Chapter 57 Chapter 57: The Cozy Scene
Estelle held Yvonne in her arms as if holding her treasure and fixed her eyes on Yvonne, saying, “I was also very naughty when I was a child. She’s more like me.”
“Well, did you two quarrel?” Luke laughed and said. “Mr. Hans, marriage requires mutual tolerance and understanding. Don’t make Estelle angry. She has just given birth to a child and is still weak. Besides, her mother is ill. She needs your care and support most.”
Standing aside, Cristofer gazed at Estelle, who was holding Yvonne in her arms.
He found that Estelle was thinner than before. Her dress was obviously of small size but was loose for her. Besides, her arms were too slender.
Estelle trembled slightly with excitement but steadily held Yvonne in her arms.
Cristofer suddenly realised he hadn’t seen her so happy in six years.
When they were passionately in love, he believed that if he had a daughter with Estelle one day, she would definitely be the most beautiful mother, and their daughter would be the most lovely baby in the world.
And he always imagined the scene where Estelle held their daughter gently, coaxed her in a soft voice, and sang a lullaby for her.
The scene he had dreamed of countless times came true at this moment.
Suddenly, Yvonne began to cry.
Her cry wrenched Cristofer's mind back to the present.
“What’s wrong with Yvonne? Is she hungry? I’ll get her some milk,” he said.
When he was about to take a step, Luke stopped him and said, “Mr. Hans, did you forget that Estelle is here? She will breastfeed little Yvonne.”
Estelle’s back stiffened when she heard this, while Cristofer was also stunned.
Luke then said, “Estelle, come with me. You may feed Yvonne in Mr. Hans’ room.”
Estelle didn’t want to go to Cristofer's room at all. But she couldn’t bear to see her daughter cry in hunger. Therefore, she had no choice but to follow Luke.
When she entered the room, Luke left and closed the door for her.
After parking the car, Rebecca rushed into the house in a hurry. She looked around but didn’t see Estelle. Then she got anxious and snapped, “Cristofer, where is Estelle?”
Being disturbed, Cristofer, still immersed in the cozy scene he had seen just now, felt displeased.
With an unhappy look, he said, “Don’t worry. She won’t be missing. I won’t do anything to her.”
“Really? You have forcibly taken her child away from her,” Rebecca glared at him.
“Yvonne is also my daughter!” Cristofer snapped.
“So what? Did you ever think about your daughter when you cheated on Estelle? Did you think about how much Estelle had to suffer when she was pregnant with Yvonne when you slept with your mistress? Don’t pretend to be a good father. What did you do for your daughter before she was born?”
Cristofer was rendered speechless. With a straight face, he said, “I will fulfill my responsibility as a father in the future.”
“Fulfill your responsibility by getting her a stepmother?” Rebecca said with her voice heavy with sarcasm.
“Miss Miller! Are you here to quarrel with me? If so, please go out. Don’t speak loudly here and disturb my daughter!” Cristofer said angrily.
Rebecca said firmly with her arms folded, “I won’t leave until I see Estelle. I must send her home safely.”
Speaking of this, Cristofer asked, “Where does she live now?”
“I don’t know,” Rebecca said as she rolled her eyes.
“Tell me.”
“I said I don’t know!” Rebecca frowned and said. “She’s your wife. Why do you ask me where she lives?”
Cristofer was speechless.
“It doesn’t matter that you don’t care about her. Without you, Estelle doesn’t have to suffer any grievances anymore. Now, she is being taken good care of every day. You don’t need to worry about her, Mr. Hans. Just enjoy your life with your mistress,” Rebecca said, sneering at him again.
Hearing that, Cristofer was stunned for a moment. Then he asked furiously, “Who’s taking care of her? The father of that bastard?”
“Who’s bastard? Cristofer, watch your mouth!” Rebecca also became angry and roared.
Cristofer took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Then he asked, “What do you know about it? Tell me, and I’ll help you solve the crisis of the Miller Group.”
“No need!” Rebecca refused him at once. “I don’t mind telling you what I know. Estelle’s current boyfriend is handsome and rich, and he loves her very much. Even if she goes back home a little late, he will be very worried about her. And he specifically sent someone to pick her up after the party. By the way, when he knew that Estelle liked the rings and wanted to buy them, he transferred a lot of money to Estelle without hesitation.”
“You mean her boyfriend gave her the money to buy the rings today?” Cristofer was stunned.
“Or what?” Rebecca gritted her teeth and said. “Her Uncle has frozen all her bank accounts. Even when her mother was seriously ill, her Uncle didn’t take her to see a doctor. So Estelle was driven into a corner and didn’t even have the money to pay for her mother’s medical fees. Fortunately, I ran into her in the hospital that day and lent her the money.”
Hearing that, Cristofer felt heartache and put his hand on his chest.
‘Gretchen said that York had always supported Estelle and her mother. How could it be possible that Estelle has no money? Did she need to borrow money to pay the medical fees? Besides, when she went to the Hudson’s House that day, the clothes she wore were all expensive,’ he thought. He didn’t expect that Estelle’s life would be so difficult.
Then he remembered that Estelle seemed to have a stomachache today. At that time, her face was pale and wet with cold sweat.
She has just given birth to Yvonne less than a month ago and is still weak. But no one takes care of her. And she has to go to the hospital to care for her mother. No wonder she is thinner. How come her life becomes like this…
Seeing that Cristofer was silent, Rebecca continued, “Cristofer, if you don’t love her anymore, you should end your relationship with a divorce. How could you cheat on her when she was pregnant? You are so heartless. Speaking of this, I advise that you go to the hospital to check your mistress’ medical records. She’s a woman full of secrets.”
Cristofer raised his head and asked, “What do you mean?”
“I don’t mean anything. Don’t forget to do a paternity test if she gives birth to a child in the future. Oh, I forgot. She can’t give birth to a child. The doctor said that she couldn’t have a chance to be a mother anymore because she had abortions too many times and became infertile,” Rebecca said.
