Billionaire's Stubborn Slave Wife

Since Matthew's order, Lauren was no longer simply trapped in her room, but was free to walk around the yard.

"Miss Li, do you want to take a break."

Since Lauren begged for mercy, Cindy has been even more faithful in guarding Lauren's side, afraid that she might encounter the slightest danger.

"No, the air is nice today, I want to walk around the yard, Cindy, you don't have to follow me closely, don't worry, I won't leave within a month, and Matthew won't punish you for that reason." Cindy's caution made Lauren feel a little funny.

"No, I'm going to stay by your side and not leave you."

Cindy's words made Lauren smile. For this loyalty of hers, Lauren really felt very unnecessary, but there was no choice but to let Cindy stay by her side.

After a few days of recuperation, Lauren's wounds, no longer appear any painful reaction, the woman who brought her food, also did not appear in front of her.

The day passed very calmly, calmly with a touch of weirdness.

"Miss Li, sir asked you to meet him on the rooftop."

Lauren nodded and put down the newspaper in her hand, and there was no longer any gossip about Matthew in the newspapers these days.

Lauren unhurriedly came to the rooftop, the night today, really suitable for stargazing, just such a night. For her, there is no impact. A heart that has died, there is no chance of getting back together again. "What do you want to see me about?"

Lauren's calmness caused Matthew, who was sitting in a chair, to turn back.

"Come sit down."

The voice of Matthew was full of tiredness and helplessness. Lauren felt a little surprised, but still sat beside him, she really did not want to, in this month, still full of pain and suffering.

"The stars are beautiful today. Don't you usually like looking at the stars the most? There's a meteor shower tonight." Matthew said to Lauren with a tenderness that he had never had before. Lauren let out a soft sigh.

"Matthew, you know what? If it were before, you spoke to me so gently, I could be so happy that I couldn't sleep for days and nights. But now the situation is different, when I am hurt, my heart no longer has any touch. I really can't feel any tenderness, any warmth when these words are heard in my ears, do you understand?"

Matthew sighed softly, pulled out the cigarette in his hand and put it in his mouth.

"You never used to smoke."

Matthew nodded.

"I didn't used to smoke, but since you've been in the hospital, cigarettes have never left me. Do you know what it feels like to have the bitter taste slide down your throat and into your stomach? This period, not only you feel tired, I also feel the same some tired. I'm so tired that I don't want to deal with my work, and I let my rivals steal my business again and again, but I don't want to steal it back again." Matthew's words made Lauren very surprised, was this really the Matthew she knew who put work first and could give up everything for work? Why could she not see in his eyes the kind of love he used to have for his work.

"Are you really tired?"

Matthew nodded his head. Then he took a hard drag on his cigarette.

"Very tired, very tired, especially with you, I'm really afraid that you will lose you. I'm really conflicted, on the one hand I want to let go and let you go, and on the other hand I intend to keep you tied to me and not let you leave. It's this kind of ambivalence that keeps me in a state of exhaustion, not knowing how to make a choice."

"Matthew, have you been drinking?" Although the words used were questionable, Lauren said it in a definite tone.

The close proximity allowed Lauren to clearly smell the heavy smell of alcohol coming from Matthew, especially his breath, which was full of alcohol.

"I was drinking, are you in a position to control me? You are not my wife, and in this world, you, the daughter of an enemy, are the least qualified to be in charge of me."

Lauren sighed softly, this was the real Matthew, the Matthew she knew, the real him who would face her so forcefully. The gentle Matthew from earlier was just an illusion of hers.

"Matthew, I don't want to have any quarrel with you here, I just want to spend this month in peace, with any tiredness you have, without any dissatisfaction. You can go to your women, you can go to them and confide in them, and I'm sure they will listen to you very carefully."

Having said that, Lauren stood up, turned around and walked out of the rooftop. She left Matthew alone on the rooftop.

Lauren, who walked down from the rooftop, went straight back to her room. In her mind, the gentle side of Matthew just now kept surfacing.

Her hands gently touched her stomach.

She could be absolutely sure that there was already a little baby inside her belly. But this little baby will not live in a sound family.

Because she will have a father who is full of hatred for her mother.

"Miss Li, are you in there? I have something I want to tell you."

Cindy's knock on the door made Lauren hurriedly take her hands off her belly, she would never let anyone know that there was a little baby inside her belly, especially Matthew. "Cindy, is something wrong?"

Lauren asked Cindy in a soft voice. Cindy looked around and didn't find anyone else before pointing to the silver ring on Lauren's ankle.

"Go ahead, now Matthew is on the rooftop, he won't be back at the computer for a while, he won't know we're talking right now."

Cindy was relieved to hear Lauren say that.

"Miss, do you know Lisa?"

The three words, Lisa, hit Lauren like a bolt from the blue.

"What's wrong with her? She is my mother; how do you know her?"

Although this mother did not love her at all, Lauren still had love for this mother, and was afraid that she would be hurt.

"She is now in Mr.'s hands, and I also just received a phone call from a stranger, and because it was Mr.'s exclusive phone, the other party gave the name under the assumption that I was Mr." "What did he say?"

Lauren took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, because she knew that the only way to buy time to know more was to calm down, and once Matthew returned to the study from the rooftop and turned on the computer screen, he would immediately know what was going on on his side.

"The other side just said that this person was taken by them to the place that Mr. know, exactly what place, he did not say, but from what he said, it seems to have punished Lisa, because I can hear the woman's voice begging for help coming from the phone."

"Oh my God."

Lauren couldn't take the blow and almost fell to the ground, but luckily Cindy beside her held her in place.

"Miss Li. Are you okay?"

Lauren shook her head for a long time.

"I'm fine, stop talking, I heard Matthew's footsteps, he's going back to the study soon, Cindy, you must act as if nothing happened, if Matthew knows that you answered his personal phone, he won't let you go. Got it?"

Lauren admonished Cindy.

Cindy nodded with understanding and followed Lauren's instructions. She gathered her clothes for the occasion and left the villa.

Not long after, Lauren, who was in her room trying to figure out what to do, heard Matthew's rage coming from the hall. She rushed out of the room to the hall. "What's going on?"

Lauren asked the maid beside her cautiously.

The maid shook her head.

"We don't know exactly what's going on, we only know that it seems like someone answered Mr.'s private phone call, and now Mr. is tracking down this person."

The maid's words made Lauren's heart startled, and she couldn't help but glance at Cindy in the hall, who was also frightened and pale, her shoulders emitting tremors from time to time.

Lauren hurriedly walked to Cindy's side. Then she reminded in a low voice: "Cindy, you have to calm down, or you will only die. You find a chance to get out of here. You take your things and leave the villa quickly, do you understand?"

Cindy nodded and took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. But her eyes didn't dare to look at Matthew, afraid that Matthew might find out something.
