Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 213

Lindsey stared at Zayn for being so blunt this early in the morning.

Zayn reached out and massaged Lindsey’s neck with just the right amount of force. Seeing Lindsey staring at him looking irritated, he paused and smiled at her.

It was a very helpless and doting smile.

Lindsey raised her eyebrows and looked at him strangely. “What are you doing?” She did not notice that her lips were curled up into a smile.

Zayn did not speak, but he looked like he was in a good mood.

He reached out and wrapped his arms around Lindsey from behind. One hand was still massaging Lindsey's limbs while he gently placed his other hand on her belly.

Lindsey could feel the man's body heat through her thin pajamas.

She was flustered and looked back at Zayn. The stinging pain in her fingertips spread to her heart.

Perhaps because the atmosphere between the two was too cordial, Lindsey somehow said, "Zayn, are your parents good to you?"

The light in Zayn's eyes flashed. "Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Nothing." Lindsey shook her head. Only then did she realize what she had asked. "Just curious."

Zayn grunted and did not sound too excited. Lindsey had never heard Zayn mention his parents. Even Grandpa rarely talked about them. Lindsey thought that Zayn would not answer, but after a while, Zayn's deep voice rang in her ears, "I actually don't remember much, but I think they probably treated me really well."

His tone was flat with no signs of nostalgia, but he also did not intend to keep it from her.

The words "really well" were like a needle that pricked Lindsey's heart. She laughed and said, "I guess all parents will love their children very much."

Even she, knowing that she could not keep the child in her womb, still could not help but feel the urge to bring him into this world. She wanted to raise him and kiss his soft little face. She wanted to give him all the love she had.

How could anyone bear to abort their child?

Lindsey was a little lost in thought. As soon as Zayn looked down, he saw her empty eyes and inexplicably felt a pang of sadness. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I was just thinking what kind of people my parents were and why they would abandon me."

She sounded like she did not care, but Zayn clearly saw her eyelashes tremble.

"Don’t think about it." Zayn pulled her into his arms. His tone was gentle, but his face turned cold above her. "You have me."

Lindsey was shaken and her fingers that were on Zayn’s chest trembled a little.

At that moment, Zayn was also shaken.

The two of them had experienced despair and desolation. They were finally warming up to each other.

All of a sudden, Lindsey did not feel like going against Zayn anymore. She thought that distancing herself and rejecting him would make him give up on her, but Zayn was not willing to let her go, so her actions were only hurting them both even more.

Lindsey’s morning sickness was not as severe anymore perhaps due to a good night’s sleep. However, Zayn was still anxious and accompanied her at home all day.

Zayn glanced at him and gestured for Lindsey to take a seat. He had ordered the maids to bring up some refreshments earlier. As if he was taking care of a child, he gently patted Lindsey's head and said, "Didn't you say you were hungry just now? Eat some fruit first. We’ll have dinner later."

Next to them, Allie’s eyes flickered and slowly widened her eyes. She hesitated for a moment and sneaked a glance at Zayn. Seeing that Zayn had no intention to find fault with her, she took Lindsey's hand.

"Lindsey, didn't you say you were on vacation? I haven't seen you for a few days. Why have you lost weight again?" Her tone was worried and cautious.

Lindsey was a little hungry. Zayn had set a time for her meals every day and even what to eat and how much to eat each time. All she wanted to do was eat.

She winked at Allie, pulled her hand out to eat some fruit, and said incoherently, "There's nothing exciting, so I came back."

Lindsey did not look one bit suspicious.

Allie’s heart settled, but Liam who was next to her looked at Lindsey and sneered. “Ms. Juhl, you have such a great appetite. I heard that you’re pregnant. How far along are you? Why didn’t you tell us such good news? After all, we were the ones who saved you back then. Did you already forget?”

It was actually very unwise for Liam to show up here looking for Lindsey, but he was anxious to see Lindsey's current situation and Zayn's attitude.

Now that he saw it, Liam's heart sank even deeper.

Lindsey was already accustomed to Liam's weirdness and was just about to say something sarcastic when Zayn casually picked up a piece of fruit and stuffed it into Lindsey's mouth, blocking her words.

"I heard that St. Stephan Hospital in Germany is very famous. Mr. Wilford, you’re from Germany, so you must know it well. I was thinking of sending Lindsey there for her delivery. What do you think, Mr. Wilford?" Zayn spoke, hitting Liam's soft spot.

This was his first warning to Liam Wilford.
