Chapter 374 Who Knows Who the Baby's Father Is
Chapter 374 Who Knows Who the Baby's Father Is
It was Rosy.
Rosy was stunned when she saw Linda. She hadn't seen Linda after her face had completely
recovered, so she didn't even recognize Linda.
"Who are you? Why are you here? People not from the Nalan clan aren't allowed to be in the plum
garden. Don't you know that?"
Linda smiled and shook her head, thinking why Rosy was saying these words to her again. When Rosy
had met Linda for the first time, she also asked Linda such questions. Linda wondered whether these
were the only words Rosy knew to say. How boring.
"Does me being here have anything to do with you?" asked Linda flatly.
Her voice was familiar to Rosy. With a frightened expression on her face, Rosy asked, "Are you
Haley?"
Linda didn't want to talk with her. Since there was someone else in the plum garden already, Linda was
in no mood to stroll here anymore, so she turned around to leave.
Bun carefully supported Linda with her hands, without saying anything.
"Your face is different. Have you gotten a cosmetic surgery?" said Rosy behind Linda.
"What's it to you?"
Linda turned her head around with an indifferent expression on her face.
After she heard Linda, Rosy was certain that Linda had cosmetic surgery.
She also guessed that it was the reason why Linda's face was covered with scars when she saw her
for the first time. Those were surgical scars. At that moment, Rosy seemed pleased.
"Your face has changed a lot. I'm worried about you. I will recommend a great cosmetic institution to
you. You can go there to have your face checked to avoid the relapse."
After hearing those words, Linda immediately left without turning her head to look at Rosy.
She didn't intend to explain anything to Rosy since it was unnecessary for her to do so.
She thought there was no need to stoop down to Rosy's level.
Rosy was the sort of person who tried to lower others' IQ to her level first before arguing with them.
Rosy believed that she had seen through Linda, and her words had touched a sore spot, so she
became even more happy. While staring at Linda's back, she added, "I haven't seen you for a couple of
months. And your belly is getting so large. You became pregnant before getting married, right? You
must have tried every means to get a chance to sleep with Young Master Mu. Am I right? I've heard
that Young Master Mu once had a woman he loved."
It was winter when Rosy saw Linda last time, so she didn't see that Linda was pregnant at that time
because of her coat and muffler. Now, it was spring, and it was easy to see her bulging belly.
Rosy kept guessing who the father of the baby in Linda's belly was.
She started speculating long time ago, but she hadn't guessed it. Now she knew that it was Charles's
baby. Otherwise, Charles wouldn't have abandoned his previous beloved to marry this woman.
Rosy also speculated that Lord Nalan forced Charles to marry Haley. Only in this way could he
abandon the woman he loved.
That woman Charles loved was the so-called Lady of the Xia clan.
She had been missing for many years.
Bun was annoyed by Rosy's words. She was about to turn around and explain the matter to Rosy, but
Linda stopped her.
Linda beckoned her to calm down at this moment. There was no need for any explanation now. They
could let Rosy take pleasure in Linda's misfortune for a while.
When she saw Linda leave without saying any word, Rosy was very happy. 'How can you compete
against me with what's coming your way?'
After they left the plum garden, Bun couldn't help but ask, "My Lady, why didn't you tell her that you are
not only Linda but also Haley? She gloated over your misfortune. I was so angry just now that I really
wanted to beat her up."
"Don't worry. She is pleased with herself now. We can let her be happy for a while. When she finds out
the truth, she will be ashamed at how stupid she was, "
Said Linda with a sly smile.
To make a person know how stupid she was, one should let her realize it herself, instead of directly
telling her. Making her angry as a result of embarrassment was a good way to get back at her.
Rosy would surely have such an experience later.
Linda didn't have to explain anything to Rosy. When the truth was revealed, Rosy would realise how
stupid she was.
Bun thought that Linda's words made sense.
Since Bun had spent a lot of time with Linda, she increasingly regarded Linda's words as reasonable
and sensible. Bun admired Linda so much.
It was five o'clock in the afternoon.
The Nalan clan's family dinner party was about to start. Linda rushed to the place where they would
have the dinner.
Charles sent a massage to Linda.
"Honey, I'm dealing with some company issues, so I will arrive half an hour later. Please apologize to
grandfather for me."
He was going to be late because of his company's affairs. Linda showed understanding for him and This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
replied to his message, "Okay. Be careful on the road. Ask Paul to drive carefully."
Linda's message was heartwarming, making Charles smile.
The dinner started at five o'clock sharp, so Linda went there with Bun first.
When Linda entered the room, many people had already arrived, all of them sitting at a large table.
Linda glanced around and saw some people she knew. She also found other people from the Nalan
clan whom she didn't know.
After Linda went inside, Lord Nalan introduced some members of the clan to Linda. Of course, he didn't
have to introduce those whom Linda had known before, such as Rosy and Lenny, Rosy's father. It was
the first time that Linda had met Felix, her uncle, as well as Patrick and Murphy who were Felix's
children.
"Hi, I'm Murphy. I'm older than you, so you're my younger sister. You are Haley, right?" Murphy stood
up and greeted Linda warmly.
Linda looked at Murphy and found that Murphy's eyes seemed to be full of sincerity. But Linda believed
that she might also be a spiteful lady.
Linda had once studied psychology, so she knew people, including their subtle expressions.
Linda didn't say anything to displease her but instead smiled and sweetly greeted her.
"Haley, are you pregnant? I bet it must be Young Master Mu's baby. Congratulations. You should be
careful during the pregnancy, " said Murphy.
Linda nodded, but she was very furious at Murphy's words.
She wondered why Murphy said such things in a malicious way. She was going to marry Charles, and if
the baby in her belly wasn't Charles's child, then who was the father of the baby?
"Who knows who the father of the baby in her belly is? I've heard that Young Master Mu once loved the
Lady of the Xia clan. They broke up afterwards, but I don't know why. I've heard that the Lady of the Xia
clan is auntie Sherry's biological daughter, " said Rosy sourly.
