All Chapters of Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife : Chapter 291 - Chapter 300

Heidi followed Lucas out of the kitchen, grumbling some incoherent words. Inside the living room, she sat on the couch and he sat beside her. Heidi shifted away, and Lucas shifted close to her. “What do you want?” “What was the ultrasound result?” His eyes lit up, seemingly eager and excited to know the answer. “Are we having a girl?” “No!” His excitement toned down a bit, his smile decreasing. “Well, is it a boy?” “No!” A big frown formed on his forehead at her answer. Lucas threw her a helpless look. “I had to hurry to the company, sorry I couldn't accompany you.” “Is the company more important than my baby?” “You mean our baby,” Lucas corrected her. “Of course not. But I had to.” Heidi remained silent, counting imaginary lines on the floor. “It won't happen again, I promise.” She didn't reply, but her stiff body loosened up. Taking that as a sign that she wasn't mad at him anymore, Lucas said, “Will you now tell me the baby's gender?” “I'm serious, I don't know.” “W

Before the phone touched the ground, Lucas caught it quickly.Heidi slumped on the couch, supporting her forehead with both hands, anxiety creasing her brows. “Ms. Olsen- Ms. Olsen, are you still there?” Isla's frantic voice sounded through the phone. “Ms. Olsen-”“Heidi, are you alright?” Lucas knelt in front of her, his eyes flashing with worry. “Speak to me, Heidi.”“Ms. Olsen-”“Is that how you speak to a pregnant lady!?” Lucas yelled into the phone, interrupting Isla's voice.His rage took over and he didn't think twice before yelling the angry words. Silence hung in the atmosphere.Heidi gasped and looked up. From the other end of the phone, Isla also gasped. And Lucas…When he realized what he just did, he slapped his forehead, shaking his head. “Th-That is Lucas Harrison's voice. Ms. Olsen, are you in the same place? What's going on?”Heidi was so shaken and confused that she remained motionless and unresponsive. “Ms. Olsen. What are you doing in the same place as Lucas Ha

“Dad is right. Heidi has changed,” Regina nodded. “I can't believe she's my daughter. I text her every day, but…” Regina wiped her tears. “You know what? I'm so mad at her right now.”“Steve Anderson promised to bring her but he didn't. I think he's keeping Heidi away intentionally. And the silly girl listens to him.”“I wonder if she's going to abandon me too after I die,” Grandpa Jeffery went on in a sullen voice. “That girl prefers her men over her own family.”“Why are you all complaining about Heidi to Grandma?” Zach butted in. “Do you want Grandma's ghost to haunt her or what?”“Shut up, what do you know?” Grandpa Jeffery glared at him. “You're all useless. Why do you defend her when she didn't even care to visit you at the hospital?”“But Kate always does. She also complains Heidi doesn't answer her phone.”“You see?” Grandpa Jeffery sighed. “The AG Group is in trouble again. My weak heart can't take it any longer. Heidi promised to save the AG Group, but she didn't care to com

“Why are you so quiet?” Lucas asked her the same question she'd asked him as he drove the car down the city.Why was she quiet?Ever since Heidi had that realization, she couldn't find her voice.It was as if her tongue had been tied and whatever she wanted to say slipped her mind. Consumed by many thoughts at once and the memories flooding back of her relentlessly chasing the man, now it all felt like a big joke.But the drowning incident…If he didn't recognize her in broad daylight, was it inside the water that he would? Asking about it would only disappoint her further. Because Heidi felt so disappointed right now that the man she'd spent so many years loving didn't even know that she existed. “Heidi…”She only looked at him when he called out for the second time. Seeing the wariness as well as worry in his eyes, Heidi's heart throbbed.“What's the matter?”“You're not yourself.”“I'm fine.”“You can tell me whatever's bothering you. I'll do anything to make it go away.”“It's

Late?Lucas's hand trembled with the phone, his fingers curling around it, the rage inside his heart intensifying.“What nonsense is this?” He spoke to the empty air, knowing they might be near. Hoping they were near. “You gave me an hour. I came earlier.”The phone beeped. He looked at the screen, reading the next text that popped. [To save her, bring more bags of money.]Now his rage was beyond control. His eyes swept across the darkness, squinting them for a proper glimpse. Something told him they were so close. And they had Heidi. “Is this intentional? You should have demanded more before I came here.”[We had a change of mind...] Another text came in. [... We feel just a billion isn't enough. Or is she not worth the wealth you've gathered.]Was it some kind of test or what?“I demand you stand by your promise.”[Mr. Harrison, we command and you obey.]Annoyed and irritated, Lucas's hand instinctively reached for the gun in his pants pocket. Then he halted. Heidi was in their
