Chapter 79: Step away from her
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56However, as an educated and composed individual, Lani wouldn't want to talk to Amory. Both of them being celebrities, any sign of them together would undoubtedly spark an unwelcome scandal if spotted by reporters or anyone else.
So, Lani curved her lips into a smile, but the gaze she directed at Amory was as cold as an ice cellar.
"Want to return to loving me again? Sure!"
Amory's eyes gleamed like car headlights, a mixture of anticipation and triumph evident in his demeanor, sending shivers down Lani's spine. At this moment, she was genuinely curious – why did she once love someone so malicious and dreadful, even enduring the pain of infidelity?

As Kane and Lani returned together, Kane's mood was oddly upbeat. Despite his injured hand, he didn't seem to mind, humming a tune while driving."Anything exciting at the company today?" Lani asked, thinking that perhaps Kane had signed a significant contract or achieved some successful deal, but she wasn't expecting Kane's response.Kane's response caught her off guard."Yeah, very joyful. You defending me made me happy.""I used to think that you only considered me a substitute for Amory, so I felt quite sad for a long time. Unexpectedly, it was all a misunderstanding."Kane spoke softly, but Lani could sense the underlying frustration. It was a topic she had never brought up before, thinking Kane hadn't noticed, and she didn't want to bring up the despicable man Amory. However, Kane not only cared deeply, but he also felt upset about this matter."Kane, initially marrying you was indeed a rash decision on my part, but it's because I genuinely wanted to be with you, not because I s

Maris spotted Lani approaching, Maris's steps lively and swift. Lani enthusiastically greeted her and handed her two pastry boxes."Why go through all the trouble, bringing sweet treats like this? You've already worked hard enough. Next time, you don't have to bring pastries. Take a good rest whenever you have the time," Maris remarked.Maris, captivated by the pastry boxes, couldn't let go. However, she didn't forget to remind Lani not to overexert herself. A month apart, and Maris sensed that Lani had become thinner, sparking concern."It's okay, Mom. I enjoy baking. It helps me relax and feel more at ease," Lani reassured."Why don't you try opening one and having some yourself? If you like it, I'll bring you some whenever I come," Lani suggested.Maris, with a sweet tooth, eagerly nodded upon hearing this. She opened the pastry box, grabbed three paper plates and a serving dish, then cut a piece of tiramisu for each person.It was Lani's most confident creation. The bitterness of

Lani pondered incessantly on this matter. Even as she and Kane returned home in the evening, she remained silent, deep in thought. Kane, being perceptive, noticed the unusual shift in Lani's emotions and understood to some extent what she might be worrying about.Therefore, in the evening, as the two lay on the bed, preparing to sleep, he suddenly spoke up."There's no need to rush about having a child. It does not depend on my mom's intention, and I don't want you to change any plans in your life. Remember, your life, your choice, and neither of us has the right to decide for you."Kane spoke firmly, his warm voice conveying reassurance to Lani. She nodded, expressing her feelings."Let's discuss this in a year or two. I believe that would be the right time to prepare for parenthood. Currently, I honestly don't feel ready."Lani's voice was soft and carried a hint of hesitation as if she had revealed something personal. Kane embraced Lani, comforting her with gentle strokes on her ba

That evening, when Lani returned home, she recounted the incident to Kane, still angry and venting her frustration."Mark is no different from Amory, both terrible men with inflated egos. They both think that a simple apology is enough for forgiveness. They need to take a good look at themselves. Maybe their homes don't have mirrors, or everyone there is delusional, thinking they're the most handsome men in the world, and every girl must love them."Lani spoke continuously, and Kane, sensing her irritation, placed a warm cup of water in front of her. Lani took the cup, took a sip, and back it on the table, continuing her tirade."Hey, you're not turning into someone like that in the future right? Arrogant and looking down on others, thinking you're the center of the universe?"Lani suddenly looked at Kane cautiously, uncertainly questioning. She observed Kane from head to toe, chin in hand, her face showing contemplation, wondering how Kane would react if he displayed those traits. Th
The Billionaire's Flash Marriage: Baby, I'm Sorry Chapter 84: Exploiting each other for publicity
However, a rumor about Lani and Kane's relationship began to circulate.After a livestream mishap, during which they publicly acknowledged their relationship, Lani refrained from posting photos of her and Kane on social media. They were also not spotted by reporters on any public outings.Consequently, speculation arose that Lani and Kane's supposed marriage was merely a publicity stunt to gain fame.Following the rumor, Lani became even more famous, and Kane garnered increased attention, leading to a significant rise in his company's stock price.With both benefiting from the situation, bloggers and journalists began to suspect whether they were exploiting each other for publicity.While such rumors were not uncommon in the entertainment industry, Lani and Kane chose not to address them further, leaving the public to believe their speculations were accurate.People continued to insist that Lani was still single, pairing her with Eric due to their on-screen chemistry in the new film.

