Chapter 7 I Never See Him In the Face, Is He Ugly?
In the morning, Ms.He threw a folder in front of Ivanka Bai and said with no expression: "Read the contents first."
"What's this?" Ivanka opened the folder and glanced over it, in which stated that she couldn't be close to Nangong family's ancestral hall, couldn't reveal any secrets about Nangong family, and couldn't turn on the lights at night when she was with Charles Nangong during her days at Nangong family...
Many prohibited things.
Couldn't turn on the lights? What did this mean?
No wonder why the lights were off both times she saw Charles? Was it because he was ugly? Didn't he dare to see anyone? Or...had he been so sick that he got out of shape?
And there was another regulation that she should bear a child for Nangong family in two months.
"The young lord is always secretive in his movement. It is impossible to have a child in two months." She retorted.
Mrs. Nangong sneered: "Miss Bai, although it has been proven that you are not the destined lover of the young lord, the ring can't be taken off. We can only reluctantly keep you, and the only purpose is to have a child."
At first, Mrs. Nangong did want to dispose of her like those previous women, but on second thought, Charles would soon be thirty years old with no children.
If he couldn't find that destined lover within a year, and as Monk Wang had said, if he couldn't pass his thirty, then Nangong family’s line would be broken. If Ivanka could give birth to a son or a daughter for Nangong family within this year, at least... Nangong family would still have a successor.
"But...young lord said that he would set me free as long as I take off the ring." Ivanka mumbled.
"When you give birth to a son, I'll set you free as well."
"No... "
"Miss Bai, it is already our greatest tolerance for you. You’d better accept it." Mrs. Nangong was nearly impatient. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
What tolerance? This was clearly just to torture her in different ways.
She could be free only after bearing a child for Charles. It was just the same as selling a child. What was the difference between him and his brutal father?
So not only did she have to take off the ring, but also have to give birth to a child to be free?
Safely spending the night, today was the day of the third generation’s return to the family. Ms.He stuffed all sorts of valuable gifts throughout the trunk of the car, then turned to Ivanka: "Young lord has yet to be discharged from the hospital, so Mr. Wang will accompany you to your family."
"OK." Ivanka didn't care about it and didn't dare to expect Charles to accompany her back.
She just ignored this mysterious husband, who had never formally met her once.
Moreover, she originally had no intention of going back to her family. Because she would only be scolded and spurned by her father and stepmother if she back.
She had an important thing to do today and couldn't wait to go out.
It was difficult to get out of Nangong’s mansion and she directly asked Wang to send her to the most famous Hong En Hospital in C City.
She knew that Vivian Bai was in the burn unit of this hospital. Although Vivian had treated her badly since she was a child, she was her sister after all, and she also hoped her sister recovered.
As soon as the car was stopped, she stepped into the inpatient department and looked up Vivian's name at the nurse's desk, but she was informed that there was no record of her sister's admission.
Ivanka was doubted. Her father and stepmother told her that Vivian was burned by a fire and was in emergency treatment at Hong En Hospital. How could there be no record?
She returned to Bai’s mansion in a mind full of questions.
Jingping Bai and Yarong Ya had gone to the company, and the house was quiet. She stepped into the living room, faintly hearing someone was cutting vegetables in the kitchen, and she thought it should be Servant Li in the preparation of lunch.
