child after it's born?" Blanche asked.

Judging from the woman's big belly, the baby might be born soon. It was possible that the baby would come into the world before Blanche had a chance to divorce Louis.

Blanche boldly speculated. The woman she had just met seemed a bit weak, and she wondered if that woman wasn't allowed to marry Louis because of her lowly status.

"My child will call me Dad after it's born, of course. It will also call you Mom."

Blanche touched her smooth forehead, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down after hearing the shocking words. She told herself that Louis was just a complete scu*bag and not worth getting angry with.

She could tell that when the woman gave birth to the child, Louis would bring the baby to the Herbart family and raise him. He wouldn't marry that woman, and Blanche would become the baby's stepmother.

Blanche thought to herself, "This guy is really a total jerk. He owes both women greatly. Although I don't care about him, she has become a laughingstock because of him."

Blanche lowered her head, biting her lip, remaining silent, and gripping the railing tightly with fingers that had turned red.

Louis wondered, "Is this woman jealous?"

He felt that he had had enough fun and intended to explain.

However, Blanche seemed to have made up her mind, raising her head with a heroic look of sacrifice.

"Fine, since the child will call me Mom, I will raise it and treat it as my own child. After all, the child is innocent. It's all your fault. If you couldn't marry the girl, why did you sleep with her and get her pregnant? You scu*bag!"

Of course, Blanche didn't think the woman was any better. After all, the woman hooked up with Louis and got pregnant even if she couldn't even guarantee that she could give the child a home, so she was an irresponsible mother.

Louis's eyebrows furrowed slightly when he heard what she said.

He couldn't believe that Blanche actually accepted the fact that he had a child with another woman and was even going to raise and treat the child as her own.

Louis raised his eyebrows, smiled, and leaned his tall body toward Blanche.

"I didn't expect my wife to be so broad-minded. It seems like I can keep a few more mistresses."

Blanche pushed the man who was approaching, but he was too strong. She couldn't push him away, and he cast a shadow on her as he leaned over.

Blanche thought to herself, "Ha! I'm not really broad-minded. I'm feeling extremely upset, all right? D*mn it! How dare this jerk cheat on me!"