Kane remained silent, pretending to be asleep. Lani, left with no other option, took the initiative to speak up."Is it because of the scene from earlier?" she asked.The mention of that scene made Kane unable to stay silent or pretend any longer. He turned, hugging Lani, but his whole body seemed to shrink, appearing vulnerable and pitiful."Yeah. Every time I see you being intimate with someone else, I find it hard to breathe, and it hurts. Even though I know it's just a scene in a movie and not real life, my heart still feels constricted," Kane confessed.Seeing Kane genuinely distressed, Lani decided to stop teasing him. She gently patted his back and s

"How about moving in with me? It'll be safer. Even if Mark manages to find you, he won't dare to approach you. There's 24/7 security outside the compound, and inside, there's Kane," Lani quickly suggested. Remaining outside was not a viable solution for Aurora.Mark could track and discover her new address, leading to unpredictable consequences."Wouldn't that disturb you and Kane? If I stay there, you two won't be as intimate," Aurora teased Lani.Lani cleared her throat and blushed, playfully hitting Aurora's shoulder."What nonsense are you talking about? Kane's house is spacious with plenty of rooms, and we're more than willing to invite you. Isn't that

Adonis, also known as Hebe's sugar daddy, inquired with a gaze directed towards Lani. "Yes, that's the cunning step-sister who constantly bullies me, as I've shared with you before. Later on, I plan to find a way to retaliate against her. When she tries to harm me, you must appear promptly to defend me, alright?"Observing Adonis nod in agreement, Hebe cast another glance in Lani's direction, her eyes revealing a sinister intent, fingers clenched tightly to the point where veins surfaced in a shade of green. Recently, she hadn't been able to approach or encounter Lani, and now she had an opportunity to cross paths. At the very least, she had to be sure that Lani faced some misfortune.Lani and Aurora, oblivious to Hebe's scrutinizing gaze, continued to enjoy their lunch. A while later, as Lani drank orange juice, she suddenly felt a chilling sensation on her skirt. A stream of red liquid flowed down her dress, pooling onto the floor. Lani instinctively stood up, barely able to voice a

Aurora drove Lani back home. On the way, she received a call from Ryan. His voice was urgent as he explained that he had forgotten an important document at home and needed it for a meeting at the company. He asked if Aurora could conveniently swing by his place, pick up the document, and bring it to the office. Ryan's urgent tone worried Aurora, but she reassured him. "Don't worry. Just wait for me a moment. I'll drive to your place right away." Although aware of what was happening, Lani still pretended to be surprised. She looked at Aurora's worried face and asked, "What's wrong? Does Ryan have something urgent at the company?" Aurora nodded, explaining briefly, "Ryan forgot an important document at home. I'll take you home first. Then I'll drive to Ryan's place to bring him the document." Lani nodded, comforting Aurora. "It's okay. Stay calm. Ryan's work is more important. You drive to his place first." Aurora nodded. Along the way, Lani would occasionally glance at Aurora. He

The next day,Lani went shopping with Aurora. Her belly had grown, causing her previous clothes, especially the fitted dresses that accentuated her curves, to no longer fit comfortably. So, she strolled through the mall with Aurora to buy some looser-fitting dresses to wear at home."Hey, do you think I need to buy clothes for my dear daughter in advance?" Lani gestured towards the store across the street. "There's a children's clothing store over there that has beautiful clothes. I want to buy some for my daughter."Aurora nodded. "Sure, let's go. I also want to buy a few dresses for my goddaughter."Lani and Aurora enjoyed their shopping spree, picking out quite a few outfits for the newborn baby girl. It will ship to Lani's house.Lani looked excitedly at the staff who was wrapping the tiny clothes in a delicate box."They're so beautiful. I'm sure my daughter will love them."Rubbing her belly, Lani smiled as if she were talking to the baby. "My little Ice Cream, do you like these

When it came to naming their child, Kane felt helpless with Lani. She always insisted she was carrying a daughter, citing her intuition as always correct.So from time to time, Lani would come up with a few names for her daughter and then ask Kane what he thought of them.It wasn't the first time Kane looked helplessly at Lani."How can you be so sure you're having a girl?" he asked.Lani mysteriously smiled. "That's a mother's intuition.""But you didn't answer me, did you? How do you feel about the name Ice Cream? Or maybe we should name our daughter Strawberry?"Lani wanted to give her child this name for a simple reason. She loved ice cream, especially strawberry ice cream. Yet during the early months of pregnancy, Kane didn't allow her to eat ice cream, so she wanted to name her child Ice Cream as an expression of her fondness.Lani seemed to like this name, giggling as she rubbed her belly. She was pregnant three months along. It had grown a little larger, and she rubbed it exci

After their conversation, Kane urged Lani to have breakfast. He prepared a table full of diverse dishes for her, including chicken congee, salad, egg sandwiches, and milk. Lani looked at the spread in amazement."I won't be able to eat all of this. It's too much," Lani remarked.Kane gently stroked her head."It's okay. Eat as much as you want. You haven't been eating much lately due to morning sickness, so I cooked dishes to help you eat more."The three of them sat down for breakfast. And Kane kept adding more food to Lani's plate."Have another piece of sausage. It's delicious.""The salad is also tasty, with a light and refreshing flavor. Can you eat a bit more?""Do you want some more congee? I'll get you a little more. The chicken is cooked so tenderly; it tastes amazing."Lani ate until she was comfortably full, rubbing her belly."It's all because of you. I'm so full I can't get up anymore," Lani joked.Kane chuckled, lifting Lani carefully and leading her to the living room.

