The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 28

She snapped back to reality, remembering she was Lucian’s fiancée. If she got knocked up from fooling around and Lucian found out, she’d be in deep shit.

The guy next to her chuckled at her reaction, shrugging off her plea.

Realizing what he had done, Penelope’s eyes widened in shock, “You...you...”

“What’s the big deal? What’s wrong with having my kid? Lucian’s got plenty of women around him. He seems to be quite taken with the maid who replaced you. They've probably had a few rolls in the hay and who knows, maybe she’s already got a bun in the oven. You having my kid and going back to Lucian doesn’t sound too bad. Then the Lindberg family will have to answer to us.”

Penelope had never seen it this way before.

But Pete brought up a point. If Lucian was indeed smitten by Allison and found out that she was the woman from the hotel, she’d be screwed.

No way!

“Pete, did you just say Lucian has a thing for Allison?”

“Correct. He even scolded Kamilla today for her. Usually, Kamilla is his favorite. That maid has some serious charm; she managed to bewitch the cold Lucian in just a few days.”

Penelope gritted her teeth, recalling how Kamilla treated her during the dinner with the Flanagan family. Back then, Lucian merely brushed it off.

She clenched her fists, trying to convince herself, "Lucian is only nice to her because he thinks Allison is me!"

But deep inside, she was terrified.

Allison had to leave. She had to leave Northfield!

She had to come up with a plan. “Pete, help me…”

It was Monday morning, Allison rushed to class and was panting heavily. Lucian was already at the podium.
