Chapter 255
Bella‘s POV: I did not feel tired of Lucas‘s crying, but I was even angrier with Herbert. “Herbert, Lucas is only three years old. Please don‘t use a child to achieve your goal. It‘s harmful to his personal safety and will also hurt children!” With that. I squatted down and reached out to grab Lucas‘s hand that was tugging at my clothes. In a serious tone, I said, “I‘m not your mommy Don‘t call me that anymore!” At this time, I saw the tears in Lucas‘s eyes. I made up my mind not to be soft–hearted. I stood up and turned to leave. The pitiful and depressed look in Lucas‘s eyes made me very uncomfortable, but I told myself that I couldn’t turn back and I couldn’t continue to be entangled with Herbert. “Bella, Lucas is our first child. When you gave birth to him, he didn‘t die!” As soon as I took a few steps, I heard the voice of Herbert behind me.
Hearing this, I was stunned, but I didn‘t look back.
This sentence had a great impact on me. The child I lost back then was a huge blow to me. After all these years, even now, I would still think of that child, and my heart would still feel pain! After all, it was my first child. Herbert continued, “If you want to know everything you can come to me at any time!” “Do you think I believe you?” I turned my back to him and refused to believe what he said was true. “You‘ve missed him for more than three years. Do you want to miss his whole childhood?‘ said Herbert.
At this time, I couldn‘t control myself. I turned my head and saw the backs of Herbert and Lucas. The backs of the adult and child were almost a copy. At this moment, Lucas was still looking back at me, and his eyes were very pitiful. This made my heart even more uncomfortable. Standing there until their backs disappeared on the other end of the street, I turned and left. As soon as I walked out of the corner, I saw from afar, that Klein was standing in front of the car and looking in this direction. I hurriedly sped up and ran over. “Why did it

“His parents have taken him away. Let‘s go back. I‘m sure Lucky has been waiting for a long time.” I didn‘t want to mention what had just happened. “Alright.” Klein didn‘t ask any more questions, and he got in the cor with me. That night, I laid on the bed and looked at Lucky who was asleep. My thoughts began to wander. To be exact, my doubts had not stopped since I came back
There was no need for a DNA test. As long as I looked at Lucas, I knew that he should be the son of
terbert. But how could he say that Lucas was my son? Suddenly, I thought of an important message. ucas‘s birthday was very close to the date of my miscarriage. Thinking of this, I suddenly sat up. “It can‘t be so coincidental, can it? Will Herbert give birth to a :hild with another woman and me at the same time?” Nhat exactly was Herbert trying to do? If this child really was my child, why had he lied to me back hen and told me that the child had died? And why hadn‘t he said anything for so many years? And only today did he reveal to me when I was going to marry Klein? n the beginning. I was certain that Herbert was trying to destroy my marriage with Klein by using Lucas. But the suspicion in my heart were getting bigger and bigger. In fact, I also had an extravagant hope n my heart that what Herbert said was true, and I hoped that Lucas was really the child I gave birth to. I really hoped that the child didn’t die at that time, and hoped that he would still live well in the world. Even if Herbert wanted to plot something big, I was not afraid. I only hoped that my son was still alive! Early in the morning. I finally made a decision after staying up almost the whole night. “I‘m going to find Herbert. No matter what kind of conspiracy he‘s up to, I‘m going to figure it out.” B Looking at Lucky sleeping, I touched her little face and said softly, “If you have a brother to play with, will you be happy?” Lucky‘s chubby little face was motionless. I stared at her for a moment and then said,
“No matter what the result is, I must figure it out. I must find out whether Lucas is my son or not.” After daybreak, I couldn‘t be bothered with anything else and immediately dialed Connor‘s number. “Hello, may I ask who you are?” Connor‘s voice sounded from the other end.
“Connor, it‘s me.” My hand holding the phone was a little nervous. “Miss Stepanek?‘ The person who answered my call was clearly a little surprised. “I want to see Herbert as soon as possible. Please arrange it for me.” I said in a low voice. The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, “Alright, Miss Stepanek. I’ll arrange everything.”
“Thank you.” i hung up the phone.
Soon, in less than two minutes, my phone rang.
Seeing that it was Connor‘s phone number, I immediately picked it up.
“Hello?” I was a little anxious. I couldn‘t wait to see him now.
“Miss Stepanek, Mr. Wharton said that he would be waiting for you at his house at nine o‘clock this morning” Connor said.
I frowned. “His home?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI had to meet him at his place? If he wanted to do something to me, I couldn‘t resist him at all.
So I hesitated.
Connor seemed to have been prepared for my worries, and then said, “Miss Stepanek, Mr. Wharton said that he arranged the meeting at home furstly because he didn‘t want outsiders to know about it. Secondly, he wanted you to see some of the things that belonged to Lucas when he was young. If you still don‘t feel at ease, then he asked me to accompany you throughout the
entire meeting.” Even if Connor accompanied me throughout the entire process, what difference could it make? He was still obeying Herbert‘s orders. This was simply a trick to trick a child. But I really wanted to know more about Lucas‘s family background. I really wanted to know if he was my son or not. I had decided to prepare a weapon for myself. I would make a trip to Herbert‘s house.
“Well, tell him that I‘ll be there on time.”
“Okay.” After that, he hung up the phone.
It didn’t take long for Jane to arrive. Lucky woke up too. After breakfast, I went into the kitchen and put a knife into my handbag.