Lani thought that compared to her, Kane was calmer and more composed about her pregnancy. He acted cautiously, protecting and caring for her well, always rational and reliable. But it seemed that Lani was somewhat misunderstanding. Compared to her, Kane sometimes seemed more childish.For example, at present.After dinner, they sat on the sofa and watched a movie. Roger called. He recounted the busy past few months abroad working on a successful collaborative project and was now back in town.Kane turned on the speaker. So Lani could hear Roger's excited voice."Haven't seen you in a few months, how about going out for drinks? Me, Leo, and Ryan will be there. Come here for some fun."Kane made a noise of surprise, asking, "Huh? What? Are you congratulating me?""You know I'm about to become a father? How could you know that?""Yeah, that's right. Lani's been pregnant for two months now."Not only was Roger shocked on the other end of the line, but Lani was also surprised. She rubbed h

The days of rest for Lani have arrived. Compared to her, Kane seems even more tense.Lani sleeps until noon, waking up in Kane's embrace. Kane will smile at her, gently rubbing her belly."Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Are you tired?" he would ask.Lani has explained many times.She's not even two months pregnant yet.And her belly is still flat as usual. But Kane enjoys touching Lani's belly. He claims he can feel the baby growing inside her when he touches it.Lani is sure this is just Kane's imagination, but she doesn't have the heart to disillusion him and make him sad.She shakes her head and reassures him that she's fine.Kane helps her sit up, carefully takes her hand, and leads her off the bed, then guides her into the bathroom to brush her teeth.Kane hands her a cup of warm water, helping her get toothpaste and massaging her scalp."I'll go downstairs to make breakfast for you. Come down when you're brushing," Kane says.Lani nods drowsily.As she descends the stairs,

The female doctor emerged with the results. Though the scene mirrored what had happened a few minutes ago, the emotions of the three were now quite different.They anxiously watched the doctor, who seemed to want to smile. She looked kindly at Lani."Congratulations. You're six weeks pregnant," The doctor said.Lani's mind was sluggish. The chaotic sounds swirling around her left her bewildered. She stared blankly at the doctor, unable to react. Her lips moved as if wanting to say something, but no words came out.Sensing Lani's daze, the doctor approached and placed the result paper into her hand."Rest well and avoid high-intensity work like you've been doing," the doctor advised, glancing at Aurora and Kane sitting nearby."You two are Lani's husband and close friend, right? Take good care of her. The first few months of pregnancy are crucial. She needs plenty of rest, a balanced diet, and should avoid..."The doctor proceeded to give a series of instructions for pregnant women. Au

In the following days, Lani must balance shooting her film and meeting Ryan to plan their engagement. Despite her busy schedule, Lani remained cheerful and relaxed.After finishing a scene and resting in the dressing room, Lani would look at Aurora, who was giggling mischievously."What's so funny? Why are you laughing so happily?" Aurora asked, surprised, as she touched Lani's face, her expression dreamy."It's a secret," Lani replied mysteriously.Aurora thought Lani's laughter might be due to stress from filming, so she didn't pay too much attention to it.Then, one day, while filming, Lani suddenly raised her hand to signal a break and rushed into the restroom to vomit.Concerned, Aurora followed her and found Lani standing in the restroom, exhausted, with her head hanging over the toilet but unable to vomit anything. Aurora rubbed Lani's back to make her feel more comfortable."What's wrong? Are you feeling very uncomfortable?" Aurora asked anxiously."I don't know what's happeni

Lani relaxed and enjoyed herself in the following days until she received a phone call from Ryan."Lani, could you help me with something?" Ryan's voice sounded nervous and anxious, making Lani tense up. She asked in surprise, "What's going on?"Ryan hesitated for a while, not knowing where to start. He sounded flustered. "It's a long story. I can't explain it in a few sentences. Can you meet me? Let's meet at the coffee shop near your house!""And also, please keep it a secret from Aurora. Don't let her know we're meeting," Ryan added.Lani agreed, and Ryan said they would meet in an hour.After hanging up, Lani looked puzzled and asked Kane. He was sitting beside her, "What's going on? Ryan sounded very serious."Kane stroked Lani's hair and calmly looked at her. "I guess Ryan wants you to help him plan a proposal to Aurora."Kane conveyed a lot with just a short sentence. And Lani understood.She exclaimed, realizing that was why Ryan had asked her not to let Aurora know about the
