Chapter 848  : To Be Estranged in the Same Room (1)

Lu Bancheng had called Xu Wennuan so many times that he had stopped keeping track by the time the sky darkened. When he’d texted or called her, the only responses he had gotten were either no response or an automated voice saying, “Sorry, the number you have dialed is not available.”

Lu Bancheng could not figure out what was wrong with himself; he was extremely flustered. He put his phone aside and sat in the car, thinking.Inside the box was the ring he had bought after they had obtained their marriage certificate, after which he had forced her to have sex with him. Even though she didn’t need him to take care of her, he still treated her as his wife deep down in his heart. He intended to give her the ring when she returned home that night and tell her again what he felt for her.

Oh, right, and she cannot continue to work now that she’s pregnant. I must look for a caretaker to be by her side around the clock…

Lu Bancheng picked up his phone to call his secretary, asked her to look for a good caretaker, and ended the call, He gripped the test strip in his hand, staring at those two red lines, as happiness surfaced in his eyes.

She’s pregnant with my child…

All this while, he had been wondering how he could change their relationship for the better. He had not expected God to give him this gift as the answer.

She’ll slowly change her attitude toward me for the sake of the child… I don’t expect her to like me more… No, no, I don’t. I just want her to stop hating me so much and for her to be willing to live with me. As long as she’s willing to, I’ll give her everything.

Lu Bancheng could not help laughing as he thought about this. Then, he heard sounds coming from outside the door. He dashed out of the master bedroom and toward the entrance, arriving just in time to see the door being opened by Xu Wennuan. Dressed all in black, she walked in slowly.
